Boy Baby names:

Knox
Braxton
Connor
Ollie
Pacey
Carter
Jacolby
Tate
Memphis Rein (guilty pleasure name :p)
Brady
Grayson
Bentley



Baby girl names:

Corra (Coralie)
Ellie
Suri
Dannielyn
Demi
Brielle
Nora
Constance
Jocelyn
Kennedy
Bristol
Maelie


For a boy...the names are down to these names but anything can change:

Knox
Connor
Ollie
Pacey


And as for a girl, the only names we like enough to even possibly use is:

Suri and Ellie.


Suri is in the running and tho I know people will say We got this name from Tom cruise daughter..It really doesn't bother Us. We are very drawn to this name and love this name a lot! Many people find there names through actors so I don't see why us using this name should matter.

As for boys names...I'm really drawn to the name Knox and Pacey. Knox is not a name I would typically go for so it's even odd for me to like it. However, I don't think we will end up using either name, as much as I would love to...I have a feeling if we have a boy..we are going to end up using the name Connor.

Which names do you like on our list? Feel free to add some too if you like...we are always up for ideas!!!
 
I personally go for more traditional names. Although I love grayson. And Connor. I have thought about Tristan, and Collin. And my favorite is rylan. I have a hard time with girl names! Ellie would have to be my favorite from ur list. But IV thought about adalyn,Aubrey, and thts about as far as IV got :) good luck tho!
 
Connor and Grayson are really cute for the boy names! I like Dannilyn for the girl name. :)
 
Boy Baby names:

Knox (interesting very modern sounding)
Braxton (personally i dont like, just think of braxton hicks)
Connor (not my taste but my friend has a little boy with this name)
Ollie (becoming common, i also have a friend with a child called this)
Pacey (not sure on this, sounds a bit nickname-y)
Carter (good for an rich old man but i cant imagine a little boy with the name)
Jacolby (interesting, my sort of name :) but i think i prefer Jacobi)
Tate (makes me thing of wrestlers for some reason)
Memphis Rein (really quite like this)
Brady (ok, still sounds a little nickname-y like a short hand for something longer)
Grayson (ok but not my taste)
Bentley (i just automatically think of the car)


Baby girl names:

Corra - Coralie (quite cute)
Ellie (i used to like this but date a guy with the name so cant use it, very popular now)
Suri (tom cruise - thats all she will ever get)
Dannielyn (looks made up to me Dannie-lynn might work better)
Demi (ok but not my taste)
Brielle (personally dont like this one)
Nora (sounds quite old to me)
Constance (not keen as i know a stripper by this name)
Jocelyn (a bit old fashioned)
Kennedy (actually quite like this with Kenna as a nickname)
Bristol (just think of the place)
Maelie (is this may-lee?)

I like these -

BOY:
Jacolby
Memphis rein

GIRL:
Kennedy
Coralie
 
I adore for the boy names:
Knox
Braxton
Bently

and the girl names:
Dannielyn
Bristol

The name Suri just makes me think of Siri on iPhone lol. (No offense to your taste in names though!)
 
I like Pacey and Tate from your boys list. From the girls I like Ellie and I do really like Suri, but I think this will always be associated with Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes' daughter. If it doesn't bother you and you don't think it will affect her then go for it :flower:
 
Thanks everyone for taking the time to go through my list! Some of the names on the list are not names I would actually use but it's on my list anyway because I'm drawn to them one way or the other. To decide on one final name is actually extremely hard. No name ever seems good enough or I worry that we will agree on a name..use it, then I will regret it and wish I chose something else!

Thanks for taking the time to do this!!
 
From your lists I like:

Ollie

and

Suri
Nora...:cloud9: (prefer the spelling Norah though)
Maelie


:flower:
 
I love Knox! Never heard of it before but it just sounds lovely. Might be a love it or hate it name though
 
I love Memphis Rein. Are you a Gone in 60 Seconds fan by any chance?

I too think of Braxton Hicks when I hear that name.
Pacey is ok but it makes me think of the Dawson's Creek character.
Connor is also the name of one of Tom Cruises kids but no one really associates it with him so if you like Suri, go for it.

Someone will have a reason not to use any name, so go with what you like :)
 
Ollie for the boys, and Ellie for the girls (biased here though, as DD is Ellie ) :haha:

I would have picked Ollie and Ellie too, but Im biased cos I have an Ollie :haha: lol, good taste we have lady, good taste :winkwink: lol x
 
Knox - not a fan...can just picture him being ridiculed in school
Braxton - Braxton hicks...not a fan
Connor - not bad.
Ollie - Would prefer Oliver w/ Ollie as nn
Pacey - Sounds made up, not a fan
Carter - Love! Karter would look cool too
Jacolby - Not a fan...Jacob Colby could work
Tate - Not a fan
Memphis Rein (guilty pleasure name ) - Like it
Brady - Not my taste. Prefer Bradley or Brayden
Grayson - Popular, but not my taste - Sounds feminine: Gracelyn
Bentley - Really like


Corra (Coralie) - Not my taste, but not bad
Ellie - Nice nn but would name her something like Elaine, Ella, Elora, etc so that when she becomes older it will sound more professional
Suri - It's okay. I wouldn't particularly use it, but that's just because it's not my taste. I don't think the celebrity connection is all that big of a deal
Dannielyn - Love it! Very unique
Demi - I associate this more with Demi Moore than I associate Suri with Tom Cruise. Not a fan.
Brielle - Love it, but would suggest Gabrielle with Brielle as nn
Nora - Love it but prefer Norah spelling
Constance - Not a fan
Jocelyn - I prefer Joselyn better with nn Josie :)
Kennedy - It's okay.
Bristol - Not a fan, doesn't seem feminine enough
Maelie - Undecided...I like how it would sound (I'm assuming May-lee) but it doesn't look appealing to me, if that makes sense. I'd play around with spelling ideas such as Maylei, Mae-Lee, Maeleigh, Mayleigh, etc.


I like how you like more unique names :) My favorites from your lists would be:
:blue: Karter/Carter & Bentley
:pink: Dannielyn & Norah/Nora
 
I gave all of your names a rating based on a scale of 1-10 (10 being the best). ;)

5 Connor - too common
4 Ollie - makes me want to say "olly olly oxen free!"
2 Pacey - eh I don't know, just don't like it
10 Carter - my favorite boy name ever
7 Jacolby - neat and different
4 Tate - seems girly to me
0 Memphis Rein - oh come on :p
7 Brady - like it
8 Grayson - like it
4 Bentley - reminds me of a car


Baby girl names:
10 Corra (Coralie)
7 Ellie - I like this better as a nick name rather than formal name, might be my little girl's nick name (her name will be Elora)
9 Suri
6 Dannielyn
8 Demi
6 Brielle
8 Nora
5 Constance
7 Jocelyn - I love this name but it has become too popular for my taste
