I am currently pregnant with our second child and there aren't many names that are standing out to me. We already have a daughter and I'd like her sibling's name to kind of compliment it or fit in with our 'scheme' if that makes sense. Her name is Caitlyn Isabel. Here is a list of names I like but haven't grown on me enough to LOVE yet.

girls-
Alyson or Allyson
Carly
Audrey
Stella
Madelyn
Elyza

Boys-
Dylan
Jason

You'll notice I also don't have a middle name but that's because i haven't chosen a first name and I like to see what goes along with them. Also I have very few boys names because I can't come up with any I really love. Any suggestions?
 
Caitlyn Isabel goes nicely with these names!

Other options:
Connor
Elias
Marcus

Margaret
Sofia
Susan
 
From your list I love Madelyn and Elyza and think they go really well with Caitlyn. The boys names are both nice too. More suggestions...

Holly
Emily
Alyssa
Annaliese

Christian
Ethan
Lucas
 
Audrey and Stella are my favs of your list, what about

Aubrey (like Audrey but a bit more modern)
Marilyn (keep with the lyn theme)
Caroline (Cait and Carrie sound cute together)
 
Erin Rebecca! (could be spelled Eryn if you like the y in there)

Don't know why it's just the first thing I thought!

Or Aaliyah/Aleah
 
I have a Katherine Isabelle! We call her Katie Belle. We also have a William Lee.

These are our future names to go with them:

Josephine Ariel
Vincent
Oliver
Theodore
Matilda Eleanore (Mattie Nora)
Juliet

And ty for the suggestions. They are beautiful but nothing is jumping out at me still....Who knows if this baby is going to have a name? lol Good thing I've got a bit of time yet
 
I'm in the same boat as you! My LO is Caitlyn and we found out yesterday we are having another girl. Nothing is jumping out at me plus I'm a teacher so lots of names are a big no no! Plus I don't want the same initial as me,DH or LO!
 
Jason is a good choice :winkwink: :haha:

I like for boys...

Lucas
Elliot
Ethan
Caleb

And for girls...

Isabella
Kaelyn (way too alike though!)
Laurie/Lori
 
From your lists I like: Allyson, Carly, Madelyn, & Dylan

Addtl suggestions:

Caitlyn &

Calista (means "most beautiful")
Chiara (pronounced like Kiara)
Caydence/Kaydence
Marissa
Alyssa
Layla
Samantha
Natalie

Austin
Evan
Zachary
Carson
Cameron
Corey
Cody
Nicholas
 
I'm not a fan of swapping I for y but here's some more names where you could do that or already have a y:

Elyzabeth
Freddy
Lucy

I also think these names go well with Caitlyn:

Grace
Lucas
Hannah
Georgia
Alice
Jack
Jacob
Ryan
 
Cecilia
Charlotte
I have to second the Clara suggestion
Caylee (Caelie)
Caterina or Catalina
Camille
Charis
Cherie
Charisse

Boys
Cael
Cadence (could be unisex, just more male to me)
Camden
Calvin
Carson
Carter
Chandler

You know I could have this conversation all day, we'll have to talk later about if yall like any of these. Let me know if any of these are headed in the right direction :)
 
If our first two had been girls they would have been Isabella and Caitlin but we got two boys. Their names are:

Kyle
Rhys

If either if them jump out at you? I also like the name caleb which goes well with Caitlin too.
 
The biggest issue I'm having is that we have a very large family and a lot of these are taken. Others just aren't jumping out at me or I can't imagine myself using the name everyday for the rest of my life, sorta thing. I'm still working on it and still up for more suggestions. One of these times something is bound to really get my attention. Thanks everybody :thumbup: Keep em coming!
