1. no overly popular name (but I do want a classic name)
2. no strange or bizarre sounding name
3. prefer a bible name
4. a name that has a special meaning
My friend sent me to the Social Security Website which lists the most popular names given. I knew I wanted to stay away from the top ten names.
Two names I've been thinking about were on the top ten list Hannah for a girl and Daniel for a boy, I had no idea those names were so popular, I must have good taste. I haven't seen Hannah or Daniel as common names in school classrooms at work, but than again the names on this list are names given to kids that are just now entering school. Both names have been shot down by my hubby and now after seeing them on the top ten list I guess those names weren't mean to be.
The baby name search continues on....

I don't know about names but I wanted to stop by and say CONGRATULATIONS!!! It's about time. But now you gotta find your way back here so we get to see the sweet little dumplin when he/she arrives. I miss you guys. At least getting to read your blogs makes me smile and feel like you're not as far away as you are.
Love you,

In my family, my mom named all her kids with biblical first names and family middle names.
What about Caleb and Abigail? Classic, biblical, noble... just a thought. Good luck choosing! What a wonderful problem to have, right? :-)
Congratulations, Rachel! I was so excited when your mom told me the great news. Picking names is tough, but fun. Both of my girls names came in such special ways. I can't wait to hear what you both decide. I also hope that we will get to see you sometime before the baby comes... I am sure you will look adorable. We will be praying for you.

Congratulations! I came across your site a few weeks ago and enjoy checking out your menu plans. I also just found out that I'm expecting and I'm about 5 weeks along. We are already working on a baby name list as well. Look forward to reading more baby posts!
