Just for fun...names

Since we are all on here for the same reasons, and obviously we all want children, I thought it might be fun to discuss baby names. Can we do that on here? (Sorry if it's not allowed...just trying to spark up a fun conversation that's baby-related but not all about menstruation and fertility drugs...LOL)

Anyway, I have one daughter named Saara, and I have always had a preference for more old-fashioned names, personally. Lately, they've been making a comeback, though, and I like to steer clear of things that are too common (hence why my daughter is named Saara, pronounced S-AAAAAH-ra, and not SARA, pronounced S-AIR-ah). My ex-husband and I chose that name for her because he is Saudi, and we wanted an Arab name that was not too weird in the USA. :) Plus it means "gift from God" or "princess", depending on the translation, which is what she is! LOL

My husband and I have been talking baby names ever since we got married. Our favorites seem to change a lot, but lately we have been partial to Molly Rebecca or Addison Artemis for girl names and Tristan Asher or Felix David for boy names.

So what about you? Any thoughts on what you'd like to name your possible future children? :)

    My children's names are mostly for people who are THE most important people in my life:

    My son WILL be Robert Mark Alexander...

    Robert is for my mom, Roberta...

    Mark is for the man in my life who has put up with more in his life than most men EVER should have to and he's survived it all...

    Alexander is for me and my dad, Alex, who's at home with Jesus now.

    My daughter WILL be Jordyn Roberta Alexis...

    Jordyn is a version of Jordan that I've always liked

    and you already know Roberta and Alexis!! :-)
