Daughter=Sylvia. Yes old name, it's my mom's name.
Son=Charles Allen. Charles for my father, Allen for my child's father.

I know you're probably not on GC anymore, but one of my friends named her kids Charlie and Sylvia!

For me:
Girl: Jane Catherine. I always like the name Jane. There are lots of famous Janes in film/literature, and Catherine is my paternal grandmother's name.
Boy: Sidney. After Sidney Crosby.

I love thinking of kids names, here are a few of my favorites.

First of I really want twins (a boy and a girl)
Eli Peyton (no I'm not Manning brothers obsessed I love the name Eli and Peyton is a family name)
Emma Leigh or Emma Grace

I also love the name Bayli or Bailey, Riley,Claire, and Hillary, Brooklyn for girls.

For boys Ethan, Tristan, Tucker, Seth.

I want my children to have names with family history so that I can use their names to educate them about the legacies of their family members.

Daughter: Sophia Michelle, Adina Dee
Son: Christopher James, Virgil Benjamin

For a girl - Grace

For a boy - Patrick

I am hoping and praying I get to use each, but it is not my decision.

[OHNOITSJESS]

Girl - Katherine Grace

Boy- Mr. OHNO's Dads Name with Samuel as a Middle name

[jdrama]

Girl- Geneva Marie (Geneva is my moms name and I promised her a name sake)

Boy-Malachi (don't know a middle name yet but I love that name)

[SWEET n Looo]

I know two Malachi's (I love that name) one's middle name is Justin and the other is Amir

I also love the name Genevieve.

For the women, would anyone consider naming their daughter after themselves, like a junior or a II? If yes, why? If no, why not?

I wouldn't but I wouldn't name a son Jr or II either.

Wow, that really made me stop and think. I know so many men named after their fathers, but I can't think of a single woman I know who is named after her mother.

As to the question I like William Joseph for a boy, and Eleanor for a girl.

Absolutely not. But then again, I would also NEVER name my son after my husband. It's like you can't think of anything else to name your kid. Your child is his/her own person. Give him/her a his/her own first name. If you would like to honor someone, the middle name is the place to do it. Too much confusion, identity crises.

[nittanygirl]

Girl - Emily or Madeline (Maddie)
Boy - Brandon or Braden w/Michael as a middle name

[SMTTT]

I always like the not-so girl names for girls; Ryan, Alex, Peyton

For boys I like Damon, Bryson, David, or Eli

And yes, I will admit that I'm a Manning fan
