There are however a few french names I just can't say right, like my MIL is Therese, I've never gotten it right in 15 years...so I just call her mom  |

Have you thought of a middle name yet? I know a little boy named Lachlan Dane and I think it sounds really nice. |

 Children: I have 2 boys, Duskin (4) and Kayden (1). Our daughter Sierra will be born in September! | Re: Name crisis | | First post! Woohoo!
We had our boys' names fairly quickly, but our girl was far harder.
Duskin is a mix of Dusk and Dustin. I liked the names Dustin and Justin but the names were too common. We were thinking of naming him just Dusk, but decided we didn't like that either. So Dusk + Dustin = Duskin!
Our second son, Kayden was a bit more challenging. We scoured the baby names websites and finally saw an old english name, "Kade" meaning "Knight, Shining armor." So we fiddled with the name a bit and came up with Kayden.
It wasn't until later we found out that Aiden, Caden, and Kaden were the top names for boys the year before!
I also like Seamus, Devin, and Tobin.
Good luck! |
