We have NO idea what to name this little one!!!
I just KNEW it was a boy because I had the hardest time thinking of boy names.
Ok, so if you want to help me, hereīs a few things:
- Origin: We would prefer a French name but it HAS to be pronounceable (sp?) in English. The baby will be French Canadian and DHīs last name is French but we donīt want to tie him down if ever he wants to move to any other province in Canada or the US... also for business reasons... anyways, just make sure you can pronounce it.
- No-noīs : We cannot use Mathieu/Matthew (which is the name I had picked) because we just realized thatīs Mateo in Spanish and thatīs my nephewīs name.
DH HATES Benjamin and dislikes Jeremie. We also cannot use Thomas (which we like) because thatīs what we named our dog 9 years ago and heīs still around. And lastly, I do not like names that are too biblical, like Noah
Other than that... GOOD LUCK finding anything!!! Blech.
We were kinda playing around with the idea of Ryan but maybe itīs too English? IDK... HELP!!!! Pretty please?

I do like Ryan, though (even though DH hates it).

Ryan's cute! I've always liked it. I love the name Gabriel (Gabe) but it know it's probably too biblical for you.
Love Sebastian and Nico too. Boy names are HARD!

Thanks so much for your suggestions!!
Gabriel was the last douche I dated before DH and we all worked together so the less I mention that name, the better
Iīm also thinking of Sebastien.
And this whole thing SUCKS because we really like Matthieu but my brother beat me to it!
Unless we can get away with it because one is Mateo and the other one would be Matthieu... but I donīt want my brother to think Iīm copying him
Gah!

I'm obviously a fan of Ryan as well.
Paul and Adrian come to my mind because half of my family is french and those are names that get reused a lot.
