Alright, I presented the list to hubby tonight and we went over the names. Here is our lists of names we'll bring to the hospital (and we'll probably add/remove a few as the due date approaches:

GIRLS
Leone Mae
Annette (or Annie or Annabelle) Mae but with a nickname of Annie for sure
Hazel Hope
Samantha Mae (nn Sammie)
Mae as a first name, but haven't figured out a middle name

(May was my grandmother's middle name but I like the spelling Mae best. Hope is my other grandmother's middle name)

BOYS
Russel Buchanan (or Russel Laird)
James Laird
Dean Buchanan
Stone Buchanan

(Buchanan is a family name on my father's side and Laird is my father's name)

I'm not totally loving the boys names like I thought I would, so I think I need to find some more to toss around. Some of my favorites were not so loved by John so they were tossed out. I didn't think I would fall in love so much with the girls names, but I have. Now I really hope that I get a little Annie or Hazel! Ahh, the intoxication of finding a perfect name... This is the first time in the pregnancy that I really wish I knew what the gender was!

Yay you finally did it! At least yall have a few to agree on. We are still not getting any closer to naming this poor baby. I like that you are trying to keep some family names.

Good job, at least you have options now. You have a nice time to mull them all over.

I dont know how you're doing it not knowing the gender until delivery. I'd go nuts.

[daffneyc]

I love the name Dean. I think it's a strong name.

[Cassie.S]

Yay for having a list! You have a lot of cute choices there.

Mae is my middle name some I'm biased. I do love them all though!

[Megan30]

Beautiful names!

[gardenbelle]

Thanks ladies! I feel a little better having a good start to the list. I hope I can find some boys names to knock my socks off and get this curiosity out of my head.

[Punky.Brew]

Definitely cute names!!!

I LOVE Laird! I really like Stone, too!

The girl names are very retro, maybe a cool retro name search for the boys could get the creative juices flowing? Though you probably already did that. It's always hard to find a name when you don't love any of them.

[gardenbelle]

Thanks about Laird; it's my dad's name so it holds a special spot on my names list.
I know, I need to get some good Google keywords to search for some more. John nixed some of my faves, boo! Back to the drawing board for boys!

[MarlowesMum]

I love them all, Mary.
And who knows? You may even decide once you meet this little one that the perfect name has always been Maggie Mae.

What a great list! I'm not even going to bother saying which are my favorites, because I really love all of them.
