Name that baby!
We know that we're having a girl, but here is a list of boy names we were considering:

Benjamin
Landon
Asher
Hayden
Evan
Jackson

Here are girl names we like:

Grace
Madeline
Delaney
Olivia

I think the final decision is...

**Delaney Grace**

Like it? Hate it? What do you think?

I LOVE your choice of names! I only heard Delaney after I had Maegan or it would have made my short list. Grace is also one of my favorites. I am all about old names like Grace and Cora and Ruby!

Have a wonderful Easter!

Yeah Delaney!! Before I even saw that it was a final decision, I was so excited about that one on your list!

Beautiful! (And now that you have my approval, move along. Hahaha)

Love it!!

Personally I am not sure that we have made a final decision. I am pulling for Delaney Olivia. Our other kids have middle names that begin with a vowel, as do I, I want to uphold tradition. Of course I was also pulling for Delaney Olivia Grace Coggin so her friends could call her "DOG", how cool would that be.

well, I choose names based on people I have met. That is why I hate the name Steve, Brian, Chris and Becky. BUT, I knew this girl named Delaney and she is like 6 and she is the CUTEST little thing in Ozark! So, I LOVE the name Delaney! And the name Grace is just beautiful, so I think you have a winner!
I love it!

ps.. this is Lucy.. blogger is being an A-HOLE and I cannot sign in for some reason!!!!! Hugs to you!
pss.. Im not with Seth.. Olivia reminds me of Olive Oil from Popeye..
psss. please still like me Seth, I am a nice girl... but what about Autumn... that starts with a vowel.. and its not an "O"... names shouldnt start with O's... that is crazy.
lol.

Well...I am hoping that you don't go with Delaney, because that was on my list for a (way-in-the-future) baby girl. I love that name. Except, it probably won't work for us anyway because now his dad & step-mom have a cat named Delaney. And, since we (and by that I mean Jeff) aren't considering children as of now, I guess it's fair game in the baby-name wars.
I think it's awesome. If you say "Delaney Grace" it rolls off the tounge much smoother than "Delaney Olivia" (that's just a mouth full). But it's your choice and they are both great names. Remember - you still have time to change it!

I think Delaney Grace and Delaney Olivia are absolutely adorable. You can't go wrong. If you go with Delaney Olivia Coggin, her initials might not be as cool as DOG, but they'd be DOC and maybe she'd become one. :)

Blogger Frema said...

What about a compromise: Grace Olivia? Delaney is cute, too, though.

You are a brave woman to ask the Internet its opinions on the name of your future child!

I love your final choice, it's beautiful! I have always liked the name Grace and plan on using it as a middle name if/when I ever have a girl! I'm so happy for you that your pregnancy is going well.

We were THIS close to using Grace as Eeyore's middle name until I got annoyed by all the celebrities using Grace for their kids names.

I love Delaney. Not heard that one in a while.

What do Laura and Garrett think?

"CPA MOM" (since blogger hates me)

Delaney Grace is great! Olivia doesn't flow. You are out voted Seth. Just kidding. I am sure whatever you choose it will be beautiful.

Blogger Amy W said...

I love it. Go with it!

Blogger Rachel (Crazy-Is) said...

I love it! It's very cute and those two names go well together. Also, Grace is Alyssa's middle name, so, of course, it's gorgeous!

Blogger Shawna said...

LOVE IT. No Grace for a first name-to over done these days (And Maddy and Olivia are as well). I went to the 2006 list and anything that made the top 10 was out. My husbands name is Jason and my sisters name is Amanda and so are half of our friends! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Delaney. Sounds cute and sweet and when she isn't you can call her D for short! ;0)

Blogger Silly Hily said...

I LOVE Delaney. I've never heard that name. Like Molly, I was going to pick that one before I saw that you already had. I love all of your names though. I'm staying out of the middle name business except to say that I think it should be a single syllable name.

Blogger Molly said...

Yes, that is perfect. You cannot go wrong with Grace.

Did you see who else is having a baby? Hint: I am going to be a grandma for the second time.

Blogger Emma in Canada said...

I like Delaney Grace, I agree with whoever said that Delaney Olivia doesn't flow. Is Laura's middle name Elizabeth?

Blogger Stacey said...

Yep...Laura's middle name is Elizabeth...how'd you know that? :) I must have said it at some point, or you have amazing ESP.

I love Grace.. but I am a little biased. lol

I love it!
