Reality Check!!!

Wednesday night, we spent the evening in the hospital with contractions that were every three minutes apart. It kind of hit us that we are really not prepared for this baby. Ellie has been a great distractor for this pregnancy. Even though she is not due for another six weeks, so many things ran through my mind. Including that we have yet to find a double stroller, get Ellie moved to the other room, buy a car seat, and oh yeah, we HAVE NO NAME! We have always gone to the hospital with a couple names in mind that we really like, but nothing is sounding right. So here is where you come in. I need suggestions. Any suggestions will be very helpful. We have a few that my kids put on the list and and few that Nate hasn't totally said "no" to. So thanks to Mimi, she gave me this idea. We are going to have people help us with the naming process. But to make it a little interesting, we are going to throw in a little incentive. There is a surprise if we choose a name that you suggested. And you get the honor of helping us make this difficult decision. In a few days we will come up with a short list and do a poll to see what are the favorites. Thanks for your help!!!

  6. Girl names are the HARDEST! Glad I only had to name one, and she ended up with a boyish name, go figure! Good-Luck!

    Sorry I have no suggestions!

  8. I think you should name her Gracie or Faith. You know, "Faith precedes the miracle"? :-) Something else... Justyn. As in Justyn-Cason? Say it together, it will make you chuckle. I really do like Gracie though, it kind of goes with the theme that you have for your girls already, everyone's name ends with an "e" sound, well, except for Eve, but her name ends with an "e". Do I win? :-)

  9. You could use both names: Gracie Faith Cason, has a good ring to it.

  10. We always have a hard time coming up with names to, one girl name that I have really like latley is Ainsley.

  11. You must stay away from Kembrie or Cambrie or any variation... every third girl is named that right now.

    I like:
    Riley
    Celeste
    Camilla

    Good Luck!

  12. Since your three girls' names all end with the "ie" sound, I think you should continue it - even if it's just with a nickname.

    I think Sophie sounds the prettiest when you say them all together - Macy, Adrie, Ellie, Sophie.

    Sophie Joy Cason flows nice =)

    Thanks for saying hi on my blog - nice to have another heart mom for a friend!!

  13. Emma, Sophia, Madeline, Olivia, Lilly, Mia, Avery and Keira. These are just a few from my list of favorites. I sure do love you guys and am so glad that things are going well! I pray for you constantly.

  14. Becca,
    You have so much on your plate! Five little girls...I should call you for the secret. Right now I think three little boys counts as having six kids :). Of course I have a list as long as my arm of girl's names I'll never use, but I always feel it's best to place a bet--giving you another list only adds to the confusion. So my favorite right now is....Claire.

    We will be cheering for you and your beautiful brood.

  16. Becca,

    Funny you would post this, I was actually thinking of girl names the other day (if we were ever to adopt and got a girl) I would like to continue the ee's at the end of my girls names which are Korntee and Whitnee so something like Britnee or a long those lines but my all time favorite girl name right now is MARNEE or you could spell it MARNI or MARNIE. I adore that name. Good Luck in the choices, looks like you have a lot to read through.

    I have not spoken with you in a while, I sure hope all is going well! Hope things can slow down for you soon.

  20. Ok... yay!

    I love the name Lucy... so cute!

    um...Mia... naturally ;-) You could have an Ellie and Mia sister combo.. it's the coolest!!

    I also like Millie- but that is a little too close to Ellie...

    I'll think some more. I still don't have a boy name- great huh?

  29. Nate and Becca,

    I have an awesome name for the baby. The name is Madison. Poppy Cason's middle name was Madison. Madison Cason has a nice ring to it.

  31. You don't know me but I am a heart mom too and am pregnant with our 2nd. Don't know if it's a boy or girl yet but a name I love but we will prob never use it is
    Alana
    Don't know if that meets your taste or not but you could call her Laney. I would name her Alana Jane and call her Laney Janey :) It means -peaceful; serene- and after all that you guys have gone through so far with Ellie you know this sweet little girl is going to be such a peaceful baby! Good luck with the name and with the new baby!

  32. I see you have a TON of ideas on here. How will you choose? Just a couple of my favorites, Samantha and Camrin.

    ReplyDelete
  33. My favorite names suggested are Lucy, Gracie, or Sophie. Those all go with your girl's names and are adorable! Good luck with everything. We will be up in Utah the last two weeks of April and we would love to see you!
