I'm 33 weeks and it's taken a while to pull a short list together as DH keeps rejecting all the names I suggest! So it's a brother or sister for Jacob and our surname is a common one ending in 'son'.
Boys:
Charlie - my favourite, DH initially rejected but just this morning said he'd go with it if pushed (think that's the best I'm going to get!) Probably a bit popular although I only know 1 and Jacob's not exactly uncommon anyway so doesn't bother me too much. Think I would go for Charles but call him Charlie.
Elliott - DH and I both like although with slight reservations.
Sebastian - love Seb but not convinced on the full name.
Nathan - DH came up with this, quite like but can't get past the 90s associations.
Girls:
Erin - DH and I have both always liked this. DM thought it sounded too harsh (really should have learnt not to discuss names with her)
Niamh - a late contender, really like it and DH hasn't said no. We don't have Irish connections, does that matter?
Millie - very late contender as our DS said last night that if it was a girl he wanted to call it Millie (he has some wallpaper with a rabbit called Millie on). DS also told DMIL and she loved it. Not sure if it suits an adult though?
