Hey there :)

Caden was one of our names but its so popular now we went off it.

Rhiannon was a name my little brother wanted us to consider :) but not my cup of tea.

Do all your names sound ok with your surname or boyfriends surname??

Ineedsomesleep · 24/11/2010 14:43

Summer, Kaiden/Kayden/Cayden is very popular at the moment and I think it might date very quickly. From your boys I probably would choose Aston as Astin looks a bit made up. Well as long as his last name won't be Martin that is Grin

Would probably choose Rhiannon from your girls list as I love the meaning of the name.

Summertime92 · 24/11/2010 17:18

well my boyfriends surnames Clarke so i was worried about Kaiden sounding too rhyming :)

i like ashton from your listSmile...
im afraid i dont like any of the others,sorry

Ineedsomesleep · 25/11/2010 07:40

Kaiden Clarke is alliteration, and I'll probably get flamed but I'm not a fan of alliteration in names but I know some people really like it.

Are you sure you are going to give the baby your boyfriend's last name and not yours?

MelinaM · 25/11/2010 23:07

Ashton is the best from your list, Kaiden VERY popular at the mo!

Rhiannon is OK but I really don't like the other names.

Summertime92 · 25/11/2010 23:21

well my last name is already hyphenated and more than two surnames sounds silly. so we decided we give the baby his last name :)

If you want something unusual and unique then go for John or Jane. You never meet a child with those names these days!

Aston is quite nice.
Rhiannon is not my personal cup of tea, but there is nothing wrong with it :)

How about:
Logan
Reece
Carter

Ruby
Caitlyn
Savannah

?

Good luck deciding - it's fun!

Psammead · 26/11/2010 08:43

Oh, I forgot to say - there is a website called Nymbler where you type in names you like and ot comes up with others in your naming style. Hope that helps!

MouldyMoldie · 26/11/2010 08:43

Rhiannon is nice but the rest are a bit Britney Spears, sorry.

ShoppingDays · 26/11/2010 09:41

Ashton and Rhiannon.

Summertime92 · 26/11/2010 10:07

Psammead, i love Nymbler! im considering reece but i like the welsh spelling (Rhys) more, Carters one of my surnames so im not too sure on it but i've always liked it. logans a pretty cool name aswell!

Aston with an O

and Rhiannon.

Caiden and Cheyenne are way too American (and Brittney Spearsish American too, agree MouldyMoldie)

Rhys, Reese or Reece are nice. As is Logan.

My DS's middle name is River... DH chose it as he wanted something funky/trendy...?! I love it now and it really suits him. Good luck :)
