Ive had many suggestions thrown at me. I like a few, and love none.

Im of the opinion that when I hear THE name, I will know.

Am I doing it wrong? Do I just need to learn to love a name I currently just like?

I feel like ive seen and heard all the names that ever exist.

I let DH choose DS' name. Deal was he chose if boy and I chose if girl. No discussion beforehand. I found out DS' name on the operating table. Luckily I liked it. Personally I didn't feel the need to love the name before hand. It simply became his name and that was it.

First time couldn't decide and went with mums suggestion. That name suits her perfectly. For Dd2 searched high and low obsessively. Love the name but trying to get used to it. My problem is that I'm a name whore.

Think its different for every person, my daughters name I have loved since I was young and it just happened to be the name of the main character of mine and my husbands first date movie. Our sons name we went about it differently, decided we wanted a scottish name as dh is scottish. And went through lots of names I liked one, took dh a while to like it and now we love it.
