    We have three that we kind of narrowed down.

    Kinsley/Kensley (we are arguing about the spelling, I like it with the Kin, DH likes it Ken) -TOP NAME SO FAR
    Amelia
    Rylee/Riley

    Middle name is Reyne. I really like Kinsley Reyne but it only been our favorite for a couple weeks so DH wants to "keep thinking about other names"

    Owen is... OK... Main reason I like it though is because I like the way 'Nolan and Owen' sound together. I think it is adorable! I am having a hard time finding a middle name that I like with it though (and I can't help but think that a name with W would be cute cause than the initials would be O.W.L.)

    He got the name Phoebe from Charmed (which I used to watch religiously) and it was on the 'if its a girl' name list last time too. Still don't love it. He also liked Sage with me, but than reminded me that one of my cousins is named Sage

    Charmed I forgot about that show! I remember, I used to watch it!! A W middle name would be cute! I originally was trying to coordinate the name to sound good with Payton or start with a P but there are not that many options that also work with Reyne and our last name.....ugh.... names are hard.

    Dude I love ALL your names Christina. I am almost 75% sure we're going with Alex as the nickname no matter the gender.

    If it is a girl she has no name! I am terrified of wishing for a girl. I have 2 boys and I would love a girl, but I don't want to get my hopes up.

    We find out baby is a boy and the name we have chosen is Benjamin. We're working on a middle name now but I think we are going to go with Ender.

    You know, it just kinda stuck. We were talking names and DF started calling baby Alex. That's what happened with Maddy! She was baby Mattie/Maddy until we knew the gender and then we had to pick a name that shortened to Maddy

    I think a boy will definitely be easier. A girl would be torture

    After dinner with DH's family last night and the sugestions of a ton of names we hated We have narrowed it down to two names!!!!

    Kennedy Reyne
    Kensley Reyne

    We are unsure of the spelling of Kennedy. DH does not want to spell it like the President. We narrowed down the spelling today to Kenedy or Kenedee. Which spelling do y'all like better and then which name? Please!

    I like Kenedee for a girl personally! How do ya'll plan on pronouncing Reyne? I keep saying it like 'rain' in my head, but not sure if that is right!

    Kenedee is my favorite too! DH confirmed he liked it that way a lunch!
    "Renee" normal Ren-nae just with a different spelling. It is DH's mom's name! We used mine/my mom's middle name for Payton's middle name so we wanted to share the gesture with his mom. I was always confused on the spelling when we first got back together but now I love it. I never thought it might look like Rain to you guys!!

    Persephone and Ember were my top two baby girl names, hubs totally shot me down though. He did reconsider Penelope, which I also adore, so I am happy about that.

    I like Jaxon, I do, but I am worried it sounds too similar to Jackson. We'll see. Names are hard

    Stalking this room for your gender announcement . We are stuck on names, too. Ugh! My top two are Amelia and Annalise. My third favorite name is Paisley. DH is convinced we need to name her Chayah. I'm cool with it for a middle name, but I don't want to use it for a first name. My poor kid is never gonna have a name...

    Paisley is cute! I never thought about it as a name! DH is impossible when it comes to names, so I feel you
