So we're pretty sure (at least for now.) the first name is Oliver.

Husb wants Linus and or Barnaby. Which is less awful? I realize they are not for everyone. It's ok if you say both are really bad.

I don't think Barnaby is awful at all. I love it.

Actually I love linus too, just not with Oliver.

Doh! well, that's helpful! LMAO. He'd sure love you. He wants Either Linus Barnaby or Barnaby Linus.   I know I'm really picky, but I've met my match with him this time.

I love the name Oliver- but I don't like Barnaby; and I agree with the other mama that Linus is awesome, but not with Oliver.

Linus Theodore? Theodore Linus?
Meh, Linus is hard to match up!

My SIL ruined Theodore for me. I absolutely LOVED it, but she has a knack for saying just the right thing for me to hate a name.

They are cute, and not bad names... But I personally am way too picky and would not chose them. I hope you two come to a conclusion and pick a name that you both like

Awww. I honestly LOVE that name. I've been stuck on it for awhile.

I was too. Hubs likes it over Oliver, but It just doesn't feel right and my SIL will tease him horribly.

I like Rhys as a first name, but that's been nixed and he'll only use it as a middle, if he gets first name pick.
I'm not naming my son Barnaby Rhys. LOL

I don't like either with Oliver. I'm with you, I like River. I would love to name this baby River, but dh says no. If he was a girl he would have been Evangeline Claire and we'd be set. But no, for now I have a nameless baby boy that I call Roo and I'm due in 18 days.

men shouldn't have a say LOL especially when they don't agree with US ;) J/K

Lol. I keep telling him that technically since I fill out the paperwork, I can put whatever name I want. I wouldn't do that to him though. I love him or something.

Oh my... Linus at least reminds me of Charlie Brown. Baranby is just... no.

i'm sure when you see him you'll figure it out

That's what I'm going with for now.

Honestly I'd go with Oliver Rhys or Oliver Sagan (for Carl Sagan) but Hubs doesn't really like those either.

The problem is I don't really like boys names. I only have 10-12 I consider useable and a good number of them have been veto'd or my SIL has ruined them.
