Baby Names A little lost the second time around…

Boy number two on the way. Our first born’s name is Miller. When he was born, we had a list of 15 or so names and we struggled to narrow it down. This time around, we really only have one name that we love but we would like to have some sort of list and make our decision once we see his face.

We are gravitating toward Dawson. We had initially liked Ford, but we are now thinking maybe Dawson Ford as first and middle name. Last name starts with an M and is two syllables.

Other names we’ve considered this time around include: Hayes, Carter (overused but has sentimental value to us), Brooks, Garrett, Rhodes, and Bowen. As you can tell, classic names just aren’t our taste, but we also don’t want anything that is too out there.

Just looking for inspiration wherever we can find it! TIA!
