Thanks to everyone for your suggestions! There are a few that we haven't thought of, so we'll add them to our consideration. It doesn't necessarily need to be another 'M', as the second letter 'a' is more important. And you guessed it right. When I was pregnant with Marty I noticed that all our names (including our last name and my maiden name) have 'a' as the second letter. Had I not noticed it, we may have considered other names for future babies. But since I DID notice it, it became something I wanted to continue. It just happened to be that the name we liked was another 'M', but we did not set out to be all cutesy and matchy with our boys names. Thankfully, the references to "M & M" have been few and far between. :)
We're pretty set on a name for this boy, but won't be sharing it publicly until he arrives. I am still so very glad that we chose to learn the gender of this baby. It just makes things easier in so many ways.
I still haven't posted Max's birthday pictures! Bad me. I haven't even done our holiday pictures. I'm behind on a few holidays, actually. Hope you all like the slideshows, as I love to share all the pics and it's just so easy that way.
We're off to some friends for lunch, so I need to get organized pretty quick.
**Edited to add: I forgot to say that although there were a few requests for the name Malcolm, we won't be choosing that one, as it's my nephew's name. Keep 'em coming folks! We also figured out we can't do anything ending with an 's' sound, as it's really hard to say together with our last name.**
You're so cute.
ReplyDeleteThat's all I have to say, today.
Hey Rachel - I didn't realize you were having another boy. That's exciting that you found out! And I can see why knowing makes it easier for you guys.
ReplyDeleteI'm anxious to find out what baby boy #3's name is - but I'll be patient and wait :)
