    Default It's A Boy...

    Well, my wife had her 20 week ultrasound this week, and we found out it's going to be BOY!

    Everything looked good, very healthy!

    Now, its time to pick a name. Any suggestions...feel free to brainstorm

    Congratulations. We'll wait a day or so for the sarcasm in name suggestions to begin.

    You should name him Glock. Middle name Hunter.

    Thanks for all the replys. Right now we are thinking about Noah, but I really like the suggestions of Ian and Ole. Keep the suggestions flowing though.
    Here are a couple of others we've been kicking around
    Joseph
    Zeke
    Jonah
    Jedediah
    William
    Ivan
    Virgil (my favorite...wife hates it)
    Anyway...get the suggestions rolling people

    A name I hear little of these days is Otto! I always liked that name!

    Sherly or Sue or Mary! He will grow up strong and able but when he reaches 21 your asp is grass.

    Now for the suprize! Triplets!

    Congrats!

    Congratulations on the future outdoors companion. You could name him Marion Morrison... Maybe people will call him "The Duke". I always liked that guy.

    Of course you could name him after your father or grandfather. Keep a family name going and pay respect to a former teacher (hopefully).

    My Dad's name is Buck- he said "Don't do that to a kid" LOL when his name was suggested. My father-in-law is John...he doesn't like it, because there are so many John's. Joseph and Virgil both are family/grandparent names...

    Congrats and rest up before the sleepless nights begin...may I suggest that if you choose a slightly "different" first name, to consider equipping the kid with a totally normal middle name, in case he doesn't like being called Virgil either (I'm with your wife on that one). Friends of ours called their son Kier Nakina. If Joe or Peter is the middle name, it might save you one battle in the teenage years.
    How about Silas, one of our dogs has that name. Or look through the screennames here, isn't there some good ones??

    I understand the whole "family tradition" thing, but my wife and I both feel that a kid should have it's own name, not some monicker that's been passed down and reused over and over again.
