names, names, names

I am so frustrated with trying to pick out a beautiful name for this wonderful addition to our family. I mean certainly it is fun at first, but I just don't have the personality for it.
I can barely decide what I want to eat off the menu when the waitress comes by (for the fourth time). There are just too many good things to choose from and I am just too horribly indecisive.
But when it comes to picking out the name of my own child that I will love the rest of my life, I might as well give up. You might be thinking, "don't stress you still have 100 days, thats plenty of time". But I've been thinking about names for months and the list hasn't gotten any shorter it hasn't even gotten any longer, it hasn't even stayed the same. It is conitinually morphing like it has a life of its own. And where is Jared in all this, well he's "fine" with any of the names we've picked out. Does that mean he's excited about any of the names, NO. He's completely unreadable.
Anyway new to the list

  1. You sound frustrated!!! I like Emmilyn a lot! In fact, I think it's my favorite so far. It is kind of like Emmaline, but I think it is a softer sounding name. Pretty...and Emmi is such a cute nickname. Love ya, Kelly!

  2. I am so grateful that I am not the only one who is so indecisive. How did we ever survive making decisions together for those few months?

    I struggled too to name Milo. We had three names picked out and we waited until we saw him. We thought that would help, which it did until after he had his first bath and then we changed our mind again. Man, I forgot how hard that was. I think all the names you like are great. Good luck. I like Emmi.

  3. You know there is always Evangeline or Evangelina (Eva for a nickname). Those are fun ones, lol. I completely understand how hard it is to pick out a name. My little Ella, had four different names and I didn't even think of the name Ella until I physically saw her, lol.
