In an attempt to “test” out baby names, Eileen and I are using one name a day to see how it sounds. Bolded names are ones that we like a lot. The names that are struck out are names that neither Eileen and I liked for the baby. Got a good one for us to try? Enter it as a comment in this post. Thanks!

We are switching to a weekly name now. We have four names picked out as top contenders (in alphabetical order): Ethan, Evan, Jacob and Tyler.

  • Tyler (9/29/06 to 9/30/06)
  • Jacob (10/1/06 to 10/7/06)
  • Ethan (10/8/06 to 10/14/06)
  • Evan (10/15/06 to 10/16/06)
  • Tyler (10/16/06-10/21/06)

We’ve kind of struck Evan from the list.

After 10/21/06 we have picked a name for our baby. It is a secret until he is born! Come back to find out what his name is.

Jacob Tyler  :)  That’s Jacob’s name!
