name game

Now that we know the sweet little baby inside my belly is a little boy we need to find the perfect name for him!! One problem....there aren't very many boy names that we like! We had the girl names narrowed down but those of course won't work anymore so we were back at square one. So far we have narrowed it down to two different names.....Hayden and Hunter. I put up a new poll to see which one everyone else likes, not that the most popular one will "win" but just because I'm nosy like that!

Another problem, I'm not sure if I'm crazy in love with either name though and I keep going back and forth with which one I like better out of the two. Even though we still have 19ish weeks or less to figure it out I really don't want to wait until the day he is born to figure it out....guess that is the controlling/planner in me coming out because the sooner we can name him and stop calling him "the baby" the better! I have a feeling that one of those two names will be the final choice but I would love some other suggestions, you know just in case someone throws out a name that we haven't vetoed yet!

I think they're both cute for different reasons. I think Hunter flows better with Keegan, but I think Hayden goes better with your last name. :) Since I think his name should sound good standing alone I voted for Hayden in the poll - which I think is super cute!

These traditional names go well with Keegan and Pflueger, too!

Ethan
Matthew
Jacob
Christopher

BTW, I don't think I have been able to congratulate you yet. I gave the congrats to Keegan and grandma but not mom and dad! CONGRATS!!!! I can't wait to have another little boy cousin in our family that we can love and spoil :-) I know Keegan will be the best big brother and that those two little boys will take VERY good care of their mommy!

Okay back to the names...I like both that you have picked out but now that Adrien throws out Ethan...I really like that name! Happy name picking!

Meagan said...

Thanks Nicole!!

Its funny that you both like Ethan because that was my first pick & I really like it but Ryan is being difficult & doesn't like it! =/

Cassie said...

I have so many names that I couldn't use because of the whole C. Mudd thing...LOL! :)

I'm not going to tell you my favorite because I still like to think I might be able to use it one day, but Ethan has always been a top 10!! Top 10's have also included Lucas and Noah.

Not that I think Hayden is a girl name AT ALL....(cause I think it is totally a boys name) but I will say I have a friend who has 2 kids and their names are exactly: Hunter & Hayden. But Hayden is their girls name. Just thought I would throw that out there. But I love them both!

Happy Picking! Megan was 2 days old before we came up with a name for her. But my next girl I already have a named picked out whether Micah likes it or not! (cause he was the stubborn one and hated all the names I love, but I won on Megan anyway :))

p.s. another one of my friends kids name is Layden.....which is like Hayden :)

Meagan said...

Thanks for all of the ideas!!

I've never heard of a girl named Hayden before Angie, don't think that will stop us from using it for a boy though! It was so much easier when I was pregnant with Keegan because I knew that was going to be the name if he was a boy!

If I am having another boy, my husband is really really pushing Hunter. I go back and forth with it. And obviously I love the name Ethan!! I am really liking the name Owen for another boy though, I think its so cute! Happy name picking Meagan! :)

Sarah said...

Ethan was one of my top picks too. But the I realized when you yell ETHAN it doesn't really roll off the tounge. haha

I love simple names.. Max, Jack..

Hunter isn't a very popular name, so I love it!!

What will be his middle name?

Meagan said...

Good question!!! Not 100% sure yet but it will probably be Charles.

sblind2 said...

Ohhhh OK! This was my favorite part!

I'll throw the initials in there since Ryan has issues with his....not that initials are used all the time, but he could be in a wedding someday and they could put them on a cooler!!! LOL And also I'll think of nicknames that mean kids could tease him-I would NEVER tease him and nor would Brody, but some other kids are mean brats!!! =)

Ethan Charles Pflueger (ECP)....sounds very rich and masculine!!

Max Charles Pflueger (MCP) "max attack" (not so bad)

Jacob Charles Pflueger (JCP) umm, JcPennys are you OK with Jake or Jakey?

Elliot Charles Pflueger (ECP)

Liam Charles Pflueger (LCP)

Gavin Charles Pflueger (GCP)

That's all for now.... =)

Heather said...

OMG...I LOVE Liam!!!!

Meagan said...

Hahahaha!! He HATES his intials....and he DOES have a cooler with them on it!! For that reason I will not use a fisrt name with the letter P...they will be called PP!!

I'm thinking I need to push Ethan a little harder....he didn't like Keegan at first either! :)

Meagan said...

Me too Heather....however my husband didn't even know how to pronounce when he looked at it! Lol its kinda important he can say his own kid's name!

sblind2 said...

Yes, push Ethan Charles!! I love that together! "Keegan and Ethan or K & E Get over here right NOW!!" I think it flows....

....I know he has a cooler with them on it-how do you think I knew about his hatred :-P

Meagan said...

I realized that after I put it....it's funny that you mentioned it though because he used it the other day & I was totally making fun of him!!
