So I had my ultrasound and it is a boy. I am kinda nervous anyways, but I am so lost on boy names. I have about a billion girl names that I LOVE but no boy names that I adore. I have a DD named Claire Corinne that I would love a name to fit with. So far some thoughts have been:

Noah - (My inlaws don't seem to love this one)
Logan - (My dad doesn't seem to like this one)
Nolan - (hasn't been run by anyone other than DH and I)
Lucas - (I fear, "LUKE! I am your father!")
Chase - (My husband doesn't love this one)
James - (My dad and inlaws don't seem to like this one)
Paul - (Will probably be the middle name, not sure if I like or not for first name)

Like I said, I am not attached to any of these names, they are just names I don't really dislike. I love that Claire is old fashioned but still beautiful and classy and that it sounds cute on a baby yet still sophisticated enough for an adult. So that is kind of what I am looking for in a boy name. I wish I could name him Henry, but that is the dog's name

The middle name will either be Paul (my dad's name) or Hansen (family name on my DH's side)

Suggestions or opinions would be appreciated!

I looked through a million names for my son, and the only thing that helped was what some nurses told me. (I was in the hospital a lot). Wait until he's born and you'll know what he looks like. I had a few names in the back of my mind, I wasnt really fond of one more than any other. After he was born i knew!

What about Carter? That is one of the boy names that DH and I have picked out if we ever have a boy, and I am always willing to share, especially with those that I don't know, haha!!! I think that it is a very classic name that is cute on a little boy but sophisticated on a man!
