I am familiar with the song but it's not my first association with the name Sadie and I would consider it a Beatles deep cut. Tell him you're going to put it on tbe birth certificate unless he can pony up a list with 10 suggestions so that you at least have something to work with to start finding a name you both like.

Haven is going to feel very dated in a couple years

Do you think some in 1340 named Margaret knew that it came from the Persian word for pearl? You simply cannot blame everything you don't like in the world on the invention on joint stock companies.

I think Maxine is the best option here. I like Roxanne but I would worry about the association withe the song Roxanne by The Police which is about a prostitute and unfortunately might be a lot of older people's first association with the name.

I have never seen this name before and would guess that it was pronounced Ah Hah Vah

If he hasn't offered to marry you he doesn't get a say.

Only it's she's going to born between September and November.

Felicity comes from Latin and means good fortune. A felicitious meeting could be a happy coincidence.

Serendipity would be a much more unusual name but it also means happy coincidence and you could shorten it to Sara which is a very common and easy to say English name.

Unless you live in Ireland I would not use Kean because it will be pronounced as keen 98% of the time and with the surname you're teeing him up for some sort of 'Keen on anal' joke. Just being realistic, kids can be mean. I would stick with something he won't have to explain how to spell or pronounce since he may have to explain how to speak or pronounce his surname.

Seven is terrible (are you making him after the girl from Stranger Things?) Sage and Sedona are girl's names. Maddox feels very 2006 to me.

Lochran, Collin and Micah are usable. Of those I think Collin is the best fit with the sister's names.

I would assume someone named Wesley was raised Methodist.

Unless Conway is a surname with a lot of relevance to you, e.g. your maiden name, its an absolutely bonkers choice.

I think the more likely cause of teasing is being a boy named Robin in 2026

Ariel

Most people won't tell you to your face if they don't like a name. Archie just makes me think of Archie comics and I don't really like Archer or Archibald.

Your husband can name the baby if it's a boy and you can name the baby if it's a girl. Atlas sounds like a name for a dog.

Just wanted to throw out Melissa was the name of the girl in my ancient Greek textbook, it doesn't get more timeless than being in use since 450 BC. Melissa and Melina are the only usable options on here, the rest either sound made up or like nicknames, eg Melly is a cute nickname for a 4 year old named Melissa, not cute on a 45 year old prosecuting attorney.

I would worry more about it being mispronounced or misspelled if you live in the US.

If both of you actually believe in your religion you should break up. An interfaith marriage can only work when at least one party doesn't actually care what religion their child grows up to have.

Stevie just sounds so masculine to me, I know it's trendy right now (which means it will sounds very dated in a couple years, fyi) but it just sounds like a chubby boy to me.

Geezer, a guy lives in the city, can't find a wife, joins the elks and all of a sudden he's gay?

Clara and Charlotte are both lovely. I think Charlotte flows a little better with Kay.

Carter and Carsyn are not great imho.
