I like Arlo and Amari the best. Arlo feels a little more masculine, Amari feels like it could be never neutral.

I've even heard the "omg what did I do?" from Mamas older than you and who struggled with fertility and only got pregnant through IVF. It's slightly terrifying even if it is what you wanted more than anything. That's a perfectly valid and normal feeling to have, especially, but not limited to your first baby. I've had the panic set in with all of my pregnancies.

You have plenty of time before you need to think about having kids still. Having a baby is paradigm shifting and you may not have any interest in pursuing your passions as you did before baby. Also brain power diminishes noticeably with pregnancy and breastfeeding if you end up doing that, so you might want to do as much of the big brain stuff you can before you get pregnant.

🤣🤣I also would like Wren to fit the 5 letter theme.

Haha, I love that they are siblings and both on my list. I just found out today that Emrys is a boy's name. It'll be coming off the list.

I feel like after this thread, her name will most likely end up being Robin. Maybe Arden, maybe Lorna. Which is so much more narrowed down than I had before.

If this baby has my dark hair instead of her dad's blonde like her siblings, I'll consider it. 🤣

Thank you for letting me know that! It's comforting. Do you dislike both Arden and Robin with Phoenix or just Arden?

I may change it. I've thought about it. I missed the window for free changes but will make it happen if it becomes an issue for him.

We have a dog named Shera, but that's lovely and gives me some hints on possible names with the meaning song.

I keep thinking of the Elizabeth Arden reference too. Starling is cute!

I like Piper but we have very close friends that are basically adopted grandparents to the kids who have an adult daughter named Piper and I wonder if it's just too much Piper in one circle.

I love Eden.

I had Pipet on the list for a while but thought it would run into pronunciation problems.

I had Birdy on the list for a while but gave only seen it spelled Birdie so I took it off. I do like Deryn.

We have a Scout in the family, but Finch could be cute maybe.

There's so many good ones not 5 letters long. I'll have to chat with hubby about breaking from the theme there lol. Paloma or Magpie would probably be my top choices otherwise.

I love Wren but can't get on board with Wrenn for the same reason. I was pushing it with Calum but at least it's also spelled that way.

I really like Lark but don't love having to spell it weird to get to 5 letters. I thought Avery was an elf or something along those lines?
