The Name Game

We have finally decided on a boy and girl name! Middle names? Don't push it. :) We are not shy about sharing the names. I know a lot of people don't like to disclose. So if you don't like them, get used to them before May!!!

Austyn is still the girl name. That one was easy to agree on quickly. I had liked some other names that Brett was just not into (like Julia or Ava). He didn't really have any suggestions after we discussed Austyn. This was a good choice for us for a couple of reasons. First, we both have cousins with the same name (both boys). One is spelled Austin and the other is Austen. We chose Austyn so that it is a little more feminine and different than each. Second, we love the city and have many great and fun memories from visiting. Thanks for moving there Mark, Becky, and Chris!

It took us a long time to agree on a boy name. We had come up with a few that we agreed on... Gavin, Damon, and Devin. But none were really "the name." Brett liked Jacoby which I hated. And I liked Carter and Kyler which Brett wasn't a huge fan of. After discussing the names with some old college friends, we finally decided that Kyler was it. Thanks Uncle Sadler! ;)

So now little Austyn or Kyler needs a middle name, which won't be nearly as stressful. We though about using Gavin as a middle name for a boy, but that gives us KGB as initials. Guess we'll have to keep thinking...
