You reserve the right to change it at any time, if you so choose :) I love both Finn (with or without an ending!) and Eli (I also love Elias). However, my opinion DOES NOT matter, and even if I hated the names and you loved them...I'd still love that cute little man!!! I think another thing that helped me choose names for baby#2 was to say the name with baby#1's name. Soo...which one do you prefer with Briar? Does one sound better to you, or roll off the tongue easier? Which feels more natural? If it's both, then maybe you already have a first or middle name for Mr. Ethiopia. :) you're the greatest!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17807872720212005497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3937676350409853562.post-35970410280896838582011-07-17T20:19:20.931-07:002011-07-17T20:19:20.931-07:00We changed Wyatt's name when we had him.

Whatever and whenever you decide for sure is up to you. :) I am so excited for you. I am hoping to make a trip down your way early January. Maybe we could do coffee?elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10866725476084387065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3937676350409853562.post-8211787887952044832011-07-13T20:39:47.410-07:002011-07-13T20:39:47.410-07:00I am already in love with baby Whitis #2....you sh...I am already in love with baby Whitis #2....you should be able to name him whatever you like! You will be the one saying it for the rest of your life! I am so happy to see his sweet face and hear how you are doing! We miss being able to experience your pregnancy with you! I got the ONE LESS shirts in the mail and LOVE them! I wore mine all day today!

Mostly it was because I was annoying with people's input - "oh you don't want to do that" or comments like that. With Finn, we shared his name, but I still felt the same about you - "what if we change it?!" But it's definitely your right to and just because you've said it out loud doesn't mean it's set in stone. Of course I'm biased and think Finn is a fabulous name :) But you just should go with what feels right for this little guy in your belly (who is super cute already!). Eli Finn, or like the comment above says, something totally different.Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00101380791416834049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3937676350409853562.post-12900174150315409302011-07-12T13:22:35.988-07:002011-07-12T13:22:35.988-07:00He is truly precious!

As for the name - all I can say is that you will know it when you first hold him....it may not even be Finn or Eli...it may be all together different!

The letters even hung on his nursery wall at some point. 2 weeks before delivery I changed my mind and he became "Blayd" and let me just say he is Blayd to a "T" and would have NEVER been a "Beau". Be patient and go with your instincts - no commitments now! :)KMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03483933259132174614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3937676350409853562.post-30616100834078382512011-07-12T10:34:17.610-07:002011-07-12T10:34:17.610-07:00I love both the names you've chosen, but I'...I love both the names you've chosen, but I'll just say that I think you should go with your gut feeling on what that baby "feels like" to you, even in the womb. Jude was actually the #2 name on our list most of my pregnancy but towards the end he just *felt* like a Jude, not sure why. That name had a chill, cool kinda vibe and he felt like that to me (but has been wild post-birth, lol). I know that's not real helpful but I think it's FINE to change your name choice, even at birth :) Just have one picked by the time you leave the hospital, haha.Liz Watersnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3937676350409853562.post-15857756422162068882011-07-12T05:23:58.662-07:002011-07-12T05:23:58.662-07:00Names are so difficult! I think whatever you choos...Names are so difficult! I think whatever you choose will be the absolutely perfect name. When I was pregnant with baby girl, we decided not to share the name with anyone. I'm so glad we went that route, because 2 weeks before she was born, we completely switched names. I mean completely! And we named her Scarlett. (Her original name was going to be Zahra)<br /><br />And when we adopted from Ethiopia, we told everyone that we would name our boy Khalil. When we got his referral, his given name is Nur, which I loved. But I already had told everyone Khalil! Then when I went to Ethiopia and saw everyone calling him Nur, I really struggled with changing that. I wish we wouldn't have told everyone his name cause I think we would have just kept Nur. <br /><br />Anyway. . . I completely understand your thought process, and that ultrasound is amazing. :)<br />Leah from Life According to Leah<br />(Some blogs are not letting me sign in)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3937676350409853562.post-83730188369286321512011-07-11T20:49:35.274-07:002011-07-11T20:49:35.274-07:00Names are hard... so final!

But just for the record, I think Finn is a good lawyer name. He is SO CUTE by the way...
