    Guinn and Willow, Keegan and Zion. I'm all for "unique" names, and even into the realm of "unusual" names. But, speaking from the experience of having and unusual and hard to pronounce name, (Linnea = Lynn-AY-Ah), it can be hell. People never remember what you're called, and can never read or spell it correctly. That's really hard when you're a kid...

    Girl:Audrey,Quinn,Samara,Willow.
    Boy:Lennon,Rory,Zane.

    I think it's a good idea to wait until you meet your child before you give him or her a name.

    yeah, i wanted to add that to my post about waiting till you see the babe. Have a few good ones you like then wait till the birth. We wanted to name dd Austyn, but she just wasn't an Austyn...Leane was supposed to be one of her middle names, but I just bumped it up to first....sadily, i'm thinking now that Emily or Mkalie (mk-ah-lhee) would have suited her better....but leane still works. So don't be in a rush to name the babes, either! I said her name the minute I saw her.

    my baby's name came to me in meditation one day when I was only 3 months pregnant or so and I just knew it had to be her name. I've never heard of the name Abren before. it came to me as Abren, but I let Axyn change the e to y. He wanted it to be like his name ;). and I let him pick out the name Rae. It was the first one he thought of and it was perfect.

    I've tried looking up the name Abren everywhere, but I can't find it. It was like a spiritual thing for me, Abren, boy or girl, was just the only name. (now Abryn of course. :))

    There's a male actor who was fairly famous in the late 1980s early 1990s called Blair Underwood. He was in LA Law, the short lived series about LAX that was on in the US a year or 2 ago (with Heather Locklear I think) and a couple of films (one with Sean Connery I think).

    Incidentally, I wouldn't pick a name that looks like it's spelt wrong (Nickollette and Damean), but then Im just a snob. Oh and Reagan has put me off as I tend to think of it as the name of the girl in The Exorcist. The same thing goes with Quinn. I think of Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman (or whatever it was called).

    just my 2 cents... please please please DO NOT name a girl Reagan. My partner's name is Regan and we cringe whenever we hear it as a girls name. It traditionally means "little king"
