Baby Names

We have almost made a decision on what to name our son. This is such a big decision!

Our current first choice is Tyler James. My only concern is that Tyler is the 16th most popular name. I wonder if there will be 3 Tyler's in school with him and that will be an issue.

Our second choices are Charlie (name him Charles, call him Charlie) and Jackson, but we haven't picked out middle names for those. I have always loved these names but my husband suggested Tyler and it just felt right.

Any advice? My husband mentioned asking his mother before we chose a name. I told him I thought it was our decision and she will learn to like it, no matter what.

We googled Tyler James and no mass murders came up and his initials woud be TJM so that doesn't spell anything bad. Anything else that we need to think about?

Tyler James is such a nice name.....For our children, we used my fathers middle name for our son and my husbands mothers middle name for our daughter. Whatever you choose, I am sure that it will be just perfect for your son! :)

I love the name Tyler!!

I wanted it for my youngest - but hubby wasn't keen :angry:

We couldn't agree on a name until my Mum suggested Martin (with Tyler as a middle name ;) )

..But, I like Charlie as well!! :)

Tyler is a great name. Plus, if he really hates his name when he gets older, he will be able to go by TJ, that's cute too. So it's kind of win win. I love it.

I like Tyler also - I would definitely be calling him Ty for short though.....

I still am disappointed that I didn't get to name on of the twins Brady. I soooooo wanted my Brady. We knew we were naming one of them Daniel - after all, being Irish, we had to have our Danny Boy! But I wanted Brady for twin #2 and Terry wanted Connor, so what do we do? We let our oldest daughter decide! She picked Connor :angry:<_<<_<

Oh well.......

I like the names you have picked out. Definitely go with your "gut".

(the problem with asking someone like your m-i-l is that if you don't pick the name she likes.....;))

I like all of the names you are considering.

With our second, my husband and I couldn't choose between two names--we kept going between the two. Right after he was born, we looked at him, and both said--Matthew! :D

Whatever you decide, it will be the right choice :)

I like Tyler, but I then again I have one of my own. We call him Ty which is less common than Tyler. Love Charlie as well, and I sort of think Jacksons are gaining popularity. If he has to be one of 3 in class I'd rather him be a Tyler than a Jackson. Personally, we only know one other Tyler but he spells it Tylor.

My Ty is pictured on the left in my avatar.

I really think we are going to go with Tyler, and probably call him Ty at least some of the time. My husband is ok with me calling my belly Tyler now, so that is a good step in the right direction. Glad to see other people like the choice.

When my husband and I were choosing our son's name, we opened the back door and hollered each of the options out across the neighborhood. The one that sounded best is the one we chose.

The practical approach--I like that! :lol:

Tyler is a good name; not too trendy, can be pronounced without getting lessons on how to say it. Only drawback these days is names like Tyler could be a girl or a boy. I don't know if that matters to you I used to know a man named Robin and a girl named Robin. I don't know how I feel about that.

Also note to all MIL's who want to control the name: have your own baby and then you can name it youself. MYOB.

I think Tyler James is a fine name. So are Charles and Jackson. You really can't go wrong if you like the name, and it suits your baby. In terms of popularity...so what? I was one of three Michelles in my grade throughout elementary school. Not a problem. My youngest, Olivia, will be going to school with many Olivias (it was #8 the year she was born.)

Personally, I don't like sharing names with others, especially family, until the baby is born and named. There are too many opinions to the contrary. Picking a name is just too special to involve anyone but you and your immediate family (spouse & perhaps children.)

If we were going to have kids, we'd name our boys Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee.

Can you tell what region of the country we live in? :P :P :P

I like the names you have chosen as well.

As far as others opinions......if you didn't have a name that you liked you could consider asking for ideas.....but definately not necessary. There is a couple I know that couldn't decide on a name until the baby was born.

All my children were named after bible names and no other family name was used (aside from our last name :lol:).

My daughters name is harder to pronounce and not real common. I have run across another one in the same HMO that we were in when she was a baby though. That girl was probably about 6 years older than mine.

My husband and I had our names picked out before the baby was born. We didn't know what we were having for the first two. My daughter so wanted me to have twins the last pregnancy so she could have a sister. She still wants a sister. Oh well.

Dessa,

Too funny. :lol:

I like all the name you've picked. I'm kinda partial to Charlie though. My favorite cats name was Charlie :P

When my husband and I were pregnant with our son (1st born) we were planning on naming him Sean (after hubby's bf) Then, I was sitting at the dinner table with my Mom and it just came to me, "August". She looked at me and said, "that was my grandfathers name!" My husband and I knew we had found our boy's name. It fits him perfectly :wub:

You will know what to name your son, you will feel it :)

I vote for Charles. It is actually one of the names that I want but I can't seem to get my husband on board. :) Tyler is a very nice name as well but speaking as someone who has had 9 friends give birth this year alone, and 8 more who are currently pregnant (no I am not exaggerating, it's genuinely bizarre) I can tell you that Tyler is going to be a very common name. He will probably be one of four Tylers in his class that will probably include five girls named Taylor. Apparently Taylor is the new Jennifer. However, since it is going to be his name forever I say if you really like Tyler than go for it. You have to pick something you love.

As for popularity...I've been teaching for ten years and have never had a student named Tyler.

Harrison ? My friend called her son that and its a great name if you like it :lol: Harry or Harrison for later. I had a list of names but never was able to have kids - so Tobias, Rupert, Broderick.....( you should see my girls list ! )

Tyler is nice but a top female singer was Bonnie Tyler going back a while. How about Taylor ?

Robin is boy and Robyn is girl but seems mixed up now.

Last night we officially decided on Tyler James! I'm very happy with our choice and glad to have the decision behind now. Now I'm going to start on his room and buying all the gear he will need.

I can't think of a better name. I absolutely love Tyler James (and Ty for short).

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse. But it is important not to stop the treatment. Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency. I didn't know...

      still struggling with cravings

      I totally get this. It's absolutely a grieving process, and it's okay to feel gutted about the loss of those simple joys, especially at 18. Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real.

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse.  But it is important not to stop the treatment.  Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency.   I didn't know what anxiety was until it hit me like a train several months before gastrointestinal issues began, so I can certainly relate.   Two books which helped me hugely were At Last A Life by Paul David (there is a website you can look up) and The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi.  Although his book is aimed at people who have depression, following the principals he sets out was so helpful in lessening my anxiety.  Llardi suggests we need to focus on getting enough: - physical exercise - omega-3 fatty acids - natural sunlight exposure - restorative sleep - social connectedness - meaningful, engaging activity   ... and we should feel a lot better. That is not to stay you must stop taking medication for depression or anxiety if you have been prescribed it, but adopting the changes Dr Llardi sets out in the book should really help. Can I just ask two more questions:  1) you say that you are B12 deficient, did they test your iron levels too?  If not, you really ought to be checked for deficiency and, 2) did they check your thyroid function, as an overactive thyroid can be cause rapid heartbeat and a lot of coeliacs have thyroid issues?

Im angery because the "celiac specialist " basically lightly dismissed me.Im extremely angery and fighting for a new primary care physician which is hard to do in Northern Cali.So currently without and looking.Im angery that its lightly taken when its extremely serious to the one who has it.My only evidence is a brochure back in the days when I got news letters when I lived at my parents.It was published in 1998.I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet. Angery doctors don't take seriously when Im clearly speaking.I did write to the medicine of congress and have case number.

Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real. It does get easier, I promise, but it's okay to sit in the sadness and just vent about how much it stings right now. Thanks for sharing that. Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean Duane PhD called Gluten-Centric Culture, which covers many of the social aspects of having celiac disease: This chapter in particular covers issues around eating with family and others - Gluten-Centric Culture: Chapter 5 - Grabbing A Bite Together:
