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).

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
