The name game... with your first child you have a list of girl names and boy names. Ours had at least 5 on each list. Then your second you just talk about names you like and end up picking one. With the third one... I said that I liked "Presley" and Joey said, "yeah, I like that name" and there we have it. :-)
Molly and Avery were named in the hospital cause I just couldn't decide for sure what I wanted to name them. With this one I know that I love the name Presley and after 3 girls I'm running out of possible choices, so there's no runner up. :-)
Presley it is. We're having a hard time coming up with a middle name though. I like short middle names. Doesn't necessarily have to be one syllable but nothing long like Elizabeth - it's just too formal sounding for me.
We've already got Avery Kate and Molly Jae so we don't want it to be a variation of Kate or Jae.
When I asked Joey what he thought he said "Joe". HA! He was joking of course but I know if I would have said - "yeah I like it" - he would have totally gone for it. His dad's name is Joseph Michael and his grandpa was Joseph something and I'm not sure if it went past that or not... but if we had a boy it was one of those unspoken rules that we were supposed to name him Joseph Michael.... Good thing we got all girls cause that wasn't happening :-)

i like presley paige lada or presley laine(layne) lada... i like jade but its too close to mollys middle name.. its easy to find one to go with presley but trycky to find one that sounds good with lada!
First off... you know I love Presley. It's a perfect fit! And I'm so proud of you for deciding so early... I thought you would surely do what you have done the last 2 times. Maybe you get some monogrammed stuff this time :)
I like the names that both of the other people listed. I would say no to "Grace", b/c I think anything Elvis related needs to be out and since Grace could be short for Graceland I say no. And I oviously like that name :)
I like the name Rae and Ruth and Paige. I like the Layne or Lane that they both listed but not sure about it with Lada??? Hmmm... good luck girl! I still think Ann is a good fit.
Presley is an adorable name! One of my friends husbands is named Joe so they named their little girl Joey. Her name is Joey Drea.
And you know I like Presley Rose, but now that you're open to a double syllable, I'll have to re-think.
I like Presley Ann Lada. But as you probably know I am partial to Ann as it was my middle name and now we have Riley Ann Asher. I like Ann we'll just leave it at that. Good luck picking!!
