Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.
This week we get to talk about Characters We Would Name A Child After. Which is SO perfect because……
Chelsea is going to be a mommy! Next spring her husband and her will be bringing a sweet little baby into the world. We are over the moon ecstatic for them! See, isn’t this topic just perfect?! The first seven names are on Chelsea’s baby name list. We can’t wait to see which name she chooses! Two names are Jen’s choices that her husband said no to when she was pregnant back in the day. And the last two are names Anna loves for the future! Have fun reading through out list.

Congrats on the pregnancy! They’re all good names! I really love the name Aiden. Liam and Elias are great too. I don’t have children, but I’ve used the first two is stories I’ve written 🙂

Thank you so much!! I love all my names, but hubbs isn’t quite as keen…I imagine it will be a battle to the end. lol

Miles, Elias, and Aiden are good ones! Jason is great too. Jason was almost my first baby’s name, then she was a girl not a boy. Lol!

Yes for Aiden! Maybe I can someday have a puppy with that name, but I’m really wanting Gizmo for a future boy puppy. OH Jason was my name choice too for my second one – I was between Jason and Jacob. But yup, we can’t chose what sex we’re going to have. 🙂

Congratulations to Chelsea! Well, I really like Aiden, Liam, and Jason. I also love Delilah (A Gathering of Shadows), Saba (Blood Red Road), Luca (Vendetta), and Yelena (Poison Study) :))

Oooh your names are awesome too! I LOVE Delilah <3

I thought that was pretty funny too that we were only one letter off from each other. 🙂

Congrats!!
You don’t see Xander all that often, one of the only others I can think of with that name is the Buffy character. 🙂

This is ADORABLE ♥!!! Ever since I was introduced to Connor Cobalt from the Calloway Sisters series I have loved the name for a little boy. 🙂
October 20, 2016 at 1:08 pm
Aw! If I didn’t know so many Connor’s, I’d like it, too lol

I would agree with Liam from TDM! (It’s the only one I’ve read on gthis list so I might be a bit biased). 🙂
