Thank you, BNB regs!

I just wanted to stop in and say thank you for the thoughtful and insightful answers you all provided over the past year as my DH and I have struggled to come up with a name for our possible DS3.  I know I posted a lot of polls and questions, and I appreciated very much all of the help I received.

Our anatomy scan is a month from today, and my goal was to have a name picked out prior to that (my other boys' names were chosen at 8 weeks, and pre-conception, so this whole struggle has been new and painful!!!).

I think DH and i finally agreed on Benjamin Luke, to go with our older boys, Noah and Caleb. 

It just "feels" right, and gives me that warm fuzzy feeling I had been waiting for, and we are finally equally in love with something.  FN/LN doesn't flow as well as with the first two boys' names (which had been a sticking point for me), but we love the name, and I came to the conclusion it is worth it to get to use the name : ).

Thank you for your help Smile.

Great name! Love it with your other boys' names as well. Congrats!

I'm a Tulip in a cup, I stand no chance of growing up.

Burt Farlander: Do you promise to let our daughter be fat or skinny or any weight at all? Because we want her to be happy, no matter what. Being obsessed with weight is just too cliché for our daughter.
Verona De Tessant: Yes, I do. Do you promise, when she talks, you'll listen? Like, really listen, especially when she's scared? And that her fights will be your fights?
Burt Farlander: I do. And do you promise that if I die some embarrassing and boring death that you're gonna tell our daughter that her father was killed by Russian soldiers in this intense hand-to-hand combat in an attempt to save the lives of 850 Chechnyan orphans?
Verona De Tessant: I do. Chechnyan orphans. I do. I do.

Aww, great name!  DH's name is Benjamin and I'm pushing for Luca Benjamin if this baby is a boy.

Congrats!  We also have (I think) finally decided on using Benjamin.  Its a good solid name that's not as far as people we know and in our area over used. It also goes great with your other names.  Smile
