Baby Name Vote

PJ and usually have major issues naming our children. I would like to take care of this name thing early on, so I am allowing all of you to take part in the vote. We may not listen to you, but it would be fun to hear what you think. I will give names and meanings.

Girl

Natalie Jewel Herron  (Natalie - To be born, or Christ's birthday)

Danae Elyse Herron  (Danae - Showered with gold)

Boy

Garrett Jacob Herron  (Garrett - Strenght of the spear)  PJ's favorite

Gareth Jacob Herron  (Gareth - Gentle) I personally like this better than Garrett. More unique.

Colton (Cole) Jacob Herron  (Colton - swarthy person. Swarthy means a person with a dark complexion, in case you
were wondering)


 I heard today my father and mother-in-law read this, so I better hear from you both too, Roy and Mary!  No more stalking my website without making comments!!  :-)


Added:

I wanted to add a couple things (for those who read this before I said this)  We can swap the girls middle names. Example:  Natalie Elyse instead of Natalie Jewel etc.

Also, for my brothers and husbands sake...

Virgil Jacob Herron  (Virgil being Wyatt Earps brothers name)

Doc Holliday Herron   :-)

I think my brothers and husband would love for us to have a little Doc and Wyatt or Virgil and Wyatt running around.   :-)

I don't usually comment, but I had to on this one, even though I am sure my vote doesn't count much....I of course pick Danae Elyse-you even spelled it correctly. If it is a boy I would have to choose Gareth, I like the way it sounds.

Erin said...

Natalie Jewel Herron
Colton Jacob Herron

Tammy said...

Same as Erin's.

joey said...

Gareth Jacob Herron (nickname Doc)

Natalie Jewel Herron

So let it be written, so let it be done.

Unknown said...

Okay I agree with Elyse! I like Danae Elyse and Colton Jacob. :)

Jaime said...

I would like my family to note how many people like Colton. I wanted to name Wyatt that, but PJ (and the rest of the fam) hates it!

Interesting....

Keep it coming!

Jennifer Lightfoot said...

Hm...I have to say I like Natalie Jewel for a girl. I think the meaning is very interesting.

PJ, sorry, but I like Gareth Jacob. I like Colton, but really like Gareth...

Anonymous said...

Guess what. I still hate the name Colton. No poll will change my mind or make it so.

Erin said...

Hey PJ...didn't you get to name Anniston??? :)

Erin said...

How about Stone, Blaze or River for boys:) I have a friend in Michigan whos kids have those names....River hasn't actually been born yet. If he turns out to be a girl...she will be Jewel :) Different strokes for different folks!

Katherine Peschau said...

I like Natalie Elyse for a girl and Gareth Jacob for a boy
Whatever you decide I think they are beautiful names. Can't wait to hear :)

Natalie Jewel and Gareth Jacob. Doc for short.

Debi Walter said...

Girl - Natalie Danae
Boy - Gareth Colton

I know, I know, I ignored the chosen middle names, but I like the combined meanings of the two names:

Girl = Christ's birthday showered with gold
Boy = Gentle and swarthy

Sounds like noble names with true meaning.

You should name her Natalie Jewel and call her NJ.

Medana22 said...

Ok Girl,
First let me say that I have been praying for you and this little one:) Second please for those of us that grew up with junkie odd names disreguard the last 2~
My fav. girl name is Natalie Jewel Herron and I like all the boys names actually except for the use of jacob as the middle:) JK
Happy Not throwing up but kind of wanting too:)

wow. the comments are just flowing in...

I like Natalie Elyse for a girl. And Garreth Jacob for a boy. I have always liked the name Garreth. If I thought we had any hope of having more boys, I think I would use it for one of them... ah, but it seems we are in a girl rut...

Just to throw a random name out there: what about Avery Elyse for a girl?

Jaime said...

Megs, you used two r's for Gareth (Garreth). Does anyone know if there is a "correct" spelling?

I like Avery. I forgot about that one from when we named Anniston. I doubt PJ would like it. :-)

Anonymous said...

I thought it was always spelled with two R's. Garreth looks better than Gareth.

Janelle--

If looks mattered we wouldn't be having this conversation at all.

I don't quite know what I think about Avery. Certainly has potential. But, it's a moot point, we are having a boy.

Jennifer Lightfoot said...

PJ,

Pride goes before a fall...

Anonymous said...

Ok I dreamed you were having twin boys. So just hang on to both the boys names. :-)

Jaime said...

If I have twins, I am giving one to Jenn.

:-)

Jennifer Lightfoot said...

OMG! ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?! I'll take him! Can you watch him while I work though? ;o)

Taraleigh said...

our vote:

Gareth Jacob
Natalie Elyse

Jenn as long as you are "at peace" with Nyquil I am sure Jamie wouldn't mind watching him!

Anonymous said...

i've always thought it had two r's.
personally i like that better, cause one r reminds me of gary for some reason...

lawrence said...

i agree w/ megan definitely two r's...and it doesn't matter what you name him we're calling him Doc...and I like Colton...and Medana I'll just pretend I never read the thing about Jacob...just too mean-spirited to comprehend.

Jennifer Lightfoot said...

'Kay, I'm a believer...I like Doc Holliday Herron. Yep. You should use that one...

Jaime said...

Jenn,

What in the world. You are a believer? Did you just watch Tombstone or something?

Jennifer Lightfoot said...

I did! I don't remember it being so funny...maybe I watched it in a really bad mood or something...Anyway, it's great! Kayla, Wyatt, Aniston and Doc. It kinda flows, doncha think?

;o)

Jesse P. said...

I am still bitter everybody hates the spelling of Issac's name.

Therefore, I cast my vote for every name you don't like and will go around telling people the wrong way to spell whatever you decide.

Jennifer Lightfoot said...

Get a dictionary, Jesse! Or, better yet - a Bible!

Oh yeah! That was a good one, Jenn! Thanks, self - I thought so too!
