My two favorites are Oscar John or Kimball John. Tim says that Kimball sounds too feminine. Hasn't he read Kim by Rudyard Kipling????
Lindsay and Sterling managed to come up with a name for their baby. Kayli and I, sadly, will never manage it.
This is getting depressing.

Lol. We have a nephew named Kimball. He's as far removed from being feminine as you can get! Never heard something thinking that before. I laughed to hard!
Sorry. I know. Your plight with baby names it not funny at all. I repent. ; ) Hope you are able to find a name you both like a lot soon! Can't wait to "meet" the newest member!
Oops! Meant to say *someone*.
My vote would be for Oscar John. I do like the name Oscar. I would have to agree with Tim though, Kimball sounds feminine. Maybe it's because I have a girl that's Kendall. But I do know some little girls named Kimball and Campbell.
Congratulations on your exciting news! I have not heard Kimball as a girl name nor do I think it feminine. I was almost Hillary after a male ancestor. Beverly, Shirley, Ashley, Hillary, Leslie, etc., all boy names that became girl names. Now we think of them as "older lady" names (sorry if some found that offensive, I only mean that there were some brave ladies that named their girls "boy names" a while ago). Girls can easily take on masculine names. Aaron and I would really like Lauren Eugene after a couple of my ancestors and Lauren was always a boy name that I liked growing up. Alas it has gone girl. And once a name goes girl...it is too difficult to turn the tide. Best of luck and I'm glad I checked in! ~Rita Law
