what's-his-name choices

as you well remember, we haven't had the best luck with choosing names for baby boy in the past, oh...39 weeks or so. :)

a few weeks ago, michael and i decided we would each choose 5 names and then narrow down a list from there. we've also chosen that we won't finally decide on his name until we meet him. i mean, we've waited this long, what's a few more days?

so, i think we have a list of 4 to choose from. feel free to give your opinions, as long as none of them are negative...:)

michael daniel jules kotze junior - MDJK
jackson david jules kotze - JDJK
nathan daniel jules kotze - NDJK
luke henry jules kotze - LHJK

For what my opinion is worth, I LOVE Luke Henry. Oh my gosh, I love that so much. Any of your options are fabulous, but that one is definitely my fave.

I really truly honestly like them all, but there's just something about luke henry. I can see you with the most beautiful luke. But then I can also see you with a very adorable Jackson. And a very witty michael. and a very sweet and smart nathan.

In other words, I think I'll love him no matter his name. :)

Exactly - I see you with the most beautiful Luke, too. And I like how it incorporates your maiden name. I think it's perfect.

Just wondering...what is Jules?

I'm for Luke Henry, though I've always liked Jackson David. Whatever you both choose will be perfect for a perfect baby boy. We're just ready to see him regardless his name.

jules is a family name on michael's side. it comes from one of his elder uncles. he, his brother and sisters all have it as their second middle name. we're carrying on the tradition his mom started. :)

My personal fave is Jackson David...bur everyone is right...it's a great list! And he'll be loved no matter what his name! :)

My opinion is that if this is not the only child you are going to have, that you should do the Junior option. It would be weird to give the Junior to your 2nd son. Any of the others can be for your next son. I do like the name Luke with your last name. It sounds stately or something. Good choices, though. And I am really opinionated about names, even more so than other things, if you can believe that. And I like all the choices.

Luke Henry is also my favorite! But I agree with everyone else, they are all very handsome names.

Mamo really like luke henry...but I'll love him even if you were to name him something goofy like...Clancy.

For what its worth, I like Jr. I like all the names but the idea you could call him Jr. or MJ or MDJK the second or whatever is cool. Can't wait to meet the little guy :)
