Title: The Other Gender's Names

So, maybe you changed your mind a few times. Maybe you've had children of both sexes, but still had other names picked out each time. What were your kids going to be named had they been the other sex?

I have no idea - we couldn't decide on a girls name by the time we found out we were having a boy.  To this day, I still do not have "that name" I would name a daughter.  I always joke, if we had a girl, there probably would have been some very lengthy discussions on the name.  Instead, it was a fun and easy process.

We waited to think o names until we had sonogram so we did not have to do to much thinking other than for the sex we needed.

Since I had 2 girls, the boy name was going to be the same regardless.  His name would have been Riley Jon.

I can still hope....

I always wanted to use my mothers maiden name and my mil's maiden name which would have been Riffe Jordan. (Riffe is pronounced with a long i and silent e).  So if Katelynn would have been a boy thats what I was fighting for.   With Owen we didn't find out his gender and had Savannah Marie picked out if he were a girl.

With Anthony we found out that he was a boy but before we knew we decided we were going to name him after my fil who passed right before we found out I was pg. So we had chosen Emma Lee for a girl and Anthony Lee for a boy.  We got Anthony.
