Sure, Cyd looks more feminine because of Cyd Charisse.. But Sydney/Sidney is traditionally masculine, so Syd/Sid is masculine to me. BTW, Cyd Charisse was born Tula Ellice Finklea, and Sid (later Cyd) was a nickname from a brother or sister trying to say Sis. |

No other NFL fans out there finding this funny, besides me? |

I find it terribly funny! I have a girlfriend whose two girls are named Kennedy and Logan. What's that make you think of? |

These were my 2 picks for the boy we are expecting. I'm pushing for Payton since it's a form of Patrick (DH's nam). My DH caught the NFL connection though and thought it was funny. |

This is mom to Brady and Payton. I get that all the time. My husband got 1st names for boys and I did for girls. I had to talk him down from Cadillac and Quinn as first names. There is no way I wanted a Brady and a Quinn. |

I know, I was surprised and I'm hoping it doesn't become overly popular. My husband and I have liked the name Henry for about 8 years now and it seems that a lot of celebs are going for that name now. But, I still don't meet too many Henrys in day to day life. |

| Does anyone like the name Delilah? What about Paxton? Honest thoughts? |

I have a friend with a one year old named Henry. At the time, I thought it was a very unusual name, but now I hear it all the time. I also grew up with a Harper and always thought that was a very cool name - she also had sisters named Tatum and Skyler - very hip names for the 70s! |

One of the Dixie Chicks named her daughter Harper before Lisa Marie Presley. I know a little girl named Harper. I'm sure it will still be pretty far down on the SSA list in terms of popularity rank, but I don't think of it as very unique anymore. |

Honest thoughts: Delilah has a pretty strong Biblical connotation (think Samson and Delilah), so make sure you like the stories before using. Lila is a less-charged possibility. Don't like Paxton--seems made-up to me, and that's not my style. |

| I have a friend with two daughters two years apart named - you guessed it - Finley and Harper. |

I LOVE the name Delilah but dont think the biblical story reflects well on her so I probably will never use it

Sigh ... I know ... I've loved the name Harper Lee since reading To Kill a Mockingbird years ago. Lee is my husband's middle name and my grandmother's maiden name so it holds even more meaning for me. |

| Please no more using Sophie or Sophia. It seems like every other little girl we meet lately has that name, or a sibling with that name. |
