Sorry this is so long! But TIA for the help!

---

Ok so here's the problem: DH and I had talked about baby names when we found out we were pregnant again. I always have a list of favourite names going (like most of you here) and he was pretty much like "Ok, you pick and as long as I don't dislike it than we're good." (For example he vetoed Caspian but was ok w/ Caspar.) Well now he's having issues w/ both names (mostly brought on by my irritating MIL) and I'm getting extremely frustrated with this whole thing. I thought we were all set with names and I was happy with the choices but now DH and MIL are making me second guess :(

---

Ok..... so here's the issues MIL has w/ my names that DH has been sucked into. Kelsey she thinks is a boys name and innapropriate for a girl. Odd since she was OK w/ Sascha for a boy. Jordana she doesn't like but has no specific reason and Jade she says is stone not a name. Her issue w/ Caspar is the whole "friendly ghost" thing. She's really irritating me on this one b/c she has started referring to him as "The Ghost" which has already created a few arguments between us. Emerson she hasn't commented on (so far.) As you can probably see I don't get along well w/ my MIL on a regular basis :)

I'm not totally throwing out the names I have already picked but I did agree to consider other names to placate MIL which will in turn placate DH. I'm not budging on Jade and I really don't want to scratch Emerson either as mns, although I would consider Emery instead of Emerson. All my children are named after someone. That's the tradition in my family. Emerson is a name used a couple generations back as a mn and Jade is obviously after me. I really like the combo of Jordana Jade but I'm not sure I want Jordana as a fn.

---

One other issue DH is having is that Cohen, Keenan, Kelsey & Caspar all start w/ a -K sound and he feels that Sascha is left out *rolls eyes*

---

Anyways these are the ones I'm considering at the moment. I'm kinda stuck on boy names but any suggestions/opinions are more than welcome!

---

girls:
Anastazja Jade nn Stazja
Piper Jordana Jade / Piper Jade
Carley Jordana Jade / Carley Jade / Charlotte Jade nn Carley
Ivey Jordana Jade (yes I know I spelled it oddly)
Natalija Jade
Phoebe Jade

---

boys:
Micah Emerson / Micah Emery (this is prob my fave next to Caspar)
Sage Emerson
Avery Emerson
Emery Sage
Gage Emerson
Jaron Emerson / Jaron Emery (is this too close to my brother Jarod's name?)

Again I apologize that this is so long but thanks so much for the help!
