Thanks to guys we have narrowed down our girls name to 3 (which was our goal)- Gabriella, Julianna, and Milana....we're gonna hold off and if its a girl see what name fits her little face the best!

Now we've somewhat agreed and narrowed down boys names- opinions please!Chat Icon

Why would you name the child Matteo but call him Matthew?

I love Matteo, husband really likes Matthew and not Matteo- its somewhat of a compromise!

Knowing my family, he'll end up being "Matty Boy" (Boy is always added on- we have a Sally Boy, Johnny Boy, Matty Boy, Tommy Boy- it just happensChat Icon ).

Re: Boys name help

I don't understand naming him Matteo and calling him Matthew. I would just name him Matthew then.
I like:

I think after birth, the least DH could do is give up his vote on a name Chat Icon

Re: Boys name help

I love that mostly all the names you picked out are Italian.. but then your DH throws Trevor into the mix Chat Icon

I understand totally why you would name your son Matteo but call him Matthew. Once upon a time I was considering the name Vincenzo but my plans were to call him Vinny. That was way back when, before I even got pregnant. Now everytime I hear "Vinny" I think of it being the typical Italian "giudo" name so I scratched that.

I'm partial to the name Anthony since I'm naming my son Anthony Joseph after his daddy. Honestly, I like ALL of your choices, so its going to be hard to narrow it down.

Good luck!

Vincenzo was also on my list of names, we'd also call him Vinny but my DH likes the other listed above better!

Anthony Joseph is such a nice name! ThanksChat Icon You just gave us our middle name if we go with Anthony!Chat Icon

My DH threw Trevor in the mix because he said I mostly had all "guido" names and he wanted something else in the mix!Chat Icon I like the guido name though!!Chat Icon
