Can we discuss this boys name...
Wrigley
as in Wrigley Field. DH is a HUGE Cubs fan and they MAY change the name of the stadium at some time.
I'm on the fence...maybe as a middle name?
His first pick was Ryne after his fave baseball player Ryne Sandburg (as in Rhino)

Re: Can we discuss this boys name...
I'll be honest, not a big fan of the name. Maybe to use as a middle name would be better??

Re: Can we discuss this boys name...
I don't think it's a bad name, but not one of my faves. I would definitely consider it for a middle name though!

Re: Can we discuss this boys name...
go middle name 
ETA: if you do choose Wrigley, just be prepared for that question every time
Them: "What's his name?"
You: "Wrigley"
Them: "Oh, like as in the field or the gum?"
I get it with DD all the time with her name

Re: Can we discuss this boys name...
I don't want to be brutally honest but I'm going to be....
Wrigley reminds me of the gum (brand name)......
And would not be a name I'd consider.
Naming a child after a baseball field or a gum manufacturer just isn't my cup of tea.
But, maybe I'm not a good judge as I am much more into traditional names.
Sorry!

Re: Can we discuss this boys name...
I dunno.... honestly, I think as a first name either may cause him to be taunted in school.... but then there's always something for kids to pick on.....
I'm personally not too big of a fan of either neam.... (I'm certain a lot of people won't like the name we choose either, so if I were you, I wouldn't go too much by my opinion  My advice really is to not agree to a name if you don't also love it. the only opnions that matter are yours and DH's!)

Re: Can we discuss this boys name...
too be honset, I dont like it at all. I just think that it might be a harsh name for the child to grow up with.

Re: Can we discuss this boys name...
Wrigley.......not so much for a first? Sorry 
Just a thought.........Ryne may also be confused/heard as "Ryan" if you don't mind that at all.

YES! DH also suggested Maddux (for Greg Maddux) BUT....Angelina Jolie has a Maddox.
I would have gone for Maddux

His first pick was Ryne after his fave baseball player Ryne Sandburg (as in Rhino)
my brother named his dog wrigley after wrigley field because that's where they found him when they traveled to chicago i personally think its cute

I like Maddux, I know someone who named their child Shea and it really fits him! If your hubby LOVES Wrigley, maybe that could be his nickname for him, that only he would call him. (that makes it very personal)
