Vote for Your Favorite Name

I don't think Ben and I are keeping our baby name choices a big secret, so I've decided to put the top possibilities out there and see if there is a big favorite - there is a poll to the right of this post: Which of the following names do you like the best for baby #2? Charlie (we would name him Charles, but call him Charlie), Thomas, or Nicholas?

You have a week to vote!

In addition, let me know if you have any great blog name suggestions for after this baby is born. I don't think we can keep the name Eli Love once we have two little ones... any thoughts?

Interesting Baby Name Finder

Yesterday I was trying to find how many people named their baby Eli in 2007 because I keep hearing of people using this name. I couldn't find info yet for 2007, but in 2006, the name ranked 139 in popularity in the U.S.

In my googling, I learned about a baby name site, Nymbler, which takes names that you mark as favorites and then gives similar suggestions. It's along the same lines of my favorite baby name book, The Baby Name Wizard. We used that book the most when we were putting our list together of favorite names. Our other top boy name was Lincoln, but in the end, Eli was the top choice! (I still really love the name Lincoln though)
