Default Baby names and NO idea

beyond the pale wrote:

LOl but really, I feel like if I have nothing else ready that's fine but
it's too bad not to have a name. This means I will surely go into labor
early and will not be prepared.


I know the feeling. I have a girl name and we're all pretty sure it will
be a girl. (Sara Katrin) but all of a sudden the baby doesn't "feel"
like a Sara anymore, plus I just found out Sara/Sarah is number 7 in the
most popular names list this year. YAY. So now I'm trying to find
another girl name with an S. And there aren't any! I like Salome but Sam
already vetoed it and I kind of don't see me yelling
"Salomeeeeeeeeeeeee" on the playground, Stefanie, Sonja, Susanne, Sabine
all make me shudder because I know at least one of each who was a stupid
cow. I like Sandra, but that's my cousins name. And really there aren't
that many more that are pronouncable in german as well as in
english/french. I like biblical names even though I don't "do"
god/religion, simply because they're usually pronouncable in any
language. I like Abigail, but in german... No go. Besides, doesn't start
with an S. I like Ruth, but Sam doesn't. He wants a Sara Anna but Anna's
my mothers name so I vetoed that *lol*.
I hate picking out names. For Sam it took nearly the whole pregnancy and
even then I wasn't sure, but I looked at him and he was a Samuel
Christoph, so that was alright.
I have no boy name. It better be a girl.

All that said, I will go with Sara Katrin if I don't have some kind of
epiphany or a name comes to me in my sleep.

I also haven't done a thing concerning baby furniture. I have 3 plastic
boxes of clothes (one for newborn, and the other two for the larger
sizes), they're stackable and I used a system like that for Sam. No
searching for clothes that fit, just put the too small ones away and
grab something from another bin.
I'll have to figure out where to put the changing-thing which is
currently in Sams room being used as his dresser, but he agreed that the
baby can have it, so that's ok. It's not like she'll need the drawers
anyway. Then I'll have to work out where to put my large desk which is
currently in my bedroom "holding" most of my sewing stuff. There'a
really no other place for it though. UGH. I hate having to move
furniture around!

Well, another 2.5 months, that's plenty of time, right? Right?
