What do you think here...?

We have yet to decide on a boy's name for this baby. So far it's down to just a few names... Cliff Ellis(or maybe Elias), Cliff Andrew, and Cliff Gavin. We both like these names so it's pretty much a toss of the 3-sided coin here, we just can't decide.

Cliff Ellis(or maybe Elias), Cliff Andrew, and Cliff Gavin. We both like these names so it's pretty much a toss of the 3-sided coin here, we just can't decide. Cliff is a family name on her side that we want to use and the middle names are names that we've picked out and like. I don't much like the name Cliff for a baby so I will probably use his middle name and call him either Eli, Andrew, or Gavin. Which one do you think is best?

If the baby is a girl though, we do have a name picked out - Samantha Lillian. Samantha after my brother Samuel who was killed 6 years ago (in 6 days) and Lillian because we both really like the name. What do you think of this one?



This is my 6th child (brothers James Timmothy (Timmy), Douglas Jackson (Dougie), Markus Paul & Mattias Petr (Mark & Matt) and sister Katherine Kelsey(Katie)) and this is her 3rd (brothers Kyle Henry & Douglas Jackson(Dougie))
Update: Put together we have 6 soon to be 7 kids:
Tim (age 5 - mine)
Kyle (4 - hers)
Dougie (3 - ours)
Katie (17 months - mine)
Markus & Mattias (8 1/2 months - mine)
and this new baby which is ours
Update 2: We didn't use Samuel for a boy's name because that was my brother's name. It just seems very weird to call someone else by his name. I also think it would be somewhat unfair to my older boys that this baby gets the name Samuel and not them. When Sam and I grew up EVERYTHING was always Johnny & Samuel... show more We didn't use Samuel for a boy's name because that was my brother's name.

When Sam and I grew up EVERYTHING was always Johnny & Samuel this, Samuel & Johnny that, I think it would just be too weird to have someone else be like my other half. But I would really love to give the name to a baby girl. I think that's much more appropriate.
