We are due with our second child, a little girl, on April 28th. Our son&#8217;s name is Tyson Charles Davis. Charles was my father&#8217;s name who passed away, and Tyson was a name my husband loved for a long time. My husband&#8217;s mother also has passed away, and her name was Laura. So for our little girl, we know we want to use Laura as the middle name. I have always loved the name Madison, but it is so popular, and since our last name is also very ordinary, my husband is fearful that she will have 2-3 other Madison&#8217;s in her class. So far my top choice is Madison Laura Davis. My husband likes Karsen, but we also like names that have easy nicknames (We call our son &#8220;Ty&#8221;) and I don&#8217;t like &#8220;Kar&#8221; as a nickname. We also want to have more children- so if we stick with the &#8220;son&#8221; ending name theme- we are worried we&#8217;ll run out of other options for future girls. For boys, we like Coleson and Jackson, but we&#8217;re not sure on girl names. We have family names that we will be using for future children&#8217;s middle names. For this baby girl, we are open to other possibilities- it doesn&#8217;t have to end in &#8220;son&#8221;. We tossed around Kaelyn and Briella- but neither one seemed right (I could never remember Kaelyn right off the top of my head!) I loved Isabella and Kennedy- but two of our close friends are having daughters and using those names. My husband wants to start calling our daughter by her name, but I&#8217;m indecisive! Please help!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I suggest Madigan.  It&#8217;s so similar to Madison but way less common, and I love the repeating D-sound with your surname:  Madigan Davis.  Madigan Laura Davis.  I love that, and you can still use the nickname Maddy.<\/p>\n<p>For -son endings, I like Emerson, Ellison, and Jenson.  I think those all sound good with your surname:  Emerson Laura Davis, Ellison Laura Davis, Jensen Laura Davis.  And those all have good nicknames:  Emmie or Emers or Em, Ellie or Ellis or El, Jennie or Jen.<\/p>\n<p>For future -son boys, I particularly like Anderson, Carson, Edison, Greyson, Harrison, Lawson, and Wilson.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Erica writes: Hello!
