We are having our fourth BOY and his expectant arrival is September 18, 2009! We are struggling with a boys name (have lots of girl names!!) and would welcome your expertise and opinion!

I like Levi or Lincoln for a middle name however not for a first name as there seem to be too many \u201cL\u201d names!

I&#8217;m presumptuously removing Cole from your list: since it&#8217;s the middle name of another of your boys, and since you&#8217;ll have FOUR boys, it seems like a good idea for each boy to get his own two names.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Poll results<\/strong> (201 votes total):<br \/>\nMax: 22 votes, roughly 11%<br \/>\nCooper: 26 votes, roughly 13%<br \/>\nGage: 13 votes, roughly 6%<br \/>\nCallum: 21 votes, roughly 10%<br \/>\nHenry: 39 votes, roughly 19%<br \/>\nKeegan: 3 votes, roughly 1%<br \/>\nOwen: 44 votes, roughly 22%<br \/>\nRiley: 13 votes, roughly 6%<br \/>\nSamuel: 20 votes, roughly 10%<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cori writes: Hi!
