Alright...I know I am pretty early into my pregnancy (7wks) but I can't help but start thinking of baby names already. There are sooooooo many to choose from that I think i'm gonna need all of the time I can get!!!

My baby is going to be biracial (half white/half black) but that doesn't really have a huge impact on the name I choose. I haven't mentioned baby names to my bf yet so I don't really know what kind of names he might like but am open to ideas right now. I really like non-traditional/unique names but there are some traditional names I like as well. I don't want anything too trendy. Of course I do not know whether this baby is a boy or a girl yet but I am hoping for a girl and feel as though it is going to be a girl...But you never know (probably wishful thinking)....

My #1 choice for a girl's name is trinity. I have loved this name for so long! I've always dreamed of naming my little girl trinity. Since me and my bf haven't discussed names yet I am afraid that he might hate it when I mention it to him and then I will be soooooooooo dissapointed since I am in love with the name.
When it comes to boys names I am totally lost...I don't really have a whole lot of good ideas b/c i've always pictured myself having a girl.

So what are your opinions on the name trinity and what middle names would go good with it?
What other girl's names do you really like?

And as far as boy's names I could use all of the help I can get :)


oh, and another dillemma...What did/are you do/going to do as far as your baby's last name? Is it going to have your last name or the father's?
I am not married but am still with my bf. We've had alot of bumps in the road (as far as our relationship goes) and I just take things with him one day at a time. Since our relationship is so rocky I don't really want the baby to have his last name. I am kind of set on the baby having my last name unless/until maybe we get married in the future (and then of course I would plan on changing the baby's last name as well). I think my bf will totally freak when I tell him thats what my thoughts are. Depending on how things go (whether or not he signs the birth certificate/takes legal paternal responsibility) do you know how that would work? Even if he signs the birth certificate does the mother still have a choice of who's last name the baby will have or do both parents have to consent??How does that whole thing work??

Thanks for your time and help ladies!
