Are there any special stories behind them?

My oldest child is named Miranda Anne. Miranda is a combination of my and my husband's names (Mary and Randal) and Anne is also my middle name.
My second child, our only son, is named Randal Allen, II. His name is self explanatory, I believe. He loves sharing his name with Daddy, and talks about naming his son III when he has one. I think it is cute, and if he does want to do that when he has his own children we will of course be thrilled (but will be thrilled no matter what our Grandchild is named).
We are currently expecting our third child, a daughter whom we plan to name Gwendalyn Rose. Picking a name this time was the most difficult, because it was the first time we actually decided on a name, as the others we just knew. My husband likes the name Wendy, but I think it is more of a nickname than a 'real' name so Gwendalyn is her formal name. She is now affectionately known as Gwendy.

My son is named Ryan Mackenzie (first and middle only) and the story behind Ryan is that when I was in high school I had a vivid dream about a guy named Ryan... and I woke up the next morning and drew a picture of him and I had a good feeling about it- he was a wonderful person, sensitive to the feelings' of others, kind, funny, etc... and eventually I decided it was a good name for my child one day. I could see the person I raised becoming that man/teen I drew in 10th grade. When I got pregnant with my son there wasn't even another boy's name on the list-- it was always Ryan and I never waffled on it. Mackenzie just sounded good and later I realized (after watching Father of the Bride for the millionth time) that the guys name was BRIAN MACKENZIE and then it hit me- NO WONDER I liked those 2 together!
Our child (to be born Nov 26th) will be Rhys Mason. We just like Reece but my husband insists on the old Welsh spelling and Mason is because my grandpa, whom I was very close to, was a Mason (in life- he was a bricklayer- and he was a Mason as in Masonic Lodge).

We only have one son, Benjamin Micheal. His dad picked the first name and I picked the second. Then, of course we find out that Benjamin was the most popular boy's name for 2001. There's Ben's everywhere! I really wasn't expected that. He'll always be Bennie Bear to me. Gwendalyn is a very pretty name. And my name is Rose!

My son is due on Thanksgiving. We will be naming him Jamari Ashaun.
Jamari because- I have like the name Amari since I was in high school, but a friend of mines decided to name his daughter Amari about a year ago. THEIF! LOL. So, any ways...my boyfriend wants to name him Jaiden which I love but it WAY too popular...so we to the "J" from Jaiden and added it to my Amari. At least there won't be 5 other Jamari's in the class with him.
Ashaun- It's different and dad's name is Austin. He is a 3rd and refuses for the name to be made a 4th...so we modified a little.

My kids are Shane, Cole and twins Grant & Audrey Anna. No real special stories, just names we could agree on.
I like Miranda and Randall. - nice names.
I like Wendy better than Gwen as a nickname for Gwendolyn. (I prefer the more common spelling)
Personally though I prefer Guinevere or Ginevra over Gwendolyn/Gweneth.
Gwendolyn sounds good with your other kids names.

My oldest son's name is: John Walter (17 yrs. old)
-he's named after his father
My youngest son's name is: Cameron Derek (15 yrs. old)
-I wanted him to have a unique name, not named after anyone
-His first name I'd heard on a soapopera when I was a teenager, "As The World Turns". The character was played by Ian Zering. I just fell in love with the name & knew it would be one of my son's names when I finally started having children
-His 2nd name is after a manager of a Christian rock group, named Free Fare, that came to my h.s. when I was a sophomore. I'd never seen his name spelled that way & really liked it.

Step-son's name is Roger Mason. Roger is after his grandpa who passed away when his father was little and Mason was just the name his dad came up with. They call him Mason though.
My daughter's name is Mikayla Dawn. I really like Michael as a boys name but I ended up having a girl and I didn't like Michaela as the spelling so I picked Mikayla. Dawn is my middle name.

My son's name is Lars Andrew. He husband came home one day shortly after we found out the gender and decidedly stated that we were naming our son Lars and he wasn't changing his mind. I agreed. My husband is Mexican, Italian, and Irish and my family is Irish, so Lars has a nice uniqueness about it. I picked Andrew as a middle name because both of us are catholic. It works. It's short, to go with a long last name and is easy to say and spell.
