We decided on two girl names and one boy name already. And we're 22, are getting married in March, and right now don't want to even try to have kids until about 2 or so years after the wedding. So no, I don't think it's weird at all. 
I don't think it's weird, I think it's normal. FI & I do that...we've already decided on first names for both a boy & a girl.
We decided on a name for a boy and for a girl about 6 months before getting engaged.... so no, I don't think it's weird!
We do. LOL I don't think it is weird at all. I think it shows your excitment for when that day does come :)
Not any more weird than discussing how you want to decorate your house you can't buy for another couple of years. FI and I discussed a couple of names we liked when we first started dating, and neither of us even wants kids!
ummm NO WAY! We talked about that probably 6 months into dating-we've been dating 3 years, getting married in June. HAHA! and we don't plan on having children until 2 years after we've been married. :) I've always had my names I liked for a boy and girl, and he's named after his father, and we will have the third if we have a boy, and then I like another family name in his family so that's another option...not weird at all!!! :)
Nice! I didn't know if that was strange, but I see now that it isn't! Isn't it fun? :)
Haha! I'm in the same situation! We're not getting married until 2012, but have talked about baby names already. We have a boy and a girl's name picked out.
My FI and I talk about names too. We have a few picked out. I think both of us have baby fever. I cant wait!
We do that all the time, so I don't think it's strange at all! I know friends who talk about it too with their SO. We have several girls names we like but can't agree on a single boys name...FH is really picky about boys names.
we didnt really talk about names, i had a girl name picked out for a long time, he always wanted to name his son after him. we decided that whatever we have we will already know the name. and we can always talk about other names if we have a 2nd boy or 2nd girl when we get pregnant for the 2nd time. before we were even engaged.
just a tip though, a lot of not-pregnant-yet moms-to-be arent sharing their baby name choices with others for fear of people stealing the name.
@thefiancemeenah:I know! I'm so afraid of sharing mine *but I do anyway because I love them* but I dont want them to become super common.
My name is so common I hated it I always had several other girls with the same name in my class. I dont want my children to have the same thing
I don't think it's weird. My BF and I do... well I do, he just shoots them down! There's like 2 boy's names we agree on. Girl names are a different story! I just think it's something fun to do, especially if you're headed that direction someday!
I don't think it's weird at all! We aren't getting married for 5 more months but we've had our kids names picked out for a looooooong time.
We both grew up every summer vacationing in Wells, ME at our beach houses (we were less than a mile away from each other each summer our whole lives and never knew!), and we got engaged on Drake's Island Beach in Wells as well. So, we've decided our boy/girl names will be
Landon Wells
&
Addison Drake
love them.
We also talked about our kids names waaay before marriage.. we were standing in line for a ride at disneyland and somehow the subject came up :)
My fiance and I totally do this, and we won't be married for another 6 1/2 months! So far, we've agreed on a boy's name, but not a girl's name. So I definitely don't think it's weird at all :)
@AnneNM82:It's fine as long as both people enjoy it. Its good to have someone to share your thoughts with.
No. It's fun and exciting to think about the future. AND the fact that he is willing to talk baby names most likey means he is open to the idea of having kids which is a huge plus if you want babies!
I've had the baby bug for a while now and it's fun to think of names and plan for the future. You could even make a list of names you like so that you can choose the one that bests fits your mood and fits baby when he/she arrives!
Not at ALL.
I've pretty much decided on 2 girls names (Lucy Anne & Delaney Grace) & 2 boys (Andrew James & Terrance Edward) names. FI said he doesn't care what I name the other ones as long as we name a boy Andrew. (After Andrew Moog, former goaltender for the Bruins & his idol growing up.)
Done. Although, we're currently locked in a stalemate over the middle name. He wants Donald (aka, Andrew Moog's actual name), whereas I want James (after a family member).
I have another family member with the name FI wants and I REALLY don't want the kid OR the family member to think we named him after the family member. And I don't want to deal with the awkwardness when FM finds out (IF he does) that we didn't name our son after him. Just. no.
I've had names picked out for aaaaaaages, and we aren't having kids for at least another 4-5 years. Boo-urns.
We talked about them, and we aren't even engaged yet. I need to keep working on him so my names will win out. I think enough repeating and it will sound good to him... familiar .. like politicians posting their signs all over so you became familiar with their names. ..... eh it's worth a shot.
Haha our unborn baby's name is Charlotte. We are not expecting her for at least two more years. If she happens to be a boy, we will probably name him Charles (after a family member).
Not weird at all. We've already picked out five boys names and five girls names, and we picked them out months ago. We aren't planning on having kids for at least a year. :) Here they are, for the curious...
Boys:
Orin Reid
Rohan Kade
Kalan Boyd
Gideon Lane
Brennan Leigh
Girls:
Amirah Sarai
Eliora Rae
Iisabela Dawn
Aaliyah Rejn
Hadassah Eve
The last name is so traditional, we wanted something very unusual for first names. And I love the ones we've picked!
Nope! We have had names picked out for years!
If it is a girl we will use a name I have love for YEARD and my mothers and grandmothers middle name (They have the same middle name so my grandma was a little bummed when my mom didn't use her middle name in my name) and if it is a bouy we will use his hebrew name (just because he likes the name. Has no religious meaning)and his grandfathers name.So,
Kaia Lynn
Benjamin Alan
Funilly enough when we looked at the initials, she would have the same initials as me and he would have the same initials as Mr. Hedgie. Complete accident but kinda funny.
@mh.albania: my FI's name is Brennan! Well, that's his middle name, but it's what he goes by.
Aw we do this too... were not getting married until 2012 either =)
We have chosen our names! We aren't sharing names with immediate family, but if a cousin of ourswould happen to choose one of our names (which hasn't happened yet), I don't think that would deter us.

We're not planning on having kids until we've been married for awhile, and our wedding isn't until 2012, but we already enjoy shooting name ideas back and forth. Is that weird? Does anyone else do that?
