Honest Opinion (Baby Name Related)
I know we still have plenty of time, so I'm not stressin' too much yet. We are pretty much set on our top three girl names, but we are having a hard time with boy names.
I really like the name Aldo (after Aldo Leopold) but Jake thinks it might be a little out there. So, he suggested Leopold and calling him Leo for short. Do you gals like either name? Is Aldo a weird name? :-)
Feel free to throw out your suggestions too.

2. Aldo - eh, not a fan. Leo - love!

It's still a contender, but as of recently lots of people in the Des Moines area having been naming their baby boys Jude. I have a feeling it's going to become pretty popular.

LOL! That would not be good. Nothing like having your child's name be associated with dog food. HA!

This is what I thought too. I've only heard Aldo in relation to the shoe store.
I like Leo/Leopold
Duh! I totally forgot about nymbler and I LOVE that site. Thanks!
I like Levi but my good friend has a Levi, so that's out. :-( Milo is cute though.
Thanks for your honesty, gals. I tend to like weird names, so sometimes I need perspective. Aldo Leopold is one of Jake and I's favorite people, so we thought it would be cool to somehow pay homage to him.

I prefer Aldo. I'm not sure what I don't like about Leo...I feel like I have a bad name association with this one - so that's, obviously, my own thing. I do like Aldo though.
I really like Milo (as suggested by nymbler). Love it.
I can get behind Leopold (Leo), but don't care for Aldo. To me, it brought up thoughts of pets--like Aldo is a good name for a dog, a cat, etc. And I did think of the Alpo similarity, too (which, hey, maybe contributes to my association to pets, haha).
I do think Milo is great, too.

I also thought the shoe when I read Aldo. I like Leo (but not a fan of the longer Leopold).
Milo is super cute (either way it's pronounced).

Am I the only person that knows of Aldo Leopold? :-) HA!
And, I've only heard of this show company a few times. I need to catch up on my fashion stuff. :-)

Honestly, I'm not a fan of Aldo or Leo. I think Leo would be a cute name for a little boy, but I can't see the name transitioning to adulthood well.
I always liked your pick Jude. Milo is good, and I also like Miles for a boy.
For some reason, Aldo reminds me of a dog. I'm sorry.
Love Leo, though!
Our crazy, wonderful life
LIke other ladies have said, Aldo makes me think of the shoe store, but I love Leo. Milo is super cute too.
Definitely this!
I like both names.
Leo seems to be gaining in popularity around here though; not sure if that's true where you live.
Aldo I really like. My only hesitation is I think there's a shoe store @ the mall with the same name. But again maybe not in your neck of the woods.
