The one where y/n and Spencer finally decide on names for their unborn twins
~~~~~~~~~~
Being eight months pregnant and married to an FBI agent meant there were few times you and Spencer could sit down and actually talk about the baby. Today you decided it was necessary to talk about baby names.
"Spence we are so unlucky," you growled. "We are having two kids, one boy and one girl."
"How is that unlucky?" Spencer asked. "Two babies means more love-"
"And one more baby name to decide on," you complained. "I was already stressing about the one name, but now two."
"It can't be that hard," Spencer defended. "Especially since it's one boy and one girl."
"Fine then tell us your baby names," you sassed.
Spencer stayed quite unable to think of any, "By dinner tonight I'll have four for each gender."
"Deal, I'll do that same," you said.
Spencer went to his desk to think over baby names while you went to the place you had been spending most of your time, the nursery. Besides the fact the babies were opposite genders, you and Spencer felt it would be best to have them together. Spencer said some statistics show that twins develop better when they are together rather than separated. You just went with it and let it happen, it made for the room to be cleaner and overall cost to be cheaper.
On your piece of paper you so far had three girl names: Nicole, Alexandra, and Willow, and you had one boy name: Theodore (Theo for short). You were anxious for what Spencer had come up with, probably thinking of elaborate names with historical meaning.
By the time the Chinese food had come for you and Spencer to eat, you had officially come up with eight names total. You and Spencer began to eat your food in silence.
"Maybe we could say a name for each gender alternating between us," Spencer suggested.
"So I say a name, you say a name?" you restated.
Spencer nodded, "I can go first, we can start with girl names?"
"That's good," you said.
"Okay, Jennifer?"
"No," you simply stated.
"Why?" Spencer asked, confused.
"I love her, but didn't you guys like have crushes on eachother?"
Spencer sighed, "That was a long time ago-"
"I don't care," you said. "No. My turn, um Nicole?"
"So we can call her Nicki like Nicki Minaj?" Spencer snarled. "No."
You rolled your eyes and Spencer continued down his list, "Meave?"
"Absolutely not," you quickly cut him off.
"I knew you were going to say that, but it was worth a shot," Spencer said.
"Was it worth a divorce?" you asked, Spencer immediately shook his head and turned pale in the face. You never knew much about Meave because let's be real, Spencer barely knew her either, but you knew he loved her. It was always a touchy spot in your relationship. "Okay moving on, um, Alexandra?"
"I like that one," Spencer said. "Like Alex Blake?"
You nodded, "I knew she was like a mother to you."
"Thank you bunny, I love that one," Spencer smiled. "But again it is my turn, how about Jane?"
"Jane Austen, powerful female writer for her time," You said. "That is definitely a choice in our name game." Spencer smiled, glad he could make you happy and glad you remembered some of the facts he spewed at you.
"Do you like Willow?" you suggested.
"It's alright- wait-," Spencer paused. "No, I am not naming our daughter after a Taylor Swift song."
"Ugh, I was so close," you complained.
Spencer laughed, "Okay last name, Diana?"
"Oh my God," you laughed.
"What?" Spencer asked, embarrassed. "If you don't like it, you don't have to laugh at me, it is my mom's name."
You quickly cut him off, "No, Spencer, I'm not laughing at you. My last pick was also Diana, I just wasn't sure if you would have wanted it to be her name."
"I love it if you do," Spencer said. "Diana Jane Reid?"
"I love it," you smiled. "And I think she does too. DJ, please stop kicking Mommy."
"DJ?" Spencer asked.
"We don't have to use it," you said. "I kind of rolled off the tounge."
"No it's cute," Spencer said. "I'll still call her Diana, but DJ is a very cute nickname."
"Diana Jane is a perfect name," you replied. "Now, boys' names."
Spencer sighed, "Boys names were hard to think of."
"Really?" you asked. "I mean really in history, most men have been credited for being the causes of change even if they didn't do it. I thought a ton would come to you immediately."
"Ever since you watched the documentary about Watson and Crick and the DNA model you have been so obsessed with the fact Rosalind Franklin got none of the credit," Spencer said dramatically. "You aren't wrong, but I wanted something special."
"Can I go first this time?" you asked, Spencer nodded. "Theodore, Theo for short?"
Spencer smiled, "That is a good one, like Teddy Roosevelt?" You nodded. "I have one, but I'm not sure, Owen?"
"Like my shit hole of an ex-boyfriend?" you asked. "What if I picked Tobias? Same dick weeds different fonts."
"Point taken," Spencer began. "Your turn."
"Harry-"
"No," Spencer interrupted. "Sorry, but I am not naming my son after British pop star turned actor, Harry Styles."
"Fine," you said annoyed. "Your turn."
Spencer smiled, "I really like this one, Derek."
You smiled back, "Derek is a perfect name."
"So Derek for middle name? What about the first name?" Spencer asked.
"Well since Derek has been influential in both of our lives," you began. "Maybe the first name can be something more laid back, more uncommon and unrelated to us."
"What are your names?" Spencer questioned. "All my names have some sort of meaning to us: Jason and Gideon."
You immediately burst out laughing, "Did you seriously use your old mentors first AND last name as name options for our son?"
"I had to think quickly," Spencer laughed, realizing how genuinely comical the situation was.
After you finally stopped laughing you said your final two names, "Floyd and Dominic."
"Not Floyd," Spencer said disgustedly. "The last Floyd I knew was a cannibal. But I like Dominic. Dominic has religious Latin roots and means 'belonging to the lord.'"
"Dominic Derek Reid?" you said. "Dominic Derek Reid."
"Dominic Derek Reid," Spencer repeated. "Is he moving? Is he having a reaction?"
"I'm not sure," you responded. "Let me try another name I like, Jason Derek Reid."
"Jason Der-" Spencer breathed. "Bunny, you wouldn't."
"I would and I like Jason Derek really likes his name," you smiled.
"Maybe then Diana can stick to Diana and Jason can stay with going by Jason?" Spencer asked.
You giggled, "The nicknames will be too complicated. Diana and Jason are perfect names for them."
Spencer smiled at you, "We can do the final touches later."
You nodded, "Diana Jane Reid and Jason Derek Reid."
"My perfect family," Spencer smiled, giving you a chaste kiss on the lips.
