All my friends are having girls! So exciting, kinda makes me want one!

I was always into how the family names sound together, DH, Lauren, Shane, & Sienna. (my vote) I vetoed a lot due to that fact that a name didn’t sound good with ours. Also, some people are into the whole names all starting with the same letter.

Griffin and Owen both end with that in or en sound so if we have another I think it will have to be the same.

I also have that association problem. I know to many people and if they have that name, even if they aren’t a relative I don’t like to use it. We have this naughty little girl on our block named Kayla and so I don’t like that name. There is nothing wrong with the name and if I didn’t know her, I would probably like it. But you know the whole association of the name with her…….

And I’m going on and on…. Thus why I didn’t have a name for either of my children until the week that they were born! I talked myself out of a lot of names.

YAYYYY for girls! I am partial to Kylie, its my dd’s name (Kylie Noelle). I’m like Erica, I didn’t have either of my kids names picked out until the VERY end. My mom told me they wouldn’t let me take them home without names (which isn’t true BTW). I also like Kaylee. Congrats!

congrats!

names are hard (but fun!)

Maybe something to go w/ Shane? Like Sienna…

do you ‘need’ a name from a particular cultural background (Irish?)

or do you want to name after someone special?

for example: I wanted to stay away from popular names and I wanted something biblical and I ‘needed’ to name after people…

that’s just ME though…

Simona? (going with the ‘S’)

Susanna?

I voted for Michaela. I just like how it sounds. We had Cooper’s name picked out before we knew we were having a boy, we had one of each. Both family names, Cooper is actually “John Cooper” John after dh’s grandfather. And our little girl will/would be Caroline Harrison (Harrision) is a family name on dh’s side and my mom’s first name is Carol and my dad’s middle name is Carl so it kinda hits on both.. but I do think the name Caroline is beautiful for a girl as well and it sounds good with Shane too. sorry to Ramble.

So exciting! I bet Shane will be a great big brother!! And your little girl will always have a big brother to watch over her.

I personally like Kayla, but they’re all nice!

Amy – that’s funny, our second choice for a girl name, after Paige, was Lauren!

Well, you can if you want to… I am a “junior”. My mother’s name is Ann Marie also…..

Quite a story for another day, but that was NOT supposed to be my name!

The “K” names are pretty popular around here, and I’m one that likes traditional names too. But I think Michaela is a nice name. like Erica, I associate so many names with kids I know… and Michaela was one of the nicest students I had!

thanks everyone..

here is some more info:

As for finding a name that goes with our family.. dh’s name is Kevin… and our last name is Fischman.

Haha laura.. i never intentionally tried doing irish names.. but they do all sound irish huh?

And Dh is the one that like the K’s… so thats why i threw a couple of them up there..

And i do like Brooke too.. but dh doesnt as much.. cuz he knew one.

AGAIN i am open to ANY recommendations!! i am sooooo stunted on this one!

So, I love the website nymbler.com. you put in a name you like & it gives you tons of ideas for similar-type names. We used it to help name Evan b/c we wanted names the went well w/ Brodie. So, we put in Brodie & it spit out lots of suggestions.

When I put in Shane some of the top ones were:

Sheila, Sian, Britt, Lesley, Skye, Wynne, Shannon, Melanie, Bridget, Rory, Erin (I’m partial to that one-lol), Tamara, Mackenzie…

There are tons more, but just thought I’d share the site!
