There are pros and cons to babies at any age and we're allowed to have preferences, obviously. But I would caution you ladies not to overthink this! Babies are a blessing at any age, and I can't...

I don't get it. Seems a little out there.

No, there isn't a name that I wouldn't use because of popularity alone. All of my kids have top 100 names, some in the top 10. I'm going after a name that I love, that sounds nice with our last name,...

Yes, Edward Redding is a great name and I think it goes great with Hazel. Very handsome name.

I love it and it has been on my long list for ages.

I love Alice and Ingrid, but they are all very nice!

Our last name is a word name, so I avoid word names to avoid having my child's name sound like a weird sentence or phrase when put together.

I always thought it was Looch-ian.

I like it on a girl, especially with that spelling.

I've done it. The actual middle name was Anne and I used a different version of it as a first name later.

I like Ruby Caroline the best.

I tried to like it once (we are Catholic), but I just couldn't. I do like Henriette, which is similar. I just don't think Bernadette has any good nicknames, and I don't find the "burn" syllable...

That is bizzare and I would never have put those two together. My only thought is that maybe Bentley is actually a family surname of some kind with special meaning. But still...

We are in a catholic school and I would say that it is mixed. People tend to favor names from their own ethnic backgrounds, and a lot of those names are also saint names. There are about 3 Anthony's...

I love a lot of dated names, mostly from the 80's: Christine, Rebecca, Michelle, Laura/Laurie...I'm sure there are more.

Christina Lorraine is a great name. Christa is NMS and seems way more dated than Christina.

Karenna is pretty....I'd use it over Karen, I think.

Funny...yeah, our Elizabeth was also supposed to be either Libby or Betsy, depending on which one fit her better as her personality came out, and then the older kids took over and started calling her...

I am so tired of all the Vivians at this point. There are just too many coming at once and I see it as trendy at this point, even though it really isn't. I LOVE Vanessa, just because I think it's...

I think it would be fine in your situation. I have a German last name, but the German part of our heritage is so far removed at this point with so many other things mixed in that it would seem...

Marie Christine
Marie Edith (since you love that one)
Marie Lucille
Marie Patricia
Marie Ruth
Marie Caroline
Marie Elizabeth

Jack is a nickname for John, so I don't think Jude would work at all. Maybe if you used a name like Judah with a sibling Jack, then you could have both one day.

I really don't care for it. It sounds like the name of some kind of wine cooler or something. I do like the name Camber...you could still use Cami for a nickname. I think it sounds a little more...

It's not horrible, but I would keep looking. I also have a last name that is a "word" and so many names are either actual word names, or names that sound very close to an actual word, that when you...

Those are wonderful names! Love all three!
