Filomena is my grandmother's name...I think that's the main reason why I love it as much as I do. Clara Helene is really pretty...thanks for that suggestion.




This advice is awesome...Helena...

Oooh.

I love all three, to be honest. If I had to pick, I would go with Adelaide Scarlett. I just think Adelaide is beautiful. Ainsley is nice, but it's kind of cutsie for me, I guess, while...

DBF and I have been together over a year, and while we are no where close to having kids, we do like to discuss hypothetical baby names from time to time.

He is absolutely DESPERATE to name his...

I LOVE Clara...such a beautiful name! I'm not a huge fan of Clara with a middle name that ends in A, however...I feel like the sounds are too similar. I do love Clara Marie (my middle name as well!)...

Don't go with Juliet as the first name if you really don't like Julie (I don't either). I think Maeve Juliet is beautiful, and it sounds like a good compromise. I think Annabel is a little frillier...

My favorites...Annika Maeve and Eliose Pearl.

I sort of like it...I would also be concerned that people would hear "Elias" and thus misspeak or misspell it. Ultimately, you have to go with what you love, but if I were making the decision, I...

I LOVE Atticus...it's my and DBF's top choice for our future son. He likes the classical connection, while I love the literary reference to Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird. I definitely...

Hey berries. A few days ago, the name Sunny popped into my head--now, I'm nowhere near pregnant, but I can't help but think that Sunny would be an adorable nickname for a little girl. What do you...

I think Penelope Pearl is sweet...but what letter does your last name begin with? I'm sure you would have mentioned if it was P, but if it is, you may want to stick another letter in there just to...

bryanna, I don't know if this truly answers your question, but this helped me back when I was wondering the same thing about a couple of names on my short list. It's the Social Security...

Yeah, I wouldn't go with Zayden. If I were you, I would be cautious about just sticking a Z onto a name that is more commonly heard with another letter...I think it's easy to cross the line into...

I would shy away from a name if I didn't like the nn, because I feel like it would be a content battle to keep people from using her full name rather than the common nn.

With that said, though, my...

I agree 100% with the first response, taylorblueskye. Jason is just not a name that can make the jump from masculine to feminine. And the spelling "Jaysen" is just awful. So awful. I don't mean...

I think Jennifer fits fine as a mn for both Mairead and Eloise...or have you considered just using Jen?

I don't really like Monday as a name in general...I agree with the point teacherma made...associations like "a case of the Mondays," etc. Also the day-of-the-week name makes me think Wednesday...

Atticus is DBF and my first choice for our (somewhat distant!) future baby boy for the same reason as you. I don't think that all names need nns, so I'm fine with just calling him Atticus. My...

I like Annika Eve of the options you listed. I know an Annika Ione, which I always liked...that could be another to consider!

Mary Angelique & Victoria Mary - I'm just so-so about these.
Margaret May - This is a tad too alliterative for my personal taste.
Grace Rebecca - I like these two together, and I also think that...

I'm not a huge fan of Quinalyn...to me it does sound made up, and a bit too sugary. I'm kind of neutral on some of the names you suggested, but here are my thoughts:

I love Beatrix, but I don't...

I can't get past the Pepper Anne association from the old cartoon, and my aunt had a dog named Pepper when I was growing up. Not that there aren't plenty of dogs named things like Lily and Sophie,...

Thanks, berries! The input is great. I didn't realize Thay-lee-uh was the proper pronunciation, and I have to say it's growing on me.

I also voted Foster Kingsley, but I like any of the Foster options.

I'm super into sibsets (I have no idea why!), and to me, Eloise and Beatrix have a slightly British vibe. I think Foster fits...

Personally, I don't think that Margaret and Violet work well together. I would choose one or the other and then go with a different middle name.

The only Margaret I know goes by Maggie, so...

My BF and I are a long way from actually TTC, but it's still fun to talk baby names! He's very into mythology and the Classics, and he favors names that reflect that. We don't seem to have the same...
