Adopting baby girl--need name advice

[jules385]

My hubby and I are adopting a bay girl--I work in a nursery and am not a fan of the popular/common names, I see them all the time. Right now we have talked about these names:
Maevyn-getting flack from family about this one
Willow Raine
Ella Rose(Family name)
Eden Laurel
Lilah-need middle name
No T names--last name starts with T
Thanks for suggestions!

Congrats! I love Laurel as a first name.

Lilah- If you don't like common names I would stay away from this one. Think about all the Lilys/Lilly/Lillian/Lola/Leila/Laila/Laylas

I like Eden Laurel on your list. If you don't want a popular name stay away from Ella Rose, I hear both of those names a lot. But if they are family names maybe you could use one or both for the middle name. Something like Juliet Ella Rose would be pretty. Or Rose as a first name is more rare, or a variation of Rose: Rosemary, Rosalie, etc.

Avalon
Bronwyn
Juliet
Laurel/Lauren
Brielle
June
Adele
Adelaide
Tessa

Good luck! And congratulations on the adoption!

Laurel is a very lovely choice... and Adele has been growing on me... very lovely name too.

Maevyn- What about Maeva or Maeve? I like both of those.

Willow Raine- I not a huge fan of Willow. This combo is a little to naturey for my taste.

Ella Rose(Family name)- If you dont want a popular name then I would avoid Ella. There are tons of Ella/Ellie/Elle/Elizabeth/Eleanor right now.

Eden Laurel- I really like this combo. It flows very well. This one get my vote.

Lilah- I prefer the spelling Lila. I love this name. It is so sweet, it is becoming more popular though. Maybe Lila Rose?

Eden Laurel gets my vote.

I like Willow, but not with Raine...too environemntalist/ hippie. Willow Rose is nicer. Ella Rose is very feminine, clean, and accessible. Will age nicely as well.
