    No, DH hates nn based on a shortened version of a name, so her nn will have nothing to do with her given name. For example, DD is Monkey and DS is Krakken.

    I'm glad that everyone thinks that Morgana is not a name that new DD will hate. Makes me feel alot better about the fact that I'm leaning towards it.

    Everyone has their own taste & you have to go with what feels right to you & hubby. I voted for Meredith in your poll, I think because it feels more feminine to me. Personally I love the name Morgan for a boy, just not so crazy about Morgana. But if Morgana is what you both are feeling for baby girl, then go for it! At least she won't be one of a thousand Isabellas at school when she's older.

    I did vote for Meredith because I felt Morgana was a little too clunky but there is nothing wrong with it if you both love it. I prefer just Morgan, but on a little boy. I did actually used to like Morgana but Meredith seems softer to me.

    I absolutely love Morgana! It got my vote 100% in your poll. Meredith is nice, but I love Morgana so much more. Madelaine and Morgana fit perfectly together, imo, and I couldn't for the life of me understand why Meredith kept getting more votes! (I still can't, lol. Morgana Frances is stunning!) I do like that Morgana is reminiscent of King Arthur. I'm a writer, and the one project I took on with my sister, our lead character was Morgana, so I have very positive associations with the name. I love it. It's so striking and beautiful. I know someone else planning on using Morgana (Morgana Lily is her combo), so I think it's just great. Madelaine, Micah, and Morgana is utterly perfect imo! I would go for it.

    I missed your poll; I don't see anything wrong with Morgana at all though! I would guess that Meredith is more familiar and that might be why it got more votes.

    i like Morgana a lot more than Meredith! I voted for it last time too ^_^

    I think Meredith sounds so old fashioned and Morgana sounds fresher, as it's not used nearly as much. I love the connection to Arthurian legend (even if she was sort of the bad guy) and the sound is gorgeous.

    I think as long as you love the name it doesn't matter if everyone loves it. I did vote for Meredith but only slightly over Morgana.

    I voted for Meredith, but I think both are fine choices. Sometimes a vote just helps you cement your opinion. I remember being a little girl, and unable to choose between pink or blue glasses.. my mom, the eye doctor and my brother voted blue and all that made me realize was that I really wanted pink! Sometimes things just work that way.

    Morgana is a perfectly fine name and if it's what you and your DH really want, then go for it.
