Honest opinions wanted...
We recently found out we are having a girl and have a list of a few names that we cannot decide between:
Nora
Delaney
Clair
Peyton
Samantha
We have a one year old son named Parker Owen K. Also, any middle name suggestions for any of these names?
Thanks in advance!
Re: Baby girl
I think Nora and Samantha are both nice. The spelling of Clair is throwing me off a bit ? unless there's a family reason for that, I'd go with Claire or Clare.
Peyton and Parker is way too cutesy for me.

I like Nora and Delaney. I'd add an e to Clair. I think Payton and Parker is a little too matchy matchy for me. Samantha is a nice classic name that is underused IMO.
MN options:
For Nora: Rose, Diane, Elaine, Eleanor, Faith, Frances, Helen, Jane, June, Elizabeth, Pauline, Phoebe, Suzanne, Therese, Vivian
For Delaney: Alice, Christine, Jean, Maeve, Quinn, Reese
For Claire: Elizabeth, Elaine/Elena, Francesca
For Samantha: Brynn, Claire, Eve, Faith, Lee/Leigh, Pauline, Wren
All of this. I think Claire is lovely. Clair is just funny looking.
Double Ditto on Peyton and Parker. Way too cutesy and trendy.
I love the name Claire (this spelling...)! And I think that it would pair nicely with your DS's name. WDYT of Claire Savannah?
eta: Nora is a beautiful name, too. I just prefer Claire in the sibset.

*Taking a break*
Samantha and Claire are my favorites.
I really like Samantha. It's one of my all time favorite girl's names, but sadly it does not work with my married LN, so that would be my pick.
Samantha Clair(e)?

This.
I would 100% throw Peyton out. It is too unisex and matchy with Parker. Parker & Peyton... gag.
Of the other four I like Claire the best.... spelled with the e on the end I don't know what the last name is but if it starts with a hard K sound like Kent then I would probably not do Claire. While Claire Knightly sounds nice, Claire King sounds odd.
Delaney, Samantha, and Nora are all nice. You can't really go wrong here. Delaney always strikes me as a bit made up sounding but it goes well with Parker and I think it is a good name.
Pick a middle name with some meaning to you.

Since you already have Parker (love btw) I would go with a more feminine girl name so people don't confuse your girl with a boy.
I like Nora and Claire (I prefer this spelling).
