Baby Names

Help me with a girl name.

We are going for our gender scan next week and I would love some imput on a girl name. 

My boys are John Paul, III ( Jack) and Charles Anthony ( Charlie). 
If this is boy #3 he will be Benjamin Neal

Some of the girl names on our short list are:
Lucy Ann
Elizabeth Ann ( Ellie)
Ella Kate 

Ann is a family name so I would like to use it but I am not set on it. What girl name do you like the best and any suggestions? Obviously we like traditional names with a cute nn.

Re: Help me with a girl name.

  • Love all your names. We definitely have similar taste in names. I like all your choices but I know some people are over the "Ella"s. I love Lucy Ann but I love all the NN Elizabeth has. Ellie Ann however sounds kinda silly to me. Eliza Ann or Betty Ann sounds a little better. If we ever have a girl and and use Elizabeth I want to call he Birdie but I know that isn't for everyone
  • Love Elizabeth Ann,
    As long as you stick with Ellie and don't do izzy, my cousin is Elizabeth and they call her izzy, something about it I just don't like it.

  • Elizabeth Ann NN Betsy...I think Betsy Ann or just Betsy are adorable with your boys' names. And I like that its a bit less common than Ella/Ellie though all of your possibilities are cute.

    I love Elizabeth Ann.  One of my co-workers has a DD named this.  I would ditch Ella-- it's everywhere and I like Lucy if you choose Lucille as a formal name.

    Suggestions

    Vivian (Viv)

    Evelyn (Evie)

    Georgia (Gigi)

    Francine (Frankie)

    Margaret (Maggie)

    Eleanor (Ellie or Nora)

  • Lucy and Ella don't really have nicknames, they are already short lol If you got with Ella Kate I would name her Ella Katherine but call her Ella Kate. 

    What about the name Ann? It has a sort of in vogue quality and has never been a popular first name for women. It is sweet and simple, like Claire, but so underused. If it is special to you I would totally go with Ann. 

    I feel like Lucy and Ella are so overdone right now. They are still pretty names but you asked for an opinion. I love Elizabeth though, that is a classic that will always be timeless! And so many nicknames - Lizzy, Liz, Eliza, Beth, Betsy, etc. 

    Other suggestions:
    Elena
    Lucille (with the nickname of Lucy)
    Louisa
    Anna Katherine (Anna Kate)
    Ann Claire - and call her by both

  • I LOVE the suggestion of Louisa. I think it would be so cute to call her Lulu as a baby. I also like Eliza, Margaret, Eleanor, and Lucy. 

    What about Lucille Ann? nn Lucy
    Margaret Ann is nice, nn Maggie
    Eliza Kate
    Eliza Ann is ok but doesn't flow as well as the others
    Eleanor Kate, nn Ellie

  • Thanks for all of the great suggestions. I am sure we wont narrow it down until we actually know if its a girl or boy!

  • What about Lucy Elizabeth?

  • Definitely Elizabeth. It's gorgeous and has plenty of nns. I also think it goes best with John and Charles.

  • They are all beautiful. You can't go wrong with those choices, but I would probably do Lucy Anne.
