Looking for a little help with girls names. We have an Ava and are trying for something a bit less common this time. Middle name will either be Mae or Anna Mae after a great grandmother.
I vote Brenna instead of Brynn and Charlotte instead of Charlie. I don't even know what you were going for with Braya and Cambrie. I like Anna as a fn, but it's a little matchy with Ava.
Other suggestions: Alice Catherine Ruby Claire Clara Emmeline Fiona Isla Matilda Nora Olivia Phoebe Violet
Started adoption process in Jan. 2011.
3 failed matches in 2012.
Surprise pregnancy in Aug. 2012. Precious baby boy "HC" born May 2013.
Began researching EA in 2014.
No longer pursuing EA due to fibroid complications.
I actually really like Charlie ONLY as a nickname for Charlotte. I'm really not a fan of the other names. Braya, and anything that starts with "bray," makes me think of a donkey.
Brynn is okay, so that would be my second choice.
Cambrie? I've never heard of that, but I hate it. I don't feel like it is a name that would grow with your girl at all...it's too cutesy.
Re: VOTE HERE!
ETA: IMHO you should keep looking. Ava may be common but it is super pretty. None of the names on your poll are as nice.

Suggestions:
Bronwen
Charlotte
Dahlia
Aria
Alexandra (w/ NN Alex if you like masculine NNs).
To go with Ava, but not so popular, I'd suggest Mae, Maya, Isla, Jane, Ivy (maybe too matchy), Mary, Ruth, Joan, June, Gwen.
Good luck...naming is hard!
