    OK first ill say Claire and Natalie are amazing names!!! love them both

    Your list is not so amazing. I do not think any of them stand up to your 2 girl's names.

    Piper-its time has past
    Harper-no
    Courtney -80's & 90's
    Emerson-boys name
    Sloane-not appealing at all
    Harlow- Harlot
    Haley-outdated

    None of them are classic beauties like your other 2

    go back and find a classic name to go with the others

    Elizabeth
    Rose
    Kathrine
    Frances
    Marie
    Anna
    teresa
    Margot

    either of them are a lot better!

    Ditto what PPs have said - your list names are subpar in comparison to DDs names. How about: Georgia, Liana, Phoebe, Eva, Holly, Rosa, Alexa, Vera, Nora, Violet, Adele, Stella, Ruby, Marcy, Zoe, Dora, Lydia, Jasmine. Good luck!
  • Options
    Harper and Piper are adorable but way overdone. For classic names I like Ruby, Amelia and Jane. For more unisex or rare let's say, Emerson is nice and I like Sterling ( this is in my personal top 2)

    I think Eliza is great!

    Just want to say that Emerson (though has been seen more on girls lately) is Not a unisex or even remotely feminine name. The other ones I will keep my mouth shut on but that one just bugs me. And the PP suggestion of sterling kind of goes into the 'fails in comparison' category compared to your other two daughters names.

    I agree with PPs that a classic name or even one that's more common but also a bit more feminine would work so well with your other girls, their names are so beautiful.

    So how about (and there may be some repeats):
    Amelia
    Jane
    Katherine
    Brooke
    Elise
    Julia/Julianna
    Lila
    Joanne/Joanna
    Renee
    Meredith
    Abigail
    Can't think of any more right now I'm too tired.

    Sorry if I came off as harsh but I think the names you listed just kind of lack something next to your other girls names.

    Now we're talking. That's much better. I like Elizabeth better than Eliza, but Eliza trumps all the names on your list. Ava is lovely, popular, but still lovely.

    MUCH BETTER.

    I think Ava goes best with your daughters. Admittidly, I'm not a big fan of Eliza, it seems incomplete to me.

    Claire and Natalie are lovely! None of these other names stack up. Most are masculine or surname-y. Others, like Piper and Haley, don't fit the style of Claire and Natalie. Eliza is gorgeous!

    ^^ also pretty sure sterling is not only a type of silver, but a name for a young male horse and a truck/trailer/automotive company.
    You don't want that for a little girl.

    Love Claire and Natalie but I agree this list doesn't have names as great as those. Both of your existing names have French roots without being overtly French, so here are a few ideas that go with that trend if you like it:


    Margot

    Amy

    Caroline

    Cecilia

    Elaine

    Felicity

    Flora

    Louisa

    Emerson and Sterling are not unisex. They are one hundred percent masculine.

    Well I suppose I am drawn to masculine name then. Although Sterling just has this beautiful ring in my opinion and I like some names that are surprising.

    Claire and Natalie are beautiful. This entire list doesn't nearly compare to your daughter's names. I'm sorry, I don't like any names on your list. Some great suggestions are sure to come.
    100% agreed. Claire and Natalie are classic and beautiful. Your list is either trendy, masculine, or dated.

    Anna, Eleanor, Amelia, Grace, Hazel, Lucy, Ruby, Stella, Victoria

    Stick with classic names to match your other daughters. Eliza is my favorite to go with Claire and Natalie. Previous posters have given many other great suggestions too (e.g. Victoria, Anna, Amy, Renee, Julia, Meredith, Brooke, Elise, Jane, etc.).

    Please burn that original list you posted. Seriously, all of them were terrible (except maybe Sloane, but I still don't like it with your other daughters names).

    HAha! This is funny, I love the "burn the list!" Ok, fair I asked for opinions! :) Right now, I really want Lola, as a nickname somehow...not sure how that will work. Or Blake as a middle name for her ( my husbands name) so I am still working on it! Interestingly, my hubs likes Sloane and Harper the most. I guess time will tell!

    Ava is super popular right now. But I love Anna. I also like Margaret or Georgia to go along with your other girls.

    Why not just name her Lola?

    And this is in general not just towards you, I don't get people who want to use their husbands name as a daughters middle name. Daughter will have his last name anyway (like 95% of the time) why do you need to double up on honor names? Why not honor a female relative instead?

    in my case , my maiden name is the same as my married ( very common last name) and i already honored a family member with DD 2 name. So that is my case....i like the name too!

    I don't like the list you have combined with the names you already have.

    Penelope. Caroline. Sarah. Emma. Harriet. Elizabeth.
  • Options
    @rickey, Lola is a diminutive of Dolores... or you could just name her Lola, if you know that's what you want to call her. Lola Blake could be cute. Personally, I do not care for Blake for a girl (it's masculine not unisex) but I suppose as a middle name to honor your husband would trump that.

    Curious what your husband's middle name is? Just wondering if a feminine version of his middle name would be better than Blake...
