edited June 2015 in Baby Names
Finally starting to focus on the name thing, girl names have been hard for me and not happy with any suggestions my friends have so figured I'd put it out to internet strangers!! :-j DS is Nathaniel but we call him Nate, keeping that in consideration

    Honestly the only one I don't care for is Ivy Leigh because it sounds too close to Ivy League.  I voted for Gwenyth.

    Never even occurred, to me, but I can see that. Thanks!

    I voted Gwenyth Anne (though I believe the correct seplling is Gwyneth which I prefer).
    I also really liked Naomi Anne, but I think it's too matchy with your son.
    Ivy Leigh immediately makes me think ivy league.
    I feel like Hope Anne sounds really choppy. I think Hope would sound better with a longer middle name.
    Isabel and Emma are nice names, I'm just not a fan of how popular they are right now.

    My vote was for Gwenyth Anne. I love using a family name in the middle name spot, and of the names listed I think Gwenyth goes the best with Anne. I love Anne with the -e, by the way. Also, I think Gwen & Nate are really cute sibset nn's.

    I voted Gwyneth Ann. But I think Gwyneth Louise is nice, too.

    I really dislike the name Gwyneth! I know I'm in the minority here but whateva. I love the name Hope. It's simple and will age well! Plus, I love a virtue name!

    EDD for #1: 3/19/17

    Naomi and Nate are so close, but I really love Naomi best of your choices. It is such a lovely, underused Biblical name. I also like Ivy, but not with Leigh. Isabel is pretty too. Emma is overdone for me, and I am not a huge fan of Hope or Gwenyth. Love the middle name Louise though! Isabel Louise would be pretty!

    This was the first thing I noticed too. I love Ivy but definitely not with Leigh. I voted for Hope by default.

    I love Ivy but not with Leigh. Ivy Ann or Ivy Louise work. Or Ivy Isabel. Suggest- Ivy Eileen,m, Ivy May, Ivy Olivia, Ivy Claire
