Which girl name?

I'm obsessing even though we don't know what we're having yet...lol.

So, here are my top girl favs...(no clue why they are all E names)

Elise Rhianne (DH's mn is Ryan)

Evangeline Kate (Kate after my mom, nn Evie)

Emilia Kate (nn Mila)

Last name starts with B and is one syllable. TIA!

Re: Which girl name?

  • I like them all.  I especially love the name Mila, but I think it is too close to Miles.

    I have my doubts with that too, but I just LOVE it. I think that written they are too close, but spoken it doesn't bother me as much.

  • Yea, I kinda agree with that.  I've always loved that name.
  • I despise nicknames.

    I like Elise.

  • I love them all, but Evangeline is my favorite.

  • I love them all, but I prefer Rhiannon over Rhianne only because that's my name.

    I like Elise.

    I always thought I despised nicknames too, but I can't see me giving a child the name Evie as a formal name : )  But I also know that I would not say Evangeline all the time. I catch myself shortening the boys' names and they aren't even long. LOL.

  • I think Evangeline Kate is gorgeous.

  • I like Evangeline best!

    And I'm the opposite of Sumner - I loathe nickname names as names.  It bugs me so much.  I think everyone should have a formal name.  Silly pet peeve I guess.

    My SIL's name is Jenny.  Just Jenny.  I think it's so strange.

  • Definitely Evangeline Kate!  I'm obviously partial to Evangeline and if I didn't want to use all Chinese middle names we would have used the middle name Kate.  I think it's beautiful.

    Evangeline Kate reminds me of Evangeline Lilly, who plays the character Kate on LOST.

    I, of course, choose Emilia. Beautiful name for beautiful girls ;)

  • Elise Rhianne is beautiful.  I also like Emilia Rhianne (not one of your choices, I know, but I still think it's pretty).

     I agree with the PP that Evangeline Kate reminds me of Evangeline Lily - who plays a character named Kate on LOST.

  • I love the name Evangeline. ?I know a little girl with that name, and she goes by the whole name. ?It's no more of a mouthful than Elizabeth, and plenty of people use that name without shortening it. ?I do like Evie as a nn, though.

  • They are all so pretty! Elise was one of my top names for a girl. Evangeline is a name that I love too but DH would never go for. Hmm... I vote for Elise Rhianne but you can't go wrong with this list, IMO. GL!
  • Emilia - Mila.  Mila is DH's top favorite girl name if we have a girl!

  • I like them all but I like Elise the best. It's what we'll name a girl if we have another one.
