Re: Please give your opinion on girl names!
Have to be honest, both Brooklyn and Parker = nms.
Between the two, I'd lean towards Parker, but not a fan of "Parks" at all.
What about Avery Grace?
Agreed.
Personally, names of places aren't my style, but out of all the three, Brooklyn Grace is the best...
and Parker...sounds more like a boys name.

My boss' (male) dog's name is Parker, and he goes by Par or Park, so for that alone (aside from the fact I think of Parker as more of a boy's name) I have to say this is NMS at all for a baby girl.
And I reeeeally, really don't like Brooklyn. Brooke, OK. Lynn, OK. Brooklyn, can't stand. It's a borough, but as a name it screams umm... nevermind. I don't want to offend you, or others w/DD's named Bklyn.
Avery Grace is lovely.
But, who cares what we think? If you or DH agree on Brooklyn or Parker, go for it, of course.

I love Brooklyn. We were settled on that name for a while, then DH decided that he only likes it instead of loving it, lol. We've since changed to Sienna. Anyway, I love Brooklyn Grace. I have to agree with PPs about Parks - I don't like it at all. And I def think of a boy when I hear Parker. But that's never stopped anyone before, and it's a cute name! GL on finding something you both love.
I'm sure you've noticed but a ton of people are going to tell you that Parker sounds like a boy name...trust me, it's one of our girl choices, too! Who cares though..it's a super cute name for a girl! Of course I love Brooklyn since my name is Brooke...I love how Brooklyn Grace sounds- so pretty!
But I say go with Parker Grace...LOVE it!!!
Yes, I agree with Brooketarne. I love Parker, but alot of people on these boards do not like it. One of our top 3 names for a girl is Parker Delaney. I say go for it! Although, I'm not sure about Parks.
I'm from NY, and I love Brooklyn!!! LOL
I live in the south and I don't like Brooklyn. It has nothing to do with double names. It sounds WT to me. Sorry!
Parker sounds like a boy name. I really dislike it for a girl.
Honestly Brooklyn sounds trashy to me....
Parker is NMS but cute!
after anovulatory diagnosis and TTC for 1 1/2yrs with several medicated cycles and one chemical pregnancy, we have our first bundle of joy!
IT'S A GIRL!

I don't take one single minute for granted.
Parker is a boy's name. And Parks as a nn is ridiculous.
Brooklyn sounds white trash to me as well.
Avery Grace is by far the best thing you have going on here.
Agreed. We named out DD Carson, and I love love love it, but many have felt the need to tell me it is a boys name. Oh well. Go with what you love.Parker is cute......and I love AVery
LOVE LOVE LOVE Parker!!!
It was one of our names when we were deciding on girls' names, but we went for another name for our little girl. Yes, many people feel they need to tell me it's a boy's name, but we don't care, we love it!
This.

Parker for a girl - not a fan ::cringe:: at "Parks" as a nn, there is just nothing feminine about that. It sounds like a nn a guy would get in college by a fraternity brother or something.
Brooklyn - not a fan, also a harsh sounding name for a girl.
I'd compromise and name her Brooke
