Baby Names

What do you think?

Hi Ladies..I am 12 weeks pregnant with our second child. Our first is Elizabeth Adelle (Adelle is DH's grandmothers name). We call her Libby for a nn. 

We're leaning towards

Samantha Corinne for a girl (Corinne is my grandma's name) Maybe Sammy for a nickname. 

and

Charles Henry for a boy, with Charlie as the nn.

the next two contenders are

Josephine Alice (Josie)

and

Patrick David

Any opinions would be great...Thanks!!! 

 

 

Re: What do you think?

  • I really like Josephine/Josie better than Samantha. Samantha reminds me too much of the 80's/90's and Josephine seems more classic. Charles Henry is a wonderful name!

  • I think they are all very nice, I love the girl names because they are all very traditional names, nothing off the wall.
  • I really like Josephine. The MN is just ok.

     

    I love Charles Henry for a boy.

  • Love the nn Libby!

    I definitely prefer Josephine over Samatha. I agree with PP, Samatha reminds of the 80s.

    I also love Corrine as a first name. I think Corrine Alice sounds adorable.

    Josie is also very cute.

    Charles Henry and Patrick David are very nice names.

  • I think Josie is so cute with Libby.  I am not a fan of Samantha but I do like Corinne.  For a boy I like Charles Henry a lot.

  • Samantha is nice, but I like Josephine better.  Both Corinne and Alice are very nice, too.  (Corinne is also my grandmother's name and we used it for a middle name).

    Love both your boy names, but I like Charles Henry just a little more than Patrick David.

  • I like Josephine (Josie) better than Samantha (Sammy). Charles is okay, but I love the nn Charlie.  I dont know how you feel about this, but have you considered using Charlie for a girl?

  • Samantha is one of my favorite girl names. Classic and beautiful. It's a timeless name. Charles Henry is really, really nice. I love both of those a lot!
  • I much prefer Josephine and Patrick. I do like Charles Henry though too. I don't like Samantha at all.

  • My middle name is Elizabeth and I always wanted to name my daughter Elizabeth and call her Libby, but my husband doesn't like Libby and my SIL's name is Elizabeth. I love Samantha Corrine I think that's really pretty. I also like Charles Henry. Very good choices.
  • I love them all.  I think I prefer Samantha to Josephine.  I really like the name Patrick David.  In my opinion, Charles is a little trendy right now.
  • I absolute love your first daughter's name.

    I am not a big fan of Samantha (or the nn Sammy), but I do like Corinne.   I really like the name Josephine.

    Love both  your boys names, but lean toward Patrick David. 

  • Samantha and Patrick
  • Thanks so much ladies for all of the opinions!! We have nixed Samantha-DH said he just didn't like how androgynous the nn "Sammy" seemed. So, we narrowed it down to Josephine as a first name and either Corinne or Alice for the mn. Luckily we still have a while to figure which we'd want! We're still stuck on boys names at the moment...and I have this feeling that this baby will be a boy-so we might have to venture into the boy threshold a little further! Thanks again!
