Baby Names

Ugh loved the name now...

My husband and I were pretty set on Ava Claire for our daughter's name. I'm beginning to think it may not be the "right" name. I'm concerned partially because I've heard Ava is so popular and the popularity thing is kinda getting to me. We also like the names Brooke and Claire.  What do you guys think of the name? Our last name is very common: Phillips.

    my best friend's daughter's name is Ava Claire. i love it! we call her Ava Claire Boo Bear :)

    Ugh, that's a good vote against it.  Anytime you have to hear Boo Bear means it's time to shut it dow.

     I don't either but everyone else I know does :)

    Thanks ladies for your insight...maybe we'll just wait and see what she looks like when she's here.

  • I love the name you picked, Ava is so pretty, I think it is perfect I wouldn't change it just because there is a chance it is becoming popular!

  • Love Ava Claire.
  • Love it.  Our daughter is Claire and I would use Ava for our next daughter although it is getting a little too popular for me.  Might still use it though as I don't personally know any Ava's.  I like Brooke as well but while all of these names are popular I only know several Brooke's - don't know any Ava's or Claire's (except my daughter obviously)
  • Both Ava and Claire work well with your last name! Actually so does Brooke. FWIW my friend just named her new DD Claire Elizabeth.
  • It is a pretty name.  This is also how DH and I loved Victoria Marie and after so many people said they would call LO Tori or Vicki then we ended up looking for something else.

    I think it's nice.  If you love it...keep it in mind.  You may look for another name and find that this is the only name for her.  ;-)

     

    GL!

  • I like Claire better then brooke and ava.

  • I like Ava Claire :)  Brooke is becoming really popular too!

  • What about Clara Brooke Phillips? Still has the same kind of sound, but slightly different name. Not nearly as popular!
