Baby Names

What about Paige?

We found out today we are having a little girl! ?Paige is one of our front runners, but DH is second guessing it because when he mentioned it to some coworkers they didn't say anything. ?Nothing negative, but nothing positive either. ?I have to admit, I've gotten the same reaction. ?Is it just a blah name?

Re: What about Paige?

  • I love Paige! If I ever have a little girl this will most likely be her name. I have gotten mixed reactions when I mention the name to people too, seems to be mainly men who aren't sure about it. They have comments like "turning the page?" But I think it is nice and feminine and not trendy, which is also a plus in my opinion.
  • Paige is kind of vanilla IMO. You know, not baaad but not really cute or exciting either.  What matters is if YOU and dh like it, then go for it.

  • I've always liked that name but DH hates it so I won't be using it anytime soon.

  • NMS, but if you love it that is all that matters!

  • I like it.  I think people generally don't respond with too much excitement because whatever name you say is most likely not the name they would choose for their child.  We aren't sharing this time around (IRL) because I don't want to be disappointed with people's reactions.  It's a big deal to DH and I, but not really to others (except our immediate families).  
  • I think it's a nice name, and not overused.

  • I think it's an okay name, nms really.  BUT, we have 3 Paige's just in one grade level at school this year.  Not sure if it's becoming more popular, or if that matters to you!

    I agree! I do think it is kind of a blah name. I think I feel that way about a lot of one syllable names though. I tend to like them better as middle names.

  • Is it extremely popular? no. Is it a blah name? nope.

    Never second guess because of your friends. If you really like it, go for it. You are the one who will be saying it for the rest of your life.. Ya know?

  • I like it a lot.  I think that it is classy and just pretty in general.  Plus, I only know one Pagie IRL.

  • LOVE Paige! My BFF is naming her future DD Paige. All our friends think it's adorable. It's not blah in the slightest. Blah names to me are like Anne or something (although I love Anne!). 
  • I think it is a cute name, but with my last name it sounds horrible.  Our last name starts with a P.  We had considered it as a MN, if we ever had a girl.
  • I love Paige, but it is my middle name.  My mom said that she wished she had given me Paige as a fn.

  • My daughter's name is Lucca Paige. We liked Paige more for a middle name. It really is a cute and fun name.
