HELP - I'm having a girl tomorrow and have no name

TMs1stBaby

We are stuck.  Here's what we know.  The middle name will be Martell.  That is a family name and non-negotiable.  Last name will be two sylables and start with an M - also non-negotiable.  I like traditional names that transition well into adulthood and don't end in "ie" or "y"  My favorite name is Allison, but that has been veto'd by DH.  DH likes more current names his favorite is Zoey, which I veto'd.  One name that we have somewhat agreed on is Leah - but I am not sold.  Please give me some ideas and input. 

Thanks!

You could put a 'Ma' in front of that 'Leah'.. Malia! (I am biased here lol)

Lyla, sort of like Leah, but cuter IMO and will make Martell sound "girlier"

caroline?

Allison is one of my favorite names, too.  Seems like we have similar tastes.  My DD is Kate, but other names I like are Elizabeth, Nora, Georgia, Sarah....

I went to Nymbler.com and plugged in Allison for inspiration.  here's what it suggested:

Jocelyn, Gabrielle, Alice, Breanna, Clarissa, Destiny, Natalie, Alexandra, Danielle, Julianne, Sabrina, Morgan, Brooke, Emerald, Miranda

Good luck!  BTW, I love Allison - it's what we had picked out if DS had been a girl.

Leah is a beautiful name IMO.

If you like traditional names, what about something like Victoria or Elizabeth?  I think those are strong and never go out of style.  We have girls in the family named Clara and Ophelia and I think those are pretty.  I also like Evelyn.

What about Abigail?  Similar to Allison which you like, but you can call her Abby if you want and that is similar to Zoey for your DH.  Obviously I am bias!  LOL!

I love so many of these suggestions.  I need to get DH on board with something.  I feel like a lot of the names mentioned have already been discussed and discarded.  I love Caroline, Kate, Clara.  Lyla is cute too, but DH suggested Delilah at one point and I am nervous that if I bring up Lyla - he'll go back to that.

Mrs. E

Lilly or Lily?

ABMcKinney

I love Jillian and Sabrina. Both are so pretty! And both go really good with Martell.

I was totally thinking this!  I love it!  I also think it is a beautiful name that will transition well into adulthood.

DD's name is Leah so I'm biased

Lyla is a beautiful name too. I've always loved Katherine (or Kate) Elizabeth, Meghan, and Andrea

Jotyla - I kid, I kid!

Lauren and Kirby are my current and random favorites.

We were recently in this situation and my DH liked trendier names while I liked those which were more traditional.  I love Hannah, Colleen, Isla (also Darcy, but it ends in a "y").  GL!

Might be a little biased, but I like Lauren
