Ladies...I need your ideas...Stat!

My DH and I somehow have completely different ideas about what to name our second daughter...we had ZERO trouble agreeing on the first....all of a sudden he only likes names that I feel are VERY matronly....I won't list them as to not insult....here's a list names I like....any other suggestions?

Finley

Erin

Quinn

Delaney

Cecily

Carrigan

Casey

Kennedy

    I like Quinn, Delaney, and Cecily.  But don't you have to take your DH's ideas into consideration too?

    Can you use your DH's suggestions as a mn? I wouldn't completely blow off his ideas.

    To clarify...I won't be picking a name he doesn't like...I was just providing a list of the ones I do like to see if anyone had OTHER ideas that I could share with him that maybe we would BOTH like...

     Well, since you asked...He likes Moira, Nora, and Lillith

  • Options
    I LOVE Nora, and although I don't like Lillith, I like Lillian.  I see that Charlotte is your first daughters name and that seems to be the "style" of names that your husband goes towards. Classic, pretty names. The ones you listed aren't bad but they seem more "trendy."

    I like Erin, Quinn and Cecily.
  • Options

    Cecily is pretty. Erin is fine. The rest are terrible, particularly Finley (not a girl's name, and a pretty bad boy's name0, Kennedy, and Delaney.

    Cecily is probably the one your husband would go for, since I think your husband and I have the same style -- I love all his suggested names! 

  • Options
    I only like Cecily - the other names are way too trendy for my taste (except maybe Erin, which is more 80s to me).

    I love most of your choices. My favorite is Carrigan, love that name. Also like Casey, Erin and Quinn, but maybe more for middle names.

    I don't like Kennedy at all. Cecily and Delaney are ok. Finley is too trendy.

    Suggestions? How about Amy, Bridget, Brynn, Belle, Diana, Danica, Etta, Gina, Gwen/Gwyneth/Gwendolyn, Jade, Keira, Leah, Miranda, Mia, Paige, Reese, Rose, Sage, Sophie, Summer, Tracy?

    LOVE these bolded suggestions. Rosalie is actually our girl name we like!

  • Options

    I like Erin the most from your list.  The others are NMS. 

    From your DH's list I like Nora. 

    Have you tried putting the names into www.nymbler.com?  It will give you alternatives that match your naming style.

  • Options

    Cecily would be my favorite name on your list. I think it's a lovely name. Erin is the next best name.

    I also love Eden, which isn't on your list, but somewhere along the lines of your Erin...

    Other names:

    Celina

    Celeste

    Jaclyn

    The names I put in bold remind me of a boy. I would not picture a little girl if I heard these names. I like Cecila (not so much Cecily) and I love Maura!!

    Good Luck!

    names that were on my list:

    Elizabeth (obviously), Vivienne, Noelle, Cora, Lila

    I also had Anna and Jane, but seeing as you like more modern names I though Anna and Jane might be a bit boring for you.
