Baby Names

Girl name opinion...

The husband and I are having a hard time agreeing on a name.  I have a favorite but I am not sure I am going to win him over on it, nor do I know if I want to "win" him on it, I would rather he love the name as much as me.  So currently we are considering the following names, please share your opinions.  Older sibling is Calvin Michael and our last names starts with a P and is 3 syllables. We would like to use the middle name Elizabeth but will not depending on what first name we choose since it doesn't go well with all the choices.  So really, MN's  are still completely up in the air, as just deciding on a first name is our priority currently.  :)

Claire

Clara

Stella

Gwyneth (NN: Gwen)

Elena (NN:  Ella or Ellie)

Ella or Ellie as a stand alone first name

Paige

  • I love Claire!  It was our daughter's name for a while in the beginning, but our last name is one syllable so we decided against it.  It's beautiful and if you have a long last name, it's perfect!

  • I like all of the names except Paige (I like Paige, but think it sounds better as a mn.)

    Claire

    Elena

    Stella

    Ella/Ellie

    Clara

    Gwyneth

  • My order of preference pretty much matches the order you listed them in, but depending on flow with your LN, I might prefer Clara to Claire. I'm not really a fan of Ella or Ellie as a NN for Elena and I have never really liked Paige. I think the first 4 are good matches with Calvin and are pretty.

    I am having a bit of hard time making the NN connection with Elena also.  DH really likes either Ella or Ellie as a first name but I feel like they would need a more formal first name and he doesn't like Eleanor or Ellen.  I am not sure those NN's would actually stick with Elena.

  • elena or claire
  • I love the way Paige Elizabeth flows, very pretty.

    I find Claire to be boring. Clara is cute, Stella is nms. Gwyneth is ok.

    I find any of the El names to be overdone and boring.

     

  • Ella!

  • I really like Clarie.  I wanted to consider that name this time around, but I'm being voted against.

  • I like Stella Elizabeth best!

    I like Ella as a stand alone name as well. Ella Paige is nice!
