Baby Names

Opinions on baby girl names...due Jan 30th! We can't decide!

I am due in less than three weeks and we can't decide on a  name for our little girl. Here are the names we have picked out.  Please give us your honest opinions as we are not telling family and friends.  We know everyone will not like our names but we want something different without being too crazy!  Or maybe you have other suggestions that would be similar to our style.  Thanks for the help.  I hope we have a name before we go to the hospital!! 

Names =  Berkley, Sawyer, Myla, Harper

Names with potential middle name options = 

Sawyer Elle

Sawyer Marie

Sawyer Maggie

Berkley Elle

Myla Elle

Harper Elle 

 

Re: Opinions on baby girl names...due Jan 30th! We can't decide!


  • Sawyer Elle. Don't like Sayer for a girl and the combination does not flow

    Sawyer Marie  Don't like Sawyer for a girl but better FN-MN flow

    Sawyer Maggie No, no

    Berkley Elle. Don't like at all

    Myla Elle Favorite choice for first name

    Harper Elle Second choice

    I don't think the MN Elle  sounds good with any of your FN choices

  • I knew a baby boy named Berkeley...it sounds very BOY to me and so does Sawyer. You may want to consider she possibly would be in her class with little boys with that same name.

     Myla or Harper would be my picks of those choices although they are not my style. Other suggestions you may like:::

    Rochelle

    Amina

    Mila

    Elnora (Nora)

    Delia

    Dahlia

    Nola

    Willa

    Nella

    Carys

    Sorrel

    Zinnia

    Piper

    Georgia

    Juliette

    Nina

    Hazel

    Aurora

  • The reason for Elle is because it's part of my mom's name but I agree it doesn't flow very well.

    I like Sawyer, but not with any of those middle names. I do not like Myla Elle or Harper Elle.

  • I like Myla or Harper. Don't care for Sawyer or Berkley on a girl.

    Would you consider using Elle as part of the middle name rather than the full middle name? I think it would improve the flow of the name...

    Myla Isabelle

    Harper Isabelle

    Myla Annabelle

    Harper Michelle

    Myla Adelle

  • love Sawyer

    go for it different is good

  • Thanks these are good ideas.  We are trying to use family names as middle names which is making it more difficult to get a good flow with the names.  I think Harper may be getting too popular which is my problem with that name.  My husband really wants Sawyer and I was actually leaning more towards Berkley...not sure why.  Ugh....I've decided it's not easy to find girls names!  
  • I like Myla & Harper, but not with Elle.  I don't really care for the others.

  • We are still really undecided but hopefully will come up with something soon.  I never imagined having a hard time trying to name my baby.  Any other suggestions are appreciated!  
  • I actually really like Berkley for a girl :) 

    I think Harper is cute too!

    And I like Marie for a MN for either... I think Elle is a beautiful name but not sure it glows as well with those names. 

    Good luck and have fun! :) 

  • I think Myla is by far the best of your fns.  Myla Estelle would be a pretty name that includes the Elle syllable.
  • I like Myla the best for a first name. I think Harper Elle sounds really pretty though.
  • I think Berkley and Sawyer sound very masculine. The only Sawyer I know, is a boy. 

     

    I think Myla is cute, and I like Harper ok. I love Elle as a middle name, but am not sure about the flow with some of your fn choices.

     What about Carrigan? A friend recently named her baby girl that, and it seems (to me) to be a similar style to what you like. Good luck!

  • I also think that Berkley and Sawyer sound too masculine to name your little girl.

    I like Harper and Myla...both with Marie as a middle name (even with the alliteration, I don't mind Myla Marie).

    I like a lot of the names other PP suggested above. My only other suggestion would be Sloane.

  • Myla Elle gets my vote.  However, I like Elle the best of all of your names.

    I really dislike Berkley.  It reminds me of the university and sounds masculine.  Sawyer sounds masculine as well.

    Harper is being used on girls quite a bit but it sounds quite harsh.

  • Thanks for the opinions.  My mom's name is Rochelle, which is why I was trying to use "Elle" as a middle name. It may not work with our first name selections. We actually like the names even though they may seem too masculine to some people.  My husband is set on Sawyer and I'm just not sure.  I think Sawyer Marie is probably the best option if we want to use a family middle name.  Any suggestions on middle names that go with Berkley. 

     We still like our first name choices = Berkley, Sawyer, Harper, Mila and we even like Landri 

    Other family middle name options:

    Rose

    Katherine or Kate

    Kay

    Mary

    Elle

    Ann

     

    Thanks again for the suggestions.  We are so excited to finally meet our little girl! 

     

  • My favorite is Sawyer Marie. It flows better than any other names you have listed, and it's gorgeous!

  • Myla is the only one that I like from your list.

    Harper is overdone and sounds like Harpy. 

    Sawyer, besides being very masculine, sounds like someone with a southern accent saying "I saw yer dog".

    This.

  • I love Sawyer Maggie!  Sawyer Rose is also gorgeous :D
  • I don't like Sawyer for a girl, and Berkley is nms.

    I LOVE Myla & Harper, but would go with Myla!

  • My DS is Berkeley... so I think of it as a boy name... but LOVE the name! :)

    I prefer Harper over Myla

  • Oh I LOVE Myla! I'm bummed I didn't think of it for our DD. I love the suggestion of Myla Adele or Myla Estelle. I think sawyer is cute too but not very feminine.

  • If you go with Berkeley, please spell it correctly.  Using a misspelled place name is just embarrassing.  Even if you have some rationale, people are going to think you just didn't know how to spell Berkeley.

  • Myla Estelle, Myla Rose, Katherine Myla, Katherine Harper
