DH and I are getting "close" to narrowing down our LO's name. We have one name in common so in theory it should make it easier but I'd still love to get your thoughts on our names.
My top 5 (in no particular order)
- Victoria, Juliet, Madeline, Claire, and Charlotte
My DH top 5
- Alyssa, Nicole, Brooke, Riley and Juliet
Thanks so much for your thoughts in advance!
Re: My top 5 and DH's top 5
Well you both agree on Juliet which I think is lovely.
I also like Victoria but Juliet is my favorite.

Juliet is a great name!
Overall, I like your name choices better.
Your hubby's are OK, just most of the names he likes (Alyssa, Nicole, and Brooke particularly) sound a little dated. Riley I just don't care for.
Good Luck deciding!

You only seem to have a top 4, you listed Victoria and Juliet twice. Maybe those are your favorites
Juliet's my favorite, too. I like your list better overall. Not a fan of Nicole or Brooke. They feel very 1980s or 1990s to me.

Yes you are right, I double counted Victoria. My other one is Charlotte
I love Juliet!
Juliet Claire or Juliet Brooke would be pretty.
Well you both like Juliet, so that may be your name!
I also like Charlotte and Brooke.
Juliet was our second choice with DD1.
I like Juliet paired with either Victoria or Claire.
Love Juliet, Claire and Riley.
Brooke and Alyssa are NMS and Nicole is just a boring name for me.
Victoria is a really pretty name.
Charlotte is too popular for me.
I'm meh on Madeline.

I love Juliet! I also like Claire and Charolotte too though.
Alyssa, Nicole and Brooke are over used.
Victoria Brooke
Juliet Claire
Since it's in both your lists I'd go with Juliet, very pretty!

I also love Victoria, Charlotte and Brooke.

I like Juliet, Madeline, and Charlotte. I'd suggest looking at new names to use as a MN with the FN Juliet, since that's a name you agree on.

His names are very dated. Sound very 80's/90's. Except for Juliet.
I like all of your names except Madeline. It's WAY too overused.
Since you both agree on Juliet, why not go with that?
I love Juliet! It's very pretty.
I like Victoria a lot, it's also really lovely.
Madeline and Charlotte are nice, just very popular.
Claire is nice, just a bit boring IMO
I don't care for Alyssa, Nicole, Brooke, or Riley.
My favorite combos are:
Juliet Madeline
Madeline Claire
My top 3 are
1. Juliet
2. Brooke
3. Charlotte
This exactly. Luckily, Juliet is my favorite from both lists, and it seems to be your winner!
