Baby Names

Lily Caroline?

WDYT of the name Lily Caroline?

I'm not pregnant, but my grandmother recently passed away so I have been thinking of ways I could honor her with future children's names. Caroline is her MN. 

Thanks for any feedback! :)

  • It's really pretty, and I am sure you are already aware of this, but Lily is a super popular name right now.  Lily was the #15 name for baby girls born in 2011.

    I am mentioning it only because I was totally unaware of how popular some names were until DH and I started to TTC.  Obviously popularity is not something that bothers everyone, but I thought it was worth mentioning.

  • I love it!  I like Caroline Lily better, but that's just because I would call her Caroline.  It's one of my favorite names :)

  • I think Lily Caroline is beautiful.  Our top girl name is Audrey Caroline.  I also like PPs suggestion of Caroline Lily.

  • My cousin named his DD Lily Caroline. I think it's a sweet name, popular or not.
  • Thank you for all of the feedback, everyone! :) I really appreciate the heads up on the popularity of Lily. I knew it was common, but I didn't realize exactly how popular it was (I'm not around a lot of kids...no nieces or nephews, no friends' kids, etc). It may not be a deal-breaker, but it is definitely good to go in knowing its popularity!
