Baby Names

The final five..

So, I'm due in four days and we have finally narrowed down our list to five we both like but now we're stuck.  Nothing like waiting until the last minute...

I'd love some honest feedback on these names and any other ideas you think fit our style.  I'd like to narrow it down to at least two before we get to the hospital. Oh, and DD#1 is Norah:)   

-Eden

-Juliet

-Nina

-Lauren

-Audrey

  • I think Lauren and Audrey go best with Norah. They make a classic sib set.

    Juliet is also okay.

    I dislike Eden. I don't it's appeal.

  • -Eden-- Cute and goes well with Norah.

    -Juliet-- Love this name because it's classic and classy.

    -Nina-- I don't love this name. I babysat a terror of a toddler with this name, and I don't like the "na" syllable at the end.

    -Lauren-- It's alright. 

    -Audrey-- Again, it's alright.  I don't like the "au--" at the beginning but that could be because I live in Chicago, so her name would always sound very nasally ("Awwwwwdree").

  • I like Audrey best.

  • I'm voting for Audrey :)

    I love Nina too, but it's too matchy with Norah for my taste.

    Not a big fan of Lauren.

    I really dislike Juliet and Eden.

  • I know Audrey is really popular, but I always had a soft spot for that name, and it goes very well with Norah.

    I like the rest as well, apart from Eden. Not really my style.

  • I prefer Nina, Eden and Juliet to Audrey and Lauren. I think they sound boring mad don't pair well with Norah.
  • My votes are for Nina & Audrey

  • I love Nina and Norah, but I am into themed or matchy names. We're thinking about going with all N's, so I am bias.

  • I think with Norah, I like Audrey the best.

    I don't strongly dislike any of the names, but I don't love Nina or Lauren paired with Norah.

    Good luck deciding! :)

  • I like Eden. It's pretty and refreshing, plus not very common. Lauren and Audrey are great names too, just a little more common. I'm a little over Juliet. Nina is just okay to me but it's too close to Norah IMO.




  • My first instinct with Norah is Eden and least favorite is Nina.

    3. Audrey

    4. Eden

    5. Nina (don't like)

  • My order of preference:

    Nina, Lauren, Audrey, Juliet, Eden.

    I love Nina bc it's so uncommon-yet-simple.  I haven't heard it in ages and think it will serve her well at all stages of life.  Plus, it can suit whatever her personality is: elegant and sophisticated, tomboy, go-getter, any of them can be Ninas.  I also think it's a fab sibset with Norah - quick and snappy to say :)

  • -Eden - NMS, don't love it but don't hate it. 

    -Juliet - Like it, cute and classic. 

    -Nina - Dated, not a fan. 

    -Lauren - Favorite, very classic. 

    -Audrey - Like it. Classic.

  • I like Nina and Juliet the best. 
  • I like Juliet the best, and think it sounds the best with Norah. Good luck! :)
  • I LOVE the name Eden, followed by Audrey. Good luck!! Smile
  • Thank you all so much for the feedback!  It's wild to see so many people's opinions that mirror the dialogue I've been having with myself for weeks... Is Norah being too matchy with Nina? Is Eden not being the right "style" with Norah? Is Lauren too boring? Are Audrey and Juliet becoming too trendy? 

    I love hearing people's opinions, so keep them coming!!

  • Juliet's my favorite, but it's my name, so I'm biased.  (It was #687 the year I was born, so it boggles my mind that it's become trendy!)  I personally wouldn't use Nina with an older sister Norah.  They are all nice names, though.
    DD born 10/10/07 * DS born 11/25/11 * #3 due 3/9/2015
  • I like Juliet way more than any of the other names.  Good luck to you!

    After 3 failed transfers IDK where to go from here.  Still no real answers as to why this isn't working.  Getting a second opinion in February and looking into immune testing.

    All Welcome
  • Because your DD is Norah, I would eliminate Nina and Lauren.

    I really like the other three, Juliet was one of our top picks last time.  I love Eden too but DH would never go for it. 

  • Of your list I like Eden, then Audrey

  • I think Lauren is really boring. Since DD1 is Norah, I would nix Nina. I really like the other 3!

    I really like Nina, but I don't like it with Norah. Juliet is my next favorite.

    My thoughts exactly.
  • I think you have a great list, and you can't go wrong with any of those names! 

    Typically I don't like matchy sibsets, but something about Nina and Norah just seems to work for me, and I really like it.

    I think Eden goes fine with Norah too, no style issues here. I do love this name. It just seems so fresh and pretty. 

    Lauren is classic and goes with Norah as well. I like this name and don't think it is boring.

    Audrey is definitely more trendy in that it follows the patterns, but I like it better than those other trendy names. And Juliet is gaining in popularity; I hear it on here all the time, which worries me a bit too!

  • - Eden: I know a lot of people like this name, but to me it seems like one of those that are supposed to be spiritual but end up sounding trashy (like Nevaeh).

    - Juliet - love

    - Nina - love!

    - Lauren - very nice

    - Audrey - like
