Baby Names

Need to pick something...

We're having another girl.  DD #1 is Lila Jane.  I like older classic names and Southern names. I would really like to steer from something that is trendy.  I like family names.

DD #2 options are: (Ruth is the middle name.  It is DH's grandmother's name)

Lydia Ruth - Lydia is my G-Gma's middle name

Marta Ruth - G-Gma's name was Martha, but DH laid the smack down on Martha.  Marta is a form of Martha 

Greta Ruth

Emerson Ruth

Vivienne Ruth

I'm also open for anyone who would suggest something.  Thanks!

Re: Need to pick something...

  • I really think Lila and Vivienne or Emerson go well together. Lydia and Lila are too sing songy for me and I don't really like Marta (I do like Martha!). Greta is nice, but I don't like it with Lila.

    I would recommend Kate, Savannah, Charlotte,

  • Lydia is definitely my first choice- I love the name but DH nixed it.  I think its classic and beautiful.  

     Also love Vivienne.  Marta and Greta are NMS.  I think Emerson sounds trendy because of all the Em names right n

  • I really like Emerson. Everleigh/Everly is really pretty too :)
  • I like Emerson, Vivienne & Lydia in that order.  I think Emerson sounds the best with Lila though.

  • I like Emerson too.

    I like Southern type names as well. Our boys are Harlan and Sawyer and our little girl will be Stella Grace (although i know Stella is becoming trendy)

     I also like Savannah and Charlotte but DH aid no to both<span

  • I think Emerson is beyond trendy...

    I like Marta or Vivenne and I think they go with Lila well. I don't like Lydia at all. Other suggestions:

    Scarlett, Belle, Talia, Jane, Juliet, Magnolia, Eliza

  • Lila is an uber-feminine, beautiful, flowing name.  I think her sister deserves something similar.

    Lydia is lovely, but Lila and Lydia is a bit too matchy matchy for me.

    Marta and Greta are also great names, but because they are both 2

  • I vote for Vivienne Ruth and Lydia Ruth.  Marta isn't bad either.  I really dislike Emerson.

  • I like Marta, I have known 2 posh European girls with that name, so it has a sophisticated ring to me. Evelyn is another classic name with Evie as a nice nn.

  • I think Lydia, Greta, and Marta (in that order) go best with Lila. Love Vivienne in general. Not a fan of Emerson.

  • Thanks ladies.  I feel the same about Emerson.  I think it's going to end up being way too trendy for me.  :)
