Baby Names

Girls name opinions

We found out last week we're having a baby girl.  I thought picking a girls name would be a lot easier since we seemed to agree more on them than boys names.  But once we found out it was a girl, my H decided he didn't like the ones we had talked about. We have a middle name, now we need a first name.  I don't love the names he's coming up with but would love some opinions.

Leila Rose
Ella Rose
Adeline Rose (Pronounced like Madeline), we'd call her Addie
Avery Rose
Sadie Rose

 Thanks!

  • I love, love, love Sadie but DH doesn't like it:-(

  • I like Leila, Ella and Sadie best. I'm having a hard time getting into Adeline for some reason, but love the nickname Addie. And I know that most people are using Avery for a girl now but I always think of the little boy from the book Charlotte's Web and also that sitcom with Candace Bergen where she named her little boy Avery.

  • I really like Leila, wish I could put it on my list but my dad's lunatic half-sister ruined it.

    The only other one I like is Avery, which we considered last time, but it just felt too trendy and like it was only getting more popular.  Regardless, I still like it and like it paired with Rose.

  • Thanks. Leila is my favorite, and H agreed on it, but now isn't liking it. He likes Adeline. Which I can't really get into either, but I think Addie is cute. This name stuff is hard!
  • I like Avery though that is DD name!
  • I think all of those are very pretty.  How do you pronounce Leila?  I guess that would be my only concern with that name, I'm thinking lie-la or lee-la.

    I think Adeline is my fav.

    Leila is pronounced like Layla.

    You like Adeline? My H loves it and I'm trying to like it, I really am. I've just been set on Leila Rose for well over a year.

  • I like them all, but Leila, Ella, and Adeline the most.

  • I like Ella or Avery
  • I really like Sadie, then Leila.  Ella and Adeline are getting WAY overused and I think of Avery as a boy's name.

  • I like Avery and Adeline. Sadie sounds little-girly to me-I can't picture an adult with that name. Leila is NMS and I really dislike Ella.

  • Avery Rose!  Super cute!

  • Adeline and Addie is my favorite!!!
  • Ella or Sadie are my favs.  I like all the rest but those are the cutest with the mn Rose.
  • What about Lelia, pronounced Lil-ya? The lady I used to work with named her DD this. I had never heard it before when I first started working with her, but now I know about 3 Lelia's. The only problem with it is people will more than likely always mis-pronounce it. HTH!

    It is true that pit bulls grab and hold on. But what they most
    often grab and refuse to let go of is your heart

  • I like all of them except Leila, just not my fav.
  • My niece is Adeline Rose!  Adorable!

  • Adeline Rose and Sadie Rose are nice.

    Good luck!

  • Love Adeline though she might be in a class with a bunch of Madelines...you could always do Adelina (ada-leena) and still call her Addie- love that nn
  • Oh! I like Adeline, but agree that if you are not sold on it you should look up some alternatives with simlar structure.

    My Heart!

  • I love each of your names...they all sound so pretty with Rose as a middle name!  I think my least fav is Sadie but only because it was my dog's name and I think my fav is Leila Rose.  Great choices!  Congrats!
  • They are all NMS.... I guess Sadie.
