We still haven't decided on a name for DD #2. I'm trying to picture how our
name choices for new baby girl would look next to ours on a Christmas card list. Our names are: Amy, Timothy (nn Tim), Catherine (nn Cate). So our names
are shorter and most of the names we're considering for DD#2 are longer and most we're not considering nicknames. Will that
look weird? A short nickname for DD#1 and a long name for DD#2?
#1: Amy, Tim, Cate and Annabelle
#2: Amy, Tim, Cate and Laurel
#3: Amy, Tim, Cate and Jillian (possibly nn Jill)
#4: Amy, Tim, Cate and Adaline (possibly nn Ada)

Re: How names look next to family members
I think it looks fine. In fact, it kind of makes the string of names seem less choppy by giving it a softer ending.
BTW, I have also mentally "written" out our Christmas cards to try out names. Glad I'm not the only one, lol.
Oh good!
I wonder if I overthink too much...
LOVE LOVE LOVE..... Laurel
Don't overthink it-my best friend is Victoria and her sister only goes by Cate.
I like Annabelle and Jillian
haha- I do that too
I like all your name choices, but I have to say... Cate and Laurel do sound/look great together! Love it.
I love the name Laurel (it is my niece's mn). I had friends that were Katie and Jill (sisters). I think any of them would be good.
