Team Green - need help with names

CloudNine2007 · November 2009

For a girl we love the name Noelle (and yes we are due around Christmas). We think we want to use it as a middle name though. DH has suggested Alexa Noelle and Teagan Noelle. Thoughts? Suggestions on other first names to go with Noelle?

For a boy I like Parker (he doesn't really like it) and his suggestion is Carter, which I am ok with.

I am starting to stress a bit because we are still not in agreement on either a boy or girl name and we need both.

Teagan and Alexa are both nice. I like Teagan a little more!

Love Noelle.

I like Carter but not Parker. What about Connor? I'll try to think of more names that sound like Carter or Parker.

Alexa and Teagan are NMS, but I think Noelle is beautiful.

I like Parker over Carter, but they're both alright IMO.

We both LOVE the name Connor but a couple in our neighborhood (close friends) just named their son Connor and he is actually the 2nd Connor in the neighborhood.

Maybe we should use Noelle as a first name. Hmmm.

I kind of like Teagan. Kind of reminds me of Keagan though, a friend of mine's little boy's name.

Carter is cute.

Teagan Noelle is SUPER cute, Alexa is cute too.

I like all your names for both genders really.

KatieintheCity · November 2009

I like both your girl name picks. Teagan is less common, so I would probably go with that.

I prefer Carter to Parker, but honestly I am not crazy about either of them. I'm not really into the "last name as a first name" trend, and I feel like those two are both that.

I wouldn't stress. I have had a number of family/friends go to the hospital without a name picked, and all of their kids ended up with names :-)

I like Noelle best out of the 3 girl names. I'm not normally a fan of linking the time of year with the kid's name (ie. April born in April) but I really do like the name Noelle.

I don't love Teagan.

I like Parker over Carter. I have a feeling that Carter is going to become VERY popular over the next year so if popularity/trendy names is a concern for you, I would avoid Carter. I already personally know 4 Carters born in the past 6 months.

I think Alexa Noelle is a very pretty name. I am so not a fan of Teagan.

Parker and Carter are both cute but getting trendy.

I like Noelle a lot, and would use it as the first name.

Carter is really cute. I like a lot of the pp suggestions from nymbler.

I love Noelle. I think it would make a beautiful first name. Not a fan of any of the first names for the girls or boys.

mgrulke · November 2009

I like Alexa better than Teagen, but I LOVE Noelle. And I like Carter better than Parker.

nestinginjapan · November 2009

I like all of your ideas! Both Alexa and Teagan sound good with Noelle.

I really like Parker too, (but unfortauntely we're avoiding names that end in -er since our last name also ends in -er). Carter is good too. I also like Carson, which is sort of similar and not a president
