Critque the names we have...

I know it is incredibly early, but naming the baby was SO hard with Jackson I need a lot of time to think about it.  I would also welcome suggestions that would sound nice with Anthony and Jackson- We want another long-ish name.  Our last name is Italian and ends in -enna.  What do you think of the following:

Boys:

Nicholas

Nathan

Benjamin

Girls:
Charlotte

Julianne

Adeline

Caroline

 

Re: Critque the names we have...

  • For boys I really like Nicholas and Benjamin. 

    And for girls I like Charlotte. 

    Nice names!

  • My DS was almost Nicholas, but we changed our minds IN the hospital.  Benjamin is my favorite boy name ever, but my cousin used it first.  So, those too get my votes.

    One of the options for DD was Julianna, so Julianne and Charlotte (just because I like it) get my votes for girls.

  • I like them all (I know, huge help), but Nicholas and Chatlotte the best with your last name.

  • I like Nicholas (Cole) and Benjamin but they are both very popular if you don't mind that. For a girl I love Giuliana (that is what we are 90% going to name a girl if we have one so I have to vote on Julianne.
  • For a boy I really like Nicholas and Benjamin.  With each pregnancy, DH mentioned Nicholas.  I love Benjamin (and Bennett), but our nephew is Benjamin, so that was out.

    I like all your girl choices.  I've said them all with your last name and they all sound great.  Did you have a girl name picked out with your first two pregnancies?

  • Lari-Charlotte is one of those that I love more and more everyday.

    Heidisean-I am definitely in the "names that I love" camp rather than worrying about popularity.  I love your girl choice-very pretty.  I love names that end in -a, but for some reason it sounds sing-songy with my LN.

    Jodi-the only time we had a girl picked out was with Anthony and it was Madison Lynne.  Couldn't use that now b/c I already have one President! LOL  Madeleine is another on my list that I forgot to mention.

  • If you turned Nathan into Nathaniel, that or Nicholas.

    Adeline

  • those are all great names! I didn't know Nicholas = Cole for a NN though.

    I like Benjamin and Charlotte (with your other DS's) names the most. :)

  • Love your choices.

    Boys: Nicholas or Nathan

    Girl: Caroline


  • image*Amy*:

    Boys:

    Nicholas- nice enough, but somehow most all Nicholas' I know are a handful (my teacher-ish opinion)

    Nathan- Love

    Benjamin- Love

    Girls:
    Charlotte- Like

    Julianne- Like, but prefer Guilana w/your last name

    Adeline- although this name if very old fashioned, it has made a comeback, especially w/ Addie as a nickname. 

    Caroline- Classic, Love

     

  • My favorites are Nicholas and Nathan, as well as Charlotte.
  • I would vote for Nicholas and Caroline.  Dh and I always have this problem too:)

  • I like Benjamin best for the boys.

    For girls I like Charlotte and Adeline.

    I also prefer longer names, and we have a tough time finding something we both really like too.

  • I truly love all of those names with the exception of adeline (just NMS)...If i had to choose I would say Nicholas for a boy and Caroline for a girl.
