Baby Names

name vote for my little girl

DH and I have decided upon 3 names for our little girl, let me know which you like best or if you see any potentially horrible nicknames :)

Gracia Rose Hunt (Gray-sha)...love, love, love, it but i'm afraid it will always be misspelled or mis-prononced.  Maybe it needs an H at the end???

Isabella Grace Hunt... love it but I'm afraid Isabella has become too popular in recent years.

Kensington Grace Hunt...

 let me know what you think!  Thank you.

Re: name vote for my little girl

  • Isabella Grace by far!

    I read Gracia as Garcia adding an H wont make it any better

    Kensington sounds pretentious to me

  • None of them are my style. Gracia I think it terrible. Kensington is probably the one I would lean towards, just don't call her Kenzy.

  • Gracia Rose Hunt - In what world is this pronounced Gray-sha? It's GRAH-syah.

    Isabella Grace Hunt..Very Very popular and Grace is a bit of a filler mn these days, but if that doesn't bother you, both names are nice legitimate names.

    Kensington Grace Hunt - Kensington is all kinds of bad.

  • I also thought Gracia was pronounced GRAH-siya.  Isabella Grace seems boring to me since it's so popular.  I really dislike Kensington.  I guess I vote Isabella by default.

    I actually worked with a Gracia/Gray-sha.  That said, I like Isabella the best.

    Baby Boy Born 3.15.11. 8lb 9oz, 21.75in. 6 month stats: 20lb 11oz (92%tile), 30.12in.(100%tile - who knew it went over 99th? Which means 100% of other 6 month olds are shorter than mine!)
  • Yes, Isabella is really popular but it's also the nicest name on your list by far IMO.  I would pronounce Gracia "Grah-see-ah". The long a sound doesn't make sense to me. So yes, it would constantly be misspelled and mispronounced.

    I really dislike Kensington. I just don't find it cute or pretty at all.

  • Gracia looks too much like Garcia.  And it definitely does not look like it should be pronounced Graysha (which btw, sounds like a sidekick for She-ra)

    Isabella is very popular, but I think it's the best choice out of the 3

    Kensington is quite the mouth full.   

    What about Grace Isabella?  Or Grace Rose?  Or even Grace Kensington?

  • I knew a Gracia in college. She pronounced it the way you like: GRAY-shuh. She was a lovely person and because of her I choose that name.

    Gracia Rose Hunt (Gray-sha)... for real?  Any name that can't possibly be spelled/pronounced correctly and is made-up to boot should be off your list. 

    Isabella Grace Hunt... Another girl with show-off-y parents naming their kid Isabella and calling her "bella"?   blech.  You'd better hope she's pretty and never goes through an awkward stage.

    Kensington Grace Hunt...  if you have old family money and play polo on the weekends, I love this name.  Otherwise, it make me want to gag due to being so pretentious.

  • Isabella Grace, it's beautiful even if it is popular.
  • Isabella Grace by default. I would pronounce Gracia like gracias. 
  • I thought Gracia was Gracie at a glance. Between the three, I think I'd vote Isabella.

  • Gracia Rose Hunt (Gray-sha)...I can pretty much guarantee it will always be misspelled or mis-prononced (with or without an h). At first glance I thought it was Grah-see-uh.

    Isabella Grace Hunt... popular, but out of the 3, this would be my choice.

    Kensington Grace Hunt...Automatically makes me think of the area of London. I don't like place names so....

    Totally agree with PP I saw it as Garcia and it will never be pronounced right.

    Don't like Kensington but Isabella is nice. I actually prefer Isabelle though.

  • I think Gracia, pronounced Gray-sha would be pretty, but maybe play with the spelling.  Isabella is very pretty, I like Rose as a middle name with this one too.  Kensington is NMS, but not bad

  • Gracia-I read it as Garcia. Then, after I read it again, I pronounced it Grahs-ee-ah (like Spanish Gracias). So, I think you'll have nothing but headaches with this name. Why not just Grace?

    Isabella-UGH. I am so sick of this name. I do think Isabel is pretty though, but I just cannot stomach this name anymore.

    Kensington-extremely pretentious.

    I guess my vote goes to....Isabella, only because of the nn Isabel. If you're going to call her Bella though, I guess I can't really give you a vote.

    Yeah, I can understand not naming your child Isabella (Bella) because of popularity, but "show-off-y parents" might be the most ridiculous thing I've ever read on this board.

    Of the three names Isabella is my favorite by far.

    Show-off-y parents?  What a ridiculous statement - makes no sense at all.

     I like Kensington.  I don't see anything pretentious about it at all.

  • Adding an 'h' to Gracia won't help and the 1st thing I thought of was the spanish word 'gracias' (meaning 'thank you'). I like Kensington and think it's unique yet still professional.
