NAMEGAME IS A KILLER

I just realized ( had a mini freakout ) DOS BABIES can essentially come any day- Though i really hope they keep baking.  We dont have names yest .. and so not ready. 

Need girl name suggestions .. not super mainstream,like classy vintage names and something off the beaten path.  

 we like the letters  M, S and L ( mainly they are the letter to help us honor loved ones who have passed.)

 

Having tough time with Girls name. Ugg!

Not packed, have not even done the hospital orientation or take any birthing classes - lots to do.

Re: NAMEGAME IS A KILLER

  • Lillian, Samantha, Mallory - there's my three ;-)

    IMO there is no need to stress over naming the babies before he/she arrives.  I say this because K and I could never agree on a girl's name (we were Team Green) so we went into labor saying we would figure it out when we met him/her.  LO was born on Monday and Tuesday morning we picked her name.  It was sooooo nice to have quiet time with her, get to 'know' her and then let her tell us who she is. I don't think there is anything wrong with having the names picked out in advance, my point is just that not picking it out can be pretty cool too :-)

    Good luck!

  • Nice options CT!  Shea is one of our contenders for a girl.  It was my mother's maiden name, she passed away when I was three and her parents (the Shea's) raised me and my sister.  When I met Kerri, after a few dates, we talked about having kids and she said she wanted a little girl named 'Shea'.  I knew we were destined :)

    Two - I couldn't agree more.  I promised K we would name the baby before we left the hospital but... even that is a reach for me.  I can't imagine choosing a name for a baby I hadn't met.  We have a handful of each and hopefully one of them will fit.

  • I agree that girl names are way more difficult.  "Vintage"/old-fashioned names are in fashion right now too, so some of the ones other people mentioned are more popular than I would have thought!  (I know three babies named Stella.  My friend's toddler is Nora and she has 2 others in her preschool class.)

  • Awesome suggestions all !

     we wont name them till we meet them but i feel like i need like a top 5 to have at least in hand ?  Or a top 3 ...- I dont wanna leave the hospital and be worried or have name regret .. yikes.! 

    I am the worrier in our family so ... I often over think analyze and the wheels keep spinning !!!

     

    THANKS AGAIN - Some of those names I LOVE  but with last name and middle names its so tough  and having my own name issues makes it a lil harder.

    Thanks again.

  • This is a 6 day old post, so hopefully I'm not running too far behind but I'd decided on Eva Mae but then found out that I'm having a boy. It might be a little too country, but the middle name was after the most incredible woman I'd ever met so I had to keep it. It is a good middle name overall, I think.
