Do what you do best! :) - girls names

Jolaine83 · August 2011

We're still early, but we're tossing around names now that we know the gender.

Here are our thoughts so far:

Linnea Grace

Charlotte Ruth

Josephina Ruth

Eve Josephine

Evelyn Ruth

Our DS's name is Lucas (mn - Arlo) and our last name ends with a 'lee' sound, so we are a little restricted. What are your thoughts/suggestions? We're not too invested in any name yet, except 'Ruth' as a possible nickname since it's a family name. I'd also like to consider 'Norma' as a middle name, but I can't figure out the right name to put it with as an option.

Thanks in advance, ladies!

I like Charlotte and Evelyn.

Adalyn Ruth

I can't use Adalyn, as I have a niece Adalia and I don't want confusing nicknames on that side of the family. But thanks!

I like Charlotte and Josephina!

Eve is my favorite, but I think it's a little awkward with Josephine. Eva Josephine, however, would be awesome.

Linnea Grace- no, reminds me of linea negra

Charlotte Ruth- eh, Charlotte is nice but too vanilla for me

Josephina Ruth- LOVE, you could do Josie Ruth for a nn. I think I prefer Josefina spelling though?

Eve Josephine- flow isn't great

Evelyn Ruth- okay

Other ideas with Ruth as a mn: Amelia, Alice, Elisa, Sabrina, Julia, Ellen, Anna, Penelope, Adela, Melanie, Ophelia, Lauren, Natalie, Daphne

Other ideas with Norma as a mn: Judith, Lindsay, Olive, Bridget, Camille

Charlotte Ruth- Yes

Eve Josephine- Yes

I love Eve! Simple and pretty, and underused.

Linnea and Josephina are also nice.

I like Charlotte and Evelyn, I'm just a little bored of them.

My vote is for Evelyn Ruth!! That was my Grandma's name, and one of those names will be included in my girl name if I ever have a girl!

I like Eve and Josephine, but not necessary together - actually, if you switch the order to Josephine Eve I think it sounds better. I also like Charlotte.

HeyJune · August 2011

Great choices.

My favorites are Josephina, Evelyn, Eve, and Charlotte in that order. I love Charlotte, but it is everywhere here.

I like them all, except for Linnea. It reminds me of linea negra (the dark line on a pregnant belly) and linear.

alohamora · August 2011

I like Eve and Evelyn the best. Linnea is fine, and I'm very tired of Charlotte.

Out of the bunch I like Evelyn Ruth the best

jlhook0 · August 2011

Josephina Ruth!

Thanks ladies! You are great, and I might be back with more names I want opinions on! We've got lots of time still (we don't name officially until birth) but I love working with baby names. It's so exciting to pick a girl one out this time!
