I feel like I say this here too often, but I feel obligated to tell you that Kennedy means 'ugly head' or 'deformed/misshapen head'. I am not too big on name meanings, but I couldn't name my child something with such a bad meaning.
A friend of mine just had a little girl and named her Kennedy Kate which I like more and more and I'm not sure why as it is NMS...I'm not huge on Kennedy but it sounds cute I suppose and like PPs said, she will have Kate to fall back on. I also like:
Aside from the "ugly head" meaning, what happens if she grew up and married someone with the last name Kennedy? That is a pretty common Irish last name.
Something to consider when using last names as girl's first names.
Re: Middle name for Kennedy
Something classic that ages well, so she can go by it if she grows up and hates having a name that sounds best for a toddler.

Seriously though, you need something VERY feminine and something she could potentially fall back on if she grows up to hate her name.

Would you consider calling her by Kennedy and middle name? It feminizes it and gives it a unique character.
If so, I like Kennedy Rose (except the matriarch of the Kennedy family is Rose), Kennedy Grace, Kennedy May.
Kennedy Anne
Kennedy Rose
Kennedy Maria
Kennedy Michelle
Kennedy Jocelyn

I love the name Kennedy Rose.
You get a choice in who you marry, just don't marry someone with the same name.
