Okay.. So my boyfriend and I were dead set on naming our little princess Abigail. However, we both also LOVE the name Ava. We have a 10 month old son named Eli, and I've always loved how "Abby and Eli" sound together. So, I would just like an outsiders opinion please..
Abigail Kingsley (or Kingslee)
Ava Kingsley (or Kingslee)
Last name is Lamb.. Thanks girls!

You could always go to the hospital with both names. We couldn't decide for sure between our top two choices for a girl when we had DD. As soon as she came out I was sure and DH agreed.
Personally I like Ava, but they're both beautiful. Deside after you meet her and see what she looks like. You'll know then.
They are both beautiful names! However, I agree with Ava being super popular right now. My nephew and his gf just had a daughter that they named Avah. We live in a super small community and she is one of at least two Ava(h)'s that has been born in the last few months.
Abigail is traditional and not too common. It's a beautiful name and, I agree, Eli and Abby sounds super cute together! A also agree with the previous post: why not take both to the hospital and decide when you see her for the first time.
Whichever name you choose will be a great choice! Best of luck to you!
This. I really love the name Ava though as well. Maybe when you see her you will know exactly which one fits her better.
Both are extremely common names - #5 and #7 in the country. Either way she's going to run into others with her name.
It just comes down to what you like. I personally think Abigail is nice because it provides more options for nicknames (Abby is cute as a kid, but the full name is maybe more professional - or she could also go by Gail).
I say listen to your gut - both are nice names and I don't think you can really go wrong!
Like.
Definitely Abigail Kingsley!
Abigail is so classic, sweet, and has an adorable nickname! If you've always loved it, you won't be disappointed in your choice. Also, Abigail is a name she can grow with.
There are so many Ava's right now (lots in my daughters grade 2 class), and there will be tons in your daughters class too (my friend just named her baby Ava). Abigail sounds really cute with Eli too
Good luck with your choice!
