Names.. How do you decide??

gilliganB2005 · February 2012

I am almost 29 weeks (tomorrow). DH and I have discussed names a little bit. We have 2 in mind to go with the middle name we choose.... Rose (after his grandmother) and Lynn (both our mothers have this middle name).

Here are the first names:

Aubree

or

Brielle (pronounced Bree-el)

Can't decide!!!

(We have also discussed... Maci, Maylee, and Alana but those are our top 2)

Thoughts???

LOVE Aubree! It was actually in my top 10 when I was picking out my daughters name

Honest opinion?

Aubrey is NMS, but Aubrey Lynn sounds nice. (I hate the -ee though. It's way too cutesy and I think it would sound unprofessional on an adult.) I like the significance of Rose too, but it's so overdone as a mn IMHO.

Strongly dislike Brielle, but I like Gabrielle.

Aubree more than Brielle.

Aubrey I like. Aubree not so much. Brielle - eh.

I really like Aubrey. Brielle is fine, too.

Same here.

Love your top two, but also prefer the y spelling instead of the ee. I think Maylee and Mayla are pretty too, and they are very uncommon which is a plus.

Aubrey is more popular, I prefer Brielle. Actually, I just prefer Brielle in general.

princesscto · February 2012

I prefer Brielle too, it's really pretty!

I love Brielle

I like Aubrey - spelled this way.

I don't like Brielle. It's just NMS.

I don't like Maylee, but I think Mila is nice. I also think Alana is nice.

Aubrey Lynn sounds nice together. I have to echo some of the PP that offered the "y" spelling alternative. I think 30 years from now it will just look more adult and less dated. Brielle sounds pretty but does not flow very easily with either middle name.
