Name help - 39 weeks and no name!

What are your thoughts on these names? We are struggling to make a decision.
Audrey - Is this a boring name?
Avery - I know some feel it's too masculine but I personally only see it as a girls name.
Violet
Reese

Re: Name help - 39 weeks and no name!
I really like Reese! and Avery...both pretty
I think Avery is feminine not masculine GL 
If you are concerned about her sharing a name with lots of other kids, I would avoid Avery. It is very popular. It is in the top 20 for 2012, and I personally know at least 4 people with a daughter named Avery (and I don't know many people with little kids).
I love Audrey. Classic and strong.
Of course we don't
But here are some of our thoughts.
Avery Rose or Avery Noelle
Audrey Rose or Audrey Noelle
Violet ?
Reese Noelle
Love Audrey Reese, or Avery Rose
Funny!!! A few of these were on our list!
Reese would be my big pick or Violet (which I have a secret love for due to Downton Abbey)! But I really really love Reese.
Audrey and Avery are so nice but common right now i find!
Reese and Avery are being used for boys as well so I prefer names that are more classically feminine:

Training to become an IBCLC. BF Questions? Just ask!
I love Reese, but it's our LO's last name (difference spelling though), so it was out for us. I also think that Violet Reese would be pretty.
I'm not a huge fan of Avery -- It reminds me of the doctor from Gray's too much (I know that his name was Jackson Avery and it was a nickname, but still). But, that's just my opinion... A lot of people have questioned our name (Isabella Victoria Sounds-like-Reese) and the formality of it, but we love it, so it's what matters.
Audrey & Violet read all girl to me, while Avery & Reese are more gender neutral. I prefer names that are associated clearly with one gender,
Audrey Reese would be my pick.
I love Audrey!! Or Aubrey ( i know its not on the list)
2nd is Avery
Reese and Violet aren't bad names, just nms.
LOVE AUDREY!! lol but I may also have a slight obssession with audrey hepburn!
I like Audrey, but I'm a fan of Audrey Hepburn
I have an honorary niece names Avery Aryn
so I think it's feminine
Violet is pretty and not so common she'll be 1 of however many in class
Reese is cute, in my classroom, 2 years ago I had a boy Reese and a girl Reese. Sadly that's how the students referred to them when they talked about them (ie. "boy Reese said..." or "girl Reese said..." It was Pre-K so...
This, we don't have a name either. We've got 3 top names that haven't changed since October.
I like Audrey, Blowfish named her daughter that.
Avery is way too popular for me to like it.
Violet I like
Reese I don't have feelings for either way.

My feeling is that all of your choices are popular, but two are trendy and two are classic.
I like the classics: Audrey and Violet. Both lovely!
If you can't decide based on the actual name, how about consider the meaning?
My favorite two are Violet and Reese. I am SO over hearing Audrey and Avery- they're everywhere these days!
Violet means "purple flower" and Reese means "running."
I LOVE Violet!
Violet Mabry
Violet Noelle (my fave)
Violet Claire
Violet Grace
Look up some baby name meanings- that usually helps me decide. Also, if you're religious at all, names that have special Saints or sentiment always are a plus, too. GL deciding.
My favorite of those is Audrey. The only one I don't really like for a girl is Reese.
And, I feel your pain - we still don't have a name either.
My dd is Audrey Grace . I get a lot of compliments on it .
