Can I play the name game, too?

I have been writing down names since the beginning of this pregnancy that I thought I liked, but now that I'm looking over them again, I don't know if I like any of them!

Here's my list:

Natalie
Leah
Elise
Elsa
Jolie
Audrey
Audra
Melanie
Emmy/Emme
Renee
Selah/Sela
Halle
Esme
Lilah/Lila

MH hates most of these, if he could name her it would Jessica, which feels so 80's to me.

Her MN will be Catherine. ... sooo.. which one would you ladies choose? Or feel free to add your own.. because at this point, I'll consider anything haha.

    I think Natalie, Audrey or Lila sound nicest with Catherine as a MN.  I don't find Jessica to be too 80s, but combined with Catherine I find it long and doesn't jive well for me.

    I also think Catherine Elise sounds nice, but not so much the

  • Am I remembering correctly that your DD1 is Lilly? If so then I think I'd knock Leah and Lilah off the list because they are way too similar. I really like Elise, Audra, Renee and Selah. They are pretty and not super common. I am fond of Melanie mostly be
  • My favorite is Natalie.  I also like Elise, Renee, and Sela.  I like Lilah and Leah, but I am not a big fan of using the same first letter for siblings' names.
  • My favorites from your list are Natalie, Audra and Emme (I like this spelling).

  • I think Elsa is really sweet. That's definitely my top pick (and might be a good one for me if I ever **lose my mind** and try for another).

  • I love Selah and Lilah. Lilah was going to be our 2nd LO's name if we had a girl, but we were going to spell it Lyla. 

    I also really like Natalie, Renee and Elsa.

  • I love Lilah! And Natalie. 
  • I really like Natalie!

    My H would have given DD an "80's" name if he could have.

  • My friend is named Emilia and her nickname is Emmie.

    You could put these and JEssica in nymbler and see what comes up!

  • Well I'm partial to Audrey, but I don't think I would use it with Lacey there is to much "EY."

    I like Elise but I think Melanie and Lacey would be a great sib set, also you could call her Lanie for short.

  • I like Elise the best.  I tend to prefer shorter names when the MN is longer.  What about Emily or Emelia/Amelia?  It's close to Emmy/Emme but flows better when I say it with the MN.

  • My vote is for Elsa. Hehe! It was our number one pick for years until we had DD and went with a different name because our friend has a little wild brat named Elsie.

    But I usually lean towards the names a lot lower on the SSA list. Gator's na

  • I'd cut:

    Leah/Lilah/Lila because I don't like matching first letters (but you probably know this from the BNB). I think that even with 2 it sets you up for all your kids so little Mercedes doesn't wonder why her 2 sisters names both start with an

  • I like the name Leah but its my name so I might be biased. :

  • Although I like the name Renee, both Renee & Esme instantly remind me of Twilight.

    Personally, it's NMS to have a first name that rhymes with the last name. So, I would stay away from the names that end in an "a" if I had your LN.
