Names

Yep, going to be that person. Sorry for those who hate name posts. MH has left it up to me to decide between our top 2 names and I'm stuck. I know I just need to give it time and one will be right, but I also want her to have a name now! At least I can say that I know for sure that she will be one of two names. Either Tess or Paige. Possibly Margaret as the middle name. I think I'll call her both and see what sounds best to me. But if anyone wants to chime in, I'll add it to the list of votes I have going. So far they are literally neck and neck in terms of what friends and family like the most.

I like Tess, but it sounds like such a nickname to me. Tessa sounds more of a full name to me. For that reason, I vote Paige. Both are nice names.

IMO I like Tess much better. It's something that would work well for a little girl and a grown woman and she's not likely to have 5 other girls in her class with the same name like she would with Paige.

Tessa or "Tess" was our pick if baby was a girl, after my grandmother.

I like both, but I have always loved Paige...I think I had a baby doll that I named Paige when I was a little kid.

I don't think you can go wrong with either one. I will say that TessA Margaret flows better than Tess Margaret to me. But I like them both.

The reason we are going with Tess over Tessa is that our last name starts with a "T" and ends with an "a", too. A little too rhyme-y.

Margaret is not set in stone. I think I like Tess Marie a little better, which is another family name I've considered as middle name. To be completely honest, we haven't even talked middle names yet, so MH could veto Margaret completely!

I personally like Paige better. It has been on my top girl name list for years. Tess isn't terrible though either; my preference is just Paige.

Paige Margaret has such a better ring to it than Tess Margaret.

I agree with this.

That's tough, I like both too! I agree with what others have said, I think Tess sounds like more of a nickname for Tessa.

Tess sounds like a nickname. I really prefer Paige.

Hands down I like the name Paige over Tess. I have a good frend named Paige and I know that she also loves her name.

I like Paige. It's one of our runner up names. Simple and sweet
