Natalie Brooke or Julia Brooke? Can't decide!!

sulsa78 · January 2014

My 1st DD's name is Ava Paige and we found out we are having another beautiful little girl:) I love Natalie Brooke or Julia Brooke... But go back and forth every week! Lol. Hubby is fine with either but said Natalie will have a bad nickname "Nat". What do you guys think? They are both beautiful names and Brooke as a first name is not an option, just wanted to throw that out there:)

Thanks ladies and hope you are getting some rest! I know I'm not with my 1yr old DD teething this week!

I like Natalie Brooke…love the name Brooke!

We are naming our daughter Natalie, so I'm biased

Just my personal opinion, but Julia is one of my favorite girl names.

I like Natalie and don't think "Nat" is a bad NN either.

I love Julia!

My good friend is named Natalie and has a NN of Nat, it has never bothered her.

I vote Natalie

I've always liked Natalie, maybe because it was my very first best friend's name! : )

I'm partial to Natalie (mainly because it's my name) I've experienced more people trying to call me Natasha than Nat (not sure why). I have a few bf's that call me Nat or Natty which I don't mind. I can only recall adults trying to call me Nat when I was growing up. I'd just tell them I didn't like it and they would stop. I never had a problem with other kids doing it.

I like Brooke for first name and second choice is Julia.

Natalie Brooke

MamaPiers · January 2014

Love the name Julia and it gets rid of the possibility of Nat being a nickname

jpbling · January 2014

Definately Natalie! Love that name, that was in the running if this one had been a girl

RedInLove · January 2014

Both are excellent names! I'm leaning towards Julia. I like it a bit better with Ava as a sibset.

meli1025 · January 2014

I vote Julia.

sulsa78 · January 2014

Thanks ladies! So 9 of you voted Julia and 8 voted Natalie! lol

I like Natalie Brooke over Julia Brooke. Our little girl is gonna be Brooke Elizabeth.

I like Natalie, that's DD's name so I'm biased. So far no one has tried to call her Nat (not sure what's wrong with that NN anyways.) We call her Natalie. DH said that they called her Natty at daycare.

I think they're both really pretty! Natalie is one of my favorite names. We're waiting to make a final decision until we see our DD, cuz we have a couple of choices, too.
