Girl Names

muffyvonmuff · January 2015

Anyone feel like tossing out some girl name suggestions. It seems I lean toward gender neutral girl names but DH is no help and keep shooting them down so Im running out. I thought I could name her after my Mom and Sister (same name) who passed away but every time I think of it I cry so I don't think I can do it.

Names I liked:

Riley

Hayden

Sloane

Blake

Any suggestions?

I love Riley. My favorite for a girl is Kennedy, although I'll probably never use it.

Even though using your sister's name makes you cry at the moment, don't rule it out yet. You may find yourself getting more comfortable with the idea. It's a wonderful way to honor your sister and your daughter would bring much happiness to the name.

I like Riley. And agree about your mom and sister's name. Although the name could always be a MN so that it may make you cry less.

I like Riley, too. And Sloane. I'm also tossing around using my mom's name (she died when I was 18) but I get all cry-face when I think about it. #letscrytogether

OK cryfest table of 2 your table is ready. DH wants to use it. Their names were Virginia. I just don't know if I could say it all the time. Im a sensitive sally.

My vote goes to mom and sister's name...especially since your husband wants to use it. You could do that as a first name, but call them by the middle name or vice versa. I also like Sloane. The others are too trendy for me.

Be sure to invest in waterproof mascara.

You could always go with Virginia Sloane or Sloane Virginia. I think they go really well with each other. And then just call her Sloane. That way you're essentially getting to use both names that you & your husband like.

I love the thought of using Virginia in either the first or middle name. It's an amazing sentiment to 2 very dear people in your life. If you're still looking for other options, I love Kennedy and Taylor as neutral names.

I agree with you!!
Virginia Sloane sounds so pretty plus it's a great way to honor your mom and sister!
