My husband and I are totally stuck on 4 names. One is my favorite, one is his favorite and the other two we both really like. I'm just curious how others feel!

  • I love Natalie! It's so under used, but so feminine and pretty!
  • I love Natalie and Ryan!
  • I'm soooooooo torn between Ryan and Natalie oh my gosh! Either of those but for the sake of the poll I'll choose one but they both are wonderful evening!
  • I like Nora best. 

    Ryan is a man's name, so that's an automatic out for me. 

    Ellie is cute, but it's very popular. She would likely be one of many in her class. 

    I'm not sure why I can't get over the 80's association with Natalie, it is a pretty name, but it just seems dated to me. 
  • I like all of your girl names. I think if you use Ryan which isn't typically a girls name you should spell it differently. Maybe Ryann, idk I just think every teacher, etc. would assume she's a boy.
  • No you-neek spellings! I hate those. No offense @mamksweez, I just can't get down with weird spellings. I agree though that most people are def going to assume boy if they just read the name though.

  • So Natalie is my grandmothers name. She has passed away and in the Jewish religion you don't name after Someone until they have passed away. And Natalie means christmas or something along those lines and I'm due right around christmas, so I just think it's so special. Husband just likes the other names, and his favorite is ellie. No Eleanor no Elizabeth with ellie for short. Just plain Ellie. He is so stubborn
  • Nora is my fave. It was on my list and got vetoed by the husband, but I adore it all the same.

  • For what it's worth, I would go with Natalie Ryan.  :)
  • Natalie is beautiful and classic, Ryan is also adorable. Probably not as timeless on a woman as Natalie is, but those two are my favorites of your list. Not a fan of Ellie, but I totally hear you on the stubborn husband thing! Mine is completely stuck on Mallory and WON'T budge. It's basically like I have no choice other than Mallory due to his stubborn relentlessness.
  • 20 years ago I named my daughter Tristene, with the hard E ending. To this day I have never seen this name used. And I love the fact that it is still so unique. we called her Trish for short... I just love unique names.
