Need a Name for Reese Laddie

mandilindzi · December 2015

My husband and I have decided on the name Reese for our daughter. Our last name is Laddie. However, we can't seem to get the middle name down. We initially had the name Clara, then Paige, then Caroline....What name sounds the best?

If you insist on using a masculine name for your daughters first name, please give her an obviously feminine middle name, in case she doesn't care for having a masculine name.

Other than Eliotte, aren't all the other options feminine?

Paige was also a masculine name.

hmm...never knew that. Thanks for the tip. I'll keep it under advisement.

I like Carolina so I voted caroline.

Paige may be masculine but I only think of it for girls.

I like Caroline best. I think it helps balance the masculinity of Reese.

I like how Reese Caroline flows - pretty and strong name!

Definitely Reese Caroline. I like the longer middle name with a short first name.

Definitely Reese Caroline. I like the flow of the longer middle name.

Another vote for "Reese Caroline," but I wanted to mention another thought in case you hadn't already considered it. Am I the only one who hears an old Scottish man crooning "Hello laddie" when I read your last name (hah, probably!)? When I saw your thread title I assumed you were looking for a middle name for your son Reese and calling him your laddie. The combination of a masculine name with a surname that means "boy or young man" seems like a lot for a girl. Just food for thought!
