Re: Names?

    We're down to the following names:
    Everly Grace (Ever)- husband doesn't like but it's my number 1
    Eloise Grace (Elle, Ella, or Lo)
    Emerie Grace (Riri)

    What's your favorite? Why?

    @lmudra I like Eloise the best. Mostly because I like those nicknames the best and I'm not fond of full names ending in the y/ie/i sound. All three are nice though.

    @lmudra, I have an Ella Louise and we call her Eloise, so I'm partial to Eloise.

    Well looks like the bump has spoken!!!  I really like it as well, it's classic and feminine and not too trendy (right?)!

    I've been mulling over 3 names in my head for this baby and I'm just super stuck so I though I'd get some feedback to see if anyone had any good points about the names that would help make up my mind.  I'm also still open to other names but I haven't come up with anything I like.  

    DD is Quinn 
    DS is Chase 

    The names I like for this little girl are -
    Sloane
    Piper
    Claire - this was our girl name for Chase since we were team green. I still like it but I'm worried it's too plain or popular lately.  I do love that it's pretty classic.  

    Which do you like and why or any recommendations based on my style?

    @JessyKV Sloane is my favorite of your choices. I think it goes best with your other names too. They all sound like "cool" kid names.

    @JessyKV I agree with @Kylieslip24 in that Sloane matches your sibset best. My favorite would be Claire, but I think it's girlier than Quinn.

    Thanks! My DH just threw Reese on the list which I kind of like as well.  I think Sloane is my favorite but he thinks it doesn't go with Quinn and isn't a Good baby name but is a good adult name.  He's a funny guy.  

    Any middle name ideas for Sloane? We have a long 3 syllable last name so both other kids have short middle names too.

    @jessykv I have a girlfriend whose a month behind me. She's naming her daughter Piper.   She gets so frustrated when people immediately ask if she's naming her daughter after the orange is the new black character.  I like Piper though:-)

    I'm partial to Piper on your list, but here's some MN ideas:

    Sloane Elizabeth
    Sloane Marie
    Sloane Renee 
    Sloane Violet
    Sloane Louise
    Sloane Ruth

    I love Piper it was on our list had we had a girl, it's definently rising in popularity but I think it's so cute and timeless. All great names though!

    Sloane is my favorite of the three but all are solid names. I think it goes best with your sibset, followed closely by Piper.

    I think Reese goes really nicely with your sibset as well and is my favorite of all 4 names mentioned. One syllable middle names I'm partial to are:
    Rae
    Rose
    Grace
    Ruth
    Hope
    Anne
    Belle

    Thanks guys this was very helpful!! I'm feeling better about these names now.  

    I think I like these combos for first and middle
    Sloane Renee
    Piper Claire
    Reece ? I'll have to think on that one. 


    Ive never seen Orange is the new black so I had no idea there was a Piper on there.  Boo.  People have asked me if Quinn was from Glee?? Also no.

    We have a running list. Today the top name is Makenna. Is that pretty unique? Middle name suggestions?
     I love Ella Grace, but I have a very unique name and love not having to worry about other people with my name.

    One of my favorite preschoolers was MaKenna. Not too out there, IMO.

    MaKenna Rose
    MaKenna Kate
    MaKenna Elise
    MaKenna Ann
    MaKenna Katherine
    MaKenna Marie
    MaKenna Ruth
    MaKenna June ;)

    MaKenna flows well, so just about anything can be used as a MN.

    My cousins daughter is McKenna, but I've never heard it anywhere else. I think it's unique without being "weird".

    @Stankonia2014 thank you! I sent them on to my DH.

    @JessyKV my DD is Lucy Claire. Our dog is named Piper and when we got her my DD insisted her middle name also be Claire. So now she's Piper Claire (which we utilize a lot more than expected) and though she is a dog, I do love that for a little girl too haha

    We were 100% set on Veda but now my husbands family has talked him into not using it because apparently VEDA is an acronym for something? I didn't want DH to tell anyone our name because I didn't care to hear opinions. Now that his family has shared their opinions with DH, Veda is out :neutral: Currently were settled on Daisy Frances and were absolutely not sharing with family/friends! Hopefully since I'm 31 weeks and there's not a ton of time left, DH can keep it to himself :neutral:

    @momma2char Daisy Frances is a really nice name! I still would be annoyed, though. I don't know what Veda could stand for that would be problematic...

    @momma2char I think they're full of it. It's not an acronym I could find. The Vedas are a collection of Sanskrit texts, but that's about all I could find on Veda.

    I think so too. That's all I could find online- and showed my husband what I found on google and he says MIL's work uses VEDA as an acronym for something controversial (which even if that is true, I don't care at all since it has no meaning to me!) So annoying but now DH is against using it.

    @momma2char I would be livid if DH shared our name with his family! Both pregnancies we have agreed to share the name only with each of our best friends, and that is mainly just so we can make sure it's not ridiculous sounding. Family is definitely out! 
    Daisy Frances is still very nice, too, though!

    Everyone in DHs family, all our close friends, and even all my students know DS's name. I only shared with my brothers in my family because my mom and sister are so judgmental and made comments on names we liked, but were not using. I have no guilt.

    @kyreno11 Makenna was a contender for us too, due to it sounding like a combination of my husband's name and mine. But, I dont think we're going for it. I'm liking really short names lately.

    Still no clue and hardly any discussion going on in my house.
    My top three right now are Max, Leo and August (Augie or Gus or both). Can't decide on a long form for Max and I think we'd go with just Leo no long form. Any opinions on those three?
