@AliKay20 I didn't know about the porn connection to that name... interesting. Emmanuelle is the full FN of actress Emmy Rossum, so that's the immediate connection I made to the name.
@ladystout08 camp kikiwaka is a really cute show! My kids were obsessed with it for a while. And I love Louella! Especially with the nickname Lou.
Although Louella is what my grandma named the gps in her car so whenever I hear it I think of grandma getting lost and yelling “STFU louella!” Lol
It is a cute show! It's a nice break from the power rangers and nonsense my son usually likes to watch. I asked DS if we'd call her Lou and he said no, we'll call her Louella but we'll see. I can see myself calling her Lulu.
I can’t find any middle names I’m 100% sold on and it worries me that maybe I’m not fully committed to her first name.
We decided a couple of months back on Rhys. And I posted in here that I wanted a three syllable middle name and got some really cute ones. But I can’t commit.
Part of the problem is that I love how unique / feminine DD1s middle name is to pair with her gender neutral first name (she’s Quinn Everly) and I think I’m looking for something like that and just haven’t found it. I probably need to take a step back and think of this little girl’s name more independently.

@BitterBetty12 Danielle was the first middle name that popped to mind for me as a good fit there. Are you planning to spell it Rhys or Reese (same sound but the more common spelling for girls)?
@BitterBetty12 Have you tried the tool on Nymbler? You can put in DD1’s name and it will give you pages of similar options.
Also, it helped me to look into traditional names from my family’s culture. If nothing else it might spark some sound combinations you like to help you narrow the search.

Easton Lyle is the name we decided on. Lyle is a family name. There's a little boy in DS1's preschool that is making me reconsider the name even though I have no idea what else it would be. I don't "love" anything else. DS1 is my favorite name of all and we never had a second favorite for a boy! Anybody else having second thoughts on names you thought you were sold on?

We are going with Abigail Ann! I really wanted Annie for a first name, but I have curly hair and my husband has red hair. We already have one red headed child, so I couldn’t take that risk. Settled on Ann for the middle name! We also have a daughter named Allison Marie, and a son Jackson Matthew.
@DLpanda08 aww, I like it. I do like both of those too.
@kmvisioli I still love Easton Lyle. I dunno what to do. I Know that people are going to always have a name you have, which is fine. I wonder if it's like the car effect. You get a new car, and then all of a sudden you see a million of them on the road when you never noticed them before?

H likes the traditional spelling Rhys even though it is typically considered the masculine spelling of the name. So I think we’re going to go with it!

Still want Lyle as a MN. We have a short list of: Staton, Macon, Holden, Peyton & Dawson.
This is hard.

I currently have a student named Macon and he’s already going by his middle name because he hates it.
