Since we are doing a baby shower event, I would love to ask my readers for help. My husband and I have no clue what to name our baby girl. I probably will never meet most of you so spill some good names, please!! :)
Avoid anything that's in the top 20 from the last 5 years.. being a Jennifer and having 4 others in my class and 1 even had the same middle name to say the least it was annoying. So when I was young I swore my kids would not have common names. My 1st child name is Cambria (geology term from Cambrian) and my second was Samantha (we were stuck on hers buy Cammy and Sammy sounded cute). Vivian and Mackenzie are cute too.
We're having a little girl in October and are bouncing between Charlotte Ellenor and Lucy Jo (shh, it's a secret). But I also love Lily, Alexis, Adelaide, Jocelyn (cause I love the nickname Joci, Mae and Amelia.
I had a hard time finding a name that I liked for my 2nd daughter. I did know that I wanted it to start with the letter K though because my other daughter's name is Katie (actually Katelyn) and I had 2 bow hangers that had a K as the top part...I know, not really a good reason to have another K, but I was dead set on it. We went through Kimber Leigh (my aunt's name is Kimberly and my middle name is Leigh), then it was Ellison (I had seen it on a blog) and we were going to nickname her Ellie, but then I changed my mind. I was working at a daycare while I was pregnant and there was a little girl there that hated going to the potty and always screamed for her momma...lol. I asked one of the workers what the little girl's name was and she said Kinsley. I fell in love. So, my little girl's name is Kinsley. We had a hard time deciding on a middle name and had thrown around Kinsley Grace, but finally settled on Kinsley Nicole (my best friend's name is Nikki). Kinsley is different and everyone thinks it's so cute! Well, at least I do.
p.s. I really like girl names...if you couldn't already tell ;) I hope I have a girl first when I get pregnant. I can only think of like 2 boy names I like!
I like Saydee, Shyann, Lyla, Lily, Megan, Kaytlin, Claire, Taylor, Shaylee, Allison, Destiny, Emma....

ReplyDeleteMy hubby is more picky about names than I am. He loves Elayna and Isabell. Congrats and good luck! We are having a girl in Dec.
