4 wks till she's here! Need suggestions

[name]Baby[/name] girl will be here in a month, and I want to exhaust all name options.

She has two brothers already:

[name]Dylan[/name] and [name]Hudson[/name]

The name we have picked is [name]Ella[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name] ([name]Long[/name] is surname).

[name]Dylan[/name], [name]Hudson[/name] and [name]Ella[/name]

But is it too much ‘L’ with [name]Ella[/name] [name]Long[/name]? I love the name, but am not married to it yet.

I’m open to as many first name suggestions as you berries will give me.

Bring it on! Thank you.

I like [name]Ella[/name], and I think it goes nicely with your sons, however as with most names I would prefer a longer version with [name]Ella[/name] as the nickname. [name]Eleanor[/name], [name]Elizabeth[/name], [name]Eloise[/name], Ellabet, [name]Ellery[/name], [name]Eleanora[/name] etc Some completely different suggestions for you: [name]Melody[/name], [name]Karson[/name], [name]Ember[/name], [name]Antonia[/name], [name]Alexandra[/name], [name]Arianna[/name], [name]Bella[/name], [name]Caroline[/name], [name]Dana[/name], [name]Georgina[/name], [name]Grace[/name], [name]Rose[/name], [name]Skye[/name], [name]Brooke[/name], [name]Ramona[/name], [name]Rebekah[/name] / [name]Rebecca[/name], [name]Eve[/name], [name]Scout[/name], [name]Henrietta[/name], [name]Natasha[/name], [name]Indiana[/name], [name]Kiara[/name] / [name]Ciara[/name], [name]Lillian[/name], [name]Lucia[/name], [name]Luna[/name] :slight_smile: hope these have helped.

I agree [name]Ella[/name] Long is a little bit too heavy on the l’s. How about [name]Elodie[/name], [name]Eloise[/name], [name]Elena[/name] or [name]Emma[/name]?

I think [name]Elle[/name] [name]Long[/name] is fine. In thinking about alternatives, I notice something’s about your sons names and your choice. Your sons names are very masculine and [name]Ella[/name] is very feminine. All would be two syllables as well.

[name]Anna[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name]
[name]Eva[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name]
[name]Iris[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name]
[name]Nora[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name]
[name]Ivy[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name]
[name]Zoe[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name]

Maybe you could used a full name and use [name]Ella[/name] as a nickname. These are some names I would recommend.

[name]Elyssa[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name]
[name]Helena[/name]
[name]Eleanor[/name]
[name]Elodie[/name]
[name]Estelle[/name]
[name]Stella[/name]
[name]Ellamae[/name]
[name]Elsbeth[/name]/[name]Elspeth[/name]
[name]Eliza[/name]
[name]Elizabeth[/name]

[name]Hope[/name] this helps.

I’m not a fan of [name]Ella[/name], and with [name]Long[/name], it’s a bit of a mouthful.
I love the name [name]Eleanor[/name] - [name]Eleanor[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name] maybe? Then she can have the nicknames [name]Ella[/name], [name]Elli[/name], [name]Nora[/name] etc.
My favourite girl names are: [name]Eleanor[/name], [name]Adeline[/name], [name]Quinn[/name], [name]Violet[/name], [name]Ellis[/name], [name]Ivy[/name], [name]Eve[/name], [name]Milla[/name], [name]Josie[/name] and [name]Savannah[/name], but I could go on forever.
A few other suggestions…
[name]Dylan[/name], [name]Hudson[/name] and [name]Eloise[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name] - You can still call her [name]Ella[/name] - [name]Eloise[/name] [name]Long[/name].
[name]Dylan[/name], [name]Hudson[/name] and [name]Savannah[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name] - [name]Savannah[/name] [name]Long[/name].
[name]Dylan[/name], [name]Hudson[/name] and [name]Matilda[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name] - [name]Matilda[/name] [name]Long[/name].
[name]Dylan[/name], [name]Hudson[/name] and [name]Ellis[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name] - Again, [name]Ella[/name] as a nickname - [name]Ellis[/name] [name]Long[/name].

I really do love [name]Eleanor[/name] though. I love the nickname [name]Nora[/name].

Best of luck!

It’s very pretty, but is a bit too much “L” in my opinion. Would you be open to using [name]Kathryn[/name] as the FN? [name]Dylan[/name], [name]Hudson[/name], and [name]Kathryn[/name] flow really nicely. I’m not sure what options that would leave for the middle name, but maybe [name]Emilia[/name], [name]Ellis[/name], [name]Eloise[/name], [name]Elisabeth[/name], or [name]Elena[/name]?

[name]Just[/name] thought of another alternative… [name]Elsa[/name] [name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Long[/name].

[name]Love[/name] PP’s suggestion of [name]Elsa[/name], also [name]Elise[/name].
But [name]Ella[/name] is fine. I like it with [name]Dylan[/name] and [name]Hudson[/name].

[name]Gabriella[/name] [name]Long[/name] nn [name]Ella[/name] would be very cute.

[name]Ella[/name] is perfect with the boys names. I agree find a longer version so her name is not so l heavy-then call her ella! Otherwise love brooke with your subset.

Mmm no take that back two word names a bit tacky!!! [name]Brooke[/name] long…

If you think [name]Ella[/name] [name]Long[/name] is too many "L"s I’d be inclined to avoid any other [name]El[/name] names, for the same reason.

[name]How[/name] about [name]Etta[/name]? Similar sound, but a bit funkier and ahead of the curve, plus you lose the [name]El[/name] issue. Would also be cool with your sons’ names :slight_smile:
