My husband and I found out today that we’ve been officially chosen to adopt a baby girl, who is due in [name]September[/name]. We’re so excited! Except…I have always loved the name [name]Sophia[/name] (although after doing some research, I’ve realized it’s probably a bit too popular right now), but my husband doesn’t like it at all and is set on [name]Zoe[/name].
I wouldn’t mind [name]Zoe[/name] so much if I thought it sounded better with our 3-year-old son’s name, which is [name]Noah[/name]. I’m not sure if that matters, but I just can’t picture calling my daughter [name]Zoe[/name] anyway.
Neither of us wants to give her an unusual name or spelling, but I do think we’d prefer something slightly less popular than [name]Sophia[/name]. Also, we have a hyphenated last name (both names are two syllables) so preferably nothing too long.
My list:
[name]Audrey[/name]
[name]Caroline[/name]
[name]Claire[/name]
[name]Julie[/name]/[name]Julia[/name]
[name]Laura[/name]
[name]Olivia[/name]
His list:
[name]Amalia[/name]
[name]Cassandra[/name]
[name]Jessica[/name] (after his best friend)
[name]Lucy[/name]
[name]Natalie[/name]
[name]Nichole[/name]
[name]Veronica[/name]
[name]Zoe[/name]
We would be eternally grateful if someone could assist us in finding the perfect name for our first daughter, and possible middle name ideas as well! Thank you so much.
