Girl Names
1

We have 2 boys, [name_m]Maxon[/name_m] (nn [name_u]Max[/name_u]) [name_u]Michael[/name_u] and [name_u]Arlo[/name_u] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m]. We’re going in for an induction tomorrow and don’t know if we’re having a boy or a girl. We’ve picked [name_u]Rudy[/name_u] [name_m]Jack[/name_m] if we have a boy, but can’t settle for any girl’s names. Please help us!

We had picked [name_f]Madeline[/name_f] [name_f]Louise[/name_f], nn [name_f]Lu[/name_f]-[name_f]Lu[/name_f] (after a favorite aunt), for both of our previous pregnancies. Of course we screwed up and named our puppy [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] this past spring, and she’s often called [name_f]Lu[/name_f] which takes out our beloved girl’s name. I need a girl’s name that will sound professional as a lady, I can’t picture an attorney named [name_f]Destiny[/name_f] or [name_f]Zoey[/name_f]. I like classic names for girl’s that can have cutsie nn while they’re little, like [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] nn [name_u]Penny[/name_u] (close friend’s daughter’s name). We have entertained [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Ann[/name_f] for quite some time, but I’m not a fan of the overused nn [name_f]Ella[/name_f], [name_f]Ellie[/name_f], or even [name_f]Nora[/name_f]. DH’s latest fascination is [name_u]Harper[/name_u], but we both have ruled it out because of it’s huge popularity. We have family names of [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f] (and I adore the nn [name_f]Willa[/name_f] and [name_f]Mina[/name_f] but am not a fan of [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f]…), [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] (love the nn [name_u]Joey[/name_u] but DH does NOT), [name_f]Louise[/name_f], [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] that we can use, and a ton of names we can’t use because they’re our nieces’ names. Those names are; [name_f]Mia[/name_f], [name_f]Lily[/name_f], [name_u]Bailey[/name_u], [name_f]Abigail[/name_f], [name_f]Amy[/name_f], Aarika, [name_f]Amber[/name_f], [name_f]Anna[/name_f] (though my middle name is [name_f]Ann[/name_f] and can be used), [name_f]Addy[/name_f], [name_u]Ashley[/name_u], [name_f]Emma[/name_f], [name_f]Bella[/name_f], [name_f]Lilah[/name_f], [name_f]Macy[/name_f], [name_f]Jennifer[/name_f], and [name_f]Grace[/name_f]…DH has also asked that we don’t use their middle names, but I don’t know all of them.

Ideas?

Have you thought of keeping [name_f]Madeline[/name_f] and using another nickname like [name_f]Maddie[/name_f]? [name_f]Madeline[/name_f] is a beautiful name that will grow with a little girl well. I don’t think the fact that you named your puppy [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] has to eliminate that name but the [name_f]Lu[/name_f] [name_f]Lu[/name_f] nickname would be out.

If you love the name [name_f]Madeline[/name_f] [name_f]Louise[/name_f], with the nickname [name_f]Lulu[/name_f], I say go for it! Most people won’t notice, and if they do it will be a mild blip on the radar and not something anyone would lose sleep over.
