DH was not this difficult with our first!

Girl Names
1

We’re expecting our second little girl in the next two months. She’ll be welcomed home by big sister [name]Emma[/name] [name]Louise[/name]. We thought we’d decided on [name]Miranda[/name]. But DH has suddenly soured on it…so we’re back to the drawing board. Grrr! Girls’ names are so much more difficult. For boys, we’re in consensus on [name]Evan[/name] and [name]Noah[/name]. God willing, someday :slight_smile:

Our last name is [name]Crosby[/name]. Any additions to our list would be wonderful :slight_smile:

Here’s our new revamped list:
[name]Audrey[/name] (Would use in a heartbeat, but [name]AuDrey[/name] [name]CrosBy[/name]? The D/B worry me… DH thinks I’m crazy!)
[name]Celia[/name]
[name]Elise[/name]
[name]Isabel[/name]
[name]Jocelyn[/name]
[name]Lucy[/name]
[name]Mallory[/name] **edited in. Forgot to add first time!
[name]Sophie[/name]
[name]Sophia[/name]
[name]Tessa[/name]

[name]Audrey[/name] (Would use in a heartbeat, but [name]AuDrey[/name] [name]CrosBy[/name]? The D/B worry me… DH thinks I’m crazy!)…you’re not crazy, I love the name. But with your last name it is a bit of a mouthful :-/
[name]Celia[/name]- Very cute
[name]Elise[/name]- one of my favorites but do you mind they are both “E” names?
[name]Isabel[/name]- love the name, but like others on your list more
[name]Jocelyn[/name]- not a fan
[name]Lucy[/name]- love it (okay so I’m bias!) [name]Emma[/name] and [name]Lucy[/name] sound adorable together! What about [name]Lacey[/name]?
[name]Sophie[/name]- like [name]Sophia[/name] better
[name]Sophia[/name]- love it, but I’m sure there are many sisters [name]Emma[/name] and [name]Sophia[/name] out there today.
[name]Tess[/name]- cute but I much rather [name]Tessa[/name] or [name]Odessa[/name]

Some other ideas;
Serphina*
[name]Eliza[/name]*
[name]Lillian[/name] or [name]Lilly[/name]
[name]Molly[/name]
[name]Sara[/name] or [name]Sera[/name] or [name]Sarah[/name]
[name]Leona[/name] or [name]Leora[/name]
[name]Jillian[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name]
[name]Margaret[/name]
[name]Grace[/name]*
[name]Adrianna[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name]*

[name]Audra[/name] [name]Crosby[/name] is easier to say, could this be a possibility?

4

I agree with [name]Rollo[/name]…[name]Audra[/name] would be pretty, or you could go with [name]Audrina[/name].

5

I’ve never warmed to [name]Audra[/name], and I can’t use [name]Audrina[/name] (although it is pretty)- because I always think of that idiot on “The Hills”!

6

[name]How[/name] about [name]Sidney[/name]? :wink:

[name]Just[/name] kidding, I’m just an excited Canadian!

In all seriousness though, I honestly wouldn’t use a name that ended in an -eee sound with the last name [name]Crosby[/name]. Since [name]Isabel[/name] is very common in all variations, as is [name]Sophia[/name], and [name]Tess[/name] is too short, that leaves [name]Celia[/name], which I think is lovely, and [name]Elise[/name], but I don’t like that the sisters would share an initial, and [name]Jocelyn[/name], which I personally just don’t like. So [name]Celia[/name] is my pick. [name]Celia[/name] [name]Crosby[/name] is darling :slight_smile:

7

Haha [name]Liz[/name], DH keeps trying to get me to agree to [name]Sidney[/name]! He is a huge hockey fan :slight_smile:

Also, I forgot to add “[name]Mallory[/name]” to the list I put in the first post. We’re considering that as well. Pregnancy brain! Gah!

Here’s our new revamped list:
[name]Audrey[/name] (Would use in a heartbeat, but [name]AuDrey[/name] [name]CrosBy[/name]? The D/B worry me… DH thinks I’m crazy!) - Yes, I don’t like the sound of [name]Audrey[/name] [name]Crosby[/name]. It’s kind of hard to pronounce.
[name]Celia[/name] - [name]Celia[/name] [name]Crosby[/name]. This works. What about [name]Cecilia[/name] [name]Crosby[/name] nn [name]Celia[/name]? I think [name]Cecilia[/name] is pretty with your last name.
[name]Elise[/name] - [name]Elise[/name] [name]Crosby[/name] - this works, and I really love [name]Elise[/name].
[name]Isabel[/name] - so popular.
[name]Jocelyn[/name] - [name]Jocelyn[/name] [name]Crosby[/name] - this works, but I love [name]Cecilia[/name] and [name]Elise[/name] more.
[name]Lucy[/name] - I don’t usually like it when both the first and last names end in the same sound.
[name]Mallory[/name] **edited in. Forgot to add first time! - see [name]Lucy[/name] comment.
[name]Sophie[/name] - ditto
[name]Sophia[/name] - so popular, but [name]Sophia[/name] [name]Crosby[/name] is very pretty!
[name]Tessa[/name] - [name]Tessa[/name] [name]Crosby[/name] sounds good, but I still love [name]Elise[/name] and [name]Cecilia[/name] the most.

[name]Hi[/name]! I love the combo of [name]Emma[/name] [name]Louise[/name]! :slight_smile:

Here’s our new revamped list:
[name]Audrey[/name] (Would use in a heartbeat, but [name]AuDrey[/name] [name]CrosBy[/name]? The D/B worry me… DH thinks I’m crazy!): I love [name]Audrey[/name], but I like some of the others more with your last name because both names end in an eee sound.

[name]Celia[/name]: I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Celia[/name], but I just realized that with [name]Celia[/name] C., I see the word “celiac,” as in Celiac Disease. You may also like [name]Cecilia[/name]?

[name]Elise[/name]: I think it’s pretty, but I like some of the others more with [name]Emma[/name] and your last name.

[name]Isabel[/name]: I think it’s a pretty name…

[name]Jocelyn[/name]: Because Jaw and Craw rhyme, I like some of the other names more with [name]Crosby[/name].

[name]Lucy[/name]: I love it, but see [name]Audrey[/name].

[name]Mallory[/name]: I think a name that doesn’t end in an ee sound would sound great with [name]Crosby[/name].

[name]Sophie[/name]: See [name]Mallory[/name].

[name]Sophia[/name]: I like this better with [name]Crosby[/name] than [name]Sophie[/name].

[name]Tessa[/name]: I think it’s a pretty name…

More you may like:

[name]Emma[/name] [name]Louise[/name] and:

[name]Madeline[/name] [name]Crosby[/name]
[name]Stella[/name] [name]Crosby[/name]

Because you like [name]Miranda[/name] (I love it!), you can combine its “[name]Anne[/name]” sound with one of your favorites, [name]Elise[/name], to reach [name]Annelise[/name].

Good luck! :slight_smile:
