Birth registration is due imminently and I’m still stuck! I love Grace as a sleek classic but the commonness bugs me. I’ve loved Laurel for a long time but am concerned about flow with our last name. I think of Blythe as an uncommon alternative to Grace.

None of these drawbacks is disqualifying—just worth considering along with the pros.

Thanks in advance!

I vote for [name_f]Grace[/name_f]! It’s so often used as a middle that it looks fresh in the first spot :slight_smile: [name_u]Laurel[/name_u] is a close second.

I said Grace! I think you should just go with it. Popularity shouldn’t bother you. I have only ever known 1 Grace so even though loads of people like it I don’t think it is overly used

I love the bubbly [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]

From this, it sounds like you love [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] the most. I think. Anyways, if that’s what you love, then use it regardless of what your family thinks.
And as for [name_f]Grace[/name_f], she’s so common as a middle, and I think it would be fresh and fun as a first name!

I agree, no worries if a family member doesn’t like it!

I vote for [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]! It’s my favourite name on the list - so bubbly and sweet. Sounds like it’s the name you love the most, and you and your partner’s opinions are the only ones that matter.

Definitely [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]! Its beautiful, spunky, quirky, and sweet! All that matters is you love it! I’m sure your family member will come around once they associate the name with your little one! good luck!!

Phoebe!!! I didn’t use to like this name but it’s really grown on me. Go with what you love, all that matters is you love it

I love [name_u]Laurel[/name_u] and [name_f]Grace[/name_f]

[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] all day :wink:

Phoebe!! They will adapt. :relieved:

[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] [name_u]Miller[/name_u] is such perfection so that’s my first choice.

[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]! As others have said, pick the one you love most!

I actually think the flow of [name_u]Laurel[/name_u] [name_m]Miller[/name_m] is great! If you really love [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] though, don’t let someone else’s opinion ruin it for you.

Thanks so much all!

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_u]Laurel[/name_u], but not sure it goes with last name, so [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] gets my vote - also on my list. [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] is horrible and I find [name_f]Grace[/name_f] a little dull.
