Future baby names!

General Name Discussion
1

I am a newlywed with baby name fever even though my hubby and I won’t TTC for another year or so. My maiden name is [name]Sage[/name] so I definitely want to incorporate this. Hubby likes it for a girl so will probably be a girl’s name. I also really like [name]Luca[/name] for a boy but the hubby likes it for a girl. What do you guys think of [name]Luca[/name] [name]Sage[/name]? Last name is kind of complex…pronounced like shar-dine.

If I saw [name]Luca[/name] [name]Sage[/name] on paper, I would assume it is a boy.

As far as flow and sounds go, I really like [name]Luca[/name] [name]Sage[/name] together, but to me it just works better on a boy. Any thoughts yet on what you like for a future son?

I would go [name]Lucia[/name] [name]Sage[/name] (Loo-sha) for a girl, and [name]Luca[/name] [name]Sage[/name] for a boy.

[name]Love[/name] this idea.

5

I agree with [name]Lucia[/name]. I love, and prefer, [name]Luca[/name] as a boy’s name. But I do adore [name]Sage[/name], for either gender.

I like [name]Luca[/name] for a boy too, just something the hubby and I disagree on right now. My other fav name for a boy is [name]Leo[/name] [name]Cruz[/name]. I study languages so I definitely want something with exotic flare but not crazy. I also have Irish and Italian heritage so I want to maybe honor that too. I like [name]Leonardo[/name] but that might be too much with my last name.

7

Not sure about [name]Lucia[/name] because my last name starts with sh. Would that be too much? Also my name is [name]Marie[/name] and the hubby likes [name]Sage[/name] [name]Marie[/name] for a girl which is my name backwards but is that too weird? Any thoughts?

8

I really like [name]Cruz[/name]. [name]Leo[/name] [name]Cruz[/name] flows well.
[name]Lucia[/name] [name]Sage[/name] is very pretty, but [name]Luca[/name] is all boy to me. [name]Luna[/name] [name]Sage[/name] is also nice.

Italians always prn. [name]Lucia[/name] loo-chee-uh, so with a sh- last name I don’t think it would be a problem. I agree that [name]Luca[/name] is as boy, but Lucania nn [name]Luca[/name] is not.
