He finally said yes to a name! WDYT?

My very picky husband and I are on vacation. At dinner I threw out ‘how about [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f], it’s babies first vacation’ and he said ‘I actually don’t hate it!’ Then kept referring to it as [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] for the rest of dinner. Finally we’re getting somewhere! WDYT of:

[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] nn [name_u]Charlie[/name_u], [name_f]Carly[/name_f] or Lo

[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] is so pretty! [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] is in the top ten most popular names, but if you love it and it doesn’t bother you, use it! (That said, I’ve never met a [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] once in my life so I’d say you’re good, regardless) I actually really like [name_f]Carly[/name_f] or Lo for nicknames.

I love [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]! And [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] is beautiful. It sounds like the name of a lady in a [name_f]Jane[/name_f] [name_u]Austen[/name_u] novel or something. :wink: Personally, I prefer [name_f]Lottie[/name_f] (or [name_f]Lola[/name_f]) to your nns, but there’s nothing wrong with them. That’s just personal preference talking. :slight_smile:

I’ve come across a couple Charlottes, but most are adults (one was about 9). I have [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] on my own list, so I’m not put off by the popularity. It’s a gorgeous name, and it has such versatile nns. (I would say I would love to know a little [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f], but then that would preclude me from being able to use it, haha, so I’ll just say instead that I would love to have a [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] of my own one day!)

Good luck!

[name_m]Ah[/name_m] I didn’t think of [name_f]Lola[/name_f] I love it! I’m still trying to be ok with [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] being so popular / so a more uncommon nickname would be nice. But it doesn’t bother my husband because his name is [name_m]Jake[/name_m] (#1ish the year we were born I think)

[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] is very lovely -I love it. :slight_smile:

Yay! [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] is beautiful, and there’s a lot of cute nicknames! Yeah, it is a bit popular, but I don’t think its nicknames or variants are. Regardless, [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] is a beautiful name!

[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] is delightful! If you are concerned about such a popular name [name_f]Carolina[/name_f] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] would be lovely too!

I think it’s very pretty! My favorite nickname for [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] is [name_f]Lottie[/name_f]

Congratulations on the stamp of approval! As a fellow wife-to-a-picky-namer, I know how crazy it can make you to have all your favorites turned down, and the sense of elation when he finally likes one!

I think [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] is beautiful. I love the softness and the Southern charm. I also like that there are soooo many nickname options in a variety of styles. If you have a sporty daughter who likes unisex names, she can go by [name_u]Charlie[/name_u], while if you have a dainty girl who loves pink and princesses, she could be [name_f]Lola[/name_f]. The possibilities are endless!

I can’t say I’m in love with the middle name of [name_u]Gray[/name_u], but I just think that’s a matter of personal preference. [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] flows very nicely as a combo. I think you’ve found a winner :slight_smile:

I like [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_u]Gray[/name_u]! [name_f]Lottie[/name_f] is the only nickname that I’m really a fan of for it. Personally I wouldn’t even bother with a nickname though. [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] in its full form is lovely.

I love it! I like all of your nicknames too, but I think [name_f]Carly[/name_f] and Lo are more original than [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] (although that is very cute!). I’d say Lo is a good nickname.

I love [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] but dislike [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] for a girl. I wouldn’t shorten it at all.

Though [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] is a bit too popular for my taste, I think its a lovely, classic name with tons of adorable nicknames. [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] is a lovely name.

I love [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]! I’ve never heard lo as a nn. but I think it’s very sweet.
