Welcoming my little girl [name_u]Harmony[/name_u] [name_f]Laurel[/name_f] into our family of now four! She was born 3 days ago after a nearly pain free labour, and joins her 20 month old sister [name_u]Eden[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f]. We are so excited (and a bit scared!) about the days and weeks to come.
We chose [name_u]Harmony[/name_u]'s name after the birth from a long shortlist as my husband felt he couldn’t say anything for sure until he saw the baby. It’s something of an unusual name but my husband is a music graduate, violin teacher, ex-barbershopper (as am I) and church worship leader so we think it fits! Only drawback so far is no obvious nicknames… Any ideas?
Wow, her name is wonderful! It sounds whimsical and lilting to me. I think a nickname derived from her full name is a great option, something like [name_f]Harlow[/name_f] or [name_u]Harley[/name_u]. Or maybe [name_f]Marnie[/name_f]? I can see that coming from [name_u]Harmony[/name_u]. I really love your daughter’s name, best of luck and I hope you are enjoying your new darling!
[name_f]Minnie[/name_f] is an adorable nickname for [name_u]Harmony[/name_u]. There is also [name_m]Harry[/name_m], [name_f]Marnie[/name_f], [name_u]Ari[/name_u], and [name_m]Morry[/name_m]. Congrats!
Congrats to you and your family on the safe arrival of your baby girl, [name_u]Harmony[/name_u] [name_f]Laurel[/name_f]. [name_u]Eden[/name_u] and [name_u]Harmony[/name_u] are a smashing pair of sisters!
Thanks everyone for your well wishes and nicknames! [name_u]Harmony[/name_u] has been a perfect newborn (I say this of course before the first growth spurt) and [name_u]Eden[/name_u] is surprisingly sympathetic and accomodating of the new baby as well. I think [name_f]Minnie[/name_f] sounds cute and I like [name_f]Marnie[/name_f] - husband is a bit ambivalent but I suspect he just prefers the full name well we will see what sticks!
Usually I’m the name geek out of the two of us so I’m really pleased that my husband likes [name_u]Harmony[/name_u]'s name so much he already started talking about naming #3…haha
Congratulations! My very first best friend in life was named [name_u]Harmony[/name_u], so I have a wonderful association for the name. Goes great with big sister [name_u]Eden[/name_u]. Congrats! I like Harmie and [name_f]Marnie[/name_f] as nn’s.
[name_u]Harmony[/name_u] and [name_u]Eden[/name_u] are perfect congratulations. Mon could work as a nickname I know two [name_f]Monique[/name_f]'s who use it as a nickname
