Help me choose a name please!

Hello! My husband and I are having a very tough time coming up with a name for our baby girl due in [name]April[/name]. Here are our name choices so far: (the middle name will be [name]Marie[/name], after my mother’s middle name)
[name]Everly[/name]
[name]Leila[/name]
[name]Jade[/name]
[name]Reagan[/name]
[name]Audrey[/name]
[name]Ariella[/name]
[name]Quinn[/name]
[name]Bria[/name]
[name]Zoey[/name]
[name]Lila[/name]
[name]Brinn[/name]
[name]Brinley[/name]
[name]Harlow[/name]
[name]Sadie[/name]
[name]Zia[/name]

Can you please give me your choices to help us decide? My husband really likes [name]Reagan[/name] and [name]Leila[/name]…My favorites are probably [name]Zia[/name] and [name]Bria[/name] but I am unsure of how they will go with the middle name [name]Marie[/name].
Thanks for your help!!:smiley:

These are all very cute. Of the bunch, [name]Zoe[/name] (perhaps spelled without the ‘y’?) is my favourite.

[name]Zia[/name] is cool. Very funky. [name]Sadie[/name] is also lovely.

Other names that might fit your style: [name]Aurelia[/name], [name]Aurora[/name], [name]Giovanna[/name], [name]Ainsley[/name], [name]Aubrey[/name], [name]Darya[/name]

I love these names! They all sound so [name]Spring[/name]-ish.
My top 5 -
[name]Zoey[/name] [name]Marie[/name]
[name]Leila[/name] [name]Marie[/name]
[name]Lila[/name] [name]Marie[/name]
[name]Ariella[/name] [name]Marie[/name]
[name]Reagan[/name] [name]Marie[/name]

I love the name [name]Zoey[/name]. It’s perfect for a spring baby since the meaning is ‘life’. With all the flowers in bloom, [name]Zoey[/name] would fit right in.
I think my style is more like your husbands. [name]Zia[/name], [name]Bria[/name] and [name]Marie[/name] all have strong -i, -ie sounds to them and they just don’t flow right.
What about [name]Brielle[/name]? You could nickname her [name]Bree[/name] or [name]Ellie[/name]!

Best of luck to you and your baby!

First, I love [name]Lila[/name] (or [name]Leila[/name], or [name]Delilah[/name]…). [name]Jade[/name], [name]Audrey[/name], or [name]Ariella[/name] would probably be my picks after that. Based on the names that are your favorites, and I’m sure that you’ve already considered all the alternatives to death but I’ll suggest it anyway, would [name]Eliza[/name] or [name]Zinnia[/name] be potential compromises?

I just saw the other poster’s suggestions – [name]Giovanna[/name] is cool too! [name]Gia[/name] or [name]Genna[/name], which reminds me of [name]Gemma[/name], another neat name.

Most names go really well with [name]Marie[/name], unless they end with an “M” or they have the same syllable emphasis, ie. [name]Elise[/name].

I really like [name]Leila[/name] [name]Marie[/name]. Sounds really pretty! [name]Zia[/name] [name]Marie[/name] would be really unique too.

My personal favorite out of your entire list would probably have to be [name]Ariella[/name] [name]Marie[/name], though.

I like [name]Audrey[/name] [name]Marie[/name].

I’ll rate them all with like and dislike. I’m not going to write reasons I dislike some of the names, that would be rude. But I’ll write the reasons why I like some of the names!
[name]Everly[/name] - dislike
[name]Leila[/name] - like, but spelled [name]Layla[/name].
[name]Jade[/name] - like, completely gorgeous, she’ll be your little precious gem :slight_smile:
[name]Reagan[/name] - dislike
[name]Audrey[/name] - like! I have a friend named [name]Audrey[/name] and she’s so sweet.
[name]Ariella[/name] - dislike
[name]Quinn[/name] - dislike
[name]Bria[/name] - dislike
[name]Zoey[/name] - like, but I prefer it spelled as [name]Zoe[/name].
[name]Lila[/name] - like, it’s short for [name]Delilah[/name] which is one of my favorite names.
[name]Brinn[/name] - dislike
[name]Brinley[/name] - like, I like the full name [name]Brinley[/name], and [name]Brin[/name] as a nickname.
[name]Harlow[/name] - like, it just sounds so pretty.
[name]Zia[/name] - like, it’s very unique. [name]Glad[/name] she won’t be another [name]Emily[/name] or [name]Olivia[/name] if you choose this one! :slight_smile:

I like [name]Jade[/name], [name]Audrey[/name], and [name]Zoe[/name] the best. I think you should go with [name]Jade[/name] or [name]Zoe[/name] because, [name]Jade[/name] only has one spelling unless you spell it as [name]Jaide[/name] or Jayd (but it’ll give her a hard time and she’ll have to spell it out for everyone and always correct people)
[name]Audrey[/name] is really pretty, but people might mishear it and say [name]Aubrey[/name], which is also a pretty name, but not her name.
[name]Zoe[/name] is so pretty, and the original spelling is [name]Zoe[/name]. The more common one is [name]Zoey[/name], but [name]Zoe[/name] is the original. It’s Greek, and very gorgeous. Be aware that kids her age might spell it as Zowie. Everyone I know that has a stuffed animal named “[name]Zoe[/name]” or a character on a game spells it as Zowie. So she might get her name spelled wrong on invitations, but I’m sure all her teachers will spell her name correctly.

Congrats on your baby!

[name]Just[/name] a suggestion that might appeal to you… What about [name]Zoey[/name] [name]Marie[/name] nn [name]Zia[/name]? Good luck! =]

I like [name]Everly[/name] [name]Marie[/name] and [name]Brinn[/name] [name]Marie[/name] the best.

[name]Lila[/name], [name]Bria[/name] and [name]Quinn[/name]
