Help me name my baby!

My SO and I have such a hard time agreeing on a name! The leading candidate right now is [name_f]Cara[/name_f]. I would love some help deciding on a middle name? So far I like…

[name_f]Cara[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Cara[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f]- I like the sound of this, but she will be born in [name_f]October[/name_f].
[name_f]Cara[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]

Other names still on the table…

[name_f]Sienna[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f] (my name is [name_f]Claire[/name_f])
[name_f]Arianne[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Nora[/name_f]?
[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f]?

Thank you so much for your opinions!

[name_f]Cara[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] is pretty. I don’t think it matters that she’ll be born in [name_f]October[/name_f].

[name_f]Cara[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] flows so nicely! [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] works at any time of year, even if it’s cute for a [name_u]Christmas[/name_u] baby as a pun. [name_f]Cara[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is my second choice from your list.

Good [name_m]Luck[/name_m] and I hope the rest of your pregnancy is peaceful and positive for you and your partner.

Another vote for [name_f]Cara[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f]. I agree, [name_f]October[/name_f] doesn’t matter. Besides, the stores will have [name_u]Christmas[/name_u] stuff out already. :slight_smile: I also really like [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f], but [name_f]Nora[/name_f] is super popular where I live right now.

I love [name_f]Arianne[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]. [name_f]Arianne[/name_f] is a beautiful name that’s underused, in my opinion. And it gives the cute nicknames [name_u]Ari[/name_u], [name_f]Aria[/name_f], or [name_f]Anne[/name_f]/[name_f]Annie[/name_f]. [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] paired with it makes it my top choice.

I also like [name_f]Nora[/name_f], though I prefer it as a nickname for [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]. I think [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f], [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] or [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f] and [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] are nice, strong names.

Thank you so much for the feedback! It is so hard to choose a name my husband and I both like. He will not go for anything too frilly or even a little unusual. I was really excited about [name_f]Arianne[/name_f], but a couple of people said it reminded them of the word aryan, and I finally decided I didn’t want to worry about that for the rest of my life. Although, I know a girl named [name_f]Arianne[/name_f], and she seems to have gone through life unscathed :). I guess I am leaning towards [name_f]Cara[/name_f] because it is a sweet, dear name, but maybe a little on the “safe” side. Thanks again for your replies.

I like the name [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] and [name_f]Nora[/name_f] is cute. Here are some suggestions combining the names:
Menorah [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f]
[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] Menorah (personal favourite)
Novalee [name_f]Claire[/name_f]
[name_f]Cara[/name_f] Menorah
[name_f]Sienna[/name_f] [name_f]Maple[/name_f]

Good luck!
