We already have a toddler [name]Sienna[/name] [name]Hollie[/name] and have a boy’s name picked out and sorted but we cant seem to come up with and agree on ‘the right name’ if our baby is a girl…
Names I like:
[name]Keira[/name] (He doesnt like it)
[name]Lydia[/name] (Already taken)
[name]Adelaide[/name] (hes not convinced)
[name]Cassia[/name] (hes not convinced)
Names my hubby likes:
[name]Lily[/name] (already taken by a family member)
[name]Bella[/name] (we thought maybe more mn material)
Names we both like BUT we are just not convinced:
[name]Cassidy[/name]
[name]Madeline[/name]
Any ideas are appreciated!
Note: Our last name is [name]Smith[/name] so we want a name that is slightly different. It cant start with S, R or E. Thanks!
My dd’s name is [name]Madeline[/name], so I love it! [name]How[/name] are you pronouncing it? If you’re pronouncing it with the -line ending, at least where I live in the southern US, it’s really more unusual. Everyone I know has only ever heard it prnd with the -lyn ending, so we kind of throw them for a loop. But at the same time, it’s not weird or unheard of. A lot of ppl are familiar with the [name]Madeline[/name] books. [name]Madeline[/name] [name]Belle[/name] [name]Smith[/name] is cute! You could even do a double mn, like [name]Madeline[/name] [name]Keira[/name] [name]Belle[/name].
I replied once to this but it told me it had to be approved by a moderator?! So here goes again. I love [name]Madeline[/name], and it’s my dd’s name! Where we live in the southern US, the -line prn of [name]Madeline[/name] is really uncommon, so that might be a plus for you. Everyone around here prns it with the lyn ending. We kind of throw ppl for a loop with the line ending, but it’s not strange or completely unheard of. What about [name]Madeline[/name] [name]Kiera[/name] or [name]Madeline[/name] [name]Bella[/name]? [name]Madeline[/name] [name]Kiera[/name] [name]Belle[/name] would be cute if you were doing a double mn. Btw, we call her by the full name, [name]Madeline[/name], but to avoid the [name]Maddie[/name] nn, we occasionally call her [name]Mads[/name] or Madsie.
