I THINK we've chosen a name

My husband is 100% committed to “[name]Caroline[/name] [name]Ashley[/name] [name]Page[/name]” and I’m there 95%! [name]Ashley[/name] is the name of a dear friend who passed away and [name]Page[/name] is a family name. [name]Caroline[/name] is not one I had ever previously thought of but my husband and I both like it and although I think it’s beautiful I guess I’m concerned it might be a little old or dated? It’s a bit scary to commit to a name as much as I like it! Thoughts would be appreciated!

If you don’t like [name]Caroline[/name] 100% then change the first name only. she will be called this all her life and not many people would even know her middle names. Why don’t you call her [name]Ashley[/name] [name]Caroline[/name] [name]Page[/name]? I also like [name]Ashley[/name] spelled [name]Ashleigh[/name].

[name]Caroline[/name] is really cute! The flow of the name you have is great, I really like it. :slight_smile: I don’t think that a name being dated is a big deal; you’ll just get to start a revival, haha.

Have you thought of [name]Coraline[/name]? [name]Just[/name] a quick switch of those two vowels makes a huge difference. But if you’ve seen the movie you might recall her correcting people over and over, saying that she was [name]Coraline[/name], not [name]Caroline[/name].

Either way, I think the name is very nice! I love [name]Page[/name]!

It’s great that you honored your friend and came to agreement with your husband. I like the varied syllable count 3-2-1 and the style of names flows without it being too matchy. [name]Will[/name] the [name]CAP[/name] initials bother you? I know you’ll add a surname. It’s just something that needs to be brought up.

I think [name]Caroline[/name] is beautiful, but you need to be committed 100%. [name]Caroline[/name] [name]Ashley[/name] [name]Page[/name] is lovely.

I agree with taabbiithaa, [name]Coraline[/name] is a lovely name and still fits in with both of the middle names.

[name]Caroline[/name] is enjoying a a revival, I think. It’s also the name of one of the characters on Vampire Diaries which is a popular series here.

I think [name]Caroline[/name] is a lovely, strong classic. If you think it’s too formal you could give her the modern nn [name]Carly[/name].

[name]Caroline[/name] is a classic, I don’t think it sounds dated at all. [name]Carrie[/name] and [name]Carly[/name] are cute nicknames, but [name]Caroline[/name] is great on it’s own. I don’t think you should change it to [name]Coraline[/name]. It’s a fine name but it has a totally different feel.

[name]Caroline[/name] [name]Ashley[/name] [name]Page[/name] is lovely, and the significance makes it even more special :).

Beautiful name!! Not dated! :slight_smile:

[name]Caroline[/name] is a bit dated and boring in my opinion. I love the suggestion of [name]Coraline[/name] though!

Beautiful combo!

I love [name]Caroline[/name]. I think it is on the comeback too. I like the nn [name]Caro[/name].

I think [name]Caroline[/name] [name]Ashley[/name] [name]Page[/name] is wonderful, but there is one problem with two middles - if you have a long surname, then sometimes it can be too much name. If your last name is two or less syllables, I don’t think you’ll have a problem - I guess three syllables would be okay too - but a 4-syllable last name with 2 middles is just a little too much for me. Other than that, I think [name]Caroline[/name] [name]Ashley[/name] [name]Page[/name] is very cute!

beautiful and not at all dated. I love the nickname [name]Carrie[/name] too:)

Thanks everyone for your feedback! I’m going to stick with [name]Caroline[/name] [name]Ashley[/name] [name]Page[/name]. I love [name]Coraline[/name] too though! Our last name is a classic two syllable last name so I think it will flow well.

[name]Caroline[/name] has been getting quite a bit of love here on Nameberry recently, so I can’t help but think that in coming years we’ll see a bit of a resurgence of [name]Caroline[/name], although I don’t think it would make it to number 1 any time soon. I think this would be a great combination and you’ll be ahead of the pack :slight_smile:
