I realize these are all very different names. We cannot decide between the three! Big sister’s name is [name]Ellie[/name]. I think [name]Isla[/name] goes well with [name]Ellie[/name]. I’m kind of into nicknames though and [name]Isla[/name] doesn’t really have a nickname. I love Lo for a nickname for [name]Lauren[/name]. My husband loves [name]Quinn[/name] for a girl and it’s growing on me! Name suggestions with cute nicknames also welcome
I love [name]Isla[/name]! It’s by far my favorite of the three. I like [name]Quinn[/name], but not nearly as much as I do [name]Isla[/name]. [name]Lauren[/name] just seems really outdated to me. I like Q for [name]Quinn[/name], but I can’t really think of a nickname for [name]Isla[/name].
[name]Just[/name] a suggestion! Have you thought about [name]Lorelei[/name]/[name]Lorelai[/name] or [name]Laurel[/name] instead of [name]Lauren[/name]? They’re cousins of [name]Lauren[/name], but much much fresher.
Best of luck!
Wow, they are all very different, but I agree that all three go well with [name]Ellie[/name] in their own way.
You could always call [name]Isla[/name] “[name]Izzie[/name]”/"[name]Izzy[/name]." [name]Ellie[/name] and [name]Izzie[/name] make a pretty adorable duet. I don’t love the name [name]Isla[/name] on its own - it strikes me as a bit dramatic against an easygoing name like [name]Ellie[/name], but a nickname could certainly fix that.
Lo is such a neat nickname! My name is [name]Laura[/name] and I always lamented my lack of a nickname growing up - wish someone had thought of Lo The name [name]Lauren[/name] itself feels a little dated to me. Have you considered [name]Laurel[/name]?
[name]Quinn[/name] isn’t my favorite, but “[name]Ellie[/name] and [name]Quinn[/name]” does have a nice ring to it. There’s something really spunky and sprightly there.
Anyway, I’m not sure you can go wrong with any of those three!
[name]Ellie[/name] and [name]Isla[/name] sound way too similar, despite looking very different. You’re basically just changing the vowel sounds.
[name]Both[/name] [name]Quinn[/name] and [name]Lauren[/name] are nice, though!
I love [name]Isla[/name], though I am biased. I do not think [name]Ellie[/name] and [name]Isla[/name] are too close. The only thing is you might be setting-up a pattern of names with the letter L in the middle of the name.
I also really like [name]Quinn[/name].
I personally feel [name]Lauren[/name] is a bit tired. I knew so many [name]Laurens[/name] in the 80s and 90s, spelled in every which way - including a boy, [name]Loren[/name].
editing to add
I like the suggestion of Laurel.
I am not fond of [name]Isla[/name] and [name]Ellie[/name] together.
My preference is for [name]Quinn[/name] or [name]Lauren[/name] (which I don’t think is dated) as sisters for [name]Ellie[/name].
Personally I think [name]Lauren[/name] is very common and unoriginal unlike [name]Quinn[/name] and [name]Isla[/name], which are very unique sounding. I like the name [name]Quinn[/name], it sounds spunky yet feminine.
I actually feel like [name]Isla[/name] and [name]Ellie[/name] sound way too similar. I do love both names…just seem very close for sisters. But some people like that sort of similarity. I find [name]Lauren[/name] seems dated as someone else said, but I do have a friend who just had a baby [name]Lauren[/name] and it is actually quite sweet! [name]Quinn[/name] is adorable for a girl. I think [name]Quinn[/name] would be my fave for you.
[name]Quinn[/name] is my favorite, with [name]Lauren[/name] as a runner-up. I also like [name]Laura[/name], [name]Laurie[/name], and [name]Lorelai[/name]. [name]Isla[/name] and [name]Ellie[/name] are too similar in sound yet different in style to me.
[name]Isle[/name] and [name]Quinn[/name] are my top choices. I think [name]Isla[/name] is my favorite.
I find [name]Quinn[/name] to be a little trendy. Not my favorite.
I actually like [name]Lauren[/name]. I’d find it refreshing on a little girl, and Lo is adorable.
[name]Isla[/name], while very pretty, is too close to [name]Ellie[/name].
[name]Ellie[/name] and [name]Lauren[/name] is a sweet sibset.
I think [name]Isla[/name] and [name]Ellie[/name] are far too close. Not really a fan of [name]Quinn[/name] for a girl, though it does sound great with [name]Ellie[/name].
I don’t [name]Lauren[/name] is dated at all, and the nickname Lo is very sweet. My vote is [name]Lauren[/name] and [name]Ellie[/name].
[name]Isla[/name] [name]Quinn[/name] would be a super cute name! Or [name]Quinn[/name] [name]Isla[/name]. I’m not a huge fan of [name]Lauren[/name], but I don’t hate it or anything.
[name]Do[/name] you have a middle name picked out?
I’d go with [name]Isla[/name] [name]Quinn[/name]
Thanks for the input! I hadn’t thought about [name]Ellie[/name] and [name]Isla[/name] sounding similar. I don’t think it bothers me. As far as middle names, here’s what I’m thinking:
[name]Isla[/name] [name]Mae[/name] or [name]Isla[/name] [name]Grace[/name]
[name]Quinn[/name] and [name]Lauren[/name]-no idea for middle names!!
I also like [name]Lauren[/name]. [name]Isla[/name] and [name]Ellie[/name] are too close.
[name]Ellie[/name] and [name]Quinn[/name] go together much more than [name]Isla[/name] or [name]Lauren[/name].
I agree exactly.
Use [name]Isla[/name]!
it has such a beautiful sound and is still unique. I know like ten people named [name]Lauren[/name]. It’s overused and somewhat dated. And I’m not a fan of unisex names so [name]Quinn[/name] is out in my opinion.
With [name]Ellie[/name], I like either [name]Lauren[/name] or [name]Quinn[/name]. [name]Lauren[/name] could be [name]Laurie[/name] and [name]Quinn[/name] could be Quinnie.
