Girl Names
1

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] everyone :smiley:

We have a little girl due next month and have shortlisted 2 names. Took us a while to shortlist as me and Hubby have different taste.

  • [name_f]Adalyn[/name_f] [name_u]Rae[/name_u] (open to spelling suggestions- pronounced [name_m]Ad[/name_m]-uh-linn) nickname [name_f]Addie[/name_f]
  • [name_f]Edie[/name_f] [name_m]Franklynn[/name_m] (saw this on someones post and love it)
  • [name_f]Edie[/name_f] Wrae (spelt this way as surname begins with M and dont want initials ERM)

i also love [name_f]Reeva[/name_f] but not sure.

Any votes would be great and very helpful!!

look forward to seeing what you all think xxxxxxxx

[name_f]Edie[/name_f] [name_m]Franklynn[/name_m]! I would prefer the [name_m]Franklyn[/name_m] or [name_m]Franklin[/name_m] spellings.

3

I love [name_f]Edie[/name_f]. I prefer [name_m]Franklynn[/name_m] to Wrae as a middle name.

4

[name_f]Adalyn[/name_f] [name_u]Rae[/name_u] would be my choice. I don’t like [name_m]Franklin[/name_m] at all, and Wrae looks ridiculous in my opinion. [name_f]Edie[/name_f] [name_u]Rae[/name_u] would have gotten my vote, and I don’t think initials are that important, I only ever see first and last initials together, never all three.

5

[name_f]Adalyn[/name_f] [name_u]Rae[/name_u] has my vote. This is how I would spell [name_f]Adalyn[/name_f].

I like [name_f]Edie[/name_f] [name_m]Franklynn[/name_m] too though. I wouldn’t use the spelling Wrae, it looks really daft.

6

My vote would be for [name_f]Edie[/name_f] as a first name. Either middle works.

7

[name_f]Edie[/name_f] is adorable! I wouldn’t worry about initials too much. Unless you’re going to monogram everything in sight. But even then, usually the way a monogram is done, the last initial is in the middle, so it wouldn’t look like ERM. When I initial things I only do first and last initials, so there again you wouldn’t have to use all 3. [name_m]Franklin[/name_m] is all boy to me. So even though I prefer [name_u]Rae[/name_u], I’d still pick Wrae over [name_m]Franklin[/name_m].

8

[name_f]Adalyn[/name_f] [name_u]Rae[/name_u] is really sweet! I like it and I’d stick with that spelling for your pronunciation :slight_smile:
That said, [name_f]Edie[/name_f] [name_u]Rae[/name_u] would have been my fave and I don’t think ERM is any worse than ARM for [name_f]Adalyn[/name_f] [name_u]Rae[/name_u] (unless I’m missing something)

9

I like both [name_f]Adalyn[/name_f] and [name_f]Edie[/name_f] and it probably depends on where you live, but there are so many little Addies and Maddies that I would definitely choose [name_f]Edie[/name_f]. Maybe you would like [name_f]Edie[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]? [name_f]Edie[/name_f] [name_m]Franklynn[/name_m] is nice too and although [name_m]Franklynn[/name_m] reads all boy to me, it is fine in the middle spot

I love [name_f]Edie[/name_f] [name_m]Franklynn[/name_m]!

I really like [name_f]Adalyn[/name_f] [name_u]Rae[/name_u]
