Hello Everyone! We just found out that we are expecting [name_u]Baby[/name_u] #4!! We are completely overjoyed, because we were recently diagnosed with secondary unexplained infertility and have been trying for two years!! [name_m]Even[/name_m] though we’re still early in the pregnancy, I’m so excited to pick out a name for our little miracle! Our childrens’ names are [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Daniel[/name_m], [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_u]Monroe[/name_u], and [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. If this one is a girl, we would love to name her [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]! But we need help deciding on a middle name. Here are some we like:
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_u]Bliss[/name_u]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_u]Dove[/name_u]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Opal[/name_f] (my grandmother’s middle)
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Hope[/name_f]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_u]Allyn[/name_u] (my middle and a family name)
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_u]Noel[/name_u]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_u]Jude[/name_u]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] (husband’s great-grandmother’s name)
Our last name is two syllables and pronounced co-ee (Coughey)
So my husband says he is really loving [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_u]Dove[/name_u], and it’s definitely at the top of my list. What do you all think? Too many V sounds?
Yeah, I also think of [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] the actress. My favourites from your list are [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] and [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_u]Dove[/name_u].
I like [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] ([name_f]Grace[/name_f] is my own middle name), [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], and [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Hope[/name_f]. [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Margo[/name_f]/[name_f]Margot[/name_f] popped into my head when I saw this thread.
I do love [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]…because I love the idea of calling her [name_f]Evie[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]! Although I do not plan on using a nickname exclusively, I do like the idea of calling her [name_f]Evie[/name_f] or [name_f]Eve[/name_f]…[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] is a big name after all! I really wanted a nickname for our daughter [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], and we could never settle on one (although [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] was a front runner). I love [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], but it’s a mouthful to say all the time! When we were naming [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], we hoped to have another girl some day to name [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]…and maybe have an [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] and an [name_f]Evie[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]? I actually like double names! Does [name_f]Evie[/name_f] [name_u]Dove[/name_u] sound good?
I love [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]! The last time I almost added her to my list I was contemplating [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Liv[/name_f], [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Lila[/name_f], and [name_f]Adele[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]. I think [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] looks sweet, but I can’t think of it without thinking of [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Lilly[/name_f].
I love [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Hope[/name_f] and [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] from your combos, and like [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f], too.
I like [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] because the flower middle connects her to her sister, [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]!
I immediately thought of [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f] when I read your questions but from your list I like [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Hope[/name_f] and [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f]. The other names are not my style.
Since you like [name_f]Lily[/name_f] why not [name_f]Iris[/name_f]? [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f]?
Thank you all so much for all of your opinions and suggestions! So my husband and I were talking last night, and we might be leaning a little towards [name_u]Dove[/name_u]…it feels fresh and unique to me without being too out there…and we love the [name_m]Christian[/name_m] connotations that the name [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_u]Dove[/name_u] has. Thoughts? Does the flow sound okay? We’re still considering [name_f]Grace[/name_f], [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], [name_f]Opal[/name_f], etc…but [name_u]Dove[/name_u] may be a keeper!
