My final list

[ninanoo]

I have spent SO much time on name sites thinking I would fall in love with new names… and I haven’t… okay two.

So, basically my list is the same as it ever was. Please tell me exactly what you think of these names.

[name]Natalie[/name] (Her dad is [name]Nathan[/name], so I think it’s extra sweet. Plus all the Natalies I’ve ever met have been “all American” which i find appealing.)

[name]Bethany[/name] (When I was 16, I was obsessed with surfing and read an AMAZING story about a christian girl who over came loosing her arm to a shark attack… I had no idea they would do a movie. xD Lol But I love it anyway. I also think ‘[name]Beth[/name]’ is very sweet.)

[name]Kathleen[/name] (I just love it. It seems sophisticated, but has the spunky [name]Kate[/name] a girl can run through fields chasing butterflies with. [name]Princess[/name] and Pauper in one)

[name]Aria[/name]

[name]Cecily[/name]

[name]June[/name] (My birth month. I just think it’s pretty and delicate.)

[name]Mae[/name]

[name]Guinevere[/name] (guilty pleasure. I love [name]Gwen[/name]! I’m not sure DH would ever go for it though.)

And finally…

[name]Winter[/name]! (I fell in love with this one and [name]Guinevere[/name] while here on nameberry. I think [name]Winter[/name] will have to be a double barrel middle name if its ever used though)

[dillonsfan01]

[name]Natalie[/name] - I love [name]Natalie[/name], I also get All-American vibes from this

[name]Bethany[/name] - NMS but I like your connection to the name

[name]Kathleen[/name] - I love it! There are lots of Cath/Kath-names in my family, and I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Kate[/name]!

[name]Aria[/name] - I really like this one! Cute, short, and sweet

[name]Cecily[/name]- [name]LOVE[/name], I just added it to my list as a MN

[name]June[/name] - Its nice but seems unsubstantial to me, better as an MN

[name]Mae[/name] - Same as [name]June[/name]

[name]Guinevere[/name] - I like [name]Gwen[/name] but [name]Guinevere[/name] seems very harsh to me, I think it is the Guine spelling. What about [name]Gwenyth[/name]?

[name]Winter[/name] - I think [name]Winter[/name] is lovely and does not need to be a double barrell name, it can stand on its own [name]IMO[/name].

[system]

[name]Natalie[/name] - I think this is a really good option for you

[name]Bethany[/name] - I really like this one

[name]Kathleen[/name] - other than not liking this one, all the [name]Kathleen[/name]'s I’ve known have either gone by [name]Kathy[/name] or nothing at all

[name]Aria[/name] - It’s nice but I like your others better

[name]Cecily[/name] - cute, and I like Cece as a nickname

[name]June[/name] - I like others better

[name]Mae[/name] - don’t see the appeal

[name]Guinevere[/name] - I don’t think [name]Gwen[/name] is an appropriate nn for [name]Guinevere[/name] as [name]Gwen[/name] is a completely different name, from [name]Gwendolen[/name], but [name]Guinevere[/name] nn Guin (prn. gwinn) is a great name

[name]Winter[/name] - cute, can stand on its own

[beautiful_madness]

Totally voting for [name]Bethany[/name]. I’ve seen the movie Soul Surfer and it’s amazing. I cried all the way through it, it’s so inspirational! I like the name [name]Beth[/name] anyway so I vote for [name]Bethany[/name] for the reason behind it and for the fact I like [name]Beth[/name]

[dancersventure]

[name]June[/name] is my favorite of your names for a girl, with [name]Mae[/name] second.

[Dantea]

[name]Natalie[/name] – The only [name]Natalie[/name] I’ve ever met is 3 and she’s a whiney little girl. Nothing wrong with the name though, and I think it’s sweet the connection between father and daughter.

[name]Bethany[/name] – I really like [name]Bethany[/name]. It’s one of the “dated” names that i would really loved to come back.

[name]Kathleen[/name] – I think I like [name]Kathleen[/name] better than [name]Katherine[/name], and you still get the same nicknames, so I really like this.

[name]Aria[/name] – [name]One[/name] of my favorites! [name]Love[/name] the musical connection and the beautiful sound

[name]Cecily[/name] – I’m so-so about this one. i think it’s pretty but I don’t really like it too much

[name]June[/name] – [name]June[/name] is my birth month too, but I’m beginning to feel that [name]May[/name]/[name]Mae[/name] and [name]June[/name] are becoming filler names. I’ve known a ton of little girls with either of those in the middle.

[name]Mae[/name] – see the above

[name]Guinevere[/name] – [name]LOVE[/name]! This is so elegant and lovely and [name]Gwen[/name] is so sweet. Maybe he would go for [name]Gwendolyn[/name]?

[name]Winter[/name] – I like [name]Winter[/name] for a girl. I know a girl named [name]Winter[/name], she’s a dancer. I think with the other names on you list, this definitely would be a middle. [name]Kathleen[/name] [name]June[/name] [name]Winter[/name]? [name]Natalie[/name] [name]Winter[/name] [name]Aria[/name]? (as you can see, I love putting [name]Winter[/name] with something that makes a cool meaning like [name]June[/name] [name]Winter[/name] or [name]Winter[/name] [name]Aria[/name])

[name]Natalie[/name] - I really like this name. Two things to keep in mind, though. It’s rather popular right now, and if she and her dad may go by the same nickname ([name]Nat[/name]) it may be confusing. I say this having grown up in a house where my mother and brother both went by the same nickname (think [name]Christina[/name] and [name]Christopher[/name] [name]Smith[/name] both going by “[name]Chris[/name] [name]Smith[/name]”. Phone calls were tricky).

[name]Bethany[/name] - I love this name. Classic, pretty, not too common.

[name]Kathleen[/name] - my middle name, so I’m biased, but I like this one too. A bit less common than [name]Katherine[/name]/[name]Katelyn[/name].

[name]Aria[/name] - This name has grown on me, but honestly, it’s too princessy compared to your other options.

[name]Cecily[/name] - I love [name]Cecily[/name]. My only issue with it is that it seems like a great name for a girl and not that great of a name for a woman, if that makes sense.

[name]June[/name] - Pretty, but I think I’d use this as a middle name. It would pair well with a lot of your options - [name]Natalie[/name] [name]June[/name] would be sweet because then it’s sort of after you and your husband. [name]Cecily[/name] [name]June[/name] works as well.

[name]Mae[/name] - I think this works better as a middle name. [name]Bethany[/name] [name]Mae[/name] and [name]Kathleen[/name] [name]Mae[/name] are both pretty. Not enough substance for a first name, [name]IMO[/name].

[name]Guinevere[/name] - This is in my “love it but probably wouldn’t use it on a real child” category. Very pretty name, but I prefer some of your other options.

[name]Winter[/name] - Pretty and wistful. I’d use it as a middle name, I think your instincts are spot on with that. [name]Just[/name] no [name]June[/name] [name]Winter[/name] please [name]Natalie[/name] [name]Winter[/name], [name]Bethany[/name] [name]Winter[/name], [name]Kathleen[/name] [name]Winter[/name]… those all sound lovely to me.

My favorite combo for you is [name]Natalie[/name] [name]June[/name], just because it honors you & your husband, and is very pretty together. I do really like [name]Bethany[/name], [name]Kathleen[/name] and [name]Cecily[/name] as well, and I think [name]Mae[/name], [name]June[/name] and [name]Winter[/name] would all be lovely middle names. Good luck! do keep us updated on what you pick.

Those names are gorgeous! I like them all!
[name]Natalie[/name] is a pretty name. My husband actually said once that it is a pretty girl name, as in all Natalies are pretty.
[name]Bethany[/name] is a name that I have loved forever. If I could have changed my name when I was younger, this is what I would have picked.
[name]Elizabeth[/name] is super popular, but [name]Bethany[/name] never has been. I think that could change.
[name]Kathleen[/name] is refreshing! I love all [name]Kate[/name] names and the world seems to as well. [name]Catherine[/name]/[name]Katherine[/name] are soooo popular, which is why I prefer the spelling [name]Kathryn[/name]. I’m a sucker for y’s in names too. For some reason I prefer nn [name]Kit[/name] with [name]Kathleen[/name].
[name]Aria[/name] is sooo pretty. Quite popular now that it is a character in the Pretty [name]Little[/name] Liar books and tv show.
[name]Cecily[/name] is lovely. I was a big fan of [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Maud[/name] [name]Montgomery[/name] books ([name]Anne[/name] of [name]Green[/name] Gables) and the show Road to Avonlea. I like the vintageness of the name. Since [name]Cecilia[/name] is catching on, I think [name]Cecily[/name] will too.
[name]June[/name] is great! I love [name]Junia[/name]. [name]June[/name] seems more like a refreshing mn choice for me though, but I do love hearing middles being used as firsts.
[name]Mae[/name] is great too! I met a [name]Mae[/name] my own age and she was pretty cool. I think this name will catch on too.
[name]Guinevere[/name] is lovely, but it is a bit frilly. I like nn [name]Neve[/name], since I have never been a fan of [name]Gwen[/name]. I also like [name]Guinevere[/name] pronounced [name]Gwin[/name]-a-veer, not [name]Gwen[/name]-a-veer. [name]Gwyn[/name] seems like the obvious choice for a nn.
[name]Winter[/name] is a lovely name, but it is my least favorite [name]Season[/name]. haha It is a nice mn choice for a [name]Winter[/name] baby though.
You have good taste!

[ninanoo]

You have good taste!
…

Thank you!

I’ll admit, I’m not use to people likeing my names as well as you all seem to. Makes me feel a lot better with my list. More satisfied. Thank you. (:

[name]Natalie[/name] - [name]Love[/name] it!

[name]Bethany[/name] - I like it. Not a favorite but nice.

[name]Kathleen[/name] - I like this as an alternative to [name]Katherine[/name]. I know one that goes by [name]Kathy[/name], but [name]Kate[/name] definitely works too.

[name]Aria[/name] - I love it!! I wish I could use it!

[name]Cecily[/name] - Not really a fan.

[name]June[/name] - It’s ok. I’m not the biggest fan of month names. I think it would be a cute middle name.

[name]Mae[/name] - Not bad, prefer as a middle.

[name]Guinevere[/name] - It’s ok. Pretty but NMS.

[name]Winter[/name] - Sorry, I don’t like it. I’m not a fan of word names. BUT out of all the word names, this one is much nicer than some of the others floating around. Has a soft, pure feel to it (I think of snow and crisp air).

[s_burr10]

I like [name]Mae[/name] the best!
