Narrowed down name list

Help us pick a girl name. The middle name will most likely be [name_f]Rose[/name_f] or [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] after family members. Big brother is [name_u]Elijah[/name_u]. And our boy name we have picked out is [name_u]Wesley[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u].

[name_f]My[/name_f] husband hates almost every single girl name I suggested, but this is what we were able to come up with.

[name_u]Ainsley[/name_u]- husband’s favorite. I like it, but don’t love it

[name_u]Harper[/name_u]- we both really like. Is it really that popular?? I don’t know a single [name_u]Harper[/name_u], but it is in the top 10 girl names

[name_u]Vivian[/name_u]- my favorite. Husband doesn’t like it

[name_u]Quinn[/name_u]- both think is ok

[name_f]Fiona[/name_f]- I like it. Husband says it reminds him of Shameless

love all your names, especially harper. and i know, i can’t believe how popular that name is, i have a younger cousin named harper but that’s the only one i know personally. if you guys like it so much i’d say go for it! harper rose is stunning imo!

I like [name_u]Ainsley[/name_u] and [name_u]Harper[/name_u] -I’ve never met a [name_u]Harper[/name_u] either. [name_u]Harper[/name_u] feeks like a good choice for you

[name_u]Piper[/name_u], [name_f]Anna[/name_f] and [name_f]Liliana[/name_f] came to mind

[name_u]Harper[/name_u]- I don’t know any yet and it seems to be the one you both can agree on. :heart:

I think [name_u]Harper[/name_u] goes best with [name_u]Elijah[/name_u] (and with Wesley)
Both your husband and yourself really like the name so neither will be upset if the other doesn’t get their favourite names used.
Seems like a no brainer based on the comments you write about the other names on your list.

[name_u]Harper[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is a great name.

I think [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] is my favourite here. I love [name_u]Harper[/name_u] but it is popular. [name_u]Ainsley[/name_u] makes me think anally (sorry!). [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] is cute but I’m not sure if you’ll be able to sway your husband. [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] feels like a happy medium.

[name_u]Ainsley[/name_u] - I’m not a fan of names ending in -ley, -leigh or -lee, so this just isn’t my cup of tea.

[name_u]Harper[/name_u] - I like the sound of it. [name_u]Harper[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] or [name_u]Harper[/name_u] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] would be really pretty!

[name_u]Vivian[/name_u] - my grandmothers name! I never really liked it, but I can see the appeal! [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is very sweet!

[name_u]Quinn[/name_u] - this name never did it for me. I do kinda like the sound of it, but for some reason [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] doesn’t sit right with me. A matter of taste, obviously! I would pick [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f].

[name_f]Fiona[/name_f] - I can’t help but think of Shrek? Haha, I do like the sound of it, though!

What do you think of [name_f]Flora[/name_f], [name_f]Mira[/name_f], [name_f]Lila[/name_f], [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] and [name_u]Eden[/name_u]?

[name_u]Ainsley[/name_u]- I’m not a fan of the name, I just don’t like the sound of it.

[name_u]Harper[/name_u]- I think this name is very cute. Albeit very popular, but very cute. I think [name_u]Harper[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is very pretty and my preference, but [name_u]Harper[/name_u] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] is cute too.

[name_u]Vivian[/name_u]- I absolutely love this name, thought I prefer the spelling of [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f]. Once again I prefer [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] over [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f], but they’re both cute.

[name_u]Quinn[/name_u]- I personally like this name. It’s a bit more uncommon of a name, but I think it’s very pretty. I’m not sure how well [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] or [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] sound, but it’s not horrible.

[name_f]Fiona[/name_f]- Not my favorite name, but it’s not necessarily a bad name. Once again, I prefer [name_f]Fiona[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] over [name_f]Fiona[/name_f] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f], but they’re both pretty.

Over all, I like [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] the best.

[name_u]Ainsley[/name_u] - Cute, but you don’t love it, and it’s very different stylistically from [name_u]Elijah[/name_u].
Suggestions: [name_f]Amara[/name_f], [name_u]Adair[/name_u], [name_f]Amity[/name_f], [name_f]Asherah[/name_f], [name_u]Arden[/name_u], [name_f]Audrey[/name_f], [name_f]Aisling[/name_f] (pronounced ASH-lin), [name_f]Amelie[/name_f], [name_f]Avalon[/name_f], [name_f]Anneliese[/name_f].

[name_u]Harper[/name_u] - It is an extremely popular name for girls right now - my sister-in-law is a preschool teacher and there are no less than five Harpers in her latest class. As with [name_u]Ainsley[/name_u], I find this to be a very different style than [name_u]Elijah[/name_u].
Suggestions: [name_u]Haven[/name_u], [name_f]Hadassah[/name_f], [name_u]Hazel[/name_u], [name_f]Heidi[/name_f], [name_f]Hermione[/name_f], [name_f]Hesper[/name_f] / [name_f]Hespera[/name_f], [name_f]Hera[/name_f], Hael, [name_u]Havilah[/name_u], [name_u]Honor[/name_u] / [name_f]Honora[/name_f], [name_f]Hosanna[/name_f], [name_u]Halcyon[/name_u].

[name_u]Vivian[/name_u] - I really love this option and think it sounds lovely with [name_u]Elijah[/name_u], but if your husband doesn’t like it, it’s probably not The One.
Suggestions: [name_f]Veda[/name_f], [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Victoria[/name_f], [name_f]Verity[/name_f], [name_u]Valentine[/name_u], [name_f]Vashti[/name_f], [name_u]Vesper[/name_u] / [name_f]Vespertine[/name_f], [name_f]Verena[/name_f], [name_u]Vanya[/name_u], [name_u]Vega[/name_u], [name_f]Virelai[/name_f].

[name_u]Quinn[/name_u] - I think this works better as a middle, because if I saw a sibset of [name_u]Elijah[/name_u] and [name_u]Quinn[/name_u], I would think they were both boys.
(There aren’t a lot of Q names, so for suggestions, I also pulled some one-syllable options, including virtue names.)
Suggestions: [name_f]Qadira[/name_f], [name_f]Quilla[/name_f], Qeturah / [name_f]Gwen[/name_f], [name_f]Eve[/name_f], [name_f]Faye[/name_f], [name_u]Dove[/name_u], [name_f]Blythe[/name_f], [name_f]Claire[/name_f], [name_u]Wren[/name_u], [name_u]Shae[/name_u], [name_f]Prue[/name_f] / [name_f]Faith[/name_f], [name_f]Hope[/name_f], [name_f]Joy[/name_f], [name_f]Grace[/name_f], [name_u]True[/name_u].

[name_f]Fiona[/name_f] - Next to [name_u]Vivian[/name_u], this is my favorite on your list. It’s still not quite the same style as [name_u]Elijah[/name_u], but they do sound lovely together with all those strong vowels! I’m familiar with the Shameless character, but that would never be my first association.
Suggestions: [name_f]Fianna[/name_f], [name_u]Fallon[/name_u] / [name_m]Faolan[/name_m], [name_f]Farah[/name_f], [name_f]Fatima[/name_f], [name_f]Felicity[/name_f], [name_f]Fairuza[/name_f], [name_f]Fawn[/name_f], [name_f]Faustine[/name_f], [name_f]Felicia[/name_f], [name_f]Fenna[/name_f], [name_f]Fiammetta[/name_f], [name_f]Finola[/name_f], [name_f]Filomena[/name_f], [name_u]Fiore[/name_u], [name_f]Freya[/name_f].

If you love [name_u]Harper[/name_u], I wouldn’t worry to much about popularity, especially if you’ve never met one. [name_u]Harper[/name_u] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] gets my vote!
