I love the name [name]Grace[/name] and have always. I think it’d sound lovely with the siblings~.
I’m still holding out for [name]Anna[/name] [name]Caroline[/name]. I find it has a sophisticated, subtle beauty and think it stands up nicely to [name]Serena[/name]. I will say though, your husband saying he wants a [name]Gracie[/name] is adorable. 
I’m very surprised that you haven’t used [name]Grace[/name] yet. Since the local pronunciation of [name]Caroline[/name] bothers you, my vote goes to [name]Grace[/name] [name]Caroline[/name].
Well, [name]Grace[/name] is in one of my older children’s name… It is her second middle name. But she is thrilled with the idea of us using it
They are all lovely but I just adore [name]Caroline[/name] [name]Joy[/name].
I’m sticking with [name]Anna[/name] [name]Caroline[/name] as my favorite for you…I think you have such a blend of girls names (classics like [name]Sarah[/name], more elaborate [name]Serena[/name], double barrels with both classics and more modern picks like [name]Kelsey[/name]…) that [name]Anna[/name] fits right in.
Runner up (my name!) [name]Caroline[/name] [name]Joy[/name]. Yes, you will correct some people, but I don’t think it’s a deal breaker. I only ever had one person (my 5th grade teacher) who continued to say -lyn after one correction.
Grandmother’s aversion to [name]Charlotte[/name]…unless [name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Jane[/name] is leaps and bounds ahead of the others (which it doesn’t seem to be at all) I might take that into account. I’m sure she would get over it when she sees your beautiful baby girl, but personally I think I’d want to save her that.
It sounds like you have your favorite already! You have a name you can’t find any flaws with and it’s your husband’s favorite too… I won’t vote for my favorite, i will vote for your favorite!
you have [name]ELEVEN[/name] kids?
When baby comes, there will be 11
Our oldest daughter, [name]Maggie[/name] is almost 20 and engaged, so she probably wouldn’t want to be considered a kid, LOL!
[name]Charlotte[/name]. I can’t use [name]Charlotte[/name] if I have a girl because I have a little boy called [name]Charlie[/name].
[name]Charlotte[/name] is just gorgeous - I love the soft “[name]Char[/name]” sound and “lotte” together. [name]Charley[/name] and [name]Lottie[/name] gorgeous nn’s.
I have long loved [name]Charlotte[/name], twice almost used it, but the issue with my grandmother has me holding back…but, maybe she would get over it…
[name]Caroline[/name] [name]Joy[/name]. I love [name]Caroline[/name]! Nobody I know has ever not known how to pronounce it though. It doesn’t have lyn and the end, it has line.
Since you already used the name [name]Grace[/name], I think that is a bit strange to use it as a first name for this daughter.
Yes, you have a lot of children, but I don’t think you need to be repeating names. There are so many lovely names out there.
If you have longed to use [name]Charlotte[/name] though, maybe now is the time. Explain to your grandmother that you didn’t use it before because of her, but that you really want this baby to be [name]Charlotte[/name]. Too bad that [name]Charlotte[/name] is so popular now. I can see it entering the top 10 soon. That is why my vote was for [name]Caroline[/name]. There are less Carolines than Charlottes.
Well, the fact that I am considering using [name]Grace[/name] has nothing to do with the number of children I have. Simply, I love the name, and I regret now putting it in an obscure second name spot for one of my daughters, there for it is rarely said or heard. Of course there are a lot of beautiful names out there! This I know all to well :O) However, it boils down to what you really love, at least that has been my way of looking at naming each one of my children… also any family significance has come into consideration. I would feel the same if I only had one child
I have been surprised to see [name]Charlotte[/name] sky rocket up the charts! And I agree with you, I do think it is headed for the top 10. Good thing, is, I have never heard it on a baby or small child around where I live. It is something to think about for me
Well, I clearly can’t really help you with this decision. I am so torn myself between [name]Grace[/name] and [name]Caroline[/name]. Those two (with [name]Theresa[/name]) are my clear front runners if we have another girl. I don’t think it matters if you have used it as a second middle. [name]Anna[/name] is lovely too but I like the strength of [name]Grace[/name] and [name]Caroline[/name]. [name]Charlotte[/name] has never really done anything for me though I can see the appeal. Also since you ruled out [name]Susannah[/name] because of the “s” sound the “sh” in [name]Charlotte[/name] seems to be pretty close.
I voted for [name]Caroline[/name] [name]Joy[/name] - I love this! But my second favorite for you is [name]Grace[/name] [name]Caroline[/name], because your husband loves it so much!
Och, you’re killing me here! I love the strength and feminine richness of [name]Grace[/name] [name]Caroline[/name], and the spunky sweetness of [name]Caroline[/name] [name]Joy[/name], and the sweet classic, sort of subdued feel of [name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Jane[/name]. And I would be seriously tickled pink to see you have one of any of these! I think [name]Grace[/name], [name]Caroline[/name], and [name]Charlotte[/name] are all perfect for you. [name]Anna[/name] [name]Caroline[/name] is very sweet and I want to like it–and it’s not even that I dislike it–I just can’t get excited about it like I love [name]Grace[/name], [name]Caroline[/name], and [name]Charlotte[/name] for you.
I’m sure your grandmother wouldn’t think you’re using [name]Charlotte[/name] to spite her. And she’d get to love [name]Charlotte[/name] because she’ll love your daughter. You obviously love it–and I think if you love it most when this baby’s born, I would definitely use it. Then again, my family has made it clear they don’t like most of my names, anyway (my sister has tried to bargain with me to get me to give up [name]Caleb[/name]–she says I can have her top choice–consequently my second–if I refuse to ever use [name]Caleb[/name]. ha!), but that it’s my choice and that they’ll love my baby, no matter what the name. So I’ve never really put a lot of stock into what family members think, but I’m sure it’s more important to others, and it seems it’s important to you.
[name]Grace[/name] [name]Caroline[/name] is probably my favorite this time around, but I really love [name]Charlotte[/name] and [name]Caroline[/name], so much!
[name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Jane[/name].
[name]Anna[/name] [name]Caroline[/name] - a beautiful combo but [name]Anna[/name] and [name]Emma[/name] are too similar in sound
[name]Grace[/name] [name]Caroline[/name] - I love [name]Grace[/name] as a first name - elegant and classy. I’m surprised you haven’t used it before now too!
[name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Jane[/name] - This is actually MY FAVOURITE combo but [name]Charlotte[/name], [name]Sophie[/name], [name]Sarah[/name] and [name]Serena[/name] are too many “s” sounds for one family. Grandma wouldn’t be happy about naming the baby Charlotte either.
[name]Caroline[/name] [name]Joy[/name] - I love [name]Caroline[/name] but [name]Joy[/name] isn’t working for me. The combo doesn’t grab me.
I just noticed that all four combos are now tied at 13 votes each! I don’t envy your decision.
