Oceana?!

What do you think of [name_f]Oceana[/name_f]?

I’m only getting negative feedback from friends and family but I don’t know why! I think it’s beautiful!

Pregnant but don’t know the gender yet. Covering my naming bases :wink: Brother’s name is [name_u]August[/name_u].

I also think its beautiful. [name_m]Even[/name_m] more so with brother [name_u]August[/name_u]. Forget the negative feedback, this is your baby!!

I also think it’s quite pretty, and lovely with [name_u]August[/name_u]

[name_f]Oceana[/name_f] and [name_u]August[/name_u] would make a beautiful sibset! [name_f]Oceana[/name_f] is such a gorgeous name

I imagine it’s just a name family may not have ever heard of. Some people dislike the unfamiliar. That said, [name_f]Oceana[/name_f] is beautiful, paints a nice image in the mind, and also works with a brother called [name_u]August[/name_u]. I’d go for it if it’s your front-runner. It’s your baby, not your family or friends’ baby.

[name_f]Lovely[/name_f]! I also love [name_f]Oceane[/name_f].

[name_f]Oceana[/name_f] is so lovely! Especially with [name_u]August[/name_u]! Once they meet your baby I’m sure (if you decide on [name_f]Oceana[/name_f]) they would come around. They probably had negative reactions because it’s unusual or unfamiliar to them but it’s very pretty. [name_f]Oceane[/name_f] is another great option.

Good luck! :slight_smile:
