She's here, help! Paige Emily or Emily Quinn

We had our baby girl this morning and are down to two. Siblings are [name]Reese[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] and [name]Asher[/name] frost. Choices are [name]Emily[/name] [name]Quinn[/name] or [name]Paige[/name] [name]Emily[/name] but we’re open to other middle names. Thoughts?

[name]Emily[/name] [name]Quinn[/name] is awesome!

Couldn’t agree more.

I really like both. I think [name]Paige[/name] [name]Emily[/name] probably goes better with [name]Reese[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name], but with both [name]Reese[/name] and [name]Asher[/name], I think [name]Emily[/name] might be the better match. Plus, it has the adorable nns of [name]Emmy[/name]/[name]Emma[/name] and [name]Millie[/name]. I think that’d get my vote, but [name]Paige[/name] [name]Emily[/name] is very sweet, as well!

Congratulations!

Of your two options, [name]Emily[/name] [name]Quinn[/name] flows the best and looks more polished. However, with sister [name]Reese[/name], [name]Quinn[/name] would work even better as a first name (and I remember you loving this). Would you be open to switching it to [name]Quinn[/name] [name]Emilia[/name]? I think [name]Quinn[/name] [name]Emilia[/name] is a perfect match to her sister, and carries that strong-but-feminine vibe you’re after.

I think [name]Paige[/name] is a little bit dated-- most Paiges were born in the 80s.

[name]Emily[/name] [name]Quinn[/name]!

ottilie · November 12, 2012, 3:23pm

Hmmm, [name]Emily[/name] [name]Quinn[/name]. You could do what [name]Blade[/name] said though, [name]Quinn[/name] [name]Emilia[/name] would be really great with [name]Reese[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] and [name]Asher[/name] [name]Frost[/name] (dig this name by the way!).

montanaberry · November 12, 2012, 3:32pm

I love [name]Quinn[/name] (it would be my first choice) but husband has said absolutely not to it as a first name and I don’t think it flows as well with paige.

lavendyr · November 12, 2012, 3:36pm

Definitely [name]Emily[/name] [name]Quinn[/name]…and congrats!!!

With your other children’s names I love [name]Emily[/name] [name]Quinn[/name]. Others I think of are :
[name]Emily[/name] [name]Raine[/name]
[name]Emily[/name] [name]Agnes[/name]
[name]Emily[/name] [name]Shea[/name]
[name]Emily[/name] [name]Rose[/name]
[name]Emily[/name] [name]Blair[/name]

Most definitely [name]Emily[/name] [name]Quinn[/name]

misshoppy · November 12, 2012, 3:49pm

I like [name]Emily[/name] [name]Quinn[/name].

kungfualex · November 12, 2012, 4:01pm

Of [name]Paige[/name], [name]Emily[/name] and [name]Quinn[/name], I like the name [name]Quinn[/name] the best, but assuming you’re calling her by her first name, I think [name]Paige[/name] goes better with sister [name]Reese[/name]. [name]Emily[/name] is undeniably girly, while [name]Reese[/name], [name]Paige[/name] (and [name]Quinn[/name], for that matter) sound more gender-neutral.

gabriela · November 12, 2012, 4:56pm

With siblings [name]Reese[/name] and [name]Asher[/name], I think [name]Paige[/name] goes better. I disagree that it’s dated. [name]Paige[/name] is just outside the top 100 for baby girls born in 2011 and was in the top 100 in 2010.

montanaberry · November 12, 2012, 6:37pm

[name]Emily[/name] [name]Quinn[/name] it is; we just decided. Thank you all for your help!

blade · November 12, 2012, 6:47pm

Congratulations! It’s a lovely name and you & your husband both got your first-choice names. Great compromise. Enjoy her!

amelieamour · November 12, 2012, 9:30pm

I love [name]Emily[/name] [name]Quinn[/name]!

ashthedreamer · November 12, 2012, 9:45pm

Congratulations! [name]Emily[/name] [name]Quinn[/name] is lovely, and [name]Reese[/name], [name]Asher[/name], and [name]Emily[/name] are very sweet together.

All the best!

I vote for [name]Emily[/name]. I have never understood the appeal of [name]Paige[/name].
