I’m trying to think of a name for our daughter due in march. I have two boys, [name]Luke[/name] [name]William[/name] and [name]Brody[/name] [name]Alexander[/name]. We live
In southern [name]California[/name] and I like beachy sounding names. Never did I think I woukd consider [name]Kelly[/name] but its growing one me… do you think it sounds beachy or boring? Can you help with a middle name that updates [name]Kelly[/name] a little? [name]Do[/name] you have any other beachy ideas as far as first names? Thanks!!!
To be honest I think that [name]Kelly[/name] is dated. Because I know about the same number of men and women named [name]Kelly[/name] (most of them born in 70s-80s), I find it hard to imagine on a modern baby girl. That’s just my opinion though.
I don’t mid [name]Kelly[/name] at all. It seems fun, and yes it does seem beachy…but i think you could do better!
Other names that remind me of a cali beach girl:
[name]Ivy[/name]
[name]Gillian[/name]
[name]India[/name] “[name]Indie[/name]”
[name]June[/name]
[name]Liberty[/name] “[name]Libby[/name]”
[name]Summer[/name]
[name]Daisy[/name]
[name]Willow[/name]
[name]Violet[/name]
[name]Cassidy[/name]
[name]Kaia[/name]
[name]Delilah[/name]
[name]Zara[/name]
[name]Skye[/name]
[name]Cora[/name]
[name]April[/name]
[name]Abbey[/name]
I really love:
[name]Luke[/name], [name]Brody[/name] and [name]Summer[/name]
[name]Luke[/name], [name]Brody[/name] and [name]Cassidy[/name]
[name]Luke[/name], [name]Brody[/name] and [name]Abbey[/name]
Like, [name]Brody[/name] and [name]Ivy[/name]
[name]Hope[/name] this helps!
I think [name]Kelly[/name] would be a nice name…it isn’t really my style to use for my own children, but I think it is a sweet and fun name! It has that sweet sound that “[name]Ellie[/name]” has, but it is different at the same time.
I will say that I think [name]Kaia[/name]/[name]Kaya[/name] would be a great name with [name]Luke[/name] and [name]Brody[/name] – it is definitely fun and beachy to me, but pretty at the same time!
If you stick with [name]Kelly[/name], I think a trendier middle name would work well to make it sound less dated.
[name]Kelly[/name] [name]Harper[/name]
[name]Kelly[/name] [name]Jade[/name]
[name]Kelly[/name] [name]Abigail[/name]
[name]Kelly[/name] [name]Amelia[/name]
[name]Kelly[/name] [name]Lucia[/name]
[name]Kelly[/name] [name]Eva[/name]
[name]Kelly[/name] [name]Nora[/name]
funny [name]Kaia[/name] was suggested! i have a [name]Kaia[/name] and my dogs name is [name]Brody[/name]! i mean that as a compliment. i only named my dog that cuz i didnt have a son:) my other daughters name is [name]Tess[/name]…
despite [name]Kelly[/name] being dated ive always seen the appeal. i think [name]Kelly[/name] works well with [name]Luke[/name] and [name]Brody[/name]. a trendier mn would spice it up!
I don’t mind [name]Kelly[/name], but I prefer [name]Callie[/name]. Especially as a nn for [name]Calla[/name] or [name]Callida[/name].
Lots of great suggestions! I’m going to read these over with my husband. Thanks! I’ll keep you posted
