[name]Hi[/name] Berries - my youngest was born last [name]March[/name] - she is the first my husband and I have together (we were the [name]Brady[/name] Bunch before that!) and naming her was a nightmare. I love names and literature and meaning, and my husband vetoed EVERYTHING!! I thought we had settled on [name]Mae[/name] [name]Mazarine[/name], but due to some birth complications she was born blue (fine now) and I just couldn’t use [name]Mazarine[/name]! We went with [name]Arden[/name] [name]Mae[/name], which quickly turned into Ardie, which I can’t stand! Now we call her [name]Birdie[/name] [name]Mae[/name] - fits her personality perfectly and she can use [name]Arden[/name] if she prefers (and when she’s old enough to correct people! :slight_smile: )

We just found out we are expecting again and I’m back to the drawing board. Names I love but have already been vetoed:

[name]Cordelia[/name], [name]Phaedra[/name], [name]Scarlett[/name], [name]Magnolia[/name], [name]Luella[/name]

[name]Augustus[/name], [name]Olsen[/name], [name]Thayer[/name], [name]Felix[/name], [name]McLean[/name] (family name)

Please help - I’d love some suggestions to get me started!

Thanks! I love [name]Twyla[/name] and [name]Glory[/name]. [name]Malcolm[/name] is right on track, but doesn’t work with our last name. And [name]Sawyer[/name] is my style but my husband gave it a resounding no way! :slight_smile:

What do you think of [name]Truman[/name] [name]Theodore[/name], [name]Jarrard[/name] [name]Thayer[/name] or [name]Clive[/name] [name]Solomon[/name] for a boy? [name]Verity[/name] [name]Olive[/name], [name]Twyla[/name] [name]Sage[/name] or [name]Glory[/name] [name]Clementine[/name] for a girl?
