We are stuck with our little girls name.
Middle name likely to be either Isabella or Lily (who knows maybe even both?)
Thoughts on the two names we cant decide between, vote then let me know what the two names mean to you or what sort of personalities they each conjure to help us decide.
I love [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] - it’s an immediately friendly, reliable, zippy, and spunky name.
[name_f]Bridget[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f], [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] [name_f]Isabella[/name_f], or [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f]. You could use [name_m]Bridge[/name_m], [name_f]Birdie[/name_f], [name_f]Brie[/name_f] and/or [name_u]Brit[/name_u] as nn’s.
[name_f]Petra[/name_f] is arguably more sophisticated and worldly - definitely some boardroom vibes - but my mind goes to “petrified” when I hear it and I don’t the “pet” bit.
I prefer [name_f]Bridget[/name_f]. When I see [name_f]Petra[/name_f], I think of [name_m]Petro[/name_m] [name_f]Canada[/name_f] - petroleum and gasoline.
Oh, I adore [name_f]Petra[/name_f]! [name_f]Petra[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] is so, so sweet, and [name_f]Petra[/name_f] [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] is so flowy and romantic, too! I think of a little girl, holed up in an ancient library on some very old European estate, hiding under an end table with a book. I also think of the apostle [name_m]Peter[/name_m] (he’s my favorite!) so I love it for that reason too. [name_f]Petra[/name_f] just feels so unexpected and charming; she’s on my own list as a middle but I would be so beyond thrilled to meet a little [name_f]Petra[/name_f]! [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] is nice, but pales in comparison for me; I love [name_f]Brigid[/name_f], though, for some reason? I’m not sure why I’m pro [name_f]Brigid[/name_f] but con [name_f]Bridget[/name_f]
Bridget/Brigid [name_f]Lily[/name_f] or Bridget/Brigid [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] is also lovely, though, or even [name_f]Petra[/name_f] [name_f]Brigid[/name_f] Isabella/Lily? [name_f]Petra[/name_f] and [name_f]Brigid[/name_f] feel equally crumbly magical European darling, like all [name_m]King[/name_m] [name_u]Arthur[/name_u] and crumbling castles and old churches and precocious, friendly, happy little girl. They feel meant for each other?
I feel like I’m rambling lol but I think [name_f]Petra[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] is my favorite!
These are fabulous! I’d choose [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] myself.
I love flower names, and I love that flowers can be symbols of so much goodness.
I don’t think you can go wrong, both names are beautiful! However, my personal favorite is [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] by far. I see a little girl named [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] as strong, independent, and spunky! She is unafraid to speak her mind. I love [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] as a middle name, because it’s also unexpected. [name_f]My[/name_f] favorite combination is [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f]! This is one I would definitely use myself, and I like the flow a longer first name paired with a short middle name.
It is most important that you follow your heart and go with whatever combination you love most. I hope this helps!
I like [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] best.
I just don’t like [name_f]Petra[/name_f] because of the word pet, sorry! But [name_f]Bridget[/name_f] [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] is so pretty
