Super confused about all the names

[name]Hi[/name] guys!

I posted a thread some days ago with a long list of names but now I don’t know if I like those anymore. This is so much harder than I thought, I think I’m not a name expert!

I’m having my first child, due in [name]March[/name]! I’m thinking a lot about names, and what name would I like to name my baby, but I’m having a hard time!

I made a shorter list about the names I’m in love with! But I have no clue about middle names, so I need help choosing mn for these names! All help is welcome! [name]Don[/name]'t be afraid about being honest and let me know what you think about these names!

[name]Riley[/name]
[name]Zoey[/name]
[name]Zarah[/name] / [name]Zara[/name]
[name]Kylie[/name]
[name]Chloe[/name]
[name]Leah[/name]
[name]Kaylee[/name]
[name]Ashtyn[/name] (not sure about this one, but daddy loves it)

[name]Carson[/name]
[name]Noah[/name]
[name]Brantley[/name]
[name]Mason[/name]
[name]Chase[/name]
[name]Parker[/name] (Dad’s pick)
[name]Bryson[/name] (Dad’s favorite)
[name]Maxwell[/name]

[name]Baby[/name] surname is [name]Weston[/name]

Thank you so much,
[name]Leah[/name] :slight_smile:

[name]Riley[/name] - I love this name.
[name]Zoey[/name] - dog name :smiley: (I watch too much CTFXC on Youtube)
[name]Zarah[/name] / [name]Zara[/name] - [name]Zara[/name] sounds very elegant to me. I like it.
[name]Kylie[/name] - not a fan
[name]Chloe[/name] - cute
[name]Leah[/name] - love this name but I wish it wasn’t so overused.
[name]Kaylee[/name] - cute
[name]Ashtyn[/name] (not sure about this one, but daddy loves it) - I do not like it at all. Sorry Dad!

[name]Carson[/name] - love it!
[name]Noah[/name] - too overused
[name]Brantley[/name] - sounds made-up to me
[name]Mason[/name] - cute
[name]Chase[/name] - like it a lot
[name]Parker[/name] (Dad’s pick) - also like it
[name]Bryson[/name] (Dad’s favorite) - I prefer [name]Bryce[/name]
[name]Maxwell[/name] - totally reminds me of an old man.

I would suggest [name]Riley[/name] [name]Rose[/name], [name]Kaylee[/name] [name]Marie[/name], [name]Leah[/name] [name]Josephine[/name], [name]Carson[/name] [name]James[/name], [name]Chase[/name] [name]Matthew[/name], [name]Parker[/name] [name]Reid[/name] and [name]Bryce[/name] [name]Parker[/name] out of your names.

Other than that you might like these names:

[name]Jade[/name]
[name]Amaya[/name]
[name]Violet[/name]
[name]Norah[/name]
[name]Emilia[/name]
[name]Joelle[/name]

[name]Declan[/name]
[name]Rylan[/name]
[name]Talan[/name]
[name]Julius[/name]
[name]Brady[/name]
[name]Owen[/name]

I like [name]Leah[/name], [name]Kylie[/name], and [name]Zara[/name] best with your last name - [name]Ashtyn[/name] (aside from the feminizing y…) is awfully rhyme-y.

With the boys, i’d avoid anything ending in -on too (or the same sound) for the same reason as [name]Ashtyn[/name]. [name]Noah[/name] and [name]Parker[/name] work nicely. [name]Brantley[/name] [name]Weston[/name] sounds ok, but it also comes across as desperately WASP-y to me, like a spoiled rich kid from Gossip Girl or something like that. [name]Noah[/name] or [name]Parker[/name] sound more like real people.

For middles…hmm. [name]Kylie[/name] needs something solid in the middle, like [name]Elizabeth[/name]. [name]Leah[/name] can handle something funkier, like…[name]Persephone[/name]? not sure. [name]Zara[/name] could go either way. Not sure about the boys. [name]Do[/name] you have any family names or other potential sources of inspiration for meaningful middles?

@kates86:

It was so good to hear your oppinion! It’s similar to mine and I’m anxious to show my bf this!
From all the suggestions [name]Carson[/name] [name]James[/name] was deffinitly my favorite, and I’m highly considering that name for a boy! [name]Parker[/name] [name]Reid[/name] is also cute!

For girls my favorites are [name]Zara[/name] and [name]Riley[/name]! But I can’t seem to find a middle name that I love!
[name]Ashtyn[/name] glad you don’t like, cuz I do not like it at all. I don’t even know where this came from. I never heard it before he came home with it… too made up and weird to me.

@Spring13:

Thank you so much for all the opinions you gave me! I have 2 brothers [name]Jonah[/name] [name]Aidan[/name] and [name]Roman[/name] [name]Leo[/name], but with the names I’m considering don’t really know where to fir any of those! My dad’s name is [name]Preston[/name] [name]Michael[/name] so at first I was considering using [name]Preston[/name], but my cousin used it for her son so is out of the picture…

[name]Riley[/name]
[name]Zoey[/name]
[name]Zarah[/name] / [name]Zara[/name]
[name]Kylie[/name]
[name]Chloe[/name]
[name]Leah[/name]
[name]Kaylee[/name]
[name]Ashtyn[/name] (not sure about this one, but daddy loves it)

[name]Carson[/name]
[name]Noah[/name]
[name]Brantley[/name]
[name]Mason[/name]
[name]Chase[/name]
[name]Parker[/name] (Dad’s pick)
[name]Bryson[/name] (Dad’s favorite)
[name]Maxwell[/name]

Personally would not do [name]Carson[/name], [name]Mason[/name], or [name]Bryson[/name] because with [name]Weston[/name] as a last name - it’s very “son” heavy. [name]Maxwell[/name] [name]Weston[/name] is my favorite of your choices. For girls - [name]Chloe[/name], zara, or zoey with your last name. [name]Ashtyn[/name] looks odd. At least spell it [name]Ashton[/name].

I’m going to be honest with you so watch out.

[name]Riley[/name]-dislike
[name]Zoey[/name]-dislike but better without the y
[name]Zarah[/name] / [name]Zara[/name]- [name]Zara[/name] I like
[name]Kylie[/name] -dislike
[name]Chloe[/name]-dislike
[name]Leah[/name]-like but doesn’t it mean something like cows bottom? and also at the bottom of your post it said thanks,[name]Leah[/name]. So is that your name?
[name]Kaylee[/name]-dislike but especially this spelling. If you’re going to use it then what about [name]Kayleigh[/name].
[name]Ashtyn[/name]-dislike and sounds bad with your last name.

Suggestions:
[name]Cleo[/name] (like [name]Chloe[/name] but not as popular)
[name]Mikaela[/name] or [name]Michaela[/name]
[name]Cassie[/name] or [name]Cassia[/name]
[name]Georgie[/name]
[name]Alexis[/name] or [name]Alexa[/name]
[name]Elektra[/name]

Tell me which ones you like and I can suggest middles for you.

I like [name]Zara[/name] for a girl for you. [name]How[/name] about [name]Zara[/name] [name]Grace[/name] [name]Weston[/name]? [name]Zara[/name] [name]Jane[/name] [name]Weston[/name]? Something one or three syllables would work best.

For boys, I like [name]Noah[/name] and [name]Chase[/name]. To Incorporate dad’s picks, how about [name]Noah[/name] [name]Parker[/name] [name]Weston[/name]? I alsolike [name]Chase[/name] [name]Maxwell[/name] [name]Weston[/name].
