So, I have three names that I am currently considering adding to the list, however, I want to hear some berry opinions prior to deciding if they need to be on the list or on my guilty pleasure list.
Oh, and also DH just totally vetoed a name that I was falling in love with, [name_f]Maeve[/name_f], do any of you have any names that have the same feeling as [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] that husband might like?
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] is my favorite, I think it’s totally usable.
Similar to [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]:
[name_f]Maud[/name_f]
[name_f]May[/name_f]
[name_f]Maura[/name_f]
[name_f]Liv[/name_f]
[name_f]Eve[/name_f]
I like all 3 of these names. I didn’t know about the new Pixar princess [name_f]Merida[/name_f]–not something I follow–but I guess it’s wise to consider that it could explode soon. At least you’d be ahead of the game if you plan on using it soon.
I love [name_f]Esme[/name_f]–my favorite. And [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] is beautiful, and I love the nickname option of [name_u]Rory[/name_u]. So cute, esp for when she’s little–and if she’s a tomboy!
I love [name_f]Aurora[/name_f]. [name_f]Esme[/name_f] is nice, too, even though feels nicknamey to me —*I prefer Esmée. [name_f]Merida[/name_f] is too made up / Disney princess / unremarkable Spanish town.

1 [name_f]Esme[/name_f] - soft, feminine and otherworldly. [name_m]Add[/name_m] this one to your list.
2 [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] - not a big fan but it’s pretty. The r’s are hard to say for some people.
3 [name_f]Merida[/name_f] - Unless you have a special connection to the place, I don’t see the appeal.
sorceress - Thanks for telling me you think they are beautiful. I am glad to see [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] is well received, my DH likes this one a lot.
handsallover- Thanks for the suggestions! : ) I will run [name_f]Liv[/name_f], [name_f]Maura[/name_f], and [name_f]Eve[/name_f] by him.
emsky - TTC currently so if we used [name_f]Merida[/name_f] it would hopefully as you said be used prior to popularity, but I haven’t even told DH about that one yet, and most likely he will veto it, lol.
princessariel - Thanks for all of the lovely suggestions! I especially like [name_f]Mara[/name_f], and I do love [name_f]Sorcha[/name_f], I read a book with a really awesome character named [name_f]Sorcha[/name_f], but when I brought the name up to DH he said it was weird; silly man.
reeljagkb - I agree that [name_u]Rory[/name_u] is a good nn for [name_f]Aurora[/name_f].
erin91 - Thanks for telling me your faves.
sugarplumfairy - [name_f]Love[/name_f] so many of your suggestions. [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] and [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] DH has already vetoed, as you can see he doesn’t really get on the same page as me for names. I mean we agree on a few that are already on our “list” but most of the time I get the weird look like are you kidding me with that name. I will see if he likes [name_f]Aveline[/name_f] (which I hope he does as it has to do with a hazel nut tree and my Great Grandmother’s name was [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] so a cool way to honor her).
[name_u]Mischa[/name_u] - You always have wonderful perspective. Your description of how you see [name_f]Esme[/name_f] makes me love it even more! : ) Now, hopefully DH will love it too. We shall see. I definitely agree with you that [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] could have some issues for people as the r’s are difficult to say, gives me something to think about.
