We have narrowed down our list to:
[name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u]
[name_f]Hayley[/name_f]
[name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f]
[name_u]Skylar[/name_u]
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f]
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] ([name_u]Stevie[/name_u])
But we can’t seem to pick a top 3. Any help would be appreciated and middle name suggestions would be great.
Would it help to match these names up to make your top 3? That way all names make an appearance; for example:
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u]
[name_u]Skylar[/name_u] [name_f]Stephanie[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Hayley[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]
Otherwise, I would suggest:
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_u]Marley[/name_u]
[name_u]Skylar[/name_u] [name_f]Emily[/name_f]
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_f]Madeline[/name_f]
[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.
Here are my thoughts:
[name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u]-I don’t love this for a girl. It seems dated, plus the pre-fix ‘mac’ means ‘son of’.
[name_f]Hayley[/name_f]-This is a bit overdone in the past 20 years, but I still find it sweet. Maybe because it was my beloved cat’s name whom I named when I was a little tyke. 
. This is my favorite spelling.
[name_f]Grace[/name_f]-This is solid and classic. [name_m]Way[/name_m] popular though, and not my personal style.
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f]-A bit trendy over the past decade or more. I like the classic alternative of [name_f]Susanna[/name_f].
[name_u]Skylar[/name_u]-This is too unisex and trendy. I love just [name_u]Skye[/name_u].
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f]-[name_f]Lovely[/name_f] classic.
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] ([name_u]Stevie[/name_u]) -[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] is not my personal favorite, but it’s not something you hear on little ones much anymore. [name_u]Stevie[/name_u] is kind of cute.
[name_f]Hayley[/name_f] is my favorite from your list, although I bet you may run into spelling issues. You may anyway you spell it, I would think. There are so many accepted variations. Although [name_f]Hannah[/name_f] is my second favorite, I think my next vote may actually go to [name_u]Stevie[/name_u]. It’s refreshing. [name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps.
I like [name_f]Hannah[/name_f], [name_f]Savannah[/name_f] and [name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] best
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_f]Emilia[/name_f]
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u]
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_u]Eloise[/name_u]
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_f]Autumn[/name_f]
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Hayley[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Emily[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] [name_u]Taylor[/name_u]
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] [name_f]Lucille[/name_f]
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] [name_f]Emma[/name_f]
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] [name_f]Beth[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f], [name_f]Hannah[/name_f] and [name_f]Hayley[/name_f] would be my top 3.
My top 3 (in order of preference) would be:
I only actually like [name_f]Grace[/name_f] out of those names, but it is far too popular for me to actually use.
[name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_f]Joy[/name_f], [name_u]Halle[/name_u] or [name_f]Susannah[/name_f]? I love them!
It seems to me you really like names that have the soft “ahh” sound, or “ie” ending.
[name_u]Jackie[/name_u]
[name_f]Valerie[/name_f]
[name_f]Melody[/name_f]
[name_f]Natalie[/name_f]
[name_f]Averie[/name_f]
[name_f]Maisie[/name_f]
[name_f]Bonnie[/name_f]
[name_f]Miranda[/name_f]
[name_f]Alannah[/name_f]
[name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f]Delilah[/name_f]
[name_f]Roseanna[/name_f]
Here are some combos from your list:
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] (I really like this one)
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Hayley[/name_f] [name_f]Savannah[/name_f]
[name_u]Skylar[/name_u] [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u]
Admittedly I think I’d like [name_u]Stevie[/name_u] as a given name more than [name_f]Stephanie[/name_f], but it is a cute and refreshing nickname to be sure! [name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] feels a little dated (much like [name_f]Brittany[/name_f] and [name_u]Ashley[/name_u]) but at the same time she wouldn’t necessarily meet many other [name_f]Stephanie[/name_f]s her age which could be nice. It still ranks in the top 300 but that doesn’t actually translate to that many kiddos across the board.
I like [name_f]Hannah[/name_f] a lot. It has a more consistent popularity which helps it to not feel dated. She might run into a few other [name_f]Hannah[/name_f]s (ranked #32 in 2017) but it’s not a top 10 name so she likely wouldn’t have 5 other [name_f]Hannah[/name_f]s in class or anything like that. I like the combo of [name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u], in general I like surname names better in the middle spot.
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] has a similar appeal to [name_f]Hannah[/name_f] and unsurprisingly ranks similarly too (#38 in 2017)
I don’t actually find [name_u]Skylar[/name_u] that trendy. It’s seen pretty consistent popularity for long enough now that it doesn’t risk dating too strongly, it’s been in and around the top 100 for some 20 odd years now. This is one of your strongest choices to me. While a popular name, it still has a refreshing imagery and many of your other names would work as great middles. ([name_u]Skylar[/name_u] [name_f]Grace[/name_f], [name_u]Skylar[/name_u] [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u], [name_u]Skylar[/name_u] [name_f]Hannah[/name_f], [name_u]Skylar[/name_u] [name_f]Hayley[/name_f].)
[name_f]Grace[/name_f] is an ever popular virtue name. I see it everywhere, and I mean everywhere, which makes me lean in favor of the middle spot for this one.
[name_f]Hayley[/name_f] is sweet, ages well, and is the least likely of your names here for your kid to encounter a ton of on the playground. Looking at the style of a lot of your other names, this seems like it hits a sweet spot with the sounds and look you are going for. [name_f]Hayley[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] or [name_f]Hayley[/name_f] [name_f]Savannah[/name_f] would be quite cute!
[name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u], as mentioned before, is a surname name, with “[name_m]Mac[/name_m]” being a suffix. For this reason I like it better as a middle than as a first name. That being said [name_u]Kenzie[/name_u], without the suffix, is a great given name that I think fits well in the style of your other choices like [name_f]Hayley[/name_f], [name_u]Skylar[/name_u], and [name_u]Stevie[/name_u]. If it was something you’d consider, [name_u]Kenzie[/name_u] would probably be my top pick.
As your list currently stands [name_f]Hayley[/name_f] is my top choice, followed by [name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] “[name_u]Stevie[/name_u]”, and [name_u]Skylar[/name_u].
My top middle from your list, unless you already have a set middle name, is [name_f]Grace[/name_f]. Followed by [name_u]Makenzie[/name_u] if [name_u]Kenzie[/name_u] isn’t a consideration as a first name.
My favorites (in order) are [name_f]Savannah[/name_f], [name_f]Grace[/name_f], and [name_f]Hannah[/name_f].
[name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u]: I think this name is a little bit dated, and I’m not a huge fan of it for a girl.
[name_f]Hayley[/name_f]: Once again, this was once trendy but feels a bit dated now, and I foresee lots of spelling troubles because there are so many variations of this name.
[name_f]Grace[/name_f]: I love this. It’s simple, elegant, and a virtue name, which endows it with a beautiful meaning and spirit. It’s classic and popular, and for good reason.
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f]: My favorite on your list. It’s evocative, sweet, and strong, modern without being trendy, and never goes out of style. It’s very elegant and feminine as well.
[name_u]Skylar[/name_u]: This is my number four. It’s very spunky and bright, and is modern but I think it could definitely last in popularity.
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f]: Another one I really love. Classic, gentle, elegant, and substantial.
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] ([name_u]Stevie[/name_u]): [name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] still feels a bit dated to me, although I love the bright, unexpected nickname.
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] is my favorite bc I love nn [name_u]Stevie[/name_u]!
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f], [name_f]Grace[/name_f] and [name_u]Skylar[/name_u] would be my top 3.
I’ve just ranked them fav to least:
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f]
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] (love [name_u]Stevie[/name_u])
[name_u]Skylar[/name_u]
[name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Hayley[/name_f]
[name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f]
The top 5 I would almost rank the same! I couldn’t pick an absolute number 1
If you’re concerned with popularity I would remove [name_f]Grace[/name_f].
Based on “nice sounds” I would remove [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] and [name_f]Savannah[/name_f]. The other names on your list have a nice soft sound without being overly girly.
My favourites are [name_f]Grace[/name_f], [name_f]Hannah[/name_f] and [name_u]Stevie[/name_u] ([name_f]Stephanie[/name_f]). I like [name_f]Hayley[/name_f] but it has been overdone in past decades.
My favorite are [name_f]Hannah[/name_f], [name_f]Grace[/name_f], and [name_f]Stephanie[/name_f]. I really like [name_u]Stevie[/name_u] as a nickname for [name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] and I think that freshens up a classic. That said, [name_f]Hannah[/name_f] would be my top pick. [name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] is gorgeous.
You have some beautiful choices here!
[name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] - [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] is a really cool name, and I don’t mind it, but I do think it will become dated. It is quite trendy though and I can’t picture an old woman named [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u]. However could still work if you love it!!
[name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] [name_f]Adele[/name_f]
[name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] [name_f]Claire[/name_f]
[name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] [name_u]Harper[/name_u] (this is the name of a little girl I babysit :))

[name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]
[name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] [name_f]Summer[/name_f]
[name_f]Hayley[/name_f] - I do quite like the name [name_f]Hayley[/name_f] but to be honest it has been pretty popular over the past few decades and I feel it is starting to tire. With that said I still think it’s a very sweet and feminine sounding name.
[name_f]Hayley[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]

[name_f]Hayley[/name_f] [name_f]Nova[/name_f]
[name_f]Hayley[/name_f] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u]
[name_f]Grace[/name_f] - my name is [name_f]Grace[/name_f] and I really really like my name :). I realise it is quite popular however I don’t know sooo many that I think it should deter you from using it (I live in Australia). Being very timeless you wouldn’t have to worry about it becoming dated, plus it will age well.
[name_f]Grace[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Grace[/name_f] [name_f]Francesca[/name_f]

[name_f]Grace[/name_f] [name_f]Madeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Grace[/name_f] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] - Ok, I could talk about how obsessed I am with name for hours on end! Despite many considering it trendy, I don’t feel it is so. I love the Southern charm and feminine yet down to earth nature of it. This would hands down be my favourite choice!!
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_u]Eloise[/name_u]

[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_u]Skylar[/name_u] - A really pretty name, used to be one of my favourites. Now I much prefer just [name_u]Skye[/name_u] :). However [name_u]Skylar[/name_u] is still a great name!
[name_u]Skylar[/name_u] [name_f]Camille[/name_f]

[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] - [name_f]ADORE[/name_f] this name! If I didn’t have a sister named [name_f]Hannah[/name_f] I would definitely use it one day!
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f]

[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f]
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] ([name_u]Stevie[/name_u]) - Sorry but not a fan. Feels very dated and not overly refreshing. No offence to anyone but just my opinion. However if you like it here are some suggestions!
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f]

My favourites are:
Good luck choosing and let us know what you go with!!
I love [name_u]Skylar[/name_u], [name_f]Savannah[/name_f] and [name_f]Grace[/name_f]. [name_u]Skylar[/name_u] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] (as others have suggested) sounds lovely! I don’t find [name_u]Skylar[/name_u] or [name_f]Savannah[/name_f] too trendy (though I don’t like [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] for that reason, even though it was a trend awhile back.)
They all look so dated from the 1980’s & 1990’s. I’d go back to the drawing board.
