According to 5 different online quizzes I’m having a girl, according to the needle test I’m having a boy, according to my husband I’m having a boy, according to my mother I’m having a girl… WE’LL SEE!!!
I’m pretty convinced it’s a girl, maybe that’s just me. This pregnancy feels so much more like [name]Emilia[/name]'s pregnancy than [name]Oliver[/name] or [name]Henry[/name]'s. I crave the same things as I did with [name]Emilia[/name], my stomach looks the same, my face looks the same, my hair looks the same (bad), my acne is the same (very bad), and my morning sickness is the same (very very bad). I am also craving sour patch kids and twizzlers…YUM.
Anyway, girl options so far are: [name]Charlotte[/name], [name]Isabelle[/name], [name]Violet[/name], [name]Eliza[/name], [name]Scarlett[/name], and [name]Piper[/name]. Middle names: [name]Evelyn[/name] [name]Elaine[/name] [name]Marie[/name] [name]Lane[/name] [name]Lynn[/name] [name]Rose[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] [name]Jane[/name] [name]Sophia[/name] [name]Anne[/name]

[name]Baby[/name] number four has 4 weeks to go, hoping he stays long enough to be perfectly healthy, but praying she gets out as soon as possible!
Can I just say, I love your style? :] [name]Isabelle[/name] and [name]Violet[/name] are on my top 5; [name]Charlotte[/name]'s on my top 10; [name]Emilia[/name]'s one of my favorite Shakespearean names ever, and once upon a time [name]Eliza[/name] was my top pick for a girl, too. For very selfish reasons, [name]Isabelle[/name] gets my vote (it’s my top choice for a girl and I rarely see it get unadulterated love around here like [name]Violet[/name] or [name]Charlotte[/name] would, and I love the French spelling, as well), but with your children, I actually like something like [name]Violet[/name] or [name]Charlotte[/name] more.
In order of preference:
[name]Isabelle[/name] [name]Jane[/name] (my former [name]Isabelle[/name] combo, too, actually–this is kind of ironic, haha)
[name]Violet[/name] [name]Anne[/name] ([name]LOVE[/name] this combo!)
[name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Jane[/name]
If you were open to it, I would love to see [name]Isabelle[/name] [name]Grace[/name], [name]Isabelle[/name] [name]Daphne[/name], [name]Violet[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] (my combo. Guilty!), [name]Violet[/name] [name]Noelle[/name], [name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Eden[/name], or [name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Opal[/name]. I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Charlotte[/name] [name]Olive[/name], as well, but that might be too close to [name]Oliver[/name]'s name.
Thank you, [name]Ashley[/name]! I hadn’t even thought of [name]Ophelia[/name], it’s a very interesting name, and I rather like it! [name]Oliver[/name], [name]Henry[/name], [name]Emilia[/name], and [name]Violet[/name] sounds great, as well as [name]Oliver[/name], [name]Henry[/name], [name]Emilia[/name], and [name]Charlotte[/name]. I’m leaning a little more towards [name]Violet[/name], since it seems a little less common, and really adds personality to it. [name]Violet[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] and [name]Violet[/name] [name]Anne[/name] will definitely be big players in the game! What do you think of [name]Juliet[/name]/[name]Juliette[/name]? It has the Shakespearean theme, and I think it flows with the family, but what do you think?
Thanks!

I think… I want to like it, truly I do, but [name]Romeo[/name] and [name]Juliet[/name] as a play seems so overrated (why does it get so much more attention than Much [name]Ado[/name] about Nothing, for example? [name]Hero[/name]'s and [name]Claudio[/name]'s love story is so much more appealing to me there–or even [name]Viola[/name]'s and [name]Duke[/name] [name]Orsino[/name]'s in Twelfth [name]Night[/name]–than [name]Romeo[/name] and [name]Juliet[/name]–who honestly seem whiny, petulant and childish to me–and yet, they get all the love. So part of my issue is there, hahaha), and so by fault, [name]Juliet[/name] seems a bit overrated. Gorgeous name, though. I wish I loved it, because I love the whole rest of the Jul- camp ([name]Julian[/name], [name]Julia[/name], [name]Juliana[/name], [name]Julietta[/name]), but I have problems with [name]Juliet[/name], haha. I do think it’s a gorgeous MN, though, and I like it for someone else’s child. I like [name]Violet[/name] and [name]Charlotte[/name] (both in general, and for you) more than [name]Juliet[/name], but I do think [name]Oliver[/name], [name]Henry[/name], [name]Emilia[/name], and [name]Juliet[/name] does work very nicely. Speaking of [name]Shakespeare[/name], I think there are much better heroines/namesakes, too. [name]Emilia[/name] in The Comedy of Errors is noble, a wonderful picture of a mother, loving, kind, protective of the underdog. All great things to be esteemed, imo. While the story of [name]Romeo[/name] and [name]Juliet[/name] is nice, [name]Juliet[/name]'s not quite so strong and not quite as good of a role model as [name]Emilia[/name] is, imo.
For very selfish reasons, [name]Isabelle[/name] gets my vote (it’s my top choice for a girl and I rarely see it get unadulterated love around here like [name]Violet[/name] or [name]Charlotte[/name] would, and I
