Names for my girls

Momy91 · Apr 28th, 2009, 15:17 PM

OK, I did choose my names. Long ago, in the very beginning! But now I'm not sure, and at the moment I don't even like the names anymore! It's so stupid I know, but what shall I do? Pick new names just in case? Or just hold on to these?

Ugh I'm driving myself nuts... :')

I've had a first name picked out since before I ever planned on being pregnant, her middle was settled after months of deliberation between hubby and I, and I know what you mean about suddenly getting "cold feet" now that she's almost here - what if she doesn't look like her name?! So I have a few back-ups in mind in case my husband and I look at her and decide she just doesn't fit the name we chose for her.

But I really do love the name we have right now - Olivia Belle.

Other names we considered included:
Julia
Chloe
Ryen
Claire (my middle name)
Leigh (feminized version of my husband's middle name, Lee)

We really wanted the middle name to be family-related, and the one we're going with is actually one of my husband's grandmother's middle names. So that's one thing to consider - got any favorite aunts or other female relatives?

The names were Laurel Faye and Olivia Rayne...
If it was just one girl it would have been Josephine Allison or Megan Elizabeth, but even these don't sound right anymore

If they were a boy it would have been Brent Michael or Lukas Connor. If they were twinboys I have noooo idea :')

Good to hear I'm not the only one :')

I think those names are really beautiful! Laurel was another name I had considered. I studied ancient Roman history in college so I was really into all the related female names.

awww those names sound so nice the names i'd thought of were Morgan or Adele or Crystal but they just don't sound right

OH I love the name Reese too but it didn't sound right with our surname. Maybe as a middle name?

I really like Chloe too, I considered Zoe for a while, but since I found out they are not just one baby, I had to find something that sounds right together too.
I actually did pick family names in the other ones. Elizabeth is my grandmothers name and Josephine my great grandmothers name...
Ugh why is it so hard to pick names :')
