Yes, the fateful day has nearly arrived and rather than sort through millions of baby name websites I thought I'd consult the hordes of brilliant readers that frequent this blog. It's pretty simple, really, just drop your pick(s) for girl's names in the comments and I'll sort through them and see if any of the names really stick. I truly do need your help on this.
As with any contest/submission, points are at stake. I'll award the person who submits the winning name a whopping 5,000 points. If you don't know about my points system, read back or search "points" and you'll be up to speed. The cutoff is 6 PM Central tonight (Tuesday).
In the spirit of new things, in my case a baby, MinnPics is showcasing at least one fresh and stunning photo from the great state of Minnesota each day.
I've always liked these names:

And there's this cool site that lets you see popularity data and trends by year for name (look up your own name, it's interesting):

Let us know what ends up grabbing both of you!
Too bad she's not a boy. I would go with "Orb". That way, when he's older you could flip it to "bro"...
ReplyDeleteOops, commented on wrong post! Lydia Anne...
ReplyDeleteAudrey
ReplyDeleteArianna
Elise
Lily or Lila
Alana (pronounced ahlahnah or elainah)
or of course Leah
I am quite fond of the name Haley.
ReplyDeleteAnd I also like the names Adrienne and Addison.
ah, you have asked the nomenclature addict. give me an idea of your criteria and i'll make a list for you.
ReplyDeletedo you want a name that is popular or uncommon? do you like trendy modern names (Madison, Riley, Kaylynn), soft classic names (Catherine, Rose, Olivia), unisex names (Reese, Mason, Sloane, Jordan), hippie names (Willow, Tempest, Story, Lyric), short names, long names, double names, ultra-feminine names? Flower names, jewel names or color names? Any family members you'd like to honor?

DARN IT! I'm too late and I was here on time too but then a little 5 y/o wanted to play chess!
ReplyDeleteI vote for Scarlett too though.
Drats...I, too am late!
ReplyDeleteMy vote would have been Rylee Marie (it's the name of my grandgirl who will arrive in January!)
Looking forward to learning your final decision!

I'm late but I don't care. I like Ruby or Lulu. Hey and there's nothing wrong with a good old Mary.
ReplyDeleteI love Lulu as well!
ReplyDeleteElisabeth (with an s)is pretty good, but I'm partial, of course.
