Isab3lle - I think your list of names is great - at the end of the day it doesn't matter what other people think of the name you choose for your child, as long as you love it that is all that matters! Out of those names I particularly like Isabella and Jade for obvious reasons!

but also Liliana and Savannah.

I have answered what I can... some names don't stir a response from me mainly because I don't know anyone with that name! Just remember though to pick something YOU love! The name you chose will be associated with your bub and all the first responses to the name you chose will soon be forgotten hun. So don't let my answers or anyone else's put you off any names if you love them! I know a little boy call Marshall! I first balked at the thought of a kid being called Marshall but now I can't imagine him being call any other name

So I hope this helps somewhat!

Hailey- A loud mouth I went to school with. I also think of people in their late 20's (not sure why!)
Helena-
Hope- I love this name!
Ingrid- Old fashioned name
Iris- A grandma
Isabella- I love this name too.... and think of a gorgeous BB friends beautiful DD!
Jade- A gf of mine... Cute name though

Jean- A Grandma's name!
Jenna-
Juliet- A pretty name!
Kate- A plain jane name
Kathleen- Hi Five!
Kathryn-
Katie-
Keira-
Kristen-
Laura-
Laurel- Jerry McGuire character!
Lena-
Liliana
Lindsey- Lohan!
Louise
Lucille
Margaret- Thatcher!
Michelle-
Morgan- Cute name!
Natasha
Nicole
Quinn
Ruby
Sage-
Sarah- A gorgeous BB friend

Savannah- I LOVE this name and have this on my list! It to me is a freeing name... I think it is because I think of Africa and the plains. Am I wierd?

Shannon
Shia
Sophie- I love this name... very sweet
Suranne- Not
Theresa-
Trinity-
Victoria-

I'll read through again later when I have more time and see if I can add anything else!

My need to not procrastinate means I can't go through your whole list however:
Sophie - every Sophie I have ever met was pretty, smart and easy to get along with
Natasha - is one of my fave names although have never known anyone really closely with that name.
Goodluck on whatever you chose!

**Macca79** · January 11th, 2009, 12:56 PM

I think you have a good list. It looks like you have put a fair bit of thought into making it. I say go with the name that feels right for you at the right moment.

**echidna** · January 11th, 2009, 01:15 PM

I love many of those names. Here's an idea, write another list pairing names off together, perhaps shortening your list. See if that makes your decision easier. Liliana Sage sounds pretty to me. Are you having a girl? I always found girl names came to me more readily than boy names. We have a boy's name we both like, but its not important as we're not TTC yet. And I have to say, it was quite mean to correct you on grammar without even replying to your question. I personally am a bit anal about spelling and grammar but I keep that to myself as it is not my place to correct another's speech.

**Astrolady** · January 11th, 2009, 01:34 PM

Kathryn and Margaret are fine... Since they are my names lol

**Floweryfields** · January 11th, 2009, 01:35 PM

What I think:

Hailey - don't like it
Helena - too supermodelly
Hope - nice (bit american if anything)
Ingrid - very old fashioned
Iris - again old fashioned - reminds me of a 70+ old lady I knew - she was a nice lady though
Isabella - nice
Jade - don't like
Jean - too male
Jenna - like it
Juliet - okay
Kate - know too many Kates
Kathleen - yuck
Kathryn - yuck again
Katie - okay
Keira - never heard this one
Kristen - okay
Laura - nope
Laurel - nope
Lena - never heard this one either
Liliana - nice
Lindsey - nope
Louise - nice (my middle name)
Lucille - nope
Margaret - my first name - don't know anyone young with this name
Michelle - nope
Morgan - okay
Natasha - nope
Nicole - nope
Quinn - hmmm, I know a family with this for a surname
Ruby - okay again old fashioned
Sage - nope
Sarah - like it
Savannah - like it
Shannon - nope
Shia - not heard of it
Sophie - like it
Suranne - not heard of it
Theresa - NO
Trinity - nope
Victoria - okay

BUT like said above, it's not up to anyone else to like or dislike as long and you and your hubby do is all that matters.

**~Kim~** · January 11th, 2009, 01:51 PM

Liliana Sage sounds pretty to me.

I totally agree.

**Snacks** · January 11th, 2009, 01:58 PM

My faves are:
Hope, Kate, Keira, Quinn and Sage. But they are all lovely names

**echidna** · January 11th, 2009, 02:04 PM

Almost all of those names, when I look at them I picture a baby girl to see if the name fits. TBH those "old" names are pretty when put to a baby. When I think Iris, I think of a pretty flower. Helena sounds powerfuly to me, as I think of the Greek goddess Helena or perhaps I'm confused with Helen of Troy. Ingrid, I went to school with an Ingrid, she spoke french but her family were not from France but from a french speaking country south of France. I try not to think of people when thinking of names. I think of pretty names that sound soft and loving. Hope is common but means a lot. One of my cousins has the middle name of Hope and her sister has the middle name of Grace. My aunt is very spiritual, and has two angel babies before her eldest.

It might surprise you to know that this is actually in the forum guidelines about Netiquette here https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...uidelines.html and in particular, point 8. This came about because we actually do get posts reported for text speak. So as a moderator I find it hard to sit by when someone does a thread title and post using it. It is a condition of membership that ALL members read the guidelines before they post.

Enchanted · January 11th, 2009, 03:10 PM

Even so Trill, I thought it may have been a wiser move to direct this member to the Guidlines and not come up with a smart reply. You posted as a Member with your opinion and not as a Mod.

**echidna** · January 11th, 2009, 03:20 PM

TBH, I agree with Oshani. As a moderator, you should be more diplomatic and assertive. When you disagreed with her type of speech, you ridiculed her and did not point out the guideline.

**LisaL** · January 11th, 2009, 03:23 PM

Oshani - I agree, this member is still very new (10 posts) and that directing her to the guidelines may have been a nicer way..

Isab3lle, the names are nice, but i think you need to narrow the list a little and maybe you should run through and write down your first impression of each name to help you narrow it down..

Lisa

**Trillian** · January 11th, 2009, 03:32 PM

You're right, maybe it shouldn't have been said and as such I am big enough to acknowledge that and remove my post. But the fact remains that new member or not, the guidelines are not there for the sake of it and should be adhered to.

**Aimz** · January 11th, 2009, 03:32 PM

My favourites from your list are Quinn and Sage!

**Mumma2three** · January 11th, 2009, 04:08 PM

Correct me if Im wrong, but I thought we got a private post if there was a problem. A warning? Probably a kinder way of doing it.
