    need help choosing another girls name!

    So, we're expecting another little princess but the problem is we can't agree on any names!!
    With DD1 & DD2 it was so easy, we didn't even really have to think about it. But with this one, it's so much harder.
    DD1 is Nina Mae.
    DD2 is Emily Jayne.
    Ever since DD1 arrived dh wanted Maddison if we were to have another girl. I didn't, and I got my own way and got Emily. Now that we're expecting another pink bundle, dh is really wanting Maddison.
    Problem: my cousin has 2 DD's, Maddison and Emily. If we were to have Maddison, we would both have a Maddison & Emily! Although we don't live in the same town, we're still family IYKWIM. I just don't feel comfortable using it.

    A couple of names we've picked are:
    Breanna (my favourite)
    Sophie
    Natalie
    Jasmine

    So as you can see, we like plain jane sort of names.
    What does everyone think? DH and I really need help on this lol.
    And what about middle names? I would have loved to have used my nanna's middle name June, but I'm not sure that it will go with any of the names we've though of.

    Thanks

    I think Breanna June would go together okay

    I see what you mean about Maddison. I couldn't do that either no matter how much I liked a name.

    Jasmine is my favourite out of those you have listed though.

    My vote is Natalie June.

    I think Nina, Emily and Natalie is an awesome sib set; and I dont think Natalie is used enough these days, such a lovely name.

    What about Madeline? it could be spelt lots of ways, but that might be close enough to Maddison for DH but far enough for it to not be the same.

    How about this way... My goddaughter's sister's name is Breeanon because mum & dad couldn't pick between Breanna & another name so they joined them together, that way you get the Breanna part & DH can have the ending from Madisson

    I think you should go with your fav, Breanna. Because you will regret it otherwise. If your DH agrees of course.

    hmmm Sophie or Natalie are my faves and June goes great with all the names you've listed.
    I'm not a fan of Maddisun at all, but I really like Breeana. What about Bree?

    Thanks so much for the suggestions so far!!
    DH really doesn't like the name Breanna as he hates Bree, and is worried people will shorten it to that.
    sarah - I had Briannon on the list and he scrapped it. He's so difficult at times lol.
    Sophie & Natalie are definitely my next favourites on the list. Natalie was one of his picks actually. Natalie June Wylie ...
    Feeb & Krikkit, thanks so much for those suggestions. Some more to think about.
