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.

[Joeve]

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]

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]

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]

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

[~Kim~]

Liliana Sage sounds pretty to me.

I totally agree.

[Enchanted]

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

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!

[Floweryfields]

Isabella - nice
Jade - don't like
Jean - too male
Jenna - like it
Juliet - okay
Kate - know too many Kates
Kathleen - yuck

Kristen - okay
Laura - nope
Laurel - nope
Lena - never heard this one either
Liliana - nice
Lindsey - nope
Louise - nice (my middle name)

Hailey - Cute, a little bit 80's but still aceptable
Helena - 50 year old woman, dont see it working for child
Hope - slightly westy but very pretty. could be teased and called hopeless
Ingrid - LOVE IT, sophisticated and classic
Iris - cute in that so old its new again way, very unusal
Isabella - very very very very common. Izzy is a cute nickname though. I prefer Isabel
Jade - sort of unstylish and dated. But I know a GORGEOUS Jade. I think it only bothers me as a middle name.
Jean - nothing nice about it particularily
Jenna - dated and harsh sounding. Genavieve is prettier. Pronounced with soft G sound.
Juliet - she would get over the "wheres your romeo" comments
Kate - I love it spelt Cate. But Kate looks better if you want to use Katie. Adorable.
Kathleen - Older womans name that doesn't really work in 2009.
Kathryn - I know a 5 year old Katherine and I dont think it suits her. Too old for her.
Katie - LOVE IT. I think of a gorgeous little girl.
Keira - Is this like Kirra? Or Keera? It seems a bit westy.
Kristen - boring
Laura - pretty, and intelligent
Laurel - annoying and american
Lena - Very unusual but pretty name
Liliana - Game show host. lol. But could work for baby.
Lindsey - Lohan?
Louise - Doesnt suit small children. I know a few of them.
Lucille - Ball?
Margaret - I like nickname Maggie.
Michelle - very 80s. Most Michelles are having their own kids now. shelly is ok I guess.
Morgan - Very trendy. I think its adorable but would not actually do it.
Natasha - had its day along with leg warmers and banarama.
Nicole - see above.
Quinn - Trendy. Not a pretty name, but sort of spunky.
Ruby - Lovely. Cant go wrong with Ruby. Unless you spell it Rubi. Or Rubie
Sage - I would usually think its a boys name. But thats not a problem really. Its sweet.
Sarah - Means princess.
Savannah - westy. american.
Shannon - horrible.
Shia - sort of made up. Prefer Leah or somthing.
Sophie - Love it. Timeless and classy.
Suranne - huh?
Theresa - hate it.
Trinity - too sci fi. You might live to regret it once you get over the matrix. I know, it is a real name, but everone will just think of the movie straight away.
Victoria - I live there. Tori is nice.

You better read this lol. took me long enough.

Mama2two, I just want to let you know that Natasha didn't hide in the cupboard, her father imprisoned her in the basement ....

Echidna, I'm pretty sure the Natasha that Mama2two is referring to isn't the one you're thinking of. Without going into much detail, this Natasha - an Australian - hid herself in a cupboard of her own free will for several years, emerging approx 5-6 (more?) years ago.

Dunno that this will add anything to the chat about names - blame what my DH says is my "occasionally annoying habit of being too precise with details" .

Isab3lle - I like Lena and Jenna, but only you will know what name is the right fit for your bub.

Andie

[echidna]

Oh ok. I guess I never heard about that. Sorry mummy2two.

Isab3lle, how is the list going? Have you been able to match names up or narrow it down a bit more?

[isab3lle]

Oh ok. I guess I never heard about that. Sorry mummy2two.

Abigail: I love this name. Abi or Abby for short.
Alison: Pretty, Ally for short.
Angela: A little bit plain for me.
Carmen: Sounds spanish, would she (bubs) have dark hair?
Casie: is this Cassie or Casey? A bit plain for me.
Ella: Beautiful. I really like it.
Emma: Pretty
Faith: Pretty and has a lot of meaning behind it
Helena: Strong name
Jade: Really great if bubs has green eyes.
Juliet/Juliette: Classic beautiful
Kristen: a bit plain for me.

I really like the pretty sounding names, and other names will always be nice when put to a gorgeous baby, but as a name itself, some are a bit plain.

Great work on narrowing your list down! Do you feel its getting easier now, to choose a name?
