My baby name dilema!
Hubby and i take turns in choosing the childrens names, how ever when it was hubbys choice i agreed if i could change the spelling, this time it is my turn to pick, and i have my boys name already chosen and has been on my top list for over a year, hubby also has his boys name that is second on my list.
Since before i had my mc last year i have had my girls name picked out, but now im starting to re think it! I have 3 girls and 2 have unisex names, so when choosing a name for this baby if a girl i woud like another girly girl name.
I ran the boys names past the children, didnt tell them who choose what and everyone picked my name, also ran it past my mum and my choice was her fav, how ever she didnt like my girls name :( Hubby still wont agree on my boys name.
So the boys names are...
Hubby- Seth
Me- Cruz
My girls name was Amber but now im thinking is that what i really want, the second name on my list is a unisex name, it is Payten, but i want to avoid the unisex thing this time.
So my childrens names are.....
Hubby- Grace - Girl
Me- Hunter - Boy
Hubby- Bailea (Bailey) - Girl
Me- Emmerson - Girl
Hubby- Kainne (Kane) - Boy
So now i have a new dilema, to find a girly girl name that will fit in with our other names, and as we have a LOT of family on both sides, i need a name that hasnt already be used, and then there is the hubby, now he is the biggest obsticle, he is a very tough critic!
Also i dont like to use the same letters as i have already, so G, H, B, E, K are out and probaby L and D.
So please help me, is there any name out there better than Amber?

Just wanted to say that I've never heard of Payten as a boy's name and I think it's quite a girly name
Just my opinion :)
-
Isn't she looking for girls names?
ETA, I didn't remember your criteira, lol, sorry if the names I suggested don't fit!!
-
I like Amber. I think it is a pretty, girly name. I'm not keen on Payton, it reminds me too much of the word 'patent'.
With your boys names, I prefer your DH's choice.
Good luck!
-
I think Amber is beautiful. Peyton I'm not so hooked on, bit boyish for me.
How about
India
Isla
Jewel
Audrey
....umm will come back with more in a bit
-
I like Peyton, (spelt any way) it's a really pretty name and a couple of the others suggested beautiful girls names like Violet, Audrey & Milly. They are pretty names too. Good luck.
-
One of the names on Rowellen's list is the name we've picked if baby is a girl - it will be spelled differently though. :) (I want to keep it a secret as much as possible - not coz I think you're going to steal it, just coz I worry people will bag the name... But it certainly narrows it down)
I like Amber - One friend I had was Ambah.
My cousin's daughter is Allegra (prounced : A-leigh-gra)
I still have Audrey on my list... as well as Celeste
-
Thanks for all the sugestions, i will read them all out to hubby when he gets home from work, hubby sugested tennasee (sp) as in the american name, i dont like it and i dont think it goes with our names.
I liked Addison, but i think it clashes with Emmerson, same as Imogen. I had Claudia on my list for a past baby, i might have to mention that again to hubby.
Even though its my turn to pick he still has to like it and he just says no to everything!
-
Try mybaby.net.au ... They have a pretty large variety of baby names! I'm still looking for names too and our baby is due to arrive within the next 3 weeks.
For a girl I think theses names are pretty, girly girl names..
Alliyah
Amber
Ciara(h)
Faith
Jasmine (not sure where you would put a H?)
Mariah
Nevaeh
Yasmine
I agree that peyton isn't very girly, something similar could be Paitence ?
But that's just my opinion so I don't want to turn you off the name or anything..
& I love the name Seth for a boy!
Good Luck & happy hunting!
-
OMG!! Your DD is named Emmerson!! I LOVE IT!!!
We Want to use Emmerson for our bub. I originally wanted it for a boy but now we are thinking of just naming the first born Emmerson regardless of the Gender! Its such a beautiful name!
The other names I like for girls are:
Amity
Amelia
Evalee
Leighton
Ivy
Mahlia
Aria
I personally like Payten. For me, I prefer Payten over Amber.
Hope you can think of something! :)

I have to say Amber is such a pretty name but if your already questioning if there is a 'better' name out there then Amber then to me it sounds like your not sold on the name so to speak (hope that's ok for me to comment on, but then maybe i'm wrong and you do truely LOVE the name Amber, well of course i hope you do ;))
I'm a big fan of Lyla since i knew a lovely little girl named Lyla in my DD's Mother's Group :D
other names ;
Adele
Ariane (my DDs middle name meaning 'Holy')
Corinne
Jasmine
Laura
Lauren
Lorinda
