need a 1st name for a girl!
| Fri, 06-24-2005 - 8:07pm |
A good friend of mine is expecting her first, a little girl. She loves the name Isabella (as do I), but she doesn't want anything in the top ten. This is why she is using Isabella as a middle name. Thing is, she can't think of a first name. What do you think? What goes well with Isabella with a three syllable last name? Nothing in the top ten which leaves out Emily, Emma, Madison, Olivia, Hannah, Abigail, Ashley, Samantha, and Elizabeth which were the top ten plus Isabella in 2004.
Thanks once again!

I think if they love the name they should use it. It's not like every little girl in her class will be Isabella. My son's 2nd grade classroom next year will have two Spencers in it. I'm sure the parents thought they were picking a unique name.
Moving it to the middle name spot seems sad to me, because middle names are used so rarely. I think it's nicer to use a family name for the middle name so there is some story behind it, rather than just a runner-up name.
I would go for a one of two syllable first name...since her name is already long...
