Naomi what??

Hi. My hubby and I have finally settled on a girls name. Naomi. We both love the old fashioned sound of the name. Can anyone help us with a middle name. Ideas I have had are:

Naomi Katherine
Naomi Margaret (after my Grandmother)
Naomi Caroline (after our first daughter that was stillborn)

Any other thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!!

I also like Naomi Caroline. It sounds the best and it has a special meaning to your family.

Hi. Congratulations on your little girl! I really love the name Naomi! I like the sound of Naomi Katherine and Naomi Caroline. However, I would avoid naming your new daughter after another one of your children, simply because you already have a child with that name, and Naomi may want to have her own identity. (just my humble opinion, please don't feel that I am saying that with any judgement or in a negative way toward you at all. I understand your reason for wanting to honor her as well.) Also, I think pairing Naomi with a shorter middle name may flow the best. How long is your last name? You wouldn't want her to have a horrible loooong name, ya know?

Some thoughts:

Naomi Claire
Naomi Rae
Naomi Beth
Naomi Belle (since Caroline means beautiful, you could use Belle, which has the same meaning, but is a different name...)
Naomi Lyn (Lyn also means beautiful)
Naomi Marie
Naomi Rose

Good luck!

I agree with the pps. I'd choose Naomi Caroline hands down. I like the sound of it and the fact that it has special meaning to you is important. HTH!

I think Naomi Caroline would be a lovely choice. I can imagine that she would be proud to be named after her sister whom she never got to meet.

Congrats on choosing a fn! My name is Naomi, so of course I like your choice! My mn is Jo, and I like Naomi Josephine. I also like all of your choices. I don't think you can go wrong with those.

I like Naomi Caroline! Especially because of it's significance in your family.

But before I saw your choices, I thought of Naomi Christine. My best friend picked that name out years ago, but keeps having boys! ;-)

Good luck!
