Need some help for a baby girl

Hey ive been lurking one and off for a few weeks now - thought i would introduce myself - im Steph having my first baby in April (EDD April 4th) and we found out a week ago that she is more than likely a girl! So we have picked Ella Caite but we are still looking around - Im pretty open to all names - mostly english names though.. My partner on the other hand decides if he likes a name by the people he knew - so hes a bit hit and miss.. i was just wondering if any of you would be kind enough to shout some name choices at me.. Im so sick of looking at baby name books and sites!! Its so overwhelming!! (I also like the names Sophia, Claudia, Lillian, Scarlett) Any suggestions would be awesome Thanks 8-)

Hi, Steph! I'm also on your April EC board. I think Ella Caite is a lovely name! I look forward to seeing what other names people here suggest.

Wow thank you so much!! I love the idea of combining our names (ever since i saw "Josa" i think its an awesome idea!) but Joshua hates the idea.. men.. go figure.

I loved all those suggestions but especially Carys Lillian, Vivian Scarlet, Ellerie Paige and Ainsley Caite! Sadly Joshua didnt like many :( I love the name Vera (after Vera Wang whom i love even more than the name!) and again Joshua hates it - hes just too hard to please! He says he likes "Lilly" "Abigail" "Scarlet" that is all.. :( i wanted to name this one Lillian Jessica (Jessica after my sister) and he doesnt think they flow - and doesnt like Lillian.. hes so difficult!!! Any other suggestions? Seems he likes Traditional English that is now common again :S Thanks again

Congrats - Ella Caite is very cute (I could see it definitely becoming a double name too - cute!)
If he likes Lilly and he likes more traditional names, I have heard of people using Elisabeth/Elizabeth with the nn Lilly. Also, Lilly on its own is very nice.

A couple of other suggestions:
Amelia
Charlotte
Isabel
Claire
Clara
Cora
Victoria
Jane
Chelsea
Josie (or as a nn to Josephine or Joselyn)
Annabelle
Caroline

HTH! Good Luck!

How about...Lilith Jessica, Liliana Jessica or something like that.


Let me know if you want more combos - I'll try to come up with a few... send names that he kinda likes - maybe I can make variations that might work for you... gl
