Brooke -is an OK name, I personally don't care for 1-syllable names very often, especially girls
Bailey - too unisex, last-namey
Bria - eeh, kinda cute
Bella - hate this name
Belinda - love this, sooooo under-used, Bindi is cute nn, although you don't hear that often, except on Steve Irwin's daughter
Brielle - like this a lot

Brooke- this is fine



Bailey- I like this but unfortunately I know 4 Baileys and all of them are furry "kids".

Into 'B' names, huh? ;)


My thoughts-


Brooke-This is nms, but it's not awful.

Brooke - This is okay. Not my favorite but not horrible either.

Bailey - This is a cute enough name, but it does seem kind of masculine and last-name-ish.

Bria - I like this as a nickname for Gabrielle, or a similar name. I also like Brianna.

Bella - This seems too nickname-y to stand on its own. I like it as a nickname for Isabella, though. However Isabella does seem to be incredibly popular lately.

Belinda - This is interesting. I like it...you could use Bella as a nickname here too.

Brielle - Again, I would say that this is too nickname-y to stand on its own. I like it as a nickname for Gabrielle.

Another B name you might like is Bridget. Or Britta. WDYT?
