Suggestions on names
| Wed, 02-01-2006 - 6:33pm |
Hi, I have never posted here before!! I like all the comments I have been reading regarding baby names, and am hoping you can all help me out here.
I am expecting in April and am first time mother. My partner and I have decided to not know the sex until the birth.
We have both nearly come to conclusions on these two names, but I would like any feed back about them:
GIRL: Hannah Lily Haysom - (Surname)
BOY: Oakley James Haysom
I like the idea of more classic old fashioned names that arn't very popular at the moment. (Although I know Hannah is quite popular, but I've loved it forever!!)
Other names we have thought about:
BOYS:
Reed
Oliver
Shea
GIRLS:
Noelle
Myra
Lavinia
Olivia
Any creative suggestions would be much appriciated:)

Hi there. Congratulations on your first baby! Here are my thoughts on your choices:
GIRL: Hannah Lily Haysom - (Surname)-I like Hannah Lily a lot, but I really don't care for Hannah w/your ln. Occasionally alliteration is okay, w/all the Hs & Ns it's too much. I'm sorry to be so negative! Lily Hannah Hayson would be beautiful, although Lily is also quite popular.
BOY: Oakley James Haysom-Ooh, Oakley is neat! Oakley James Hayson is really handsome, & unique. Nice work.
Other names we have thought about:
BOYS:
Reed-There's nothing wrong w/that, but it's just not my personal favourite.
Oliver-Darling! This is nice w/your ln, & isn't too popular.
Shea-I actually personally perfer this for a boy, but it's preceived feminine in the U.S. Are you from the U.S.? If not, then it might be okay. It doesn't flow that great w/your ln though.
GIRLS:
Noelle-That's nms, but it's fine. I love the nn possibility of Noley or Nellie though.
Myra-There's something schreechy about this.
Lavinia-That's nice, but I think it's a bit too much. Especially w/a non Romanian last name.
Olivia-I love this, but it is really common.

I like the names Hannah Noelle and James Reed

As for boys, I really like Reed, Oliver, and Shea. Oakley is just too trendy IMO though, I dont like it very much. All the other names sound great to me. Have you considered Gage, Emmett, Isaac, Breckin, or Colton for boys?
Congrats & Welcome to the board -
From your picks:
GIRL: Hannah Lily Haysom
