1 week to go! need help w/ name!
| Wed, 05-10-2006 - 1:56am |
Next Tuesday I am having a c-section and I am still in a quandry over a name for my precious little girl! Her brothers name is Samuel Emil McLean Linde. We call him Sam.
We were all set on Caroline Estelle Linde but I am too afraid that people will call her Carolyn, my mom's name.
So now we have:(All of these names have a significance to me)
Cameron
Estelle (Stella)
Louise
What about Stella Cameron?
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Christine

Caroline- Love this. Its a beautiful classic and goes wonderfully next to Sam. I think people will get it right. If they don't, it will only take one time of you correcting them for them to get it right. Its only the people who know you and your mother who might think it will be Carolyn. To everyone else, Caroline is obviously Caroline.
Cameron- Doesn't go well with Samuel, prefer it on a boy
Estelle (Stella)- LOVE this... beautiful
Louise- I love this too
All of your choices are nice (except for Cameron IMO). I say take all three with you to the hospital and see what feels right.
stick with Caroline! It's gorgeous, and with any name you will have to correct some people! Good luck

I love Caroline, and I don't think she'll be called Carolyn at all. I like Caroline Louisa, Caroline Estelle, and Caroline Estella. Caroline Estella is probably my first choice.
Louisa Caroline would probably be my second choice, followed by Estella Caroline (nn Tess or Stella or Ella). I also like Louisa Christine or Estella Christine after you!
I love Caroline! My DH and I have a Samuel and Benjamin and are considering Caroline for our DD. I don't think it will be confused with Carolyn at all. I also really like the pp suggestion of Stella Louise. I think this flows very well, but doesn't go as well w/ your DSs name. The only name on your list that is nmsaa is Cameron (it seems very masculine to me).HTH!

I love the name Camryn....but I think Cam & Sam is a bit much.
