Girl name to go with sis, Gabrielle
| Sun, 01-09-2005 - 6:58pm |
We have a three and a half year old DD, named Gabrielle Grace. (I purposely chose it in 2001 because it was low on the top 100 list, but apparently a lot of other parents chose it too!) :) I don't know if we are having a boy or a girl, but I need a girl's name, preferably something with three syllables like Gabrielle. I love the letter G, but I am open. Right now, we are thinking about Genevieve. We don't do NN in our house. Gabrielle refuses to be called by a NN and that is cool with us. If you don't like our style, please just say NMS. Thanks in advance!
Warmly,
Lisa

Not 3 syllables, but I love Greta!!
Gabrielle is our next baby's name-love it too.
Gabrielle and Greta sounds so cute together.
Gabrielle Grace is just lovely! I'm 100% in favor of Genevieve--I actually hope to use it myself. I also like Gwendolyn.
I hate nicknames, too--especially the ones that people want to call little girls named Gabriella. If I were your daughter, I wouldn't answer to Gabbie, either. Maybe she'll teach Genevieve not to answer to Ginny, or Gwendolyn not to answer to Gwen or Gwennie. Ick!
Congratulations! Let us know what you choose.
I love Genevieve and Gwendolyn too :)
I took some time to search for some names 3 syllables or more -- hopefully you'll like one or two!

here are some other 3-syllables ones that I think would match up with Gabrielle (Genevieve is nms, mostly for being too traditional- older)
Belinda, Carina, Carissa, Delaney, Desiree, Dominique, Erica, Hilary, Jocelyn, Jillian, Johanna, Karissa, Kianna, Larisa or Larissa, Leanna or Liyonna, Mallory, Marissa, Mackenzie, Natasha, Natalie, Rhiannon, Sienna, Sierra, Sabrina, Samara.
good luck
