A girls name!
| Mon, 11-27-2006 - 1:07am |
I have two kids and I am pregnant with my third.
My daughter's name is Hannah Olivia and my son's name is William Quinn..he goes by Quinn.
If my next child is a girl.. I would like to name her Hayden Elizabeth. My husband is not crazy about the name. What do you guys think?? Is it too masculine? I would really appreciate your opinion.
Thanks!

Ya know, I don't think I love it for you either.
Not only is it too masculine, but it falls right into the trendy -aden category- popular boys names such as Aidan, Caden, Hayden, Jaden, Brayden, etc. becoming unisex and now being popular on boys AND girls. It is all a bit too much.
Besides that, it doesn't go well with Hannah or Quinn at all.
A similar name to consider is Hadley.

Definitely masculine, especially since your dd does have a feminine name. If her name was Mason or something, Hayden would make more sense, but next to Hannah -- a classic, traditional girl name -- most will assume Hayden is all boy. Also, Hayden and Hannah are quite similar, both beginning with H and having prominent N sounds. I'd look for something else, especially since your dh doesn't like it anyway.

I really like Hayden... for a boy. And next to Hannah and William, I would assume Hayden was a boy. If your other kids had unisex names, then it might work a bit better -- Reese, Avery, and Hayden sound more like siblings, IMO.
Sorry I couldn't be more positive!

Hayden doesn't go with the other Children's names.
I would go with one of
Thanks for your opinion!!! I was going to spell it Haidyn to fem it up a bit. Maybe I will look at something more like Emma.

I agree with the other posts that Hayden is too masculine with Hannah. If you love the name why don't you just flip it - Elizabeth Hayden - that's a cool name!
Elizabeth has so many nn options that go great with Hannah:
Eliza
Libby
Elle
Ella
Ellie
Beth
Liz/Lizzie
I like Hannah, Quinn, and Libby, what a great sib set that would be!
