I hate to keep saying this to you, but all these names (excluding Trinity, which I've commented on before) sound made-up. I understand that you like different names, but do you like any names that aren't contrived? I'm really, really not being rude, I promise. I'm just trying to understand your taste. I am, by the way, in favor of not naming her Trinity. I know the name must start with a T...are you open to other suggestions? For instance, would you consider Tatyana or Tatiana instead of Tayana? I just ask because you said you were undecided.
Best of luck, and just ignore the post if you've already decided. Congratulations on your new little one...and your daughter is just adorable!
I do appreciate all feedback... and that's why I put together this poll. I don't think you're being rude, and I appreciate your honestly.
My DH and I had decided on Trinity if we were to have another little girl, before our daughter, Tiara, was born... but now I'm just starting to get a little bit undecided about how much "in love" I am with that name. Plus my MIL and mom both said that they're not that fond of Trinity. We know a little girl named Tasia (DH's friends daughter) and I've always really liked it. Tasya is Slavic for "resurrection"... it was on the baby name website. (babynames.com) and Tasia had an unknown origin and meaning, so I'm sure that somebody made that up at some point, but it's on the babynamesworld.com that I browse around on every once in a while. I do like Tatiana, but I'm not in love with it.
I'm so glad you took the post in the spirit that was intended. And, I understand your conundrum. T is a hard letter, because of all the Tammies, Tiffanys and Tonyas. But, here are a few names from my baby name book that maybe your book may not have. Let me know which ones you like... And, now that I've said it aloud a few times, I don't really mind Tasia, except that it sounds more like a nickname for Anastasia rather than a name in and of itself...does that make sense?
I hope you fall in love with one of these so that the rest of your pregnancy can be stress-free! Most of these are from my baby book, but a few are just names that popped into my head or that I remembered from books I've read.
Tamsin or Tamsyn
Tanaya (I've never heard of this name before, but it reminded me of Tayana, which you liked, and the name means "child of mine" in Hindi. It may be just perfect for you!)
Tanith (the Carthaginian goddess of Love)
Tara
Tate/Tayte/Taite (means cheerful)
Tatum
Tawny
Tegan (means "beautiful person")
Tessa (or Tess)
Thyra
Tierney
Tiponya (means "great horned owl"--threw that one it just for a laugh!) :-)
Tyne
Tirion (Welsh for kind or gentle--great meaning!)
Trina/Trena/Treena
Twyla (This means "woven of double thread." I love the name, but I especially love the meaning, because your daughter is made from both you and your husband.)
Good Luck!

Hi,
I like Tasia, Tayana, or Trinity...but I think Trinity is growing pretty quickly in popularity, so while it sounds unique to me now, I wonder if she will end up being one a few Trinity's in school?
Other T names...
Talisa
Talia / Tahlia(pronounced tall-ia)
Tamira
Tablita (am throwing it in only because I think it's interesting that the meaning is Tiara, your other daughter's name)
Tacita
Tailynn
Taja
Talasi
Talisa
Tallulah
Tamsyn
Tangia
Tavita
Temira
Tiana (too close to Tiara, but it means princess in Greek, and it is such an adorable name!!)
Tosca
Tresa/Tressa
I got all these names off babynamesworld.com, which lists meaning & origin as well.
Here are some from babynames.com
Talisa
Talisha
Talleen
Tully (Washington people would only think of coffee when we hear this!)
Tariana (too close to Tiara, but adorable!)
Tavia
Hope this helps & good luck!!
I've heard the names Tasia and Tayana (of course, not sure of the spelling on either of these) plenty of times before. They don't seem, to me, made up at all.
I just can't get behind the name Trinity because it seems like I never heard it before the Matrix came out.
I voted for Tasia..."Tasia and Tiara" sounds fine, althought I'm not too sure about "Tiara and Tasia." To tell you the truth, "Tiara and Trinity" sounds the best to me...maybe I'll go back and change my vote :-)

I voted for Trinity but now I wish I didn't - I don't care for it as much...
Do you like Tatum? or Tamara? (Tam-uh-ruh)
I think Taysia, Tasia is cute too... a little close to your other DD though...
GL~
I really wasn't too crazy about any of the choices. I like your 3-year-old's name, Tiara, and it seems as though you want another T.
here are some other suggestions: Teneisha, Tamira, Tamika, Taleen, Torri, Tasha, Tonya, Tiffany, Taliya (pronounced the ending like "Leah").
good luck.
Thanks everybody! However, I think I'm just getting more and more confused now. I'm really hoping that at our ultrasound in 14 days that we find that this is a boy since that name is set in stone! This girl name stuff is driving me crazy.
I really liked some of your suggestions though... like Tanaya...
Another poster suggested Tamsin/Tamsyn and Tyne.
