Brenna Catherine- Love Catherine as a mn, but Brenna is nms
Caitlin Julia- Julia is beautiful, but Caitlin is too popular
Shannon Eileen- LOVE this combo. Shannon is a great name and underused. Got my vote by far
Kathleen (Kaley) Elizabeth- I love Kathleen Elizabeth, but am not sure why you put Kaley is there. Will you be calling her that? If so, I dislike it. Kaley is horribly trendy and Kathleen is so beautiful on its own. If you want to use a nn, I prefer Kat, Lena, or Katya.

Brenna is a great name! That was my best friends name in high school (which wasnt long ago) if your looking for unique my sister in laws name is Brennan- I think she is the only person I know with that name but i think it would also sound good.

I voted for Brenna by default. I LOVE Kathleen but despise the name Kaley. If you were always going to call her Kathleen that would have been my choice.

Ditto. I would even have voted for Kathleen if you were going to call her Kate or Kat. But Kaley is bad, and it doesn't do justice to the name Kathleen. Plus, I prefer Cathleen over Kathleen.

Hey guys-I love the name Kathleen all by itself too. I actually prefer the Cathleen spelling. But I can't use the nn Katie or Kate for a couple family reasons (already have a few, etc...), although Kat is cute. Kaley was just an idea I had. I like it as a nickname as opposed to a given name. Thanks for all replies! :)

You switched from Francesca Miriam! :-( Just kidding. Rachel Francesca is just as pretty...that would be a tough decision for me, to decide between those two!

Sorry for the threadjack!
