I love Blake Henry and Isaac Bailey. Nice choices.


For girls, all of your choices are nice. But Sophie is very popular.


Sophie Elise - nice, but the 'e' sounds run together a little.
Sophie ? - Claire, Paige, Brooke, Nicole, Noelle, Kate
Amelia Paige - my favorite of your girls choices
Amelie Elise - okay


Other suggestions:


Camille
Jillian
Erica
Rebecca
Bethany
Sabrina
Audrey

Thanks for the suggestions!


I agree that Sophie is really popular these days which is why i've been considering other names. I do really love the name Jillian and I agree that Amelia Paige is the best name if i don't go with Sophie. Ahhh decisions decisions!

I agree that Elise is a beautiful name - it's my sister's name ;-) Which is why I don't want it as a first name. Hehehe

yeah i definitely agree that Sophie is on the rise. I chose the name a couple years before I was even pregnant when I saw the movie The Davinci Code. I loved the name the second I heard it. I'm so sad now that It's so crazy popular :-( Oh well... I don't know the sex of my baby yet but i have a feeling it will be a boy any way ;-)

I'd nix Bailey - it's more used on girls now than boys


Isaac needs a more traditional middle - something like Isaac Michael, Isaac Benjamin, Isaac Thomas, Isaac William, Isaac James, Isaac Joseph


Blake Henry is OK, can't say I'm crazy for it


I'd use Sophia and call her Sophie - Sophie without the Sophia just doesn't grow up well, it's too nick-name sounding


Elise has too many of the same sounds as Sophie


how about Sophia Catherine, Sophia Corinne
