I'm not crazy about the first and last names ending in "on". Sounds a little awkward to my ear. I prefer Brooke Carrington Anderson, by a lot.

It goes well with the siblings, and I prefer it over your previous choices of McKinley/Mackenzie.

But Carrington Anderson is quite long when paired with the last name and doesn't flow well. Have you considered Carys/Caris?

Carys Brooke Anderson is lovely.

I also think Harper or Hadley would be a great choice, and would balance out the 'H' and 'C' sounds of the sibling names.

I do like this better than the previous options for you, but agree with the pp about CarringTON AnderSON not being the best. It also seems a bit too matchy with Carter, both beginning with Car- and ending with the prominant T sounds in the final syllable (-ton/ter).

i know my dh is not so set on it either. i give up. i'm just tired of thinking about it.i think it was leslie who suggested it-well karrington-so i jumped on it.plus,i know sooooooooo many people think we have named our girls after presidents etc...there are just are not enough names in this world that are any good in my opinion. what i am looking for is a surname-old english-can be used for either-i guess no 'c', 'k',or even 'h'....that does not end in 'er'.....that has not a thing to do with politics....since that seems to be so many peoples pet naming peeves-who'da thunk? okay so toss carrington out the window too. i'll keep looking.

Awww...I know it's hard (it took us our whole pregnancy and two days after to name our son.) Here are a few more ideas:

Shea
Chauncey
Frasier
Larkin
Brennan

Sloane Brooke Anderson
Mason Brooke Anderson
Logan Brooke Anderson

good luck!
