Due in 3 weeks! Need help with girl name
| Wed, 08-03-2005 - 6:04pm |
DH and I can't seem to decide on a girl's name, if in fact this baby is a girl. Hoping to get some opinions/suggestions. Here are the current names at the top of our list (although it changes daily!).
Amia Veronica (after Veronica in the bible who wipes the face of Jesus)
Amia Marielle (Marielle is a combo of our mothers' names)
Amia Grace (no significance with Grace)
Marielle Grace
Mariella Grace
Our last name is long (similar to Templeton) and we already have one daughter, Carina Faith. We like girly, classical names that can stand on their own (no nicknames).
Looking forward to your thoughts and suggestions!

Hi there. I really like the name Carina; good job there! I can't quite figure out how to pronounce Amia though. Is it Uh-my-uh? If so, I suppose it's sort of pretty. I think me not being able to figure out how it is said is not a good sign though. Mariella, on the other hand, is lovely. Marielle seems like it really needs that A at the end. I like Mirielle though. Here are a few suggestions that you may like:
Adora
Aurora
Alexandria
Amity
Amelie
Brigetta-I'm not totally sure on how this is spelled. It's said Brig-eat-uh.
Calista
Callalily-This may not even be a real name, but it just sounds & looks so beautiful.
Cecily
Delilah-This sounds nice, but it may be diffacult to get past the biblical association.
Daniella
Delia
Eudora
Estella
Elora
Felicity
Francesca
Gabriella
Harmony
Ione-Eye-oh-knee.
Juliet
Josephina
Juliana
Julianna-I like them both, but I do think Juliana fits better w/the style of Carina for some reason.
Lorelei
Nicolet-I love this!
Nicoletta
Persephone-Per-sef-oh-knee
Rosaline
Rosalie
Tallulah
Tabitha
Talia
Theadora
Violetta
Yasmina
I hope that you see something that you like!
With Carina, I like Marielle or Mariella. They are both beautiful feminine names.
I agree with the previous poster on the pronunciation of Amia. I'm not familiar with that name.
I think Veronica is beautiful too.

If Amia is pronounced like Amaya then I would go with that one, but I would spell it either Amaya, or Amaia. I think the spelling with the y in it is easier to see how it is pronounced.
I also like Marielle, I think that one is beautiful! Mariella for some reason I dont like as much, just doesnt flow as well with Grace. Oh and I LOVE Grace as a middle name!!
I wanted to use Grace as a middle name but my sister wanted it for a first name, so I let her have it.

It's a GIRL!!
