Girl Names

I am so desperate! I am having a girl and me and her father cannot agree with any names for our daughter who is due May 1st. I am torn between Ella which is my grandmother's first name or Joycelyn because Joyce is my mother's middle name. He on the other hand likes the name Mekaia or Jessica of which I am not too fond of. With my son I was able to rattle off names like no tomorrow, but I am at such a stand still for our daughter. Please help!

Well, I'm with you...I don't really like his choices either. I like both of your name suggestions though. Maybe you could try some type of variation of one of his names or agree to let him use one of his choices as the mn? Ella Mekaia sounds nice. Just don't get too frusterated...you'll come across a name you both love (or at least agree on).

Ella and Jocelyn are both very pretty but Ella is REALLY popular. I vote for Jocleyn Ella as a fn/mn combo to honor both family members.
