My husband and I are expecting our first born this April and have two great boys names selected but the two names I thought we likes for girls are all of a sudden not his favorites. I need suggestions. Below are the two I thought were going to work, maybe there is a way to still incorporate part of them to make a new name

Greta Louise
Louisa Lee

Other names I like are:
Helena
Jenna
Helene

but can't think of any others. Help!

The general consensus seems to be that other like Louisa and I still really like that the best for the fn, but dh doesn't seem to be too thrilled with it. Now he's throwing in options that are making me think he's been spending his free time in red light districts:) I am warming up to Jenna Louise and now am thinking of Jenna Rose. He likes both.

thought about Helena Rose or Louise but it is my grandmother's name and he's afraid his grandmothers will be offended if we name the baby after her and not them. any advice?

Hello.

I personally adore the name Louisa. Louisa Lee seems a bit redundent though. How about Louisa Jane?

I like Greta as well, but not as much. The others don't do anything for me.

Here are some suggestions that seem to fit your style-

Annabel, Anna, Bridget, Catherine, Daisy, Dora, Amelia, Genevieve, Harriett (nicknamed Hattie), Elena, Ivy, Jeanette (This is simalar to Jenna, but I think it's cuter), Mabel, Hazel, Phoebe, Petra, Polly, Rosalie, Violet, Willa.

Do you like any of those? Good luck to you!

I really like Jenna Louise or Jenna Camille. Louisa Claire sounds pretty, too.
