Well, I'm here again. I was here a little while back asking for name help. I thought we had finally decided but alas, I'm back again. This time it's all my fault. I can't seem to fall in love with any particular name. So, I'm back for support and more suggestions.

This is our first so there are no siblings names to match it to, although we have two dogs whose names are Cailee (pronounced Kaylee)and Paprika but we just call Rika. So anything that even sounds remotley close to those are out. The middle name is going to be Quinne, that was the name of our daughter who only lived 10 hours. Here are the names me and DH can agree on but I'm not 100% in love with:

Layla
Lydia
Melinda
Meredith
Miranda

Please help!! My c-section is in two weeks so we're seriously running out of time!

I like Lydia and Miranda. If it helps, my name is Melinda and I have always liked it.

Oh, I think it's nice to honor your daughter who passed with the middle name.

For this baby girl, I like Layla, Melinda and Miranda. I might also suggest Laine, Lauren, Laura, Marielle, Millicent and Melanie as similar choices.

AJ, enjoying life with C.

My pic is Melinda Quinne...I like every M name you list better than either Layla or Lydia. And to me, Melinda is pretty and unusual these days. Meredith is trendier, given it's Grey's Anatomy connection. And Miranda would be my 2nd choice but more people are using it than are using Melinda.

Hi, I'm new to this site and your little dilema caught my eye. I just wanted to help out and give my two cents. I think you should go with Meridith Quinne. I don't know what type of personality you guys have but this is the name that just kind of rolls together nicly to me.

If i could be of any more help just try and find me!
