Hi, new here. 5 wks preg! :-)

How many Michelle's do you know and how old are they? Any under 3?

My other daughters are:

Juliane Valynn

Raleigh Jayne

Halina Beth (Hah-lee-nah)

I'd like to use a name that doesn't sound like the others but I'm very drawn to ...leigh names and ....ina and ....ana names!

I like names like Larissa but....

Well let's see, there's me - that's one. I know of 5 Michelles, all over 30. My youngest is 4 though, so I don't have much contact with kids younger than that.

I don't know any Michelles under the age of 3. I don't know any children of any age w/ that name & I have 3 school-aged sons (none in their classes).

I know 3 Michelles - 1 is 27, 1 is 19, and 1 is 7. I like the name a lot.

What's wrong with Larissa, if you like it? Or similar names, such as Marissa or Karissa.

How about Annabella? That has a similar "feminine" sound as "ina" or "ana" names. Other feminine names:

Victoria, Olivia, Aurelia, Audra, Celia, Pamela, Erica, Rebecca...

As alternatives to Michelle, I also like Danielle and Gabrielle.

Good luck!

I know tons of Michelles and love them all. The youngest one I know personaly is about 15 but I'd still use it if I could. Actually I already did...My 1st DD's middle name is Michelle.

That's funny about Rianna (Ree-anna), it's one I like but sounds too much like Halina. But pronouncing it Ree-enna is pretty. I think I'd spell it Rienna though.

Larissa is my friend's 1 yr old's name. So, I'm not so sure about it.

My dh doesn't like C or K names because our last name starts w/a C. I think he's strange! Because there are so many C and K names I like!

Keep posting about Michelle everyone and thanks!

I dont know any Michelle's under age 3-only in their 20's and 30's.

I think Michelle is too ordinary to go with your other names which are unique and beautiful! I like Marissa much better than Larissa.
