Pregnant with #3

Hi,
I'm Karen and I have Lillian Ariana 5yrs next month and Naomi Rochelle 3 yrs. It's been a few years since I've visited this group, but I used to chat all the time back when I was pregnant with my first two. We just found out that I'm due in January with #3. My youngest is sure it's a girl (she knew I was preg. before anyone else!), but I was wondering if anyone has any ideas for us.

My faves are Audrey, Edith, Simon and Ian. Does anyone see Ian as a problem since we often call Lillian by her full name? We like easy to pronounce, but somewhat less popular names (though I realize Lily/Lillian has skyrocketed and Ian is supposedly quite popular though we have not run into too many.) Also meaning is important.

Thanks. I look forward to any suggestions
Karen

I was just looking at your list, your daughters names are very pretty and from you choices I like Audrey better then Edith. But if you like Audrey here are some other suggestions:

Aubrey (my fav. with your other girls)
Audrina
Andrea

From your boys names I think Simon goes well with you little girls names. Do you have any mn you were thinking of using? This might help with the suggestions for first names.

Thanks.
I'll have to think about Aubrey. At this point I don't know for sure what mns we would use. Though for our girls we've had rather "feminine" names so probably something similiar for another girl.

Lillian and Naomi are beautiful. I love Audrey with them, however Edith seems very "old-lady" to me. Edie is a cute nn though. I love Simon for you, but I just don't like the sound of Lillian and Ian together. If you don't go with Simon, how about Simone for a girl as a fn or mn? It flows so well as a mn... Audrey Simone?
Other ideas:

Girls:
Karissa
Tabitha
Talia
Della
Dara
Corinne/Karina
Larissa
Taryn
*Edited to add Carys... that goes wonderfully!

Boys:
Seth** love this for you
Asher
Hunter
Adam
Gavin
Noah
Nolan
Jonas
Ross

Hey Karen! My name is Leila. I just found out that I am also expecting #3. I have had several miscarriages to get to this point, but I really feel like this one is going to fly. I have morning sickness and everything. I am also looking for names. My girls are named Courtney Rachel and Eleri Nichole. Names I love right now are Abigail and Lilly for a girl and Anderson, Owen, or Chase for a boy. My husband however REALLY wants to give a girl a boy name this time around. He loves Chandler (yes, for a girl), I am still trying to wrap my brain around that. Oh well! Hope to see you around here some more.

Thanks,
I like Corinne, Tabitha and Asher. I really love Seth too, but my cousin has already used that name.

Hi,
I like Owen too. "Boys" names for girls are nms. Maybe you'd like Avery?

ps I am very nauseous (sp?) also -- when are you due?
