Seeking Opinions on Girls Names
| Thu, 01-18-2007 - 1:34pm |
I despertly needs some of your opinions on my list of names. DH and I are having a terrible time agreeing on a name, but this list below represents names that we "somewhat" agree could be options (with a couple that only I like). I'm due in April and DH says we have plenty of time, but I at least would like to get it narrowed down to 3 soon. With our DS, we didn't decide for sure until he was born but we had a list of 3 names and when we was born we just knew he was a Zachary. Our last name is fairly long with 3 syllables and begins with an H.
Here's my list:
Alyssa
Elise
Hannah
Lily
Megan
Sarah
Sophie
Sydney
Zoe (does Zach and Zoe sound cheesy together as siblings?)
Others???
Thanks so much!!

I know quite a few families with siblings named Zachary and Megan.
I love the name Lily.

On you list I LOVE the name Megan (my niece is Maegan and she is sooo cute - it fits her well. Megan has cute nn's too.)
I also like Hannah & Lily
Zack and Zoe is close but would work ok
I also like these names with Zachary
Madelyn, Emily, Alexis, Brooke, Nicole, Ashley, Chelsea, Lindsay, Ashlyn, Kelsey, Eden, Elizabeth, Katelyn, Savannah, Kaelyn, Brinley, Kylie, Courtney, Bethany & Alison
I would stay away from Zoe, since you have a Zach, but I really liked Sophie, Megan (I could be prejudiced, that's my name), and Sydney.
Some possible combinations:
Sophie Elise
Sophie May
Sydney Grace
Megan Rochelle
also, consider spelling Sophie with an f... as Sofie. Am I the only one who thinks that's adorable?
good luck,
Megan
I'm Megan Rochelle, and my sisters are:
Kelsey Janeen,
Allison Erin,
Bethany Rachel,
Emily Noelle
...suffice to say that I think you've got pretty good taste! :)
I think Zachary and Zoe would be fine as siblings - I like Zoe the best of your list anyway
my next choice would be Alyssa and my third would be Elise
Hannah wouldn't go well with an H last name in my opinion - I still see Sydney as unisex even though only girls are using it lately, Sarah is way too plain/common/old, Megan is kinda dated to the 80s (but still going strong somewhat I realize, which makes it seem kind boring to me), Lily I just never liked and it's gotten way too popular (to me it's like yuppie-popular which makes it worse) and Sophie is a nickname, Sophia would be OK, I still like Zoe, Alyssa or Elise best with Zachary
good luck
My niece is Maegan Elizabeth - I just love the name it will always be one of my favs!
My two cents:
Alyssa - too common, and possibly a little dated?
Elise - I like this one
Hannah - too common
Lily - common, but I love this name
Megan - not bad, but not my fave
Sarah - I'm partial to this name ;) - it's a classic, but maybe too common
Sophie
With a long last name, I would pick a short first name...
That is 2 syllable first name, one syllable middle name.
I would not use Hannah because of the H.
I would not use Zoe to go with Zach.
Alyssa is a longer name.
My FAVs in your list are:
Lily
Elise
