After much debate/discussion/feedback, hubby and I have decided on Nina Carys Anderson for our daugher-to-be. My hubby loves Carys, but finally agreed that it sounds like Cara Sanderson when said aloud. We decided it would not be as problematic as a middle name. We also think that Nina Anderson works and wouldn't be mistaken for something else even though we have two "a" sounds running into each other. Genevieve ended up as a close third, but hubby really wanted to call her Genevieve instead of Evie/Eve, and I would feel weird introducing us as "Hi, I'm Jen (short for Jennifer) and this is Genevieve." It was a little to cutesy for me.

So any last opinions on Nina Carys Anderson/Nina Anderson? What do you think of when you hear the name? I would appreciate any feedback!

Thanks so much,
Jen

Due Date: April 19th! (nothing like cutting it close to the wire! :) )

I like it very much! Nina Carys Anderson is a lovely name - feminine but not frilly or cutesy, at all. Best wishes.

I like it! Nina is a known but not overused name, and I love Carys. Besides in the mn spot, it doesn't get said together all that much. I think you're more likely to yell, "Nina Carys!" than the whole name.

Gorgeous! I absolutely love both Nina and Carys, and I think it's a fabulous combination that works perfectly with your last name. Wonderful. Make sure to come back after she's born and post a birth announcement -- good luck!
