I am 23 weeks pg and am anxious to start calling this little girl by name. With my DS, we started calling him by name as soon as we found out he was a he. DH and I just can't seem to come up with a name that we both LOVE.
I would love some suggestions at this point. I would love to find a name that has a "formal" version and a cute nickname. We won't necessarily call her by the nickname, but I want her to have options as she grows up (I didn't since my name is Lisa) I want a name that would fit well has a Supreme Court Justice or a cute little girl...kwim?
Here is an idea of what my and DH style is:
him:
Samantha
Shannon
Danielle (nn Dani)
me:
Annalise (or any spelling variation)
Annalena (pronounced ah-nah-lay-nah, nn Lainie)
Rebecca (nn Becca)
Delaney (nn Laney)
Amelia (any nn suggestions?)
DS's name is Jackson Taylor. Her middle name will be a family name--either Anne, Maurine or Lee(Leigh). Our last name is Gensel (rhymes with pencil) with a hard G.
Thanks for any input and/or suggestions.

THanks for the replies!
I think that DH might have been swayed by Amelia. He is a HUGE aviation buff, so the Amelia Earhart connection doesn't hurt. Plus... he is also a HUGE soccer fan, so the nickname Mia has a great connection to Mia Hamm.
Donalyn... thanks for the suggestion of Leighanne (or Leeanne) for a middle name. It is quickly becoming one of my favorite choices.
