What do you think of these names?
| Sat, 07-02-2005 - 10:35am |
Hi Everyone: I've been trying to come up with names that I like, but that also have a meaning to my husband and me. We don't know if it's a boy or girl. Would you tell me what you think of the following combinations? Which ones do you like or dislike?
I appreciate your opinions!

Joella Marie R. (this name has parts of my husbands mom and grandma's name in them)
Anabella JoAnne R. (middle name is my mother-in-law who I'm close to)
and
Bennet Joseph R. (one t in the first name, middle name is my husbands middle name)
Bennett Aves R. (two t's in first, middle name is last name of grandfather)

I think Anabella Joanne is very very pretty (and I like Bella for a nickname.)
I am not too big on Bennett (2 t's for sure) for a first name - but if it's your favorite choice I like it with Joseph the best. (and Ben is cute for a nickname).
GL - You have nice names to work with!
Hi there, Manda. This is so refreshing to see these non-trendy & classic names. Good job! Here are my thoughts:
Joella Marie R. (this name has parts of my husbands mom and grandma's name in them)-This is pretty. Joella seems like someone who'd be a very strong & no nonsense girl or woman. I like the way it rolls off of your tounge as well.
Anabella JoAnne R. (middle name is my mother-in-law who I'm close to)-Anabella is gorgous. I like it a little more than Joella. Would you consider spelling it Annabella though? Anabella looks off balance, if you know what I mean. I do think that Annabella JoAnne is a bit Anne heavy, but it's not a big deal if it's a family name that is special to you.
and
Bennet Joseph R. (one t in the first name, middle name is my husbands middle name)-I love Bennett! Okay, I perfer the two Ts, but it's still a fantastic name. Wonderful choice.
Bennett Aves R. (two t's in first, middle name is last name of grandfather)-I like Bennett Joseph better, but Bennett Aves is fine.
Hope this helps!
Joella Marie R. (this name has parts of my husbands mom and grandma's name in them)
***Love Joella! Great choice!
Anabella JoAnne R. (middle name is my mother-in-law who I'm close to)
***Not a fan of Anabella or JoAnne (also, I don't think they work together stylistically), my vote goes to Joella Marie!
and
Bennet Joseph R. (one t in the first name, middle name is my husbands middle name)
Bennett Aves R. (two t's in first, middle name is last name of grandfather)
Bennett is OK, either mn is fine : )
Good luck!
Joella Marie R.- this is cute if you can avoid calling her "Ellie" which there are too many of around right now
Anabella JoAnne R. this is not a good idea to have the Ann sound in both names. too repetitive. Anabella is so cumbersome, too, too many sounds. I just don't like the name. but if you do want it and need a Jo name in the middle, how about Anabella Josette.
Bennet Joseph R. (one t in the first name, middle name is my husbands middle name)
Bennett Aves R. (two t's in first, middle name is last name of grandfather)
I like Bennett Joseph the best. it should have two Ts. I like Joseph much better than Aves
good luck
with Joella Marie and Bennett. Any suggestions for the middle name that
would sound well with Bennett? My husband dosen't want the baby to have
Benneett Joseph anymore because the initials B.J. which is an sexual act.
Go figure for a guy to point that out.
LOL now that I look at it, I see the BJ connection, but I certainly wouldn't have noticed had it not been pointed out. Definitely a guy thing. ;)
I love the name Bennett!
How about (with no J middle names)...
Bennett David
Bennett Michael
Bennett Alexander
Bennett Andrew
Bennett Leo
Bennett Malcolm
Bennett Luke
Bennett Phillip
Bennett Zachary
Bennett William
Bennett George
Bennett Nathan
Bennett Nathaniel
I'm going to print it out and share it with my husband. Thanks so much!
