Which combo do you like better?
| Mon, 01-22-2007 - 12:47pm |
Hey guys ... I'd appreciate your honesty on which of these name combinations you like better. DH and I love all of these combos equally, so it's tough to choose!
Lucie Belle
Lucie Bella
Hannah Mae
Thanks in advance!

Hannah Mae by a mile! While I love Lucy, the Lucie spelling looks too strange for my taste. Have you thought about Lucia Belle, nn Lucy?
Good luck!
Brooke
Lucie Belle
Lucie Bella
Hannah Mae
I prefer Lucie Belle.
Lucie Bella doesn't flow for me. I think the two names with 2 syllables each, with the emphasis on the first syllable for each name doesn't work.
Hannah Mae is very nice too. I can see why it's hard to decide.
As a side note, is there a reason you're spelling Lucy with an "ie"? I prefer Lucy unless you're aiming for a French feel.
You are right -- DH and I both agree that Lucia Belle is MUCH better in sound and the way it's written, however, I'm not a big fan of Lucia for personal reasons. I love the name Lucy spelled Lucie because it's the French way of spelling it, plus it kind of gets away from the "old lady" I picture as "Lucy." (but, I do like it spelled both ways)
Last night, DH and I were discussing names, and although we have liked Lucie Belle (the old way we were spelling it) we thought we'd toss a new name out there. Hannah was a name I'd always seen but never actually thought about it ... then I said the name last night and I was like, "move over, Lucie, I like Hannah!!!" I couldn't think of a middle name for Hannah and DH mentioned his grandma's middle name "Mae." And boom -- we were in love w/this name.
Thanks so much for your feedback! It is so appreciated! Keep 'em coming!!
Hi!
I figured since we were going with the middle name "Belle," we'd go with the French spelling of "Lucie" as well. That was only a recent thought, as we were originally spelling it "Lucy Belle."
Does anyone like the spelling of "Lucy Belle" better?
