Advice needed: We like too many names!!

DH and I have completely stalled talking about girls names because we like too many! Here are our current faves, can any of them be put together for a first and middle name? Do you absolutely love or hate any of them??

Harper
Chloe
Isabel/Isabella
Charlotte
Natalie/Natalia
Cecilia
Penelope
Claire


There are even more! Some others I like:

Ines
Imogen
Florence
Camilla
Siena
Aurelia

How are we ever going to decide?

PS - our last name starts with a "CA" sound. I was hoping to use Bianca as a middle name because it is a derivative of my maiden name, but not sure how I like the Ca - Ca sound together.

Help!! TIA!

Cecilia - Wouldn't have thought of this and it's so pretty!
Claire - So beautiful and classy!


There are even more! Some others I like:

Florence - I wouldn't have thought of this - but love it!

You have a lot of names I love -

I love Camilla, Penelope, Sienna (with 2 n's), Charlotte, Natalia & Aurelia the best.

I like Isabella but it is sooo popular so I personally would avoid it.

The only name I really dislike is Harper. Soooooo trendy.

I have a Charlotte so I'm partial to that name. Penelope was also in our list. I love Chloe too.

Florence is nice- very unique. Funny that you mentioned the name Bianca because that's the name i was thinking of using for our daughter. I also like Aurelia but being that i only know native italians with that name, people may have a hard time pronouncing it correctly.

Re: Advice needed: We like too many names!!

Thanks, all! I just don't know how to pick only one! And none of them seem to work well together . . . so hard.

For the PP who asked, Aurelia is, I think, pronounced O-Rail-e-a

Maybe that one is too hard, but it's pretty!

I'm going to look back through all the responses now, thanks for the input!

I'd just pick one with your husband. Give it a few days or a week and see if you still like it. If not, change to another name!

I know! DH has already picked Isabel Bianca and we both kind of already call her Izzy, lol. I just like a lot of the other names too so I'm torn.

It sounds like you both have your choice then!

crashing, its not what everyone else will like, which one DO YOU love the most. Which one comes to your mind the most, which one do you fantasy saying when you see your daughter in front of you?

if that doesnt work, start eliminating the ones you like the least, work from that point.

Re: Advice needed: We like too many names!!

Charlotte is my fav! Not just because that's what we are naming one of our girls! Chat Icon
The other will be Sophia but Penelope came in a close second for one of our twins.
I love Harper too but DH wasn't on board with that one.
