[identity profile] morphinae.livejournal.com posting in [community profile] babynames
So after exactly a year of trying, we found out last night that we're finally going to have a baby! As soon as I found out, I had a strong feeling it's going to be a girl, and the overwhelming desire to change the middle name. I just feel like I HAVE to name her after my mother. We had previously decided on:

Charis Serena Anderson

But I want to call her after my Mother, whose name is Rebecca Jane. Except I can't decide which one to go with:

Charis Rebecca or
Charis Jane

Opinions? Right now I'm leaning towards Rebecca because I think she hates her middle name, But I adore Jane. I suppose 2 middle names are possible, Charis Jane Serena, or something, but I'm not really sure if I'm into the 2 middle names thing. I know I have PLENTY of time, but after a year of waiting, you get pretty excited. Of course, I'd love a boy just as much (which we'll name Julian *Jude for short* Calvin), just feel like this one is a girl. I also have one 6 year old son named Corbin Liam. Thanks!

Congratulations! I vote for Charis Jane. Because your last name is three syllables, I think it sounds better with a shorter middle name.

Trust you to post as soon as you found out! Congratulations.

I prefer Charis Jane, but that's because I don't like Rebecca at all.
Charis Jane Serena is lovely.

Congratulations!!!

I like Chariss Rebecca better, it just has a nice flow-y sound to it. But if you still wanted to use Serena, you could try Chariss Serena Jane.

Good luck :D

Charis Rebecca

I don't mind Charis Jane, but I don't like the name Jane, and I think Charis Serena sounds silly

and um, firefox is telling me I'm spelling "Rebecca" wrong, that it should be spelled with 2 b's. I have never seen it spelled with 2 b's. wth firefox.

They both sound good, but if Anderson is the last name, Jane sounds the best.

Charis Jane Anderson.

(p.s. I love the name Jane too!)

My vote goes to Charis Jane, I like Rebecca very much but I think Jane goes better with Charis.
And I really like Julian, nice choice!
