I need help naming my baby!

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Ok, hubby and I have been tossing around names for this little one long enough. She is a girl, and she will probably born late December as my babies never come on time :P She already has two sisters Kaitlyn Georgia and Alannah Jane. With that in mind I have a list of 5 potential 1st names and 3 middle names but am open to suggestions.

First names
Madison
Abby/Abigail
Chelsea
Kimberly 
Delilah

Middle Names
Rose
Grace
Maree

The baby's name was originally going to be Madison Rose, but I don't know that I like how popular it is. Any hints/tips/opinions is greatly appreciated.
(Hubby has his heart set on Delilah Grace)

Not a fan of uneekness.

If you like Madison, but not how popular it is, what about Madeline? It's similar, but not AS popular. Or Addison, same deal.

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Not a fan of Addison, I like Madeline, but hubby doesn't because of the missing UK toddler.

[anapology.livejournal.com]

Delilah Grace is definitely my favourite out of the bunch.

I do think the rest are obcenely pouplar.

I'm in England, so perceptions might be different over here, but Chelsea and Kimberly are both rather tacky/trashy, Abigail is wayyyy too common and just ugly IMO, Madison is the new trendy and i'd stay as far away from it as possible.

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Thanks:)

[mamakimi.livejournal.com]

Sad lol

My name is Kimberly. lol

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

If it's any consellation I've never heard of anybody prior to this thinking Kimberly is trashy/tacky. Boring and common but not trashy:)

[anapology.livejournal.com]

oh.. no offence! It's just where i'm from perhaps. Also, all of the public toilet roll holders in the UK are made by a comany called Kimberly-Clark. It has that in massive writing all over them sooo.. i guess that might be why I don't love the name.. i think of toilets!

[scribblescrawl.livejournal.com]

Haha--Kimberly-Clark is a US company. It's located in Wisconsin (near where I'm from.). But I thought name perception were interesting when I was there--I heard several people say how "Tracey" was a ditzy name--and it's a name I never gave much thought before then. Coincidentally, I do have a somewhat ditzy English friend named Tracey :) But I definitely found English perceptions of names to be quite different from US.

I have to say, out of your list Delilah sticks out for me too, and Delilah Grace is really lovely.
But Delilah might be too close to Alannah, as Kimberly is too close to Kaitlyn.
So the one that would work well with the other two, imo, is Chelsea. I like Chelsea Rose, in that case.

With the exception of Madison (yeah, it is too popular and unsuited for girls), I like all your names, but I have to say, Maree looks kr8v for Marie, to me.

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Alannah goes by Ally, so I don't think they're going to be that close? Maree, I don't know if it's creative or not but it's right through our family, my sister, cousin, aunt, great grandma etc as a middle name and that's why it's on the list:)

[th3-unicorn.livejournal.com]

wow that's a lot of people :D
I've seen it around only once, I thought it was some 80's trend. Apparently not, then :P

If she goes by Ally, then I'd say Abby(Abigail) should be off the table

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

That was my argument with hubby:P (The Ally/Abby thing)

[djador.livejournal.com]

I think there are going to be a lot of babies coming up named Delilah, because of the song Hey There Delilah. Babies with teenage mothers that is. lol. But I do like the name, it's pretty.

Madison - It's a nice name, but like you said, very popular
Abby/Abigail - It's very cute. I really like it
Chelsea - I think it would go well with your other daughters names
Kimberly - It reminds me too much of the...early 90s?

Abigail Grace is my pick.

Also, someone mentioned Madeline, and I really love that.

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Yeah I know the song, that's how it grew on hubby but i've always loved it as I used to work with a Delilah and I just loved that it was pretty and rare.

Thanks for your choice:)

[kimber-leigh.livejournal.com]

Delilah Grace

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Thankyou:)

[moldycelery.livejournal.com]

If you name her Delilah, she will be stuck with whore/slut jokes for the rest of her life. Just saying.

All of the names you have are...pretty awful, tbh. I think Abigail is the nicest out of them, though I prefer Rose and Grace as first names as opposed to middle names.

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

I had a friend named Delilah I don't remember her getting any whore/slutty references. Hubby hates Rose and won't consider it as a first name. Thankyou for your input.

[tokossel.livejournal.com]

delilah is a great name. i dislike all of the others. :)

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Fair enough:) Thanks.

[freezemyazaleas.livejournal.com]

Your existing kids' names are so cute!

My vote is for Kimberly Grace! But I also like Chelsea, Abigail, and Madison.

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Lol you're just too easy to please you like everything:P Thanks for your vote.

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

I think Delilah sounds great with Grace, Rose, or Maree (given that Maree is a family name, and you're not just spelling it weirdly for fun).

I agree that Madison is way too popular and trendy. In twenty years, it's going to be one of those names that will immediately brand the kid as coming from a certain decade.

Abigail is nice, but very, very popular, I think even more popular than Madison.

I'm not a fan of Chelsea or Kimberley... they seem kind of 80s to me. But that could just be me.

So personally, I would go with Delilah, for sure.

[missinfinity.livejournal.com]

Delilah, definitely, with any of the mns, I also like Chelsea Rose and Chelsea Maree.

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Thankya:)

[missinfinity.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. And that is a v cute baby.

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

She may look cute, but she be very very evil =P

[tryyingtoevolve.livejournal.com]

I love Delilah and Abigail. Chelsea and Kimberly are both okay, although somewhat dated now. Madison is SO popular and I really don't like the name at all.

Delilah Grace is gorgeous! I love Delia a lot as a nickname, and Lilah is cute, too, so I don't hink it's too unique at all. It's not a name that would ever give her a hard time, you know? And it's also not one that would make her one of 5859595 in her class. That's definitely the one I'd go with.

Madison Rose is okay, but...blah. Very very very blah and trendy sounding.

I also really like Abigail Grace or Delilah Rose.

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

My friend Delilah went by Dee a lot, but I love Lilah as a nickname as I desperately wanted Layla Rose but hubby nixed it:P

[tryyingtoevolve.livejournal.com]

I think Lilah is really cute on a little girl, but with it being a nickname for Delilah, she's also got a lot of other possibilities if she were to outgrow it at 15 or 25 or 40, you know? I like that name a LOT. It's not one I'd ever use, but it's definitely a favorite of mine for that reason.

[stace25.livejournal.com]

I like both Delilah and Chelsea. I think you should go with Maree for a middle name, but I am big on middle names meaning something.
I love Delilah so much, I think I am going to put that on my list! lol

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

As long as your kid and my kid don't goto school together I'm ok with that:P

[solagirl.livejournal.com]

I feel like I am the only one but I vote for Chelsea Rose. I think it is lovely.

Madison and Abigail are a bit too popular or my tastes, but I prefer Abigail x1000 over Madsion. Kimberly is ok, it seems too similar to Kaitlyn to me. Delilah is pretty, but I don't care for it personally. Good luck!

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Thankyou:)

[xanya.livejournal.com]

Just to echo a few other comments, I really like Delilah Grace. Congratulations and good luck with the baby!

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Thankyou. I hope after all of this she doesn't come out and look nothing like a Delilah:)

[babykalina.livejournal.com]

I really like Abigail Grace. Kimberly Maree and Chelsea Maree are nice too.
Delilah makes me think of the white dog from Homeward Bound 2. =X heh

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Lol, I haven't seen the movie so can't make the connection:)

[arbus.livejournal.com]

another vote for delilah grace.

i dont really like any of the other names, sorry, but i LOVE this one!

best of luck! :)

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

It seems to be a pretty clear victory:) Thanks for your vote

[ifancylust.livejournal.com]

i like delilah grace..although grace seems to be such a filler middle name these days..same with rose. is maree pronounced like mary or marie?
i like chelsea as well. as for the others..they're just blah to me or way too popular.

[krissy-1982.livejournal.com]

Grace does seem to be a filler, I like Rose better as a middle name as my nan is Fuchsia (blah) and my MIL is Iris so a pretty flower name would be my fave I think.

It's like Marie, it was spelt wrong along the lines and they just preferred it that way.

[satunian.livejournal.com]

I rather dislike Madison and Abigail, Chelsea I'm Eh with...

I always liked Kimberly as a name, as well as Delilah...
I'd say Kimberly Rose, Delilah Rose or Delilah Maree... I find Grace boring as a name. The ones I suggested though, I actually really like! Hope you use one! :P

[dulce-angelita.livejournal.com]

chelsea grace would be really pretty

[waitingonsunday.livejournal.com]

Abigail Maree or Chelsea with any of the middle names are my favorite combinations from the list. I don't usually like the name Delilah, but Delilah Grace is pretty.
