baby girl name needed!

[fadedsecrets.livejournal.com]

Brand new member! Hello :)

I'm having a bit of a baby name crisis. I'm due in March with our second little girl. Our first is Anna Reagan, and she goes by Reagan (not necessarily by choice, but we had picked those two names picked out years before she was conceived and Reagan Anna just didn't flow as well).

I've really gotten stuck on the name Noelle. I really like it (though I am still open for other suggestions). The thing is, I want it to be her first name if possible. I keep getting comments on how we named our oldest - "Why not make it a first name? Is that a Southern thing?" etc etc. It annoys me.

I can't match it up with anything! Help? My husband wants something more traditional to be paired with it, so not something like Noelle Evangeline or anything like that. It sounds like it would make a better middle name, but I'm really determined to find SOMETHING that works. If not, maybe I'll just give up and make it a middle name and either call her by that anyway, or find a first name we like better.

*EDIT: Thoughts on Noelle Elizabeth? So many people have suggested it (not just here), and Elizabeth is my husband's favorite name - Noelle is mine. It flows pretty well with our last name and it's getting more stuck in my mind, lol. What do you think?

Noelle Elizabeth is pretty, the double 'el' sound (NoELLE ELizabeth) just annoys me a little.
Other options:
Noelle Aimee
Noelle Rose
Noelle Ariane/a
Noelle Joan(ne)
Noelle Sophie
Noelle Adrienne
Noelle Charlotte

Ok, those aren't all classic, but I think they sound good with Noelle. Good luck finding a name you like! ;)
