Hi and congratulations!

Would you share with us the names on your list, so we have a better idea of what your naming style is? That'd give us a better chance of suggesting names you might like! :)

[x-1986-x.livejournal.com]

sure i will edit my post :)

[alocin.livejournal.com]

Coby heads my boys list.

I love all your other names except Mackenzie is very trendy :)

[betsyfoofoo.livejournal.com]

I love Chloe but I think that is getting popular too.

[artfuldodger.livejournal.com]

I like "Ella", but not "Coby/Kobe". Abby and Hannah are really, really overused, in my opinion.

[pale-september.livejournal.com]

I really love Zoe the best out of your picks. I don't hear that name very often.

Since you like Ella, do you like Elsa? It's a form of Elizabeth. I love this name.

Brooke/Hannah/Amelia are very adorable names. Coby is a bit boyish, although I have met a few girls with this name. It was spelled "Cobie"

[muliebrity.livejournal.com]

Coby (kobe) - No, sounds like a boy's name.
brooke - Eh
chloe - I like
tess - I really like (although I like Tessa even better)
abby - I'd name her Abigail and just call her Abby, that way she has a more adult name when she needs it)
hannah - Super common right now, but still nice
amelia - I like
mackenzie - Common and bad. I hate surnames as first names.
alannah - Eh, sounds sort of stripper-y
ella - Cute
zoe

[muliebrity.livejournal.com]

Sorry, got cut off
I like Zoe :)

[simplymelodious.livejournal.com]

I think most of those names are very trendy.

I do like Amelia and Ella tho(my neice is Jenna-Ella, don't ask :p)

How about:
Maya
Mya
Mia
Leah
Audrey
Lila
Anna
Cara
Eva
Gia

[hannallegro.livejournal.com]

I like all of those except for Coby, Tess, and Alannah. Abby is great, and Ella is beautiful. Hannah is my name...and I like it. :) Good luck!

[peach-rose-girl.livejournal.com]

I like them all, but Mackenzie. It's very overused. I like Hannah and Amelia. Chloe is cute, but the person who has the name would have to be cute, too! I like Tess as a short form of Tessa, Theresa, or some other name. Abby or Abbie is cute. And I like Ella much better than Emma, which seems overused right now.

Thanks for sharing the list!

I don't agree with the poster who called your style trendy. The names you like *are* names that appear near the top of the popularity charts (or are climbing), but most the names here are good, strong, classic names that won't date or wear out their welcome. (Coby will probably remind people of the basketball player, so that'll probably date, and Mackenzie does fall into the trendy-surname camp. Other than that, everything here is good!)

Ava (or Eva, if you're feeling more classic), Eliza, Kira, Lily, Maeve, Maya (good suggestion from the other poster), Paige, Reese, Zara

i agree that coby is very boyish. colby is cute...although a wee bit more masculine than feminine IMHO.

i personally loooooooove chloe. it is pretty common, but eh so what? if you really love it, you should use it regardless.

brooke is very cute, don't care for tess or hannah. the others are just meh.

[peach-rose-girl.livejournal.com]

Oh, and you do have more of a classic naming style. Your names are traditional, but not old fashioned.

How about:

Eleanor
Carrie
Monica
Elena/Eleni
Flora
Erin
Dana
Ida
Willa
Erica
Ellie
Blaise
Brea
Brianna
Adele/Adella
Ashlyn/Aisling
Audrey
Hayley
Blythe
Dawn
Grace
Fern
Adair
Addie
Alison
Hope
Molly

Out of those I love Chloe and Zoe (though I would do Zoey). I have to say that Hannah, Mackenzie, and Abby are really popular right now, so if you want unique, that might not be the way to go. Congratulations!

[anapology.livejournal.com]

How on earth is Zoe pronounced without the long E sound? Like Zo? thats odd!

[castleofsand.livejournal.com]

I really like Tess, maybe even Tessa with the nickname Tess. Tessa Mackenzie sounds really nice. Good luck and let us know what you choose.

[scintillated.livejournal.com]

Yep, definitely DON'T like Mackenzie (too popular).

I like Alannah and Zoe (I knew someone once named Zoie).

[knightanika.livejournal.com]

I like Hannah and Ella. Zoe would be fine if you added a Y at the end to make it look more complete.

[kylees.livejournal.com]

Zoey looks stupid in my opinion Zoe looks much better... my fave is Amelia...

[dionysia.livejournal.com]

Most of your names are popular, though not trendy (Mackenzie and Coby excepted).

Coby is a boy's name.

Out of your list, I like:
Abby (or Abigail nn Abby)
Hannah
Amelia
Ella

Please spell the names correctly, and ignore those who tell you to spell Zoe with a Y.
