first post; girl names

[britnibear.livejournal.com]

This is my first post in here, I've just been lurking ideas for the past few weeks or so. I'm 22 weeks 5 days, and my boyfriend and I just found out we are having a little girl! I'm 18 and he is 19 and when we were in highschool and first dating, we had this conversation about what we would name our baby if we ever had one and I came up with the name November (or Novie, or some cute nickname related) for a girl. It's the month we started dating and having her name actually mean something to us is important to me.

Now that we know she is a girl, this name will not leave my head. Any name that we think of (even the ones I truly like) just don't seem right.


What do you guys think? Help me !!

If you don't like the name, what are ways you think we could incorporate ourselves into the name. And what are your top girl names?




Oh & her last name will be Peck. November Peck (november kiss?? like how cute?!? haha).

I like the name in theory, but I don't like it with the last name. A November kiss is cute on an actress or a character in the movie, but it would get old quickly. I would definitely relegate it to a middle name just because of the last name. Same idea goes for cutesy middle names if you go with November as a first name. I have to say, I don't like November Rose. First of all, the R's at the end of November and the end of Rose blur together. Second, it sounds like a seed packet, not a child's name. I would avoid any sort of noun or adjective middle name with a first name like November. November Rose Peck sounds like a unit of measurement for a rose's yield. November Katherine, November Amelia, November Eleanor, November Jane, or November Miranda sound nice.

Also, I must admit that I can't stand using the parent's names in a child's name for first names. My personal plan is to use my fiance's middle name as my first son's middle name. I think a child should have a first name that's all theirs, or belonging to a deceased or slightly distant relative. If you strongly want your names in there, definitely only use them as middle names only!

My favorite girl names are:

Daphne
Eleanor
Charlotte
Avery
Amelia
Ivy
Ruby
Louisa
Lucinda
Elizabeth
Scarlett
Harper
Georgia
Katherine
Ophelia
Quinn
Willow
Naomi
Verity
Briallen
Danica
Stella
Regina
Annika

Scarlett and Naomi were two of my picks but he doesn't like them ;[ Ugh. Naming is soooo hard.
