Having trouble with girl names...

[missmaxattax.livejournal.com]

Some of my favorite names:        (that I can and would use)
Gianna, Aubrey, Audrey, Grace/Gracie, Olivia, Leigh(or Lia), Natalie, Madelyn, Paige, Lynn, Madison, Ryan, Renee, Laina/Laine, Illeana, Elaina/Elaine, Charlotte, Emma.

underlined names = strictly middle name only.
Also - Lynn is my middle name.

Combinations I know I already love:
Gianna Leigh
Audrey Grace
Aubrey Grace
Audrey Olivia

I really would love to respect my grandmother with having her involved with the name a little. The only options I have for doing this right now are:
O'Neal
Sheree (I like Cherie or Sherie better- I just don't know how she feels about that. any other options or similar names?)
Kendra
Kendall

Here's the thing:
The combinations I love don't include anything that would make my grandmother happy. This is very important to me.. but I can't think of a way to include any of those names with any of the ones I like and make it to where I love it. The only exception to this has been Gianna Sheree. I've already told everyone that's the name I'm sure I'll use if I have a girl. However, I'm having second thoughts. I love the name and I'm even starting to like Sheree with it. I still feel like it's not "perfect" though. So, I would like suggestions with some of the I like with a name that would really make my grandmother happy. I'm open to two middle names if I see a combination I love. I'm also open to other suggestions with names not listed. And if it's any help.. I've tried to put the names I like in order of how much I like them. I know most are very popular and maybe even trendy.. but oh well.
Thanks in advance! =)

A great Sib-set today!

Well, no joke... i just came across a sib-set, all boys, twins and an older brother:

• Tee-Jay
• Tee-Jake (twin)
• Tee-James (twin)

How about lack of creativity there.  I don't mind TJ (like that as nn), and I also don't mind Jay, or Jake (Jacob) or James of course... but all paired together... ugh.

Also how about Kandysse (I think maybe its supposed to be prn like Candace??)  I love working from home so I can just hop over to this site and post the horrible things I'm coming across!

my list

<a href="http://www.babynames.com/namelist/9528856"><img src="http://www.babynames.com/V5/images/vote.gif" border="0" alt="VOTE on my Name List"></a>

Roisin (Roe-sheen)
Sarai (Suh-rye)
Jolene (Joe-leen)


and the spellings are NOT negotiable at this time. lol. ;-)

An inspired question...

[requiem-morrow.livejournal.com]

I read an article on cnn earlier about an Iraqi boy with cerebal palsey who was adopted by a US soldier. I won't lie, it made me cry. The little boy was found in the streets when he was a toddler and picked his own name- Ala'a, which means near to God. http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/12/23/iraqi.orphan.ap/index.html

So my random question is this: if you had to pick your own name, what would it be?

My husband just threw a name for the baby at me that I would have never expected from him.

Augustus John

A.J. for short

Baby is due in August - and John is his Dad's name.

I like Gus for a nn, but that's me.

The last name is Hazzard

WDYT??

Myself, I am liking it at the moment...
