My friend is having a baby and I want to know what you think of when you hear this name: Lorelai Jane.


Personally, I was definitely never a fan but all I think of when I think of Lorelai is Gilmore Girls. I know it was a name before the show, but maybe because we're both in our early twenties I feel like theres no way she didnt get the name from the show.

I still think its a pretty name, or I think it would be if I didnt just think of the show.
and I definitely think Jane is a nice middle name.

My husband and I are trying to have a baby and we've been talking about names a lot.

I've had the name Lucy picked out for a girl since I was little. To my surprise my husband LOVES it.

It seems Lucy is becoming more trendy these days though. What do you think?

For middle names we were thinking Lucy Olivia (very trendy I know, but it sounds nice), Lucy Amelia, Lucy Emmeline. Do you have any other ideas for middle names for Lucy?

baby name frustration.

So the boyfriend pretty much shot down most of my name ideas (Anna, Elizabeth, Catherine, Ivy, Violet -- all 'too lame' according to him). I told him the one thing about the name that is a MUST for me, is Marie as the middle name (my mother's middle name). He agreed to it, so long as she could have two middle names (since his son has two middle names). I agreed. But he wants the second middle name to be one of his mother's names. That's all fine and dandy except her name is REXANNA LYNN. Am I a bitch for saying that these names are both terrible? Well, Lynn isn't bad, as far as middle names go, but if we're already using Marie (a typical 'filler' middle name), to pair it with Lynn would be like double filler, ya know? Even though it's not, really, but it will sound super bland.

I feel like I've compromised enough with giving up my favorite names AND agreeing to a second middle name. I want to just stand my ground and deny using his mother's name. Not that I don't love his mother, I just hate her names. I said I'd be fine using Anna or Anne, which of course, are lame to him. I'm not sure what else to do.

We did agree on one first name, which is Amelia (his suggestion, even though I liked it anyway). Leaps and bounds better than 'Petunia" which he first suggested. I don't love it, but I think it could definitely grow on me.

Amelia Lynn Marie. So boring I could cry.

So then I got to thinking that I could combine Marie & Lynn = Marilyn. Yes, no? I don't love it, but it's better than Lynn Marie. I'd put the second middle name between Amelia and Marilyn because they sound kind of similar.

So Amelia ______ Marilyn.

Any suggestions for the blank to take back to the boyfriend? He seems to like classic names that are unusual, if that makes sense. Nothing popular.

I've been going through my name list in behindthename.com and I thought it might be fun to post my most serious favorite name list here. There are names from many sources in the list, mostly Finnish or Nordic with English etc. names thrown in too.

Absolute favorites are bolded :>)

( the names )

WDYT about the names? Some of the Finnish names may sound a bit weird but they are all legit names and some probably a bit old fashioned, too. I'd really appreciate suggestions for boys names that might fit in with my taste because as you can see the boys names list is a bit short :>)
