Updated name list

[pumpkindoodles.livejournal.com]

First, thanks to all who helped me come up with potential name combos when I posted my entry a few days ago. It gave me a lot to think about and I appreciate the help.

Last night I finally got my husband to discuss baby names with me. I have had my list of favorites for a while, but could never quite get a straight answer out of him about what his favorites might be. Although, to be fair, he may just realize that I have my heart set on certain names and not want to disappoint me.

Anyway, after some discussion, we actually came to an agreement on a boy's name (subject to change since we still have almost 6 months to decide!) But for now it feels good to at least have some idea.

Choosing a girl's name was trickier, since we already had the boy's middle name set. We have temporarily agreed on a first name, but need help with the middle name for a girl.



Thanks in advance for your opinions!

Thanks - not sure about the Disney thing. Doesn't really make a difference to me since it's not someone super famous anyhow.

Starla isn't my first choice by any means, but the husband likes it, so I have to be fair and at least consider it! It's the name of his favorite musician's daughter. Same goes for NEVADA, that was all him! Don't get me started on that one, haha.

Is the name going to be pronounced

CORE-in
co-RIN
co-REEN

?

co-RIN... or the way I envision it, more like "kuh-RIN"

Whoops, I was saying it CORE-rin.

Ah-ha...

Then my favorites are Corinne Sierra and Corinne Delilah.

The three-syllable names flow better than the two-syllable names you have here. I think that is because Starla, Violet, and Scarlet all have the accent on the first syllable. Since Corinne ends on an accented syllable, I find the names to be a bit jarring... Maybe a two-syllable name with an un-accented first syllable? Michelle, for example... or go to babynames.com and take a look at some two-syllable French names, since these tend to have that accent pattern...

Thumbs up!
