Suggestions

[erikalyn.livejournal.com]

You guys are probably all sick of me by now but I'm 7 days away from my due date and starting to freak out about the whole name thing.

I'm looking for some new name suggestions to add to my very small list of possibilities. I like Latin (as in Spanish/Italian, etc) esque sounding names but nothing too obvious, as my last name [Trenholm] is very obviously not. My current sad little pathetic list is as follows:

Evelina
Ophelia
Stella
Tia

I've perused Nymbler on many occasions but I'm hoping that maybe something someone suggests here will jump out at me more when it's not one of hundreds.

I'm 2 days away and we still can't decide, I feel your pain. I'm hoping once he pops out I'll just KNOW for sure what his name should be. Plausible, right? RIGHT?! :P For what it's worth, Stella is still my absolute fav :)

Edit: Also, what about Scarlett?

[erikalyn.livejournal.com]

I'm definitely not "deciding" on anything until she is here, I just don't want to look at her and draw a blank! I want to have a list along with my baby name book at the hospital with me just in case haha

I really like the name Scarlett, however there's a good chance this child will end up having red hair (I have auburn hair naturally and her father is brunette but has red in his facial hair) so I just wonder if that would be too much or lead to teasing later on.

What happened to Stella? :O do I understand the first name is being ri-discussed as well?

[erikalyn.livejournal.com]

Stella is still on the table, I just want to have a nice little list in order in case she doesn't "look" like a Stella when I see her.

[th3-unicorn.livejournal.com]

Ohh I see :)) good point!
Stella is my favorite among those, anyway!

I like them all except Ophelia, which would just be a depressing name to name a child. Some other ideas are Amanda, Isabella, Christina, Eva, Julia, Antonia and Silvia.

I like the suggestions above, but IMO Ophelia has too much baggage. Really, Hamlet is the only point of reference for the name, and it is quite negative.

Tia is my favorite from your list.
