A few Names

[sleepy-tears7.livejournal.com]

Okay, so I am pregnant: Due November 9th.
We don't know the sex yet, so I'm gonna throw out some names for both sexes, let me know what you think

Gerilynn Marie
Danika
Cordelia
Wayan (Pronounced why-ann)



James Mitchell
Nicholas
Fredrick Mitchell


Let me know how you like each of them, which you like best/least, and any middle names you might think go with them.
Also, if you have any un-common but not out of this world names to suggest, I'd LOVE to hear them!

Thanks guys!!

I LOVE Cordelia, but I am not a fan of any of the other girls names. I like all the boys names though, especially Fredrick Mitchell.

[decembermalice.livejournal.com]

I prefer the spelling Danica, but I love that name!

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

Gerilynn Marie - Definitely don't like it, I'm not a fan of taking two names and smushing them together, and Marie is such a common middle name.
Danika - Not a fan
Cordelia - I like it a lot
Wayan (Pronounced why-ann) - I don't like it, and it would probably be impractical, because people wouldn't be able to spell it or pronounce it

James Mitchell - Really nice!
Nicholas - Love Nicholas
Fredrick Mitchell - Love it, but spelt Frederick

Oohhh I love all your suggestions. The only ones I don't like are Genevive and William, both for personal reasons. The rest are really good tho.

My husband picked Danika for our daughter. Now we just can't agree on a middle name. It's either going to be Danika Riley or Danika McKaila (not spelled like that though, I just can't remember how he wants to spell it.)

[freezemyazaleas.livejournal.com]

My vote goes for Danika Riley!

How are you pronouncing Danika?

[italianangel78.livejournal.com]

Dan i ka

Just like the race car driver.

[freezemyazaleas.livejournal.com]

I don't know of the race car driver, but does the end sound like the end of Jessica or Mika?

[duckduckcaboose.livejournal.com]

If she's going by the driver it'd be like the "ica" of Jessica.

[freezemyazaleas.livejournal.com]

Awesome.

[italianangel78.livejournal.com]

More like Jessica.

How are you pronouncing Danika?

I have a friend Danikka - she pronounces it duh-nee-kuh.

[blue-suspenders.livejournal.com]

Danika is the only one of your girl's name I like, but I can't say I love it.
I like all your first names for boys though!
I don't care for Mitchell.

[freezemyazaleas.livejournal.com]

I like Danica spelled this way, but only if it's pronounced DAN-ih-kuh (sounds like the end of Jessica), not duh-NEE-kuh.

[sleepy-tears7.livejournal.com]

No its not duh-Nee-kuh
I actually like Danica or Danicka. We haven't decided on the name, let alone the spelling yet lol

[arbus.livejournal.com]

the only names i like are james and nicholas.

[requiem-morrow.livejournal.com]

Cordelia is my fav for the girls; I love James Mitchell and Nicholas

[solagirl.livejournal.com]

I really like Cordelia and Fredrick Mitchell. James is nice too. Not a big fan of the other names.

Middles for Cordelia:
Cordelia Anne
Cordelia June
Cordelia Ruth
Cordelia Elise
Cordelia Manon
Cordelia Pearl

Good Luck!

[sleepy-tears7.livejournal.com]

I really really like Cordelia Manon. A LOT.

[solagirl.livejournal.com]

Cool!

[singhappy02.livejournal.com]

I think Wayan would just make it sound like the kid has a problem with it's "r"-s.

I do like Cordelia and Danica thought.

[duckduckcaboose.livejournal.com]

Gerilynn Marie- I love Marie, but Gerilynn doesn't thrill me.
Danika- Okay, not great.
Cordelia- Beautiful. I adore Cordelia.
Wayan- If I would you I would consider an alternate spelling. People will probably pronounce is "Way-an" like The Wayans Bros. What about "Whyenne" kinda like Cheyenne?



James Mitchell- I really like it although I don't like the name Mitchell for personal reasons.
Nicholas- Love this name.
Fredrick Mitchell- Love it though... the Mitchell thing.

[sleepy-tears7.livejournal.com]

I dislike Mitchell for personal reasons, however it happens to me my fiances middle name and his mothers maiden name, and of great importance to him. BARF. =[

[mooie-ziel.livejournal.com]

My niece's name is Danika and I love it. They call her Danny for short but I always call her Danika since I like the name so much. [DAN-i-ka]

[searlait.livejournal.com]

I really dislike all of the girls' names.

James is nice. I prefer Frederick.

[maeda.livejournal.com]

i'm not really feelin' this list, but i am fond of danika.

(i edit my comments too much.) actually, i DO like james, it's just too common to use for me. i like the sound of frederick mitchell.

[thedaytheystop.livejournal.com]

I don't like any of the girls names, but I really like Frederick Mitchell (with the second e) and James is nice too, but I prefer the Mitchell to go with Frederick.

Nicholas is nice but I have a personal thing against the name Nick, so I'm kinda 50-50 on that one.

I would definitely recommend going with the more recognized spellings -- i.e. Danica and Frederick -- if you're going to go with those names. :)
