Girl "C" names

[lilmizmombassa.livejournal.com]

Hi Everyone,
I need some advice. I'm not pregnant and won't be for three or more years, but I am in a very serious relationship. One that will (hopefully) end in marriage. He and I enjoy discussing the names of our future children, and I'm turning to this community for advice.

My mom's name is Cecelia Marie. I'm Caitlin Marie. I've never liked either of our names (though I much prefer mine to hers) but my mom named me with the joy that she and I would have the same initials. I would like to do the same for my daughter one day.

So, what are your favorite "C" names for girls? I like Charlotte and Clara very much, and did like Cailee and Cree, but Cailee/Cree Marie is wayyyyy too rhyming for me. He likes Carmelena (his paternal grandmother's name) but I'm less than thrilled with it. He's very willing to compromise and seems to like Clara more than Charlotte.

What do you think of Clara Marie? Like it? Hate it? Also, any other "C" names you think would go well with Marie. The last name begins with an "M" and is eight letters and very Italian sounding, if that helps.

Thanks, guys, I appreciate any suggestions you have. :-)

my mother was colleen marie.

i was born carrie marie, and have always gotten complements on how pretty of a combination that is. when i was in college, i started going by caroline (never legally changed it) but i like that too (obviously)

i think clara marie or claire marie are both nice. :)
