I'd keep Serena and Keira; those two are your best names and the prettiest. Teagan, IMO, is absolutely hideous and trendy in a bad way (versus Isabella or Sophia, which are trendy in good ways). Haley is played, and the name doesn't have good connotations: every Haley/Hailey I have met has been a ditz. =[ Marie is boring. Erowin is lovely.

I suggest:

Lucy
Jane
Vanessa
Anna
Ava
Arianna
Mary (a nice alternative to Marie, and oddly unique for all of its ordinary-ness)
Susanna
Leah
Naomi
Camilla
Claire
Alice
Julia
Elyse/Elise
Avery
Nora
Alexandra
Lydia
Vivian
Chloe

I know Marie is boring, but it's my grandmother's name, my mother's middle, and my middle. That's the only reason I'd like to use it.

Teagan is another one that we like the meaning of. Sophia is my favorite, but DH doesn't want there to be 987 other Sophias in her classes, so it got vetoed.

I like Arianna, Camilla, Avery, and Chloe. I also love Naomi and Norah (my all-time fave), but our last name begins with N so they don't work as well =]

Serena Marie
Keira Marie
Audrey Keira
Haley Eirwen
Teagan Eirwen

Not sure about the last two, but I like the first couple (obviously one is flipfloped from what you wanted...)

Marie is a fairly easy name to pair up; it'd work with all of your firsts, or even as a first.
Audrey is not as easy, but still not that difficult to pair up.
It's Eirwen you'll have some trouble with. Either with the sound or flow, and of course, ultimatly dealing with the strange looks. I like meanings of names, and I like unusual names. I'm only naming characters right now, and not actual kids so I don't have to deal with this yet, heh. But so far it looks like you're doing alright with names. :)

What about Sophia as a middle?

i think keira audrey has a nice ring to it.

True! If it's a family name that means a lot, then by any means use it! I just think Mary would have that same effect: it sounds extremely similar, but it's not as cliche as Marie.

If you don't want a gazillion Sophias, then Teagan isn't any better:

Sorry. :(

Ah, alliteration (sp?) can be a drag. My first and middle names both start with 'S', but I believe I'm a rare case, lol.

Combine the number of births from the past four or five years for an accurate depiction. Sophia may be trendy, but at least it's a classic that's been around for centuries. Teagan is only a trendy name that will be out of style by the time your daughter is five.

Teagan is the least favorite of the four and I highly doubt we'd end up using it anyway. I'd rather have Sophia!

Marie is the best name on your list, and it is never boring as a first name! As a middle, well....it just becomes filler imo. But I think Marie Sophia is absolutely gorgeous and really classy.

[sexxie-dork.livejournal.com]

We're using Marie as a middle because it's my grandmother's first (she's a Marie Antoinette), my mother's middle, and my middle.
