I just joined the community. I'm having a baby girl in March, and my husband and I are having a tough time agreeing on a name! So far, I am thinking of:

Meadow Lorraine

What do you guys think? We're keeping the name private from friends/family until she's born, and I want to bounce it off some people!

TIA!

i love the name meadow - that's what my friend jennifer named her daughter a few years back. not so fond of lorraine though... unless it's a family name?

Yes, it's a family name, for my Grandma that passed recently. I think it's pretty though.
I'm happy you like Meadow, though...I was beginning to think I was the only one! :)

If it's 'for' her great-grandmother, then I'd agree with you putting it as a middle name. I have my grandmother's name as a middle name for similar reasons - she died a few weeks before I was born. I liked having the connection with her, whilst still having my own name/ If that makes sense.

Meadow is pretty. Probably not a name I'd use, but that's all to the better!

i think using family names for middle names is very appropriate - it's a nice connection, very meaningful! i'm using my father's name for my son's middle name... too bad i haven't picked a first name yet. :)
