Feb. 3rd, 2009 12:02 pmHello everyone! I'm new here. I'm having a baby in July, and just starting to think of some options for names. If I have a boy, his middle name will be Patrick [after my dad]. If I had a girl always wanted to give her the middle name 'Marie' [it's a family middle name], but I think it sounds kind of funny with my fiance's last name. Too many M's. Here's my list. Anyone have any suggestions on combos for the girls?
Girls
Eleanor
Georgia
Kennedy
Zoey
Frankie
Piper
Adelaide
Eliza
Regan
Penelope
Nora
Paige [Middle]
Hazel [Middle]
Boys
Nathaniel
Levi
Owen
Oliver
Silas
Gavin
Gordon
Elliot

I love all of your boys names.

Date: 2009-02-03 06:48 pm (UTC)As for combination suggestions, I like Eleanor Paige and Penelope Hazel.
Marie works pretty much with every name...too bad it looks like a filler name (it's a family name for me, too).

I looove the name Frankie for a girl, but as a nickname.
I also really like Oliver Patrick.

Zoey (I like it spelled Zoe better)
Eliza
Nora
Paige [Middle]
Hazel [Middle]
I think Marie sounds okay with any of those, the only combo of those I wouldn't do is Eliza Hazel because of the double Z's. I really dislike Adelaide, I just think it sounds ugly, sorry. Everyone seems to love it right now, but it feels like a trend to me, because 10 years ago most people would've disliked it, and I think a good name should sound pleasing no matter what year it occurs in.

Levi
Oliver
Gavin
Elliot
I like Owen too, but not with Patrick.

Oliver Patrick (LOVE!)
Nora Paige
Georgia Zoey
I also like Francesca, with the nn Frankie, as suggested above! I think if you were going to use it, you need a smaller second name... such as Francesca Zoey.
On the Marie thing... most people won't use her whole name (I assume) so the mmmmm thing might not affect her too much. Especially if she later gets married and changes her surname. If it is special to you, I'd still use it. Marie works well with most of your girl names!
