baby names

[smhstar82.livejournal.com]

My husband and I have a long surname (10 letters) so we need something elegant (and unfortunately for our unborn child, slightly long). I must confess a passion for long names.

If we have a boy:
Nicholas
Robert
James
Gavin


If we have a girl:
Nicola
Elise (short for Elisabeth)
Victoria
Lilliana (or Lillian/Lily)
Alessa (Alessandra)
Chloe (although living in the UK, we tend to get quite a few Chloe's here).

If we have a boy:
Nicholas - Always a good solid name!
Robert - know too many of them, not really fond of the name anymore
James - Kinda on the sort side if you were thinking of long, but I have always like the name.
Gavin - Really dislike it.


If we have a girl:
Nicola- I think this is really pretty, and nicer sounding then Nicole
Elise (short for Elisabeth) - It's ok
Victoria - Love this name, but hate the nicknames for it.. so it's
Lilliana (or Lillian/Lily) - Really like this and the nicknames
Alessa (Alessandra) - It's Ok
Chloe (although living in the UK, we tend to get quite a few Chloe's here). I like this name as well.
