newbie

Hi all. I'm new here. I'm getting ready to start ttc with the help of chlomid so it occured to me that I may need to think of multiple baby names just incase I have more than one. I have a boy and girl name picked out so far, but nothing extra. Here's what I'm sure of...

Lillian Rose (not sure how I want to spell Lillian)
Brodie Clinton

What do you guys think?

I like them both! I'm not too crazy about Rose (NMS), but I love Lillian and Brodie. Clinton is the name of a very cool friend I have, so that is a plus. :) Lillian is my favorite spelling of the name, too.

Lillian and Rose are both too flowery to have in one name, in my opinion. I like Lillian a lot though.

Welcome and good luck!

I like them both, but I think Brodie with the -ie looks feminine. Even though I prefer -ie to -y on girls' names, I dislike -ie on boys' names because it's a girly thing to me.

I really like the names themselves though!

[flaming--duck.livejournal.com]

You have a good point. Maybe spelled with a y then. Brody.

Lillian Rose is beautiful!!

[flaming--duck.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

Lillian Rose - pretty... but like another member said, it's a lot of flower for one name!

Brodie Clinton - I love Brodie, but Clinton isn't for me.

Welcome :)!

i like the names and Lillian spelled that way...

good luck with the chlomid!

That's my favourite spelling of Lillian, and I love that the nn is Lilly (my best friend is called Rose and her sister is Lillian/Lilly).

I don't really like Brodie but Clinton is good if you support the Clintons I guess.

Good luck with getting pregnant, and multiple births are the best!

[flaming--duck.livejournal.com]

lol. My hubby's middle name is Clinton...although I did like the Clintons too. Thanks for the well wishes. I am a little nervous about multiples but I'm sure it would be a blessing.

[xanya.livejournal.com]

Ha, well, either way, I do like the name Clinton! Speaking as a twin, there is seriously nothing in the world like... having a twin. Like, just having someone to go through everything with and who'll always understand you is so wonderful. My sister is definitely my best friend and always will be. Everyone should have a twin!

[flaming--duck.livejournal.com]

aww! That's so sweet. Thanks for sharing. :)

I like the girls' name but Brodie Clinton is... so American frat boy? I don't know.

How else would you spell Lillian? This is the correct spelling.

[flaming--duck.livejournal.com]

lol..yeah it is pretty frat boy. I was just toying around with the Lillian spelling but I'll probably stick with the traditional. The only other way I really liked it was Lillyan, but I dunno.

[ewaeva.livejournal.com]

If you spell it that way she'll have to correct people all her life (and people might mispronounce it too). That is a real pain, and I don't think it adds anything to the name. Lillian is great :)

[flaming--duck.livejournal.com]

Yeah I think so too...just testing the possibilities. Now I need to come up with some other names. Someone was mentioning Brodie looking feminine..that would be kind've cute girly name but I dunno.

[luliriisi.livejournal.com]

I love Lillian Rose! I was thinking of calling my own daughter that. But then I figured it was too flowery (like someone else pointed out in an above comment) so I came up with Evelyn Rose. And Lillian something.. haven't picked out a middle name for that yet. Although, if you keep it as Lillian Rose, a nickname could be Lil Rose...

[flaming--duck.livejournal.com]

I like it too and I don't think I will change it. It does seem very flowery and that was part of my reasoning behind it. It's not like she'll have to go around telling everyone here middle name is Rose. lol I love Evalyn, but that's my niece's name. My hubby pointed out that we can call her lil rose and I thought that was cute.

[mrsduryee.livejournal.com]

I am Rosalie and I used to be called Lil Rose.

[sara-t-05.livejournal.com]

I like Brodie, but it looks better spelled as Brody. And, it sounds too much like a nick name. Anything ending in -ie or -y just seems like a nickname and not a real name to me.
I do like Lillian. But, like someone said, it's too flowery with the rose part.

[sageharper.livejournal.com]

Those are nice
Good luck :)

[anapology.livejournal.com]

I dont particuarly like Lillian, but it sounds pretty wth rose and i do love lily. Lily Rose.. bit much maybe?

Brodie is female, to me at least.. Clinton reminds me of Bill... good or bad a i dont know but he would be B Clinton.

[elemmennope.livejournal.com]

The girl name is ok but as someone who grew up in the 80s, I can never hear Brody without thinking grody. I really don't care for it at all for that reason.

[sotypical42483.livejournal.com]

Lillian is really pretty. Rose is okay, sounds a bit fillery, though.
I really don't like Brodie. sounds like a nn.
