babynamesthe husband and i have been tossing around our love of the name josie.
its our absolute number one girls name now. we both absolutely ADORE it. however, we cannot decide if we would like to just name our first girl josie, or something longer. i am normally all for that, and he feels that way too. i dont know, i am just feeling a bit off about it i guess because i am not particularly in love with any of the longer versions.
i do LOVE LOVE LOVE josephine, however middle name will be colleen. so obviously thats an issue.
i hate the name jocelyn.
recently, he brought up josette. i like josette. i have already agreed to josette. the husband loves it, and cosette was actually always on our list, so i already liked a name very similar. however, i am NOT in love with it.
kind of rambling (sorry) but has anyone here named their child a name they werent in love with, because they loved the nickname? did you grow to love it? or will i regret it enormously?
ETA: for those wondering, its not made up
