Hello again.

[c0rby.livejournal.com]

This will be my last post, I swear! My husband and I are expecting our first baby in September, and I seriously hope parenting is easier than coming up with a name, haha. We have vetoed everything else in existence, but we cannot decide between these: [Poll #1742624]*Cora is an homage to my maiden name, Corbett.
*Our last name is Tomes.

I'd really appreciate thoughts/opinions/suggestions if you have any. Do you think Cora (or Norah, even) is too old-fashioned (especially with the middle name Grace)? Do you think since my last name is so short that some of these first names are too short? Do you think she'll get "Dora the Explorer" on the kindergarten playground...? Do they all suck? Halp.

Thanks!

I don't see it as a name that sounds too old. It definitely brings you back a bit and feels old-fashioned, but I never pictured an old person in my mind when I was saying it. But, we started liking it because of Cat Cora from Iron Chef, lol.
