Help! We haven't been able to come up with a great name for our daughter who will be born in February. Our son was nameless in the hospital for 24 hours, and I'd like to go a little more prepared this time! His name is Tyler Gregory. I'd like to avoid names that start with H or end in N (last name). Suggestions?

sib set: I joked we're naming our daughter Taylor. hehehe! But no, not interested in actually doing a sib set like that ;o)

Heh my younger sister's name is Augusta, a family name. I wouldn't say she hates it, but she definitely stands out, and goes by Gussie. But her middle name is Randolph (also family name), so I can understand why she's not fond of it.

Especially since the rest of us are ordinary, mostly Bibles names: Sarah, David, Rebecca (me), Stephen, etc. Then after her we have Jenny and Eric, I guess they got away from strictly Bibles names lol

I totally recommend the Baby Name Wizard book. The website is great, too, but the book is useful for helping you figure out what style you like and what fits with that style.

What style of names do you like? Tyler is kind of on the popular/trendy side, but Gregory is more conservative/classic.

Emily
Hannah
Olivia
Jenna
Natalie
Lauren
Allison

These names are all nearish to where Tyler is currently ranked on the US Social Security Administration's name page that I thought were similar in style to Tyler. I don't know how different Canada's naming trends are from ours, but I wouldn't imagine they would be too different.

Ashley
Sarah
Zoe
Kaylee
Kayla

As far as middle names, your first has a more traditional middle name so I'll try to fit with that.

Grace
Charlotte
Catherine
Margaret
Laura

A friend who named her son Taylor named her daughter Kylah... Unique but sweet, maybe you'd like it too!
