My friends Justin and Janette welcomed baby Emma Grace last night. She joins big brothers Elliot and Owen.

I know Emma Grace is a common combo, but those are two names that I personally don't think ever get old, they're classy, timeless, and pretty IMO.

And I LOVE Elliot and Owen.

Owen is an all-time fave of mine.

Elliott is nice.

I dislike Emma Grace. It's way too common IMO.

I love Owen. Elliot is nice. Emma and Grace are really popular but Grace, for me, is SO overused that I get tired of hearing it. It's so filler. That said, I think the sib-set really works.

I love all those names.

Ooh, that's a really nice sibset. Owen is one of my current boy favorites.

I think Emma Grace is very pretty, too. Why would a lot of people use it? Precisely because they're pretty, short, easy to pronounce, and come with nothing but good associations. I think Grace is best as a middle name when paired with classic names like Emma, Catherine, Julia, Mary, Anna, etc., or frilly names like Victoria, Amelia, Felicity, Priscilla, Vivian, etc. It's only when Grace (or Rose, for that matter) gets tacked on to names like Kinley, Bryleigh, Miley, Shaylee, etc. that it seems "common" to me.

I totally agree! :)

I like the sib set as a whole. I really like Elliot moreso than the others though.

These are all fantastic names. I love Grace and Owen.
