Going into our anatomy scan we had a boys name locked in, but no hopes of having a girls name. We fought about it one day so bad that we tabled the discussion until we knew we'd actually have to deal with it. So of course we're having a Girl...
Were a mix of Italian and Irish and have been to Ireland recently. Our last name begins with D and is the same as a popular breakfast/diner chain....
Over the last week we narrowed it down to a few contenders, and would love to get you're thoughts

Audrey is our girl name if we have another!
I voted Audrey Grace. I think Emelia and Fiona are good too.

@Mrs Green Grass: @cheesetomywhine: Carmen is a strong contender because i'm due on my grandfathers birthday and he passed 2 years ago

Fiona and Evangeline are the most unique!
I think fiona kieran is a special name with lots of pizzazz. I would go with that one. It is unique without being weird.
Audrey grace is pretty, but VERY common.

Also, I like Fiona Carmen. That way you're still honoring the fam.

Will your dad feel weird about a girl Carmen, when he is a male Carmen? If he would like it, I really like that name in general. I think they are all really pretty, but I agree with @Rainbow Sprinkles: that Audrey Grace might be very popular.
I think Fiona is my favorite, but I'd be more likely to do Carmen as the middle name in that case, for the family connection. I like that it's pretty but also really easy to pronounce and spell.

I actually would like Fiona but with Josephine! I loved Fiona but DH wasn't on board.

@Foodnerd81: I dont think he'd feel weird about it, he's pretty sentimental and he was adamant about not naming my brother that because he always felt his name was too feminine (when I was in grade school I often got asked about my 2 moms)

@Chillybear: Even better, if he thought it was too feminine! I'd switch my vote to that then.

I love Fiona with Emelia as the runner up... not a personal fan of Audrey b/c it's more common.

Emilia Carmen sound nice, especially with your last name. I have a Cecilia josephine so of course Emilia Josephine sounds beautiful to my ear!
I liked that you didn't make us pick just one

I like Audrey Grace, because Audrey is my niece's name and I think it is just beautiful!

I love Fiona and Emelia (my pick) with your last name. I love how the syllables flow.

Evangeline's my favorite - it's on my own list too. I also like Emelia and Fiona with your last name. Audrey's not my favorite with your last name. I'd use Carmen as a middle with Evangeline!

I love Evangeline! I'm not a fan of Audrey Grace just because it's so popular.

You have some awesome names picked out, whatever you end up choosing you will not go wrong. I picked Carmen Evangeline for sentimental values.

I voted Emelia, but I like the ring of Audrey Grace ( and I do love the name Evangeline) I guess I'm not much help, huh?
