My second girl is a middle Jane too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/3#post-2528573 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 09:28:05 +0000 lamariniere 2528573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: I probably would have said the same thing a few years ago about the Liam/William thing. Just a combo I had never heard of! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/3#post-2528566 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 09:25:58 +0000 coopsmama 2528566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: oh no, I know you weren't saying that we shouldn't - I was just pondering if there were a deeper reason we shouldn't for DD's sake down the road (as she grows) and I guess I can't think of a reason why it will be an issue for her since so many do that already. She can choose to go by what she wants as she ages and if she prefers one or the other that will be fine. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/3#post-2528560 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 09:20:09 +0000 lamariniere 2528560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: of course you can call her what you want! I already stated that I think it's a nice name. I was just expressing that I had never heard of the two names being used together with one as a nickname. I honestly never knew Liam was a nn for William until HB either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/3#post-2528548 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 09:15:22 +0000 Mamaof2 2528548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: My formal name and NN can be 2 separate names but like your DH, my Dad wanted the formal name on the birth certificate but agreed to go by the NN my mom wanted</p> <p>Love Sylvia! It was my grandma's name and DD's middle name </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/3#post-2528536 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 09:11:08 +0000 coopsmama 2528536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: Yes, I know a girl who is called Sophie by her dad (you know you're around young kids too often when you type "dada" and have to fix it!!) and her official name is Sophia. Honestly this is just such a small issue I am not letting it concern me. I'm just glad that she's been given a name at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/3#post-2528531 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 09:08:57 +0000 coopsmama 2528531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: I know that is true in France and probably other European countries but since we are clearly not French, I guess I don't really care. It's a solidly American thing to do (I go by my nickname almost exclusively - no one has called me my given name since I was 10 or 11 when I insisted that they stop haha, I really don't like my first name sad to say) and I'm not concerned about it. I guess I don't know why it matters? Even if no one does that? I think of William and Liam as being separate and distinct names, too, but no one seems to think it's weird that the majority of boys being named William here these days are only called Liam. (I know two of these here in my small town and a few on HB!) I just don't think it will be an issue, separate names or what. We can call her what we want and DH can put what he wants on the birth certificate and no one will be the wiser. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/3#post-2528345 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 07:18:29 +0000 lamariniere 2528345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: I know people named Sophia and Sophie and none of them use nicknames other than maybe Soph. Same with Sylvia/Sylvie (Sylv). I mean, I don't care what the OP does and I think both names are lovely. My thought was that they are just separate but similar names....like Isabelle/Isabella. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2528341 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 07:12:23 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2528341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: I dont know, I kinda assumed Sophie could be a NN for Sophia so I assumed the same here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2528337 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 07:01:20 +0000 Synchronicity 2528337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LOVE it! ♥ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2528295 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 02:03:00 +0000 lamariniere 2528295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sylvia and Sylvie are both lovely names, great choice. :heart: FWIW, I think they are two completely separate names though and I don't think of Sylvie as a nickname for Sylvia, kind of like how Sophie and Sophia are two distinct names. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2528292 Tue, 19 Apr 2016 01:57:45 +0000 Boogs 2528292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baby Sylvie, congrats! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2528275 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 23:52:30 +0000 mrschickpea 2528275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: :heart: Sylvie Jane!

Beautiful name :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2528211 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 21:14:21 +0000 coopsmama 2528211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: @LibbyLou: We've officially decided that her name will indeed by Sylvia ("Sylvie" - DH won't name her what he considers a nickname, probably because my name is technically a nickname) Jane. But he is already only calling her Sylvie so I expect it to be more of a what's-on-her-birth-certificate thing than her actual name. I basically just looked at his list and told him my top two off of it (some were completely NO go's) and told him he could choose! He said he really wanted her to be Sylvia so I chose the middle name. :) The kids really love the name, too, it seems, so I'm glad we chose it. DH seems super thrilled he got to be the one to choose the name this go around, too. </p> <p>@T.H.O.U.: I hope you guys can come to a consensus soon. It is so hard when one person almost refuses to consider anything but what they want. And it's even worse when they refuse to consider any of your ideas BUT don't come up with any of their own. :meh: I am looking forward to hearing what you name your baby girl! </p> <p>@JennyD: YES. It is so difficult. Girl names are just tough for us for some reason. We probably won't be done after this baby and I am already nervous that we will have another girl name to choose. And fwiw, I really love Hadley. What a great choice. My sister has mentioned that as a top choice for a potential future daughter some day, otherwise I would have had that on my list. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2528204 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 20:53:24 +0000 JennyD 2528204@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This thread has made me realize that if I had to name another girl I would have to start the moment I became pregnant. Good thing we're done. </p> <p>I will suggest:<br /> Hadley (my LO)<br /> Harper<br /> Dawson<br /> Karolina </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2528174 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 20:27:09 +0000 LibbyLou 2528174@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: if sylvie Jane isn't right maybe read the baby naming wizard? It categorizes names by style and if you can determine your husbands style, maybe you can find one you like! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2528154 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 20:01:39 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2528154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: I love Sylvie Jane! </p> <p>We are in the same boat. Taking all rules away and DH is shooting most names down </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2527474 Mon, 18 Apr 2016 08:20:54 +0000 justjules 2527474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Remington (nn Remy)<br /> Briar<br /> Vesper<br /> Ora<br /> Parker<br /> Haven </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2526942 Sun, 17 Apr 2016 04:48:50 +0000 808love 2526942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mari<br /> Romy<br /> Teia </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2526929 Sun, 17 Apr 2016 00:28:07 +0000 oskarsmommy 2526929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Milla<br /> Frankie<br /> Goldie<br /> Nora<br /> Vera </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2526928 Sun, 17 Apr 2016 00:20:46 +0000 pregnantbee 2526928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sylvie is cute!</p> <p>I thought of another name that hasn't been mentioned in this thread. Thought I'd throw it out there bc you never know :)</p> <p>Scarlet - also great for what will surely be red hair! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2526798 Sat, 16 Apr 2016 15:40:39 +0000 coopsmama 2526798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@avivoca: DH is unwilling to put on her birth certificate just Sylvie but he says he would call her Sylvie so I guess it's the same thing. I would guess it's our top contender right now. (Another positive thing - MIL is Janell so Jane is the start of her name.) I think I can get on board with Sylvie Jane completely. Maybe, just maybe, we've hit the name?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2526779 Sat, 16 Apr 2016 15:10:10 +0000 avivoca 2526779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: I love Sylvie Jane, but I also adore Sydney Jane (I'm biased though since my cousin named her daughter that). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2526773 Sat, 16 Apr 2016 14:48:23 +0000 caterw 2526773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a friend with a little girl Spencer, which I think is really cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2526772 Sat, 16 Apr 2016 14:47:40 +0000 coopsmama 2526772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: I do like that aspect as well. I asked DH last night what he would name DD2 off of his list and he said 100% Sylvia nn Sylvie. I definitely think it's his favorite. I like the middle name Jane with it which balances the spunk I think (and DD1 has a J middle name) - I really like family names and my mom always wished her name was Jane or that she had named a daughter Jane so I feel like that would be an honor for my mom even though it's not a family name in the traditional sense. Hmmmm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/alright-lets-try-yet-another-girl-name-thread/page/2#post-2526751 Sat, 16 Apr 2016 13:34:52 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2526751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: I think it sounds fine with your last name! And would be super cute all together once you add a middle name in there. I like that Sylvie has spunk lime M's name. </p>
