Others on our list that leaned classic but not crazy common were Georgiana, Frances and Marianne. Classic but more current - Anna, Eleanor and Lucy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-name-post-girl-edition#post-2279327 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 14:14:58 +0000 Alba4 2279327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Cecelia.

What about Matilda instead of Madeline? Slightly less common, but can have same nickname (Mattie).</p> <p>Other contenders: Grace, Penelope, Evelyn, Vivian... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-name-post-girl-edition#post-2279299 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 13:50:09 +0000 ChiCalGoBee 2279299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katbridg: I love Cecilia. Our dog is actually Cecilia, and our dogs are out first babies. I picked it because I loved it for a future daughter's name and my husband didn't love it, so he let me use it for her. We sing her the Simon and Garfunkel song all the time:-). I love Madeline, too, but I feel like I know SO many little Madelines/Maddies.<br /> Tessa, Amelia, Lila...or even just "Celia"? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-name-post-girl-edition#post-2279283 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 13:44:45 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2279283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a Cecilia. We get compliments every time we say her name to someone. Great classic name. Though I'm always happy when people don't use it and it stays in the 230-250 range. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-name-post-girl-edition#post-2279264 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 13:34:30 +0000 katbridg 2279264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for the feedback! I'm happy to Cecilia is in the lead. ;) You guys are full of some other great suggestions that we'll have to add to our list. I have a feeling this will be a hospital-made decision... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-name-post-girl-edition#post-2279226 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 13:02:38 +0000 LibbyLou 2279226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like Cecilia! </p> <p>Audra<br /> Hannah<br /> Lydia </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-name-post-girl-edition#post-2279222 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 13:01:05 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2279222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>:heart: Cecilia, but Madeline is awesome too!</p> <p>Other classic favs- Camille, Meredith, Alexandra, Natalie, Beverly </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-name-post-girl-edition#post-2279211 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 12:54:13 +0000 twodoghouse 2279211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Cecilia!

Any of those stand out for you? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-name-post-girl-edition#post-2279127 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 12:08:02 +0000 agold 2279127@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love your names. John and Caroline??? That is so cute and classy. I hope you have a boy. :silly: For another girl, I really think you should go with Katherine, Elizabeth or Charlotte - all royal names! (I consider the Kennedy's American royalty!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-name-post-girl-edition#post-2279126 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 12:07:52 +0000 Ms.Badger 2279126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Victoria, Alice, Alexandria, Rosalie </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-name-post-girl-edition#post-2279114 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 12:04:25 +0000 Mamaof2 2279114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know sisters named Caroline and Emma and think they flow well </p> <p>Btwn Cecilia and Madeleine I like Madeline </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-name-post-girl-edition#post-2279107 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 12:02:22 +0000 katbridg 2279107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi all,</p> <p>Sorry to add yet another name post but we are completely stuck on a name for Baby #2 who is due in 10 days. Our daughter is Caroline. We like classic names and can't use the following because they have already been used in our huge families (Katherine, Elizabeth, Claire, Jane, Mary, and Charlotte). If we have a boy, he will be John. </p> <p>I love Cecilia but my husband is lukewarm on it. He loves Madeleine/Madelyn but I'm not sold. Any suggestions? Or can you help settle our debate between Cecilia and Madeleine? </p> <p>Thank you! ;) </p>
