I think we'll have to just table it and review our big list again when we find out what we're having. I don't think I'll be able to commit to a name until I even know if I'm having a girl. Lol</p> <p>With T we just knew as soon as we saw it that it was the perfect name. Our boy name this time around is the same way. I'm just not having that "Ah-hah!" moment with any girl names. Luna is the closest but I keep second guessing it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2/page/2#post-2511565 Thu, 31 Mar 2016 12:28:19 +0000 Raindrop 2511565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Madeline!!! but I agree with @Foodnerd81: I think Luna is the name for you. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2/page/2#post-2511563 Thu, 31 Mar 2016 12:27:30 +0000 artsyfartsy 2511563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: I have an unusual name and I love being the only one I know with my name. Although no one EVER pronounces it right let alone spells it right so I'm trying to give my kids the benefit of a unique name without the cons. </p> <p>It's hard. Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2/page/2#post-2511560 Thu, 31 Mar 2016 12:25:54 +0000 Foodnerd81 2511560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artsyfartsy: I think Luna for you. Faline I think you are right and she will have mispronunciations. And I love Madeline but I think i think you like more unusual names. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2/page/2#post-2511555 Thu, 31 Mar 2016 12:22:28 +0000 artsyfartsy 2511555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Alright after consideration here's an updated list. Only two original names remain and I added 2 new ones. Haven't run them by DH yet since he's at work. </p> <p>Luna<br /> Elliott<br /> Faline - (Fuh-leen) Cute but may have some pronunciation and spelling issues. Kind of out there.<br /> Madeline - Very classic and pretty. A little too high on the popularity list and plain for my taste. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510782 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 17:46:00 +0000 littlebug 2510782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the name Luna. And FWIW, Luna in HP is an amazing character. She's brave, loyal, smart, and a dreamer. Nothing wrong with any of that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510759 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 17:06:44 +0000 Ms. RV 2510759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like Laurel but it doesn't look like it is very much your style. Second to that is Luna. How about Elodie or Eloise instead of Elliot? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510743 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 16:40:40 +0000 Autumnmama79 2510743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love Ireland! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510740 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 16:39:07 +0000 PawPrints 2510740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Luna or Laurel. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510725 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 16:19:26 +0000 stiletto_mom 2510725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Really like Laurel and Piper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510723 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 16:16:45 +0000 Raindrop 2510723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How about Haddie?

It wouldn't really affect us. </p> <p>@LBee: I keep putting them together but none of them really stand out as perfect together or anything. Elliott sounds really similar and that throws me off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510658 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:59:07 +0000 whiskers 2510658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artsyfartsy: What about Lena instead of Luna? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510653 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:53:15 +0000 Chillybear 2510653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a little girl come in recently her name was Saylor. </p> <p>Luna- too close to Loon? as in looney tunes<br /> maybe something else celestial in feel<br /> <a href="http://nameberry.com/list/362/Celestial-Baby-Names?all=1" rel="nofollow">http://nameberry.com/list/362/Celestial-Baby-Names?all=1</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510651 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:52:58 +0000 artsyfartsy 2510651@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FaithFertility: We have a close cousin with a name that rhymes with Isla. She and T are together all the time. Unusable. I'm so sad about it too. Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510650 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:52:53 +0000 whiskers 2510650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: That was pretty much exactly what I was going to say.</p> <p>I like Laurel the best and Luna is a second. I don't like when sibling names end the same. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510638 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:37:32 +0000 LBee 2510638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artsyfartsy: What about Iris? </p> <p>I prefer Laurel of the bunch, but it's not my kid. I think if you both love Luna then go for it! Don't let fear of what other people think keep you from using a name you love. Haters gonna hate.. just do you.</p> <p>Try calling for your imaginary kids with each name -- T &amp; "insert name" -- which feels right? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510635 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:35:31 +0000 FaithFertility 2510635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artsyfartsy: Isla?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510633 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:32:11 +0000 erinpye 2510633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artsyfartsy: Sloane is slang some other places too. I don't think it's an issue unless you live or spend a lot of time where Piper is slang.</p> <p>ETA I also love Luna and don't think of HP, and I'm a huge HP fan. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510631 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:29:28 +0000 avivoca 2510631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Luna, but I also like Lula. I don't discard names unless it sounds really silly for an adult to have that name (like Heavenly or something). If she wanted, she could go by her middle name professionally if you wanted something more unique like Luna or Ireland. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510630 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:29:25 +0000 artsyfartsy 2510630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: Elliott hangs me up a bit for that reason. </p> <p>@LibbyLou: VERY nice list!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510628 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:28:39 +0000 artsyfartsy 2510628@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Meowkers: Haha same 😂</p> <p>Except for the Piper slang I feel the same way. Ireland is pretty but if someone asked why we picked it I would just have to say "Uh because it's pretty" haha.</p> <p>Laurel is classic but a little boring to me too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510626 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:27:58 +0000 LibbyLou 2510626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted to vote for more than one! All are good names- names I wouldn't blanche if I heard on the playground. Sailor\Saylor is getting more popular so I don't see why Luna would come across less professional than Sailor. I don't mind Ireland either.<br /> I say scratch sailor bc DH hates it, scratch laurel bc both are meh.<br /> Some names that were noun names that you like or Piper made me think of them:<br /> Chloe<br /> Flora<br /> Verity<br /> Fallon<br /> Iris<br /> Willow </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510621 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:25:54 +0000 Meowkers 2510621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well I biased because Elliott is my daughter's name but obviously that's my choice. I truly love her name more and more all the time.</p> <p>I think Luna and Sailor sound like pet names to me (like for a cat), so I'm not a fan. Also not a fan of Piper but that's because it's slang in a few countries and it's not something I would want my daughter associated with.</p> <p>Ireland is pretty but be prepared to back that up with some explanation as to why you chose that place name. Laurel is totally unoffensive obviously but a little boring to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510620 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:24:31 +0000 lawbee11 2510620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think Elliott is too matchy with your son's name. Laurel is my favorite. And I agree with PP that Luna is not any less professional than Sailor or Piper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girl-name-poll-2#post-2510619 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 14:24:18 +0000 erinpye 2510619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love love love Piper- it was one of our top choices when we ultimately selected Sloane for DD1! </p>
