    @tororojo: I love Juliet too, but spelled Juliette. And I love the name Luisa... it reminds me of the girl from Sound of Music!

    @Rainbow Sprinkles: I think one reason I prefer Juliet is because it's shorter--I just like shorter names! Both are pretty though, you can't go wrong. I have considered going totally Sound of Music on baby names...maybe we'll have a second daughter named Marta? Which is also not common!

    @Mrs. Jacks: True! And just sounds so much prettier than Martha. Martha sounds like a 70 year old, but Marta could be a cute little girl!

    We are only naming Arab names....so there are MANY names(American names) that we would never use or can't use because we're sticking with Arabic names only....But I am IN LOVE with so many American names that it's getting insane. I think it would be weird to have 1+ children with Middle-Eastern names (like our 1st will be) and then a random American name in there....but I am totally considering it in some years down the line.

    These are my favorites evvver:
    Stella, Luna & Samantha
    &
    Jonah

    I liked Eleanor, gertrude(Gertie), Hattie and Millie for girls but husband veto'd them.

    For a boy I liked Miles but our last name is Long. I also like Elton, but it sounded too much like Elton John when said with our last name!

    @Rainbow Sprinkles: @tororojo: that's what I thought of too when I saw the other post about your name, Luisa! Made me think of Sound of Music :):)

    And agreed - I like Juliette better than Juliet.
