Girls names

Ok this has to be the most stressful part of pregnancy -what to name your baby.

would love some opinions on some names. we are having a little girl (though if it was a boy we would be fine) and so far we have got

Ella
Isabella
Katherine
Jasmine
Indiana (though more as a middle name)

the surname will be both of our names Robertson-Reeves.

what do people think? any suggestions at all

Help!

Very pretty choices!

I think all your choices are very pretty though I am not so keen on Indiana. You can mix and match your pics for the first name and the middle so that 2 of your favorites can be part of your little angels name. I think Jasmine Isabella goes quite nice together - very exotic. good luck! i want to know what you decide!

Hello

I prefer longer names that can be shortened so prefer Isabella and then you can always call her Ella anyway but it leaves more room to experiment.
Not sure about Isabella Indiana Robertson-Reeves though, too many Is and Rs. Isabella Katherine or Isabella Jasmine sounds better to me. Trouble is it's such a personal decision, you've got to find the combination you like best!
Also to me Indiana will always be Jones and the temple of doom!

All lovely names!

Hey Lis, they are all lovely names. I like Ella the best. Ella Robertson-Reeves. I am not sure about middle names as they are never used. Great if you want to get your mum/grandmas name in there somewhere though!lol But other than that I am not sure they are necessary especially with baby having a db surname. Then thats me I havent really thought of names, everytime I think of them...it gets too confusing! That many to choose from!lol

Thats a lovely gesture of putting the dads name in as a double barrell with your own!

Ooooooooooooh

Nice mix you have there

We have narrowed it down to either Jamsine or Ruby for a and for a boy Riley.

MY list of girls names was Jasmine, Ruby, Rosie, Isla,or Emma

best of luck

Love

More suggestions...

Before we found out we were going to have a boy our names were Gabriella and Sophia - girly names like yours. I really love Indiana though - really pretty and unique.
Grace is beautiful too x

Maybe a bit bias...

I may be a bit bias due to having due to having a daughter called Ella, but i think its a lovely name. It is really pretty...it goes with you surnames too. I like Isabelle or Isabella. Ella has got to be best though I have a 15month old daughter called Ella Skye.

Girls names

Hello,

I don't know whether we are having a girl or boy yet... however a really nice girls name is Grace and my sister in law called her daughter Ella Grace last year and I thought that was a lovely combination.... I think girls names are harder - there seems to be more choice!

Hi

I think Ella/Isabella and Jasmine are lovely.

Not sure about a db surname though, I think unless its being done for the correct reasons then it should be done at all (sorry thats just me though - a bit of a traditionalist)

Surnames

reason for this is that my OH and I are not together anymore. i would have loved for her to take his name on its own and that would have been the plan had he not walked out. If we were getting married or still in a stable relationship then there would be no questions but i if that is not going to happen then i really want her to have my name too and she is part of him so want her to have his name aswell.

not the way i planned it at all but what can i do

x

I think

thats a really nice idea a lot of my friends whove split with their partners have been really nasty about it its lovely your doing what you can for your daughter to be a part of her dads life.

Nice names!

I like Isabella myself * my eldest is an Isabel lol* I also think ella is really pretty I cant stand Katherine but thats because or someone I dont like and Indiana is different but very pretty!

Naming baby

you've got really pretty names there, if you would like Indiana for a middle name I think Isabelle Indiana Robertson-Reeves sounds lovely, I know it's slightly different to Isabella but that sounds nice I think....the other names are nice too, but that'd be my favourite, although adapted slightly, hehe.

I suppose Ella wouldn't get shorted, where as Isabella will be shortend to Izzy as Katherine to Kat and Jasmine to Jaz...

Good luck choosing!

We haven't confirmed any names yet although we have faveourites for either sex (we don't know what we're having) don't want to confirm until we see our baby!

Same here

we wanted a few options so we could decide once she arrives as we won't really know until we see her what she'll be like.

Hiya

ella is nice i like it coz its short and catchy goes well with your surnames i think your rght indiana is a lovely middle name, i thought i was having a girl and we're having a boy like you happy at either we thought ellie or millie. Isabella would prob get shortened to issie, and kath, jas for the others, harder to shorten an already short name. My partners surname is masarati and it looks like our little fella is going to be frank, frankie masarati, sounds more like something out of the soprano's then a future doctor, who knows when they come out we may think of something completely different. not long now let us know what you opt for, best of luck, kerry and frankie 34 + 5

I like

jasmine, i think it goes better with your surnames
