I...Courtney, thanks so much for your nice comment! I think she's pretty spectacular too. <br />Naming Olivia was PAINFUL. Like, insane. She wasn't named until 3 days after she was born. And now I feel bad for her that her name is in the top 10 most popular from the year she was born. How were we to know that when she came only 8 days after the year began?? <br />Anyway, I saw once that you were considering Isla, which I LOVE. We also considered Edie (ee-dee), but were too worried that she'd end up as Eddy her whole life. <br />And Lucy is beautiful, too!Jenihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15271018785187463344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5902309943621622940.post-4388240597854457472010-08-10T23:32:06.180-07:002010-08-10T23:32:06.180-07:00My sister just used the name Adelina.. and Addi fo...My sister just used the name Adelina.. and Addi for short!

My sister-in-law has an adelle and they all like older names too. So here are a few ideas: Clara (that's one we're thinking of), Rose, Hattie and Mamie (old family names), Tabitha, Olivia, Elizabeth, Eliza, Sophia, Molly, Gretchen (that's my sister-in-laws name), Heidi, Dorthia and call her Dori....That's all I can think of on the top of my head. But I"ll keep thinking and ask my sister-in-laws.

I found your blog through Brooke & Matt's, and my mom and I love to use your recipes on the Happy Healthy blog!<br /><br />We are totally opposite of you, I have so many girls names that I love and have no idea what we will name our boys!!<br /><br />I love the names Nora, Caroline, and Alice-they seem classic. good luck!!The Taylorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04064973440002551694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5902309943621622940.post-42205514353999226032010-08-09T09:23:40.732-07:002010-08-09T09:23:40.732-07:00What helped us naming our boys was we picked our t...What helped us naming our boys was we picked our top 5 favorites and waited till we saw our little arrival. With Caleb, we had Owen, Gavin and Caleb as our favorites. When I first saw him I immediately thought, "He's a Caleb." After seeing Fred (since I had a c-section) I told him what I thought and he said he thought the exact same thing. So, it will work out but I think it really helps when you actually get to see the little one.The Evertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15440788328684963169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5902309943621622940.post-54084474521634217242010-08-08T23:15:48.099-07:002010-08-08T23:15:48.099-07:00We had trouble too.

Our rule of thumb was not to choose any names in the top 100. happy hunting!<br /><br />http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/babynames/Missyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11593515436022790929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5902309943621622940.post-80879628262480098662010-08-08T23:14:19.163-07:002010-08-08T23:14:19.163-07:00I also like the name Petra.
