Baby Girl Names - Denver,CO

This site from the Social Security Administration was really helpful through both pregnancies for me:
http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/babynames/

We did not want common names, and if it was in the top 200 for any of the past few years, we immediately threw it out of contention.

I also went back historically (to my grandmother's generation, etc) to see what had been popular names.

Hope that helps.

I wouldnt worry about the popularity of a name when choosing just pick what you like. I had a little girl 9 months ago and my husband and i thought we were being very original when we chose Addison Nicole but it seems that Addison is not a very uncommon name anymore. We had the same problem when we named our son nearly 2 years ago (his name is Carson) and the first time we took him to the pediatrician he said he had 3 new patients with that name born in the last 2 months. Just pick what you like there will always be more people with that name so its not something I will consider if we have any more children.

I like Lilly, Marley and Ellie. Either one goes with Charlie and I think they are sweet names. I too LOVE LOVE LOVE the name Olivia!

Check out babynamewizard.com. The Baby Name Voyager program is amazing.

I researched your son's names using the voyager to see what sibling names go with them. You seem to like vowels. Charles' sister might be Elizabeth, but Eliot's sister would spell that with an "s". Eliot has more sisters with vowel names: Augustine, Adelaide, Isabella, but Elisabeth is better than any of those IMHO.

Eliot also has a sister Madeleine, which is my personal preferred spelling.

Finally, the one sister name they have in common is Caroline, which is sweet (no pun intended but yes I am a Red Sox fan.)

Seriously that web site is great, have fun. You can find out exactly how common a name has been over the last century, which is very helpful.

Cheers

I have a friend with a little girl named Elliott--very cute. I also like Piper, Parker and Peyton for a girl.

Here is my thought on naming a boy or girl;

Make sure it fits throughout life. Imagine THAT name on a 3 year old, 33 year old and 53 year old. (I also imagine that name on an office door!!)

I sometimes will come across someone with an adorable child with a real cutsey name...but then I think, "can you imagine having that cutsey name while trying to climb the corporate ladder?"

Just my opinion!!!

I agree- I did not want my child to be one in 3 with the same name in a small class. Classic names make that a little hard. I tried to list some classics or twists that I don't think are very common today. I would look at the Social Security site to see just how common the names are you like.

I met this little girl that her name is Praise, she is the first one I know with that name, but I like it :)

Caden
Lilly
Eliette
Just a few that came to mind

McCall. It's not that common and it's really cute! It's my middle name and I wish I went by that then M., which you turn a corner and there stands a M..

Well since it appears that we are done having babies over here I'll suggest my favorite girl name, Audry. Also like Lucille and love Olivia.
C.

I found my baby names from our family histories, our children have family names first and middle from both sides.

Well I had some picked out just in case our second was a girl...however we are having a boy and FINALLY picked a name so I know how hard it is :)

Our first is a girl and we named her Ashley (very traditional but always LOVED the name). We also had Brooke, Hailey, Morgan, Aubrey, and Aundrea (Aun-dre-a). My friend thought about Callaby (which is very different but came from her Great Grandmother. Thought that was cute too.

Hope that helps and let us know what you come up with :)

I totally agree with you about not wanting a name that is too popular. I also love some of the traditional girls names, but I can't stand the thought of my daughter growing up thinking her name is Emily B. or whatever because there are 3 other girls with the same name in her class. Abigail has always been one of my favorites, but it is so popular now I won't use it.
I like Adelaide, Celia, Violet, Gloria, Maelle, Lola, and Greta.
Best of luck with your pregnancy and delivery!

Adeline and call her addy, elizabeth, Catherine, Anne, Annabell and you can call her anna or bella, claire.
I know olivia is popular, but such a great name.
A friend of mine and I were just having this conversation. she loved the nickname addie, but didn't want to go with the popular and trendy Addison, so she chose Adeline. Even though some names are popular now, many of them, like Emily and Olivia are still classic. it's not like heather, crystal

My daughters name is Gwenyth Annette which I just love. I wanted a Gwen not a gwynn so I kinda tweeked the spelling a tad due to the fact that I didn't want Gwendolyn. I feel it is a name she can grow into and either keep Gwen or take on Gwenyth as she enters the business world if that is the route she wants to take.

Our second daughter is Catherine and we call her Kate. I think it is nice because while Katie is pretty common, Kate is not (you can't even find it on cups/stickers!) It is kind of old fashioned. I saw someone suggested Elliotte for a girl too and though I've never heard of it for a girl, it is totally cute!

My daughters are Amelia Elizabeth and Olivia Lane. Olivia is popular on paper but we only know three more, none in her class. The other ones we considered were Evelyn/Eve, Gianna, Sophia, Ella, Lola, Clara, Stella, Peyton, Brooke/Brooklyn, Ayla/isla, Avery, Natalie, Emerson, Charlotte, grace, maren, and Taryn. I also like Madeline and Anna, and haven't actually met any in six years!

i have always loved tiffany. what about candace it would go good with charlie.

I don't think Olivia is all that popular, and I love it. What about Ella?

Sophia, Rachel, Raquel, Angela, Amy, Margaret, or Nicole.

Grace
Heather
Julia

I like those names too, we choose Lily Anne three years ago. There are a few Lily's out there, but I loved the name too much to not choose it. Go with what you like! Others we considered Kathryn, Jayne, Isabelle, Cassandra (Cassy)... good luck and congrats on baby number two!

Chloe. I think it fits well with Charlie =-)

Congratulations on having another baby!!!!!
