[ACDCDCAC]

that's a fun list, thanks christine

 

i love the name ainsleigh and how easily it flows, her whole name is so nice! you guys did a great job!

I love the names. They are all very classic. I'm all for uniqueness but I also hate to see kids get teased or have to correct people all of the time. I love Ainsleigh too, Christine! I think it is the perfect combination of unique and classic! Good Choice!

oh thanks girls for the compliments on our little girls name, it was all my hubby, he picked out both boy and girl names when we first started dating and getting serious, I only get say over middle names-he's so funny about it, but luckily I liked the names he picked otherwise I would have had to overpower him.

I love the name Ainsleigh it's unique. I'm not particularly fond of the most popular names on that list!

I love Ainsleigh....actually a lot better than Elizabeth. Jay has a VERY psycho ex-gf named Elizabeth, so she kinda ruined it for me.

 

Actually my students have ruined a lot of names for me....There are a lot of names I like that were the names of my monster students and I could never give them a name that reminds me of a monster student. Wierd, I know!

 

My best friend that is also preg. is naming her baby Charis...pronounced Caris. I told her she was going to have a lot of people pronouncing that "h." Actually the "ch" sound.

Yeah I have to agree with your hubby on this one too Christine - Ainsleigh is very pretty and I don't care for Elizabeth (sounds to old fashioned for my tastes.)

 

My DH has said if it is a girl it will be Isabella Nicole which is pretty high on my list too. I just wish it wasn't so popular but then again Sarah was pretty common durring my days and it hasn't ever bothered me. She would probably go by Izzy anyway.

Martha, this is totally my issue too, which is why I wasn't too worried about Will picking out names, I have so many names that I have liked and then get some awful student or some annoying student with that name.

I am so glad none of my reserve names are on there Christine - I love the name ainsleigh - it is very different and pretty!! and I don't think I know any right now so that makes it very cool in my book!!!

My biggest concern is naming my child a popular name. I HATE HATE HATE having the name Jennifer. It's not an ugly name, but there are SO many of us. It gets rather annoying. I remember there were 9 in my grad class. That is kind of crazy. I highly suggest thinking about the popularity issue before naming children!

I totally agree with you there! There were five of us in my Family Studies class, and three of us had last names beginning with "H", so the teacher couldn't even differentiate us that way. We ended up being labelled "Jennifer 1", Jennifer 2", etc.
