Name for a little girl!

[danielleacor]

Hey everyone,
Last week i found out I'm having a girl, and i can't decide on names. It's driving me insane. I love the name Isabella (bella for short), but i looked online and it's the #3 name in the country. So since my mind was so set on that name, i'm having a hard time liking anything else. So i thought maybe i could get some suggestions from you.
Or should i just ignore the statistics, and just go with the name i really want?

I would suggest that if you really like the name then that is all that matters. It doesn't matter if it is a popular name or not. Good luck! Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Isabelle sounds really smart... I don't mean to be biased but I like it!

I tend to agree with Kels---whatever makes you happy.  But I know the conflicting feelings, I'm the same way, I don't want a name that there will be 5 of in his or her kindergarten class, lol.  So in an effort to get your brain rolling over some possibilities, here are some of the ones on my list:

- Annabelle
(i used to love isabelle and isabella too, then i heard this one and it just sounded so sweet and innocent, but still sophisticated.  it was so similar, yet different enough to be uncommon--and bella still works as a "for short")
- Delaney
- Shiloh
- Ainsley
- Whitley
- Hailey
- Reagan
- Laurel
- Lanie
- Georgia
- Genevieve
- Savannah
- Marley (the "trendiest" of my picks, i'm not a fan of trendy!!)
- Shelby

For us - Isabella was the first choice.  Like you said - very popular - in the top 5 for the last 8 years.  With the movie Twilight, it will likely be even more popular.  We may go with Annabelle using both of our moms middle names (Ann).  My daughter has the middle name Delaney and we love it - original and Jimmy Buffets daughters middle name too!  We are due between June 29 - July 2nd!

Wow! I love everyone suggestions. Thank you so much! I will defidently keep those in mind, and talk them over with the hubby.

Thank you again!

I think Isabella is very cute. I really like Izzie for short.  I havent found out what Im having yet, but I started to like the name Olivia if its a girl.  I seem to change my mind every other week though! Its hard to make the commitment.  My son wasn't named until he was 2 days old.  :)

I love Olivia and wanted to name my first daughter that...if its a girl I may use that or Hayden or Leighton. One of the three..

Leighton is definately a favorite of mine, but baby daddy nixed that! :(
