Need Help with Name

by amyvr, Jun 17, 2008 08:00PM
My husband and I are struggling with a name for our little girl. We are due to have her in 8 weeks and we are all tied. I have a two and half year old son who loves the name Addison. When we give him the 3 first names we have narrowed it down to he picks Addison every time regardless of order in which we ask him. My husband leans more toward Ava and I like Kennedy. I really like all of them, but Kennedy is the least popular right now and I'm certain she'll have at least 2 other Addison's or Ava's in her class growing up because those names are so popular right now.

We have taken a name poll through e-mail with our family and friends and unbelievably enough we have a tie between Kennedy and Addison.

Here are the names we have narrowed it down to:

Ava Nicole
Kennedy Nicole
Addison Nicole

Why not just name her Kennedy Addison? Or Addison Kennedy?

My husband doesn't like them together because he says it appears to be my maiden name attached to her name. (Because they're both also last names)

My Aunt suggested Kennedy Ava. I just don't want naming remorse...this is really hard!

I love the name Ava. I hear you on the naming drama.  I'm 36 weeks and we're set on a boy name but still struggling with a girl name - we don't know what we're expecting.  Good luck!

Im 30 + 2 and am having the same dilemna - i plan on calling my little girl Ava Rose, i love the name Ava and its not at all common here in Scotland.

I also like:

Amalie
Sienna
Madisyn

I know what you mean about it being difficult though, i dont want her to hate me in 10 years time lol

OMG...I love the name Kennedy but DH doesn't like it...I have loved it since I was in HS like 10+ years ago!  I would go with Kennedy Ava because the other two are just too long together (in my opinion).  Good luck!  I am so jealous!

I like Ava Nicole...

Good Luck!

I like the name Kennedy and I am currently considering it for my little one.  I have always liked the name.  LOL When I was in hs I told my mom I was naming all of kids after presidents, b/c for girls I liked Kennedy and Madison and for a boys I liked Carter and Reagan.  Good luck!
