i'm having a really hard time settling on a style of names. i know that once we name the first one, we're pretty set with a type. problem is the names i love are all over the place! heres some we're thinking:


Charlotte (nn Lo), Sophie, Audrey


Sloane, Quinn, Piper


Rosalie, Arabella (nn Ella), Anneliese


 


ahhhh all over the place! anyone have any suggestions or preferences??

I agree with the PPs, the 1st and 3rd set work really well stylistically. I even think you could slot Piper in with those and it would be fine. (Piper and Sophie, Piper and Charlotte...pretty). So the only ones that don't really fit are Quinn and Sloane. 

So, i'd choose to go with the style that you have the majority of names in.  Charlotte, Sophie, Audrey, Anneliese and Piper are my favourite. The style is classic and beautiful and not likely to go our of style any time soon. They are also a lot of names that fit into that style so you'll have lots to choose from. You can't lose really.

I know lots of people who have children with names that don't have "matching" styles.  Sometimes I think, hmmmm...that name seems a little different than the others, but for the most part....it doesn't really matter.  All that matters is that you and your hubby love the names.  My girls names to some go together and to others they think they are all over the place too.  Go with what you love and don't worry so much!  :)

Just occurred to me that Arabella and Anneliese are etymologically related. (Both come from Anna.) Maybe that doesn't bother you, but I'm just saying.

My favorites are Charlotte, Piper and Anneliese so I think, in a way, all three sets can work together!

I agree with what a few other pp have said, I like the first and third set of names and think they could be used beautifuly together!

 

It really depends on which style or name you love most

Whichever style you start with, I think you should continue...

I love the classically beautiful names you have listed: Charlotte, Sophia, Audrey, Rosalie, Arabella, Anneliese...I don't think these names will go out of style as easy as Sloane, Quinn, or Piper

Trendy names tend to go out of style quickly as well as group your child with the other children of that time... for example, most Brendas are in their 50s and 60s and most Jennifers are in their 30s and 40s...

Good Luck!

I like the first and third sets, as well.  I think Charlotte, Arabella, and Anneliese are my favorites and they would go great together.  I think Lola (or just Lo--Lo is cute but I just adore Charlotte nn Lola!), Ella, and Annie would be so sweet together.

 

Good luck!

I like the first and third sets. Not a fan of Sloane or Piper at all, and Quinn just isn't my style.

Charlotte, Sophie, Audrey ok these are more classic i think. they are ok. like sofia and aubrey instead of sophie and audrey.

 

Sloane, Quinn, Piper hate boyish names on girls. piper is ok but quinn is a great boys name and sloane... how could this be a name especially on a girl..

 

Rosalie, Arabella (nn Ella), Anneliese this style is my favorite. pretty girly ones. i like all of these.

I like Rosalie, Arabella, and Anneliese the best! They're so beautiful, I love this style of name. I prefer Rosalia over Rosalie though but they're both beautiful.
