Looking for Opinions/Perspective/Suggestions/Combos...
close [x]
I'm not ready to have children quite yet, but the topic of potential baby names came up with my boyfriend the other day and I'd really like some perspective on my all-time favorite names. :)
My top three girls names are:
Liberty Caitlyn-Lana (nn Libby)
Juliet _____-Presley
Alyssa
But I absolutly cannot come up with combos for Juliet and Alyssa. Other girls names I like would be Summer, Autumn, Amanda, Chasity, Micaela, Elisabeth, and Aanika- but somehow I can't get them to "go" right with Juliet and Alyssa. I do want two mns.
Help/new suggestions totally appreciated!!!
The only boys name I love right now is Brantley Jacob. We are country, so we appreciate the fact that Brantley Gilbert is popular right now ;)
My problem with boys names is that I just "sort of" like a lot of boys names, there's none that I love.
I kind of like Zane, Leland, and Porter. For mns, I would use Michael or Matthew (family names)
I'd love to hear what y'all think, and hear any new names/suggestions you might have!
Thanks in advance. :)

Haha, its only after I posted my thread that I scroll down and see yours and Im glad that Autumn and Juliette are on your favourites list! My one year old daughters name is Autumn and I simply adore it!
Im not the biggest fan of trendy names and so Liberty Caitlyn-Lana isn't really my favourite and also it is quite 'L' heavy so it doesn't flow terribly well. Liberty Caitlyn-Summer or Liberty Caitlyn-Presley would be sweet. I can also see Juliet Aanika-Presley working quite nicely. Although I prefer the spellings Juliette and Annika!
As for the boys, Brantley Jacob is an interesting combo! I actually really quite like it! It sounds so refreshing and generally cool. Not sure if its popular where you live but here in the UK we're still very much into our Samuel's and Alexander's (not that there's anything wrong with them, in fact Alexander is in my top boy combo) so I think its pretty cool :)
Oh my goodness, I'm absolutely in love with Liberty Caitlin-Presley. I really had my heart set on Liberty Caitlin-Lana but it never flowed quite right. I adoreeeeeee that. Thank you so much!
I go back and forth on my Aanika/Annika spelling. I like Annika better traditionally, but the double a would honor my cousin.
I'm glad someone else likes Brantley! It's not very popular here, although it's been gaining popularity a bit due to the country music singer Brantley Gilbert.
I really like Alexander, and it's not that popular here!
It's so cool how we both like Juliet(te) and Autumn- they're not that common, either! Autumn's always been precious to me, and I've known anyone younger who's named Autumn, so you're seriously AWESOME for naming your daughter that. ;)
Aww thank you, that means a lot :) And its great you like Liberty Caitlin-Presley, I think it goes pretty well, yay! I think if Aanika honours someone then you should definitely keep that spelling as well :)

Thank you so much for responding!
As far as the hyphenated name, my only reason for doing it is so that they will only have one middle initial (it would be easier to fill out forms, etc) so the fact that as a hyphenated name, Caitlin-Lana doesn't go together, that doesn't bother me. Lana and Presley are both names to honor my grandma, so thats where that came from (Lana is prn like hannah).
I like Juliet Claire a lot!
Neither of us like "common" names, so Brantley is more appealing than Brandon.
Thank you both again for sharing with me. :)

I love Juliet! I don't like the sound of double middle names in general so I can't really give suggestions for those. Juliet Lana could work or Juliet Caitlyn.
I like Zane, too and I think either of your MN options work well with it.

i dont like liberty as a name. and i think caitlyn and lana dont really go together as a hyphenated name. i think caitlyn and libby are cute though.
juliet is very pretty. presley sounds too last namish. i would pair something pretty with juliet. like
juliet claire
juliet rose
juliet annabelle
i really like alissa. spelled this way. although i know the most common way is alyssa.
i also like elisabeth, michaela, summer and amanda.
for boys i like jacob and not brantley but i like brant or brandon.
