Baby has a birthdate!

[MrsAxilla]

C/S scheduled for 10/9 - 7 weeks from today!  Now, someone PLEASE tell me what to name this girl!!

[Jalapeñomel]

Woohoo! That's my anniversary too!

[thejackpot]

Exciting! I have my own name issues so no help from me

[trafficgirl]

Yay - very exciting! No name suggestions though - sorry.

[Velar Fricative]

Yay!! Sorry, can't help with the names. We are kinda hoping this baby is a boy because we are struggling with girl names.

[winecheery]

Give us your top picks for girls and we'll vote! And congrats on a due date!

[blindyswife]

Yay how exciting!!

And name her Margo. Cause that was our runner up and I'm kind of sad we couldn't use it.

If I could, I would have named her like a royal baby- Betsy Margo Lucille of Cambridge. Ha.

[snickers]

Exciting!

As of TODAY, the top two choices are Isla Elisabeth and Stella Elisabeth.  

DH just saw his grandmother's birth cert over the weekend and that's how she spelled Elisabeth.  Apparently EVERYBODY spelled it with a Z and she gave up correcting people years ago.

Katie. Because that's my name.

Love Katie/Kate/Katherine and all variations.  DH nixed it though

I like Isla but you always have people mispronouncing it.

[winecheery]

MrsAxilla if you guys are set on Elisabeth as a middle name, I think Stella Elisabeth sounds better together.

How are you pronouncing Isla? That might change my mind, because I think it's a very unique option. But saying it aloud, Stella rolls off the tongue easier.

Eye-la.  I know it will probably be mispronounced some, but I'm not sympathetic.  My name was always mispronounced and misspelled, and Isla is WAY easier than mine.  

So Isla was my #1 for a while, while DH preferred Stella.  Then I sort of came around to Stella as #1, and DH switched to Isla!

OOoooohhh I was totally pronouncing it wrong!  Isn't there a celebrity out there who pronounces it Ees-La??  I think that's what I was thinking. Well that and I know that's how you'd pronounce it in Spanish.  

Regardless, I think I still like Stella because it means star.  I love looking at the stars

[MrsAxilla]

winecheery - you're right. Ees-la Elisabeth doesn't flow very well. Lol.
