the baby name saga continues...

DH and I cannot agree on a girls name that we just love!! Our boy name is set- Nicholas Anthony. But girls...ummm yea we are all over the place with names, we must have a list of over 100 potentials but none that we just LOVE, KWIM? Anyway, what do you think of the following few names?

Mckenna
Kennedy
Reagan
Morgan
Arianna
Peyton
TIA! Chat Icon

Re: the baby name saga continues...

Thanks ladies! The thing is, our last name is very Italian (ends in a i), but I am irish so I love irish names. DS is Joseph, and another boy would be Nicholas, so we are sticking with Italian for the boys. But if this baby is a girl, I am not a huge fan of italian girl names, except Arianna and maybe Gianna. Does having two kids, one italian name, and one irish name, sound stupid? Like, Joseph and Kennedy?

Re: the baby name saga continues...

I dont think of Joseph as an Italian name so my answer is no, it does not sound stupid to have Joseph and an Irish girl name

Joseph can be anything - giuseppe is another story

I feel your pain!! DH and I have agreed on a boys name, but we can't agree when it comes to the girl.

My favorite off your list is:
Morgan
Reagan

Re: the baby name saga continues...

honestly... i am not a fan of very ethnic sounding first names when the last name is very ethnic sounding but of a different ethnicity.

my husband loves irish sounding first names (e.g. donovan, sullivan), but his last name (and the baby's) is very jewish. i just think it sounds funny, so we're going with more "neutral" names.

if you have a very italian last name, i would go with a more neutral name... of the ones you picked i like arianna. jmo. Chat Icon

I don't 'get' this ??? Chat Icon And alot of people feel this way - but your name is your name and it suits YOU regardless of the ethnicity - IMO.
My maiden name is Italian - 4 syllables ending in an "i" - My name is Marisa, which I guess COULD work if you pronounced it "MarEEsa" (which my Grandfather did) but my sister is Alexis .......And that's just her name .....KWIM? My cousin is Patrick - his father is Pasquale and they didn't want to name him Pasquqle ..........but at 30 years old Patrick "S" - 4 syllables - "I" doesn't sound 'weird' b/c his first name is 'Irish" .......KWIM?

name your kid what you want !! -

Re: the baby name saga continues...

LOVE McKenna but I am biased bc my DD is McKenna Rose. Our last name is very Irish and it sounds nice together.
