second thoughts on name
After going through a ton of names we decided on Ashley.
But now I'm not sure if I really love it.
Angelina has been my second favorite but now I'm thinking of totally different names....
Lila, Ellie, Eliza, Lorianna
How do I decide!!! 
DH is set on Ashley so he'll probably flip when I start suggesting all these other names.
I'm 33 weeks so I'd like to make a decision.
Anyone else second guessing their name choice or picked a totally different name towards the end.

Re: second thoughts on name
I'm 35 weeks and have second guessed the name a few times, but come to realize it's a name that my DH and I agree on and LOVE and can't see our little  with any other name.
Plus we also have many personalized items with her name already

Re: second thoughts on name
I was too hesitant to get anything with Ashley on it. DH scanned a few personalized things while we were registering but I deleted them just in case we changed our minds

Re: second thoughts on name
We did! THought we picked a name at 20 weeks, DH backpeddled, and we went back to the drawing board. Poor DD didn't have a name until I was 37 weeks pg. I know two women who's babies didn't have names for the first day or two in the hospital. Talk to DH and see what he thinks of some of your other suggestions. You may wait to see her, and see what name she "looks like."

Re: second thoughts on name
don't even get me started on names! Everytime i think we have agreed on names I second guess it and start looking at new names.

Re: second thoughts on name
My experience last time around was this-
I thought I picked a name twice. Both times I kept having small doubts and thinking of reasons why it was no good such as his nickname will be x or it sounds like x, etc.
When I came upon the name we used- as the days and weeks passed the feeling that it was "right" got stronger as I compared it to other names.

ITA. This was my first thought. I wasnt sure about Mia for my DD but once we picked her middle name, it flowed so well, I knew it was the right choice. Now I cant even imagine her having any of the other names we considered.

When you say the name you used..was the name one of the names you thought you picked or a new name you came up with last minute? Just curious cause I have a name I love (2 names actually) and be feel never will make a choice between them !

Totally new name but it wasn't really last minute. I would say prob around 30 weeks we settled on it. Someone came up to us at a party one day and randomly started giving their suggestions- and there it was, lol.
