Can you help us pick a name?

Hi Ladies,

We are having a hard time deciding what to name our Chat Icon . What are your thoughts? or have any suggestions or spellings all would be greatly appreciated for the ideas.

Thanks a bunch! Chat Icon

PS If we go with Modesta for the middle name (that is my hubby's grandmother's name who is very special to us)

I like Carleigh as a first name. She just sounds like a girl that's fun to know.

Re: Can you help us pick a name?

i like them both but since modesta is a family name, i would use that as the middle name no matter what. i think camryn modesta is my first choice Chat Icon

I voted for Carleigh and like Carleigh Modesta, but I would spell it Carly instead. Just less complicated :)

I think Carleigh will be misspelled for her whole life, and coming from someone who has to spell their first name out ALL THE TIME, I'll be honest and say that I've always hated that. I would go with Carly instead of Carleigh, but I like Camryn also (which may be misspelled also).

I am a huge fan of using a family name or other meaningful name for the middle name so I would use Modesta regardless.

Marie is for me and my MIL (both our middle names plus we just thought it went nice)


Thanks so much Ladies! I truly appreciate it all your thoughts and opinions! I just read them to my hubby ~ he is a little bummed that Charlie is not in the lead (Charlie is a special Uncle of my DH's but he likes it for a girl as well as a boy) Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

How do you feel about the name Charlotte?
That's my friend's daughter's name and they call her Charlie.

ETA: I like the different spelling. Coming from someone who has a different name that I've had to spell my whole life (I've gotten every speeling under the sun including Jerry like I'm a guy, lol). It's annoying but I've gotten over it. My DD has to tell people how to spell her name too (everyone spells it with a C instead of a K). It is what it is.

Yes, LOVING Modesta for this reason and also think it is lovely!!! I'm in the minority but I think Charlie is adorable and so unique... You could also spell it Charlee to be more feminine...
