suggestions for baby's name?

Question

I thought I had my next baby name all picked out. I wanted Jordyn Mackenzie-Lynn Bloom for a girl and Jackson Lawrence Bloom for a boy. We have a son named Gabriel Alexander Bloom. If we had another boy the names we decided on are family names, it we were to have a girl these are just names that I really liked, but Lynn is for a friend.
Now I am not so sure for the girl's name. I like the names Astra, Astrid and Evelyn. my old neighbor named her first daughter Evelyn and I have loved it ever since, she went on to have a Marlon and then an Arianna. 3 babies in just under 3 years. I don't think I could do it myself. Anyway, back to the baby names.
I just don't want to have a dozen little Madison's running when I call my child on the playground. I don't want a popular name, but I don't want something that will be too hard to pronounce for the child.

I had thought about Ashlyn when I was pregnant with Gabriel. I like the name but I too have been hearing it more and more often. I heard the name Astrid in the movie White Oleander. I used to see a woman with her 2 daughters and I remember the one girl's name is Astra. I like the name so much I named one of my hamters Nova Astra many years ago. My husband's names are Shaun Stephen Adam and mine are Janine Michele. Mine wasn't popular when I was younger, but once I got into high school there was 5 Janine's all around the same age. Shaun is a well used name still. I had thought about Trinity Robyn using my sister's name for the middle name. I never asked her how she felt about that though. I like different, just not crazy.

So far in my son's generation on my side there is Destiny Skye, her mother's older and younger sisters both have a girl each which I don't know their names, Donna Jade, Gabriel Alexander and Kaylie Jean. On my hubby's side there is John-Oliver Otto, Brandon, Bradley and Alexander Nicholas. Everyone on my hubby's side is hoping for a little girl next because the last girl was nearly 21 years ago. Then again our son was the first boy in my family in almost 25 years. Maybe we can get lucky and break the streak on both sides.

Answer 2

I had a boy. If he was a girl he would have been Paige Ryann. I hate Astra and Astrid. Evelyn too old lady still. Agree with you on the Madison era.

Answer 3

One thing to remember Always go by what you decide on. never let it up to someone else. because later you might say I don't like that name and it will be to late. Go by what your gut is feeling.
When both of my Daughters were born I only had boys names picked out. Zackery Micheal. David Jay. Well when we saw our daughters 16 years & 11 years ago the names came to us. Christina Marie my husband loved that name, & Elizabeth Ann named after both Grandmothers middle names. you will know when your little one gets here, don't stress yourself out about it. if the name you pick out doesn't seam to fit you will have one when you see him or her. Sure both of my Daughters have comen names but I love them just the same. Christina has 3 or 4 friends that come over that are named Christina and I call them something different so they don't all answer and so do there parents.
The names you have already picked out are just fine, If you like them!!!
I hope this helps out some. Sorry I didn't give you any names. But that should be up to you.

Answer 6

I like Astra Celeste together. I think Evelyn is beautiful; maybe Evelyn Faith? I saw the name Traeh (tray-ah) the other day. It is heart backward. Not 100 % sure what I think of that one yet, but it sounds cute and isn't common. Good luck!

Answer 7

I think the name Isabelle Kirana Bloom is just right for your baby girl. Not too exotic, nor too common. Hope that I have helped. Whatever you named your baby, I'm sure it'll sound beautiful.

Answer 8

Aspin, Gage, Ariana, Lany, Thomas, Treston, Trent

Answer 9

I like the name Astrid that is easy to spell and it is not a common name at all

Answer 10

Seren (star in welsh) as you like Astra which sounds like a star name, Seren is unusual and easy to say.
Seren Haf ,pronounced -Harve means summer star in welsh. GOOD LUCK
