I'm 4 days away from the due date and found out yesterday that the beautiful name I had picked out for my baby, has been taken by someone (kind of) in the family. First off, we don't know if its a boy or a girl and we have a boys name picked out. But the girl name was Zoe Nikole. Found out that my brothers' dads' girlfriend (they've been together for a long time now) has a 2 yr old granddaughter named Zoey Nicole. I'm so upset! I want a really rare name, and I know the older ones aren't used much anymore. So, help me out please!!!

LOL. My great-great grandmother`s names I know Margareta - she came from Sweden Eliza Carolina- my 12 year old daughter Caitlyn Rose came damn close to being named Caroline Rose sort of after my dad Charles Ralph Maisy - short for Margaret I think My great grandmother`s names: Nora Daisy- - sometimes she was called Dolly Myrtle Hilda My grandmother`s names Irene Elizabeth -- was called Bessie LeMoise -- shortened it to Lee and moved Moise (pronouced Mwoss or Mwah) to her middle name. LeMoise`s sister is Marcella - not my grandmother obviously but as LeMoise died when I was nine she has been like a grandmother. Agnes Victoria -- technically my dad`s stepmom after Bessie died but the only grandma I knew. Bettie Louisa -- my mom`s stepmom from the time I was 11. My husband`s grandmothers and some great grandmothers: Fern Evelyn Kristina Ida Rose Genevieve My kids` grandmothers: Sue (not Susan or Susanne -- Sue -- but when she went to put her full name down for things people wanted to change it to Susan. She was LeMoise`s daughter so I am guessing my grandmother wanted to give her children more simple names) Bonnie Rae

Alma and Clara Belle, somehow I doubt you will be using either ;-).
You can have a lot of fun with this though, it shows the popularity of names form the 1800s through today. You can just put in a first letter or so and see if anything was really popular before and not so popular now. Just put things in at random and see what names come up!

Like for "Z" names: Zelda, Zella, Zelma, Zetta, Zita, Zoa, Zona, Zora, and Zula were all popular in the past but rarely heard now.
BTW in 2005 Zoe was the 58th most popular name

I'm going with Reese. I love it. But my grandmother's name was Evelyn Ella Frances. I thought about Ava Lynn, my middle name is Lynn and together it sounds like Evelyn. I also think Ella is kinda cute. My other g-ma's name was Ruth.. just not crazy about that. My husbands are Lillie and Diane. They are both nice names. If you are looking for an older name, you can't go wrong with Emma. I love it, but it's also very popular. Please just don't name her Grace or Claire... there is too many. Whatever you choose, I think that Nicole makes a nice middle name. I think it would be okay for you to stick with that! Ava Nicole is pretty.
Best of luck picking a name... I assume that you have a boy's name picked.

My family is blended so there are all sorts of grandmas...lol. I will tell you all I know...
My maternal grandma is May Elaine...called Elaine for whatever reason.
Great Grandmas on that side are Mary and May
My paternal grandma was Mary Autumn
My step-grandma is Janet
My other step grandma is Heidi
My hubby's grandma is Beverly
Some of the other names that are in my family of the older generation are my Aunt Sonia, Aunt June, Aunt Rosie, Aunt Jeanne
Anyhow I hope some of these help. I know a few are really nice names. I am 33 weeks along and we are using Elaine for our little girl to be's middle name.
Good Luck and CONGRATS!!!

I can't imagine that your brother's dad's girlfriend would be *that* upset if you happened to pick the same name as her grandduaghter. If you only just found out about the name similarity, the kids will probably not be seeing much of eachother anyway.
As far as my Grandmas' names: Erma, Alma, Minnie, Delores, and Josephine.
I would stick with Zoe Nikole. : )
