Would love some opinions on the girls names we've selected thus far. We're pretty early, but I'm a planner.
My husband's grandmother is Christine, so that's why we've selected that name as the middle name. Laurel is also a family name, as is Cara. Elisabeth is not, but I've always loved the feminity of it.
So...
Cara Christine
Laurel Christine
Lauren Christine
Elisabeth Christine -- we would call her Elise
Also, we have an "L" in our last name... this might make "Laurel" a mouthful?!
Lauren is one of my favorite names..I really like that..but honestly all the names you picked are pretty. I will say, if you are wanting something different, I do hear the name Elisabeth quite a bit, but if that doesn't both you then don't worry about it. Some people worry about it. Congrats...happy for you. :O)
How about Laurel Christina? Actually, I prefer Christine as the first name. Elizabeth is lovely, but I have bad associations with Elise. I prefer Eliza. I had a bff growing up who was a Christine. Everyone called her Chris. And friends named Elizabeth over the years were Liz and Beth. Somthing to think about.
Does your last name begin with an L or just include one? If it starts with an L and you choose Laurel, her first name will often be mistaken for Laura.
I like Elisabeth Christine the best but prefer the common spelling with a Z. Elise is pretty ... why not just Elise?

I love Cara Christine!! Maybe even with Kara instead of Cara... Our daughter was almost Casey Christine so I really like the double K sound...then a friend of mine stole the name Casey and we went a different route.. Lol
Don't give in to others, name your baby what YOU like regardless of what others say.. Within reason of course!!
