Baby Name Suggestions

H.S. asks from Johnson City, TN

Hi Ladies! I am expecting my second child in June 2011. We find out on February 11th what the gender is, but I have a strong feeling that it is a girl. My husband and I have chosen our girl name (it's my husband's great grandmother's name) but we are having a hard time with the middle name. Do any of you have middle name suggestions for the girl name: Callie? I prefer less common names... Our last name begins with the letter S (so initials have to be considered as well). My husband and I like Callie Elizabeth, but are reluctant to use 'Elizabeth' because it is my husband's grandmother's name. I would like to only use one familial name if at all possible. We've already picked our boy name. Any girl middle name suggestions are appreciated!

What can I do next?

Callie Renee, Callie Faye, Callie Marie, Callie Michelle, Callie Mae, Callie Danielle. As for not using a name that can be shortened...any name can be. I have a 3 letter name and people shorten it and/or frequently ask "what's that short for?"

Yes, they can be shortened but who really used their middle name long enough to have it shortened?
Good Luck

I recommend going with something classic:
Helen, June, Marian, Frances...preferably something that ends with a consonant sound, since the first name ends with a vowel...

If you're calling her Callie as her first name, how relevant is it that her middle name not be able to be shortened/made a nickname?

One last thought - if you both like Elizabeth, you should use it - just change it to Elisabeth, so no one is confused that it is a "familial name."

I like Callie Madelyn
Callie Sophia
I have also thought of Callie June (commemorating her birth month, but I do understand if you're not thrilled about doing that, I know a lot of moms aren't particularly fond of that trend!) I just think it has a nice ring to it and at the same time it has a sentimental motivation behind it. Good luck and enjoy your new baby be it a girl or boy!
