B.P.
Cameron is ok but it's really a boy's name. DON'T pick Camden, please. Camden is the WORST city in NJ. It's a beep-hole, crime ridden, mess. Camille is a gorgeous name is you want to call her Cam.
For a girl. Which would you prefer and why?
Her surname would be Kerr if that makes any difference, and i'd love to hear if anyone has any suggestions of names that have "Cam" as a nickname!

Cami, Camille, Camilla (ok, love the flower, not so crazy about the royal, lol, but it is a pretty name!)
I also love Carmella, Carmi, Carly.
I think both Camden and Cameron are pretty masculine but that's just my opinion :)
I have a boy named Camden, and love it! I would have used it for a girl as well.
Camden, NJ is not the only city by that name. There is a very "southern" city in SC by the name and it is quite charming. :)
My husband and I don't do nicknames, so I can't help you there. Congrats and either name is beautiful!
Cameron is a boys name and the surname of the British Prime Minister and Camden is a neighbourhood in London, England and combined with Kerr they sound like Camker which sounds like canker - a skin disease so I would avoid that if I was you!!
If you really want a C name how about Camille or Camilla or even Carmel, Carmillia or Cleo Amy Mary (CAM). My son is Casper Charlie and he gets called CC as his nickname so you could go this route and pick the first letter as the nickname........Congrats on your new arrival!!
I love Cameron for a girl. Camden sounds more like a boy's name.
The only people I know with the name Camden or Cameron are boys. Camilla sounds like the girl version to me!
Camellia - white chanel flower.
I love both and have seem them for boys and girls. My son is Cameron...and if he had been a girl, he would have been Camryn. We call him Cam though and it is so cute :o). LOVE both names!!
I like Camden, but like the feminine spelling of Camdyn.
Camden is awesome for a girl! Cameron is way over used for a boy or a girl.
I vote for Camden - I know there are girls named Cameron, but it registers as a boy's name with me.
What about Camille or Camellia?
I like Camden :) and as far as it being a city name alot of cute names are cities! Like Brooklyn, Charlotte( which btw I lived here and it's CRAPPY) London just to name a few. I think the name is so cute and people just like to point out the negative about names....
Cameron is a people name. Camden is a place name (apologies to anyone with the name).
I really like the spelling Laurie suggested. Cameryn. I have a daughter named Maysen.. I made it up :)
I absolutely love those names and know close friends and family that used them for girls but they feminized them a little. Camryn...Cameran and the other is spelled Kamdyn. I think both are awesome!!! They are all called Cammie/Kami for short.
Good luck and best wishes!!
I like camila.
Or even Camille
But Camden and Cameron sound like boy names to me
Camden is a place. It isn't a name for people, if you ask me. Cameron is a boys name. In short, I don't like either.
In fact, I think it's funny how many boys names end up as girl's names in American. Ruari (Rory) means red kind in Gaelic. Yet, in America, we give the name Rory to girls.
Camden! But honestly both with the hard C is a little much with Kerr. But I do love the name! I also like Camille, Camilla.
I think Camden is a boys name. I have known girls be to named Cameron, but not with that spelling. If you go that route, I would suggest changing the spelling. I had a student named Kamryn once, she was a girl.
Otherwise I think Camille is nice. Or I had a friend named Camie, she pronounced it "kay-mee" but I noticed folks sometimes called her Cam for short.
It is a middle name for this actress but she is female

My son is named Cameron. Camden is also a boy name. Please don't choose one of those names unless you want your daughter to spend her entire life clarifying that she is a girl! How about Camilla or Cameri or Cambrie?
Neither. They are boys names.
My friends name is Kam...actual name not a nickname and she loves the name and I really like it...
I know a "Camie"....that's her birth name, not a nickname. Said with a long "a".
It's a beautiful name & works well with Kerr.
Not much on masculine names for girls....sorry! It makes life very hard for the boys....
They both sound great with your last name.
I have seen Camryn, as well. (Without the e.)
Camden sounds like a boy.
Cameron a girl.
I like Laurie's suggestion, very pretty and a more feminine spelling. Maybe Cambria, with Cami for short? Lovely little town, that Cambria, btw :)
I like Cameron for a girl. My cousin also used this name for her daughter but spells it differently. She spells it like this: Camryn. Very pretty name and unusual too.
Cam (gaelic) means "man with a crooked nose"!
But Cami is very cute, as is Camryn or Cameryn.
I like them both. I know someone named Camery. I like Cameron better.
I love Cameron for a girl. Camden just sounds like such a boy name to me. We have a good little friend named Camden and he is ALL boy!
Personally I think they both sound boy-ish. But if I were to choose, I'd say Cameron and spell it Cameryn. Nickname Cam, Cammi.
When I saw the subject line, I thought they were boy name suggestions. I was going to say "Camden" for a boy b/c Cameron could go either way. So IMO - a girl would be Cameron.
