I need help with a name. Hopefully you guys won't mind doing this for me. We are just having a helluva time. Now if I post my last name my husband will probably leave me for dead somewhere so please keep in mind our last name is Italian, it is 4 syllables, starts with an S and ends with an 'ee' sound. I know that doesn't help much but it's the best I can do.

We are going to be using Margaret as a middle name after my husband's Grandmother.

Please try to take into consideration the possible nicknames and all that. Thanks guys!!!!

I definitely love Sophia and Isabella but it does seem like they are the two most popular names these days. i can count five little girls with those names already!

Not to confuse you more, but have you ever considered Lucia? (Lu-se-a)? My girlfriend just had a baby and named her that and she had also love the other two names. You can call her Lucy for short. Just thought I'd throw it out there...

Isabella is pretty but know that it is growing in popularity very quickly. There are LOTS of little Bellas running around - Isabellas, Gabriellas, etc.

I voted for Lola Margaret.

Good luck with your name selection and congratulations!

I like a shorter name with a longer last name, so I voted for Lola (for some reason, I love that name-it seems so feminine to me).

I think you can also go with Isabella, like Isabella Rosselini (sp?) thats a great Italian name

I voted for Isabella, but I'm biased...it's my friend's daughter's name. We call her Izzy for short.

All of the names you listed are pretty...

Wait 'til you have your little one in your arms for the first time. You'll know what to call her once you see her!
