The Name Game

I am having the hardest time deciding on a name for this baby!
At first I was dead set on Addison (Addy) until I realized that's gonna be close to the top 10 this year. And I'm anti trendy names.
Dan and Scott have decided to name her Lily but I'm not so convinced.
Scott has even picked out a middle name which he tells me every time I try to talk about how I want to think up a different name for the baby. His name for his little sister is
Lily Racecar Baldwin
.
Rolls off your tongue doesn't it?!

But since I'm pushing this kid out I think my vote gets more points- I'm still letting Lily be on the list but I have 3 names that I'm seriously considering that Dan hasn't vetoed. ....

Lily
Chloe
Kara

Each name has different reasons I do and don't like it- Girls names are just too hard to pick!! I'll probably come up with a totally new list of names by the time this kid comes- I'm just having too hard a time making up my mind.

in order from most fav to cute. chloee, kara, lily. i think lily seems little girlish to me so i can't see her in high school with that name. i don't know, thats my two cents.

I like annie's list too. I like Lilly but I know of 5 girls w/o thinking that have that same name under the age of 3...now who's trendy :)
girl names are so fun but yet so hard. I was really hoping for a girl b/c I had my top 2 names and w/ a boy we didn't know what we were going to do. But then the girl came and it wasn't until we left the hospital we finally decided on her name. Poor Kalli

Come on Nicole, what's wrong with racecar for the middlename? I see where Scott was coming from here; it's fun, unique, and everyone will think she is totally cool.

Nicole those are all really cute names my hair cuter persons name is Kara and she is way cute. My best friend in elementary school just named her daughter Chloe...and Austin Leavitt daughters name is Lily...so i have to say all three are really cute. Sorry i didn't help. :)

I know what you;re going through. We still don't have a name yet! We just keep changing our minds. All three sound good with Baldwin, and go with your boys names nicely. Hey, I'll fit either Heart or Unicorn into our baby's name if you use Racecar...let me know :)
