Baby Girl Names

This is the hardest part for us! We didn't decide Jackson's name until the nurse literally filled out the birth certificate. sure, we had a couple choices narrowed down. But here's my dilemma...

I can be indecisive when permanent matters are at stake. I could easily say "We have made our final decision on a little girl's name." today... but there would really be nothing holding me to it. I could still change it at any moment before that birth cert. is signed. If I chose a name today - I know I would be second guessing my decision all the way until the baby is born. At least with Jax, once we made the final decision - it was literally written in stone. Believe me, if drove my parents crazy that we hadn't chosen a name... they seriously thought we just didn't want to give it away. (Not true!)

I want to hear YOUR favorite baby girl names. Please, help me out. Searching through online baby name sites is so mind boggling when I don't know where to start. I will say one thing, though. I do like the letters, A and L in a name. I also think names that end with an A are really adorable for girls.

Please help me :)

My girls our Alyssa and Analeigh. We happen to like both of them a lot-lol! They both start with A and one even ends with it.
Congrats on the girl-I have 2 of each and I love it that way and wouldn't trade it for anything-way different from the boys those girls are but so much fun to shop for!

ainsley is one of my favorite as is simone

I don't have kids yet but to use all the names I would like I would have to have like 15 kids :)

Of course I'm fond of Addison (hehe) and we always thought we'd name a daughter Ava, but it sounded too "a" sounding with our last name ending in "a" too.

Here are a few names of girls in my dance classes: Alana, Alaina, Ella (full name- Elizabeth), Averil, Aliana (a-lee-ana), Abigail, Adeliene, Avaliene, Adele (old coworker).

Wow, this one's a toughie! You know I can totally relate! I scoured the 'net and searched high and low until I found Livvie's name!

I don't really have a ton of suggestions for you because I know baby naming is such a personal thing. In spite of that...here are a couple of other A names I liked...Ashlyn, Aubrey, Amberly.

Hope you find a name you LOVE! I know it will come to you guys!!!

hahaha I LOVE picking out baby names! I think it's so much fun!! I went to babynames.com and made my lists from there. You can search by letter so you search for the letters A and L and see if you like any in there. And I think I emailed you some names too a while back.

Here's a couple sites with the L and A names

There was the sweetest little girl at the baby shower I went to this past weekend, her name was Lydia. Which I think fits your criteria! Jax and Lydia :) I'm sure which ever name you choose will be perfect! :)
