My husband and I are currently in the waiting process of adopting our first child; which means we could have a baby anytime from tomorrow to a year from now…
We have a list of names we like for both boys and girls, and aren’t really looking to narrow down the list so much as to get feedback as to whether or not any of the names work well with our surname – Lee.
I find that our last name is difficult to work with as any name ending in -ly is out, and it can make a lot of names sound like adverbs.
The list of boy names we like are:
Elias
Elliot
Micah
Jude
Asher
Sebastian<\/p>\nThe list of girl names we like are:
Tessa (But not Theresa or Contessa)
Maggie (But not Margaret)
Elizabeth (LOVE the nn Elle)
Ariana (AH-riana NOT AIR-iana)
Adela
Mia
Holly (I know about the -ly ending, but I still like it – am I over thinking the -ly ending thing?)<\/p>\nIf there are any warnings or red flags that strike you on any of these names, input would be ever-so-much appreciated!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The only one that catches my attention is Asher Lee, which to me sounds to much like Ashley. What does everyone else think?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
