We are due with our second baby (gender unknown) November 26. This baby will be younger sibling to our son, 3-year-old Griffin Kenneth Wilson. I\u2019m having the most trouble with girl names, and I could use some help. We have decided for sure that we will use my grandmother\u2019s name, Angela, as a middle name. For this reason, and also because we aren\u2019t really drawn to the \u201cgirlie girl\u201d names, we don\u2019t want a name that ends in \u201ca.\u201d I like the surname for first name trend, and I also like names that are a little unisex. That being said, I don\u2019t want a \u201ctrendy\u201d name, if that makes sense. Here is our current list:<\/p>\n
Emery Angela Wilson \u2013 I love this name but my husband doesn\u2019t really care for it.
Berkeley Angela Wilson \u2013 I actually came up with this one and my husband loves it, but I\u2019ve read some posts online where people hate the name Berkeley for a girl! I think it\u2019s cool. I\u2019d like some feedback on this name in particular.
Keaton Angela Wilson \u2013 Both my husband and myself have names that begin in \u201cKe\u201d (Ken and Keryn) so I\u2019m afraid this would be weird for Griffin to have the rest of us have matchy \u201cK\u201d names (am I overthinking this?)<\/p>\nWe\u2019re really stuck here and I would LOVE some additional suggestions. Don\u2019t even get me started on boy names (although if anyone has some cool boy\u2019s name suggestions that would go with the middle name \u201cStrummer\u201d I\u2019d love to hear them. We\u2019ve picked that middle name in honor of Joe Strummer, who we both love.)<\/p>\n
Thanks a million!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
If you and your husband both love Berkeley Angela Wilson, I think you should ignore the element of “some people hate it.” The thing is, there are some people to hate EVERY name.<\/p>\n
For boys, I like Otto Strummer Wilson and Harris Strummer Wilson and Emmett Strummer Wilson.<\/p>\n

I wanted to let you know that Griffin got a baby sister on November 23 and we named her Harper Angela Wilson. She’s an angel.<\/p>\n
Thanks for all the advice!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
