Re: NOTD - Jazz baby names

  • Dinah - love love love.. but it's my cousins name
    Etta - I like it. I feel like Ella is overused so this is a good change. I won't use it though
    Cassandra - like but won't use.
    Louis - good name, but won't use it
    Quincy - not a fan
    Coleman - I like Cole a lot, but Coleman is a camper to me :)

    Dinah - It's cute, but NMS. I also think the poor kid would get teased all the time. Dinah-saur...
    Etta - I'm intrigued by this name, but it wouldn't get used.
    Cassandra - I love this name! And it's old school enough that DH might go for it!

    Louis - Nope. Does not conjure good thoughts.
    Quincy - NMS, although I like it better than Quentin (which DH has on his list...blech).
    Coleman - As in Gary? Nope.

  • The only one I like is Cassandra, but it's my cousins name so can't use it.  Don't care for any other of the others.

    Dinah - NMS, all I can think of is dinosaur. Lol Wouldn't side eye the name though. Etta - Really pretty as a nn. Cassandra - Pretty, but wouldn't use it. Louis - No, NMS at all. Quincy - No, NMS at all. Coleman - No, this to me is a last name only. ETA: WTF nest, why did you clump everything into a wall of text??

  • Etta and Coleman I like, but not enough that they'd be top picks.
    "I said what I meant and I meant what I said, an elephant's faithful 100%" Dr. Seuss, Horton Hatches The Egg. My Ovulation Chart Ttc buddies with LexiMS!
  • Dinah - So cute! (and does no one else think of Alice's cat from Alice in Wonderland??) But couldn't use it. Our last name starts with a 'd' and ends in an 'a'. That's way too much alliteration for me!
    Etta - I don't mind it, but I'm not loving it.
    Cassandra - My best friend's name! Love her to death, but not naming a kid after her, haha.
    Louis - It's fine, but too traditional for my tastes
    Quincy - Not so much
    Coleman - I like Cole a lot (on our short list for boys), but Coleman is a big fat no for me.
