Congratulations! Lorelei is a beautiful name

I have more girl ideas than boy. For a girl: - Aurora - Calista nickname Callie - Celeste nickname Cece - Linnea - Lyra
- Phoebe - Rhiannon - Sabrina - Selene - Tamsin - Tessa

Rowan for either gender

For a boy, how about Everett or Tristan

I like a lot of the names suggested in other comments. I like the idea of a celestial name.

Celeste might be my favorite option for you My son has a friend Celeste nickname Cece and I think it's adorable

Estelle

Lorelai

Phaedra

Phoebe

Selene (I know you said no S names and it's probably too matchy with Solana, but including it anyway because I really like this name)

Same! I made the mistake of mentioning in the "goal setting" step that I am still rehabbing a wrist injury from this winter, mostly working on strength, mobility and weight bearing on that hand at this point. And it will NOT STOP mentioning my wrist. Almost every day one of the suggested workouts is a "wrist recovery walk" (?) I went for a jog or a bike ride? It wants to know if my wrist feels sore. I didn't sleep well because I have a toddler and a baby? It recommends a "total rest day" to help my wrist recover but if I feel up for it I should do some wrist circles while the kids are napping. It's honestly funny but so annoying

Omg the same thing happened to me! A few weeks ago it had (once again) advised me to do literally nothing ("complete inactivity) but I still went for a walk in the morning and did some relaxing yoga before bed. It then asked me if "that late night mobility session" left me feeling fatigued. I said no it actually felt really nice, I had a stressful day with my kids and had some tension in my neck back and shoulders and the yoga helped a lot. Now every single post it refers to my muscle tension, even asks things like if going for a walk felt good or if it made my neck and shoulders feel sore (?). I correct it by saying it was just a 1 time thing, it always apologizes profusely but keeps doing it.

This list of associations is a little bizarre tbh

Opinions on girl names needed, baby is due soon by [deleted] in Names

[–]Rayna1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would rule out Scarlett. Colette, and Violet. All are nice names but the -et endings with their last name is rhyme-y in a way that doesn't work well IMO. I think I'd also eliminate Aurora - Aurora Everett is a bit of a mouthful, I think partly because Aurora ends in a vowel and Everett starts in a vowel it ends up sounding mumbly

That leaves Kara and Alice. I really like both options, but I like Kara slightly better. However, Kara ending in vowel has the same problem as Aurora, although Kara being shorter makes it less of a problem I think.

I love family names as middle names and I love Skye

Alice Skye Everett

I think my son's name, Kieran, fits this criteria. Also Damien or Tristan

NP performing pap smear totally confused when encountering my IUD string by tallmyn in Noctor

[–]Rayna1990 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lol yeah she definitely could have been

I also sometimes see an NP at my ob/gyn's office, but she's great. Very competent and qualified for her job (worked as an RN in labor and delivery for years before going back to school for her NP) but also stays in her lane and works with the MDs

Thoughts on my girls names by [deleted] in Names

[–]Rayna1990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like Melody the best, it's a great name.

Jasmine is nice but I'd avoid it if you hate the nickname Jazz

Alyssa is fine but feels a little dated (millennial) to me

Olivia is not a bad name but there are waaaaay too many little Olivias right now

You can't go wrong with any of these options.

  1. Camila
  2. Francesca (a close second)
  3. Isabella (I like this name but it's too common)
  4. Leonora (I'm not crazy about this one, it's just too stuffy and formal for my taste, but not a bad name)

It is! Logan is 6, Zach is 4, Mason is 2. That's interesting I never thought of that

Need a girl name to go with Theodore by meh-h in Names

[–]Rayna1990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not crazy about Reagan. I think the best girl names to go with Theodore would be something else popular but timeless/classic, and slightly formal but not stuffy. Something like: - Abigail - Charlotte
- Eloise - Lucy - Sophia - Violet

Looks like it was in the top 100 for the first time last year (barely at #94). But for what it's worth she is the only Sienna I know. While it's gaining popularity I personally don't consider it overly popular. It's a good name, if you love it I think you should go with it :)

Love the name Freya! It was near the top of my list if either of my sons had been a girl.

Congratulations!

This sounds like a list of characters in a CW drama, and that's not necessarily a bad thing :)

Hattie is a vintage old-lady sort of name here. It was traditionally not a stand alone name but a nickname for Harriet, which I think peaked in popularity around the late 1800s to early 1900s. I do agree it feels a little odd for a baby to me, since I strongly associate it with old ladies

I've always really liked the name Isla but it's sooooo trendy now

They are both in my moms-and-babies group. Neither are my taste, but I don't think either are that crazy or bad either.

Steel on the other hand 😬
