One of our unused girl names was Alexandra. My daughter has really taken to that one. Most of the also-ran names I talk to her about she is happy to be without. But Alexandra seems to be a favorite. She likes the idea of being a girl "Alex" but not a girl "Charlie" (for Charlene) or "Sam" (for Samantha). For some reason I really liked those tomboy/old world name combinations. I also love Meg.

I like the names, Angie. I like Alexandra a lot and always have. I like Alex and Sascha for Alexandra. Dh's brother's name is Alec, which I also like.
My mil says that she wants names that she can pronounce.

That's why I love my daughter's name Alexia - (prnounced uh- lex -ee- uh). We call her Lexi, Alex, Lex. I love that it has so many nicknames, but it is only 6 letters long. I love that it can be a cute little girls name - Lexim and also she can shoose her preference for what she wants to be called as an adult Alex or Alexia. I love that she is the only one in a room, but that people can pronounce it too.
Right now when her two year old self tries to say her name it comes out as Akeeja.
Love that name!!Heidi, PA-S1 - wife to an orthopaedic surgeon, mom to Ryan, 17, and Alexia, 11.

I don't know why I didn't think of this earlier, but my grandmother had triplet sisters named Wreatha, Leatha, and Leda. Feel free to take those names.

I like Chloe, Zoe, and Phoebe. Of course I don't know if you're planning on doing the 'rhyming' thing (not my fave) ... but each of the names are good along. DH has twin cousins named Shalini and Malini ... I was just so upset that they'd done the rhyming thing even with Hindi names.
I also love Ruby Jane. A Hindi name I considered (but haven't needed) is Elina (which means 'a woman of intelligence'), and Maya (which means 'God's creative spirit). Sandhya is also beautiful (pronounced SUN-dee-ah), but is my SIL's name so I could never, ever, never, ever use it.Comment
