Thanks to my inability to filter this mouth of mine, it is now known that the Powell Pack will be bringing a baby GIRL to this world in November ?. While we are beyond excited (who doesn?t love ruffle buns and bows?), I am totally stressing about one of the most important parts of having a baby: choosing the name!
I am asked on a daily basis if we have names picked out yet. I feel bad answering NO each time, but let?s be honest ? there is some pressure to this decision! A name is important. Once we choose this name for our little girl, she is stuck with it for life ? or at least for18 years, at which point she can go change it if she doesn?t like what we chose. LOL.
Let?s face it: humans are judgmental creatures. If a name is tease-worthy, you better believe that little 6 year old is going to get teased on the playground. What parent in their right mind wants to give a child a name that might add to their risk of getting teased or bullied?
As adults, we also judge based on names. Before we get to know a person, the only bit of info we have to judge by is their name. Some names sound powerful, some sound weak. Some sound prissy, and some sound sassy. Some are boring, some are wacko. As a parent, how can I be sure that the name I choose for this little innocent bundle of joy helps her more than it hurts her?
Oh the joys and stresses of parenthood.
I need your help with some suggestions! Please, please, PLEASE comment here with your baby names. Heck, I?ll even throw in a prize of some sort?I don?t know what yet, but if you throw out a winning name, and you’re the first one to suggest it, I will contact you after the baby is born and send you something awesome ;). Be sure to suggest a first, middle and last name!
Other Things to consider:
Matix and Marley both start with M. Cash is a C (obviously). Does baby #4 need to start with a C? If her name starts with an M, will Cash feel left out?
Marley and Cash both have names that come from famous musicians ? Bob Marley and Johnny Cash. Poor Matix is left out. Will we need to make sure NOT to give baby #4 a name that can be related to a famous musician?
So much to think about. When you share your name suggestion, if there is a significance in why you picked it, be sure to let me know!
Comment away!!!!

You sure have a lot of names to sift through on here, but I thought I would add my two cents. I have a very sweet baby girl I’d like to share her name with you:
Piper Layne
Ok now thinking about it I do think you need an H name. I love the name Hazel. Hazel Arianna Powell. I don’t know why that name just popped up in my head but I love the way it flows when you say it. I also like Hazel Elise Powell. I think the name Harper is over used right now though it is my Grandparents last name.
Matix and Marley
Chris and Cash
Heidi and Hazel
🙂 🙂 🙂
I liked what someone said…2 m’s, 2 c’s, 2 H’s- you need an h name… Harper is good but trending…what about Hadley..hadie? Hattie, Hayden, hazel,
One of my daughters name is SARAYA… but you could spell it CARAYA! She loves her name and NO one has it… 🙂 (until I posted it here haha)
Here are some name suggestions:
1- Charlotte : name original of France means one that is strong
2- Laura: name original of Latin language means victorious
3- Vivian: name original of Latin language means one that has life
I hope you like!
I think it should start w/ a C to even things out. Here are some of my favorites: Chelsea, Cora, Catherine and call her Caty or Cate. Congratulations!
A beautiful girls name is Erinity. Said like Trinity but with Long E sound. alAlsi Lynox! Just a few!
Good luck!
Girl names I would pick are Caroline,Cassandra,Caitlyn,Chelsea,Celine
How about Grace Maddison Powell? I love the name Grace (my granddaughter’s middle name) and Maddison so Matix feels like you guys named her baby sister after her and she is not left out 🙂 Good luck with the decision. I love you guys and what you do for people 🙂 <3…
I love the name Quinn for a girl! 🙂
