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!!!!

I could go on! I just love putting together names 🙂 so pretty!
Brooke or Isabella are both beautiful names also Madeleine ??
Cienna Rae Powell (I personally like to use family names for the middle name so it has a little more meaning, I’d throw in your middle name, a variation of your maiden name possibly or grandmothers name that sounds good with Cienna.)
Cadance, Corrina, Catherine, Ceina, Courtney, Chrissa, Christina, Casey, Cassey, Cidnee,Casatiy, good luck cant wait to find out her name but for sure a C name
Catherine like me ! And with the french pronounciation ^^
(I’m french ^^)
Lots of love for your family!
Lara is nice (my daughter’s name!)
i think you should name her Trinity.. Matrix is kinda from the movie the matrix and Trinity is from the movie the Matrix.. i love the name and i always wanted to name my first born that name!!
My suggestions is Ellie. This is not an M name so it doesn’t make Cash feel alone with the only none M name. It pairs with Matrix since Marley and Cash have a pairing, Ellie is an older Keanu Reeves movie title So you have a connection! I sort of like Ellie
grace.
Cambria [as a girl’s name is pronounced KAM-bree-ah. It is of Latin and Welsh origin, and the meaning is “the people”. Geography name: the Latin form of Cymru, the Welsh name for Wales]
That’s my favorite girl’s name. 🙂
Ciara and Caitlin as well as Catherine are all lovely Irish names, I am an Aussie with an Irish mum and I too have an Irish name, Clare, spelt without an “i” after County Clare. Ciara is lovely, pronounced “ki – ara”, a lovely addition for Cash to have a little sister. All the best.
