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!!!!

Camdyn, Cadee, Camber/Camberly, Caiden/Caidyn, Crista, Cora, Crimson. Good luck baby name searching!!
Chloe which means Verdant And Blooming, I think that would be a great name.
baby girl names: Cynthia, Emily, Liliana or sophia
Go for a different name, maybe a different country name, i was born on November and my parents named me STEPHANIE MICHELLE, you can use just one if them if you like, i’m 23 years old right now and all people i’ve known across my life tell me that the combination of names are beautiful (both French) . Congratulations!
Chris is a c maybe with a H hihi or just Jacqueline i like the name hihi hannah ,Helena or harley. Or Christine , cecil ,Cheyenne Christine Heidi Powell. Good luck with finding a name greetings from Holland
I’ve always liked Calista like Calista Flockhart! I loved the show Alley MacBeal when it was on & how her thoughts would become “life like” lol
Well, It’s a unique name you never hear & if I ever were to have another little girl that’s what I’d name her:) my husband & I just decided that our family is complete with my daughter Kadence & his two sons so he had a vesectomy so we def. won’t be having anymore! Naomi is also a beautiful name & I think would go well with your family dynamic! Good luck & God bless
I think you should name your daughter, Caroline, Josephine or Monroe. I hope all the best for you guys :). Love from Denmark 🙂
I would go with a “C” name. I wouldn’t go with a musician’s name that way Matix isn’t left out. Cassidy is a beautiful girl’s name. There’s always Cassie, Cayla or Carly. Cassidy is actually my cousin’s daughter’s name. I instantly fell in love with that name.
I would also go with an C, non musician name 🙂 my suggestion would be Chelsa (chel-sa, not Chelsea) with middle name of Victoria (means “victorious one”) or Elise (means “God’s promise”) so Chelsa Victoria Powell or Chelsa Elise Powell. Hubby and I are in the same situation right now so I’m wishing you all the luck! Once you find it, baby Powell will have the perfect name!
