Just had my 1st ultrasound (6wk). It's early, but there are two (girls by genetic testing)! Just getting started with the naming. Isis & Asia are their "womb names." (I know it's quirky, but I see no harm in it.) My son is Oliver Samuel. Would like something easily spelled & recognized but not used every day. Some that have caught my ear:

---

Azalea (difficult to spell?, but I LOVE saying it)
Vivian
Elise
Hazel
Sage (as mn only)
Bianca (as mn only)

---

I love the Spanish pronunciation of many names, but not the English (for example: Giselle 'his' 'elle' vs 'gis' 'elle'). We use both languages at home. Azalea appeals to me on this ground.
My maternal gma was Ruby Ester Ferguson Leathers. I would love to honor her, but the only thing I thing I think I could live with is something beginning with her nickname "B".
Thanks for your input. Please tell me what you really think. My friends are nice enough to tell me everything I think of is marvelous.
