Phoebe or Caroline?
Which would you choose? Both are at the top of my list now. DH prefers Caroline, but would be okay with Phoebe. Phoebe is a family name, but if we were to go with Caroline, we would choose a family name for the middle. I'm having such a hard time deciding!

Caroline!Caroline has it all. It's classy, pretty, strong, and sweet. Phoebe has a strange, whiney sound and it just seems like two random syllables--fee bee. It's also really cutesy.

CarolineI think Caroline Phoebe sounds good, if you want to use the family name as a MN.

Phoebe! Phoebe Caroline as a combo would be gorgeous. Phoebe has that something special that Caroline just doesn't have- Caroline is a lovely classic and all, but Phoebe has the great meaning, history and *spunk* that Caroline is lacking. I also think Caleb and Phoebe sound much better together than Caleb and Caroline.
Either way you can't go too far wrong but go with Phoebe!

Phoebe.Phoebe is gorgeous and is relatively uncommon, plus it's a family name which makes it even better :) I don't care much for Caroline, it sounds pretty dated to me but that's probably because all the Caroline's I've met have been older. I vote Phoebe ;)

CarolineI'm biased but I really dislike Phoebe, so even if I were to choose between Phoebe and another name I would still choose the other name. I just dislike the sound an look of Phoebe.

PhoebeI love Phoebe! It's pretty, has a great meaning plus it's underused. Caroline is quite common in some states (Top 20) plus I hate the idea that she could get called Carrie.Phoebe Caroline would be awesome, by the way.

I thought of that, but I can't decide if I'd want to use the other if we should have two daughters. Would Caleb, Phoebe, and Caroline work?
