Thank you Dianatiger and sambchop! You're right, Marigold is our preference, but we are truly torn after bringing it up to people. If people, in general, think the name is so ridiculous and "dumb," as one so delicately called it, what will an employer think? What will her peers think? Will people assume based on her name alone? This is what's been keeping me up at night. I'll be super interested what other people say about the name good or bad. I appreciate your input. Sam, I really like how you said that "Stella" doesn't leave an impression like "Marigold." I feel the same way. Stella is pretty but Marigold sounds elegant and cool to me. I like your ideas: Maristella/Maristela, I'll run it by my husband. My baby is very likey to be a redhead like me and my son. How cool would a curly redheaded Marigold be? *Swoon*

Also.. sorry about my typos everyone! I'm the typo queen. :). Also.. please feel free to give me a reality check if you guys dislike Marigold or just prefer Stella.
