I have been waiting my entire blogging career for this moment.
B-A-B-Y N-A-M-E-S!!!!!!!!!
For as long as I can remember my favorite topic OF ALL TIME is baby names. Lauren (my BFF) and I have discussed baby names weekly for the entirety of our relationship and often take guesses (read: place bets) on what we think other people will name their babies. I’ve had a list on my phone since I was in high school. #oops
But now that a baby could come at any time for us can you imagine the floodgates that have opened!? Imagine it. And then times that by 1,000. I think if I text Jeff one more baby name he’s going to back out of the whole deal. Haha!
We are trying to be prepared with a shortlist of girls names and boys names so that we at least have that prepared. I’ve basically been living my life on Nameberry but I know there are one zillion names we haven’t thought of. So who wants to help a girl out!?!?
Here’s the dealio on what we like:
1. We like names that are not too common but not super out there/unusual either. I love a classic that could be re-invented, either for a different gender or with a different spelling or iteration or modern twist. Also love names that sound really kind or sweet.
2. We love nicknames. Really really want good nickname opportunities!
3. Don’t forget the Mindell factor. It’s a tough name to pair things with.
4. My favorite thing to think about when talking baby names is this trick, that I read a million years ago: Picture your friend is setting you up on a blind date and only told you their name. What would you think of them? (So good, right!?)
Now wanna give us some baby name suggestions!?!? Help!! We especially need boy names (can’t seem to agree at all on those) but you can hit me with both boys + girls! Seriously I can’t WAIT WAIT WAIT to hear your suggestions!! Leave ’em below!!!
p.s. Fun fact: If you haven’t noticed, if there is ever a printable/place card/place for a name on the blog where a name is needed, Emma is almost always included. It’s always been one of my faves. 😉
I love that blind date trick!! How about Emory Mindell for a girl…Rory for her nickname!
So cute!!
Ooh, that’s a really good one! Too bad I’m having a boy! We were gonna name our girl Dylan. Natsnextadventure.com
This must be REAL interesting with Jeff and his weird name association uh…talent.
You also have to consider a middle name for when Mini Mindell gets into the glitter…like,
SYLVIA JANE MINDELL GET BACK HERE WITH MUMMY’S FRY COSTUME!!!
or
NICOLAS RYAN MINDELL PUT DOWN THAT DISCO BALL OR SO HELP ME…
Things to consider. And just as an FYI…I heard Calliope is an up and coming baby name. Just sayin’!
You are so right on Calliope! It’s been all OVER the baby name blogs. Way to be ahead of the game!! 😉
p.s. I LOVE Sylvia.
Girl: Darci (my name) no one ever uses it! Or Demi my sisters name! Hollis my nieces name!
Boy: my three sons names are Jensen, James and Jude. So obviously those are my fave! Also love McCoy and Preston!
I have a friend who named her daughter Reverie (the state of being pleasantly lost in one’s thoughts). They call her Rev for short. While a little different, I think it’s really sweet and not too out there.
I looooooove that!!
So pretty!
That is soooooo good.
This is probably super weird bc I’m suggesting my own name, but it fits all your criteria! It’s Tesni (pronounced Tess-knee) but my friends call me Tess for short, and it’s Welsh for “Our Little Sunshine” which totally fits you guys! It’s unusual but not crazy 😂
I love your name!! Also love it’s meaning. So sweet!! My name apparently means war… not nearly as sweet. Haha!
I’ve always read our name means warrior woman! Which I think is much better than war.
Hope about Kelly Jr.? 😉
I was going to suggest my name too! 😂 Only because I don’t know many people with it and people come up with a TON of nicknames! They will start with Chlo and just add on 😂
I guess I’m not the only one to suggest my own name. Lol if you don’t mind the rhyming Gizelle Mindell has a ring to it. Gizelle means honest or promise. Its not as common as Gisele (French) like the ballet. My son’s name is Dante Luca meaning Enduring Light.
Have you hear of the app babyname? It’s like tinder for picking baby names! Both parents get the app and then you swipe left/right for no/yes. When you both like the same name you get a “match!”
We gave our toddler a traditional name, Joslyn, but we call her Jossi. There is a professional (male) skier that goes by Jossi as well – he was the first person we’d heard of with that nickname. I just think it’s a fun, unique name!
How cool! Like tender for baby names!
That’s how we found our baby name! That baby tinder app is the best!!!
This is a genius idea!! Shayla, what name did you decide on?
I love baby names! My fav girl names are:
Jessa
Jade
Anistyn
Averie
Aftyn
Skylar
Veda
Monroe
Maisie
Rilynn
Raelynn
Jolie
Josie
Jaycie
Boys:
Boone
McCoy (nn Mic, Mac or Coy)
Quincy (nn Quince)
Quade
Harrison
Hudson
Dawson
Boyd
Briggs
Brooks
Blaine
Barnes
Banes
Naming children and naming nail polish colours, two if the best things in the world.
Boys Names:
Jacob
Sullivan
Grayson
Theodore
Bradley
Spencer
Jackson
Girls Names:
Reese
Alexa
AGREE! Haha naming nail polishes is my dream career.
A girl can dream right? 🙂
I love Grayson! Great name!!
Yes I love REESE!!
Wren for a girl (Wrennie as the nickname, you could also call her Birdie).
It’s an older name commonly used as a middle (for instance, Jenny Wren). We have a Wren Elizabeth.
I love baby names! We named our son Calvin last year and I LOVE saying it everyday! He also has endless nicknames at the moment: Calpal, calzone, cal capone, calcatraz, california, etc.
My cousin named her son Calvin! Of course, he has a tiger named Hobbs 🙂
WE have a Calvin too! Calpal, Calzone, Calvinator, Calvinasaurus Rex… you name it and we call our kid that. He also has a stuffed Hobbs which I just love.
We have a Calvin too! Calpal, Calzone, Calamander, Vinny. I’m so happy we went with Calvin!
My parents took the 1st date thing one step further– the “presidential test.” Could you hear someone saying “President Jeffrey David Mindell” (spitballing idk his name, obviously)– but yes for that name you could. Anything that’s too rhymey or cutesy it doesn’t work, like Lulu Belle Mindell (strongly not presidential). Nicknames are ok– like Louise Mindell, nickname Lulu is still presidential. It’s always what I think of when I think of names for my future kid
We named our daughter Eleanor for a very similar reason 😉 I love your name!!!
Girls: Emma, Mimi, Sophie/Sophia, Katie/Katherine (maybe that’s too much like Kelly)
Boys: Leo, Jack
I’m partial to my kids’ names.
Our boys are:
Liam Joseph
Kai Emerson
Kingston Jude
Desmond Reese
And my girls are:
Evangeline Skye (Eva, Evie)
Clementine Eloise (Clem, Clemmie)
It takes us forever to pick out a name and we wait to announce it until after the baby is born to avoid any unwanted feedback. I can’t wait to hear what you pick and to see him/her whenever you introuduce us to your son or daughter for the first time! Congratulations! I’ve been rooting for you guys for years!
You win for awesome first + middle pairings. OBSESSED with Clementine Eloise!
I am obsessed with baby names too! Here are the ones I have picked out for all the children I will probably never have:
Natalie (classic)
Margot
Winslet
Olive
Elsie
Emory
Elliot
Fynn
Sebastian
Silas
Emerson
I absolutely LOVE the name Olive! So cute. And Josie and Violet.
I LOVE talking baby names! I’m a fan of old-fashioned-turned-modern names especially.
I may also have a list on my computer that’s been there for years. lol Some of my faves:
GIRLS: Leila, Cora, Haven, Quinn, Polly, Claire, Rosalie, Charlotte (Charlie), Katherine (Kate), Violet, Camilla
BOYS: Collier, Frazier, Foster(<– all family names), August, Harrison, Forrest, Charles(Charlie), Beckett, Deacon, Everett
Ooooh! These are all so good!!
I love love Cora!! And Rosalie! So pretty.
I have a 5 year old Cora! We call her Cora Cat 🙂 Just saw that it is on the list for top baby names in 2017.
Our 2nd place name for Alice was Cora. We ultimately decided it was too close to the name of one of our nieces (Clara), but I still love that name. I always like to look back in our family trees for names – Cora and Sophie were two of my great-great-grandmothers on my dad’s side of the family. If you look back to the late 1800s/early 1900s on your family trees you might find some gems!
Boys names I rrrrrreally like:
Blake
Marco
Ace
Travis
And for a girl I always liked Nicola, that also reminds me of Nico from the Velvet Underground 😘
Love presidential names…raegan…Lincoln…probably wouldn’t do Donald, but you get the hint;)
Hahaha! 😉 I absolutely love Lincoln! Has great nickname potential too.
My nephew is Lincoln! We mostly call him the full-on Lincoln or Link. His big brother is Levi, also a cute one!
OMG!! Well I always think more about boys names cause hopefully one day I want two boys 😀
So, boys:
Damien
Liam
Ethan
Matthew
Joseph
Girls:
Natalie
Aria
Valerie
Summer (I loooove this one)
Soooo glad I’m not the only one who has had a list of names in their phone for years! When I hear one I like I jot it down to make sure I don’t forget! The list just keeps growing! Some of my favorites are:
Girls:
Charlotte (call her Charlie!)
Mae
Penelope (could call her Ellie!)
Mazie
Rosie
Finley
Amelia
Boys:
Levi
Noah
Can’t wait to hear the names you like!! xoxo, Shannon | http://www.prepavenue.com
I have always looooved the name Raelle, with Rae or elle, or Ellie for short!
And for I love Jacob with jake or jakey for short. Also love the name Eli! Could be Elijah and Eli for short.
We have an Eleanor (Ellie) and an Elijah (Eli) haha
One of my favorite topics too! But I think I can’t help you with names. I’m from the Netherlands and a lot of names won’t gonna do it in the US. Not because they are stupid, but we pronounce them different 😉 Example, my name is Karlijn (first) Merle (middle) and my sisters Marlot (first) Maartje (middle) and Merel (first) Julia (middle). But I love to read through all the comments here, it’s so hard to choose! Can’t wait to hear/see your future baby 🙂 X
I LOVE these names! I’m curious, is Marlot pronounced “mar-low”? I absolutely love that one!
Funny that you pronounce it like that! Because everyone outside the Netherlands does 🙂 But here it’s more pronounced like, ugh I don’t know how to explain it. Hmm let me think, you pronounce it like it with a -w on the end and that makes it longer (you get what I mean?), here we pronounce it more final. The -t is the end of the name, I think more how you pronounce Robert? You say the -t out loud right? Really don’t know if I explain it right, but I hope so 😉
But I must say that I love how you pronounce it, a name for my list 😉 XXXX
I think Google Translator does a good job with the pronunciation, click on the little speaker:
https://translate.google.com/#nl/en/marlot
Dutch name over here– Wilhelmina! Seemingly endless nicknames with Mina, Wil, Willie, Meens, Willa. I’ve heard them all through the years.
Another Dutch one here! Although Hester is a very old English name I haven’t met many Hester’s in the US or the U.K. where I live. Not great for nickname potential, my mum calls me happy Hester (happy for short) as I was a super smiley baby apperently 🙂
Hester means star although it’s also the Norwegian word for horse 🙃
For boys love Floris, Sebastian and Tristan.
I also really like ‘boy names’ for girls like Stevie, Avery, Chris, Frankie and Quinn.
Love your name, the Spanish version is Guillermina 🙂
Hi Karlijn, I’m Carlijn! 😀 Fellow-Dutchie. Love my name but it’s a mess when I need to explain it to English-speaking folk. I usually stick to Caroline when I’m in the States.
Congrats 🙂 So excited for your new chapter!!!
Here are the names that were on my list:
Helena (Husband Vetoed)
Clara
Aurore (Husband Vetoed)
Milena (Husband Vetoed.. I wanted my little Millie)
Caleb
Max
Husbands List:
Laura
Philip
We chose Max for either sex.
He is almost 5 months old!
He is Max Edward. If he was a girl he would have been Max Elisa.
We loved the name (just Max, nothing more) because it’s a fun name that everybody knows how to spell. I’m a graphic designer, so I’m the creative one. My husband is a super fun and hilarious guy, so we didn’t want a super serious name for our son.
I come from a family of nick-namers (I am “Doe”… for Dorothy), so we wanted an easily nicknamable name as well, but we loved Max so much. We call him Maxy as a nickname. So, it’s longer. But he seems to like it.
Good luck in your baby name search!!! I just texted my husband one day… “Max?” and he said “boy or girl?” I said “both” he said “yes.” and that was that!
I wish you all the best and I am looking forward to seeing your family grow!! <3
So funny that your husband’s picks were Laura and Philip because that’s mine and my brothers named. I also know two other sets of Laura & Philips! Weird huh? I wonder why people choose those together so often. Also my last name is literally Maxcy. Haha
That’s so cool!!! Funny how that happens. My husband has loved Philip as a baby name for a while and Laura was the first girl name I suggested that he loved!!
I’ve been obsessed with this name for a while now..
Kitson
Kitkat for a nickname
I was thinking it would be my first girl’s name! I love the androgyny of it.
I don’t know why but I kind of love the name aurora and then call her Rory for short
My brother named his 2 dogs after constellations. He’s got Cassie after Cassiopeia, and Rora (short for Aurora). I’ve never heard “Rora” before, and I love it! He nicknamed her Goat because she eats anything.
I love the names
Skydee Jade
Ever Rain
For a boy I like the name teddy
We have a Graham Everett — we wanted something strong and classic. We have been super happy with that choice!
For boys we also like Welles and Ames.
Girls are harder for me! We love Posey, Alice and Iris
Baby names are so fun!! So happy and excited for you guys!!
I love Graham and chose between that and Sam on the boys names 🙂
Can you imagine Sam and Graham as the twins? Ha!
I’m terrible at naming my friend @lilless on IG has Rowdy and he’s the Sweetest! Normally I’d say you’re asking for it with that name but in her case, it worked out.
Ha! I had to think about how those names go together for a while and then I remembered how Americans pronounce Graham! The rhyme wouldn’t work outside of the US, as in other English speaking countries it’s pronounced like “grey-em”.
Im named after my grandmother and now I call her Gram. I had Graham on my list for our boy to name him after her too 😉
We ended up with Max and love it.
Graham is a great name!
Kelly,
Can I just say… this post gives me so much life because like you I’ve obsessed my entire life around baby names! I have a list on my phone, pages upon pages from my middle school/teen years, and am constantly adding! My mom even whipped them out at my recent wedding reception and shared with everyone. 😂 Anyways based on your post here’s some I thought match your criteria!
Girls:
Evan (Evie)
Emma Louise (Emmy Lou)
Emmeline (Emmy or Emma)
Carter
Lennon (Lennie)
Boys:
Bradford (Ford)
Jackson (Jack)
Henry.. just because I love this name and Henry Mindell sounds pretty sweet!
Love your blog, so excited for you both!!
Sarah
OMG haha I love your mom for doing that!! Emma Louise!!! MY HEART!!! Love Bradford with the nickname Ford too!
OMG Henry Mindell, I want him to be my friend.
My first language is Spanish so I always think of names that can be pronunced in both languages, my favorites for girls are Julia and Marisa, for boys I only have Daniel, I love it and I hope to name my, maybe, baby boy Daniel one day.
So much fun! I love the name Finn for a boy, and for a girl Margo and (no lie) I would call her Gogo because I think it’s really cute!
Ahhh this is so exciting!! I absolutely love the name Adelaide and a good middle name would be grace. Her nickname could be Addy grace and that would be. So. Adorable. I also love the name Ezra for a boy. It’s unique but not super crazy and it sounds interesting. My aunt named my cousin Crew Everett and I love it. His nickname is crewton(or crouton😂). It’s different and unique.
My daughter’s name is Adelaide Meriwether Grace!
Ahhh that’s such a beautiful name! I LOVE it! What are your nicknames for her?
I actually love the full name so we just call her Adelaide or nicknames that have nothing to do with her name. Lol. Kook is one of them. 😉 I’m sure as she gets older her friends will start shortening her name though.
Congratulations you guys! This is such an exciting time.
I have 2 older brothers and my parents were convinced that I was going to be a boy, so they wanted to name me after my grandad who had passed away, his name was Alex (or Alec as they called him) so when I popped out and my dad noticed I was missing a piece he fainted (literally hit the floor in the hospital) and they ended up calling me Alexandra so it all worked out the same in the end, minus the boy bits.
So I kind of like the idea of a name that can suit either a boy or a girl too. Im sure names here in Ireland are very different to America so if you want something that won’t be heard that often then check out some Irish names maybe! =D
I’ve always loved the name Penelope for a girl, so you could call her Penny!
For a boy, what about Quentin? You could call him Quin…or Charles for Charlie 🙂 I guess i’m sticking to classics though that you’ve already thought of…i’ll try to think of more inventive ones!
Done with babes here but absolutely love the name Dempsey for either a boy or a girl. Enjoy the journey and giving your new little person! <3
My second daughter is named Dempsey ava, it means proud life, I absolutely adore her name best decision I ever made
We had a few ideas, but when we met our birth parents, we found our name inspiration in their family, with their enthusiastic blessing. It felt right and I know one day the story of our daughter’s first and middle names will have a lot of meaning for her.
I love love love baby names! I always wanted to name a boy Martin. That’s until I met and married a Martinez. 😛 Martin Martinez, maybe not…. but Martin Mindell? not bad 🙂
I also love unusual names, but once again, the last name is a tricky factor for me. I would love to call my kid something unique and ethereal… like “River” or “Sage”… but then when you pair it with Martinez it just kinda clashes… or at least that’s my opinion…
We are expecting our first baby girl in a few short weeks. for her, we chose Valerie. Valerie Martinez … <3 i just love it! and of course her nickname will be Val 🙂
good luck with everything and please do keep us posted! I cannot wait to see your sweet baby pics!!!
xoxo
Karen Martinez
My last name is also now Martinez LOL so I totally understand. We are 4 months in and dying for middle names and Martinez totally can make or break the name lol
I giggled at the Martin Martinez 😉
Love the name nikayla, sounds like mikaela, but a little different! You could call her Nikki for short!
My little girl’s name is Esme (Ez-May) and her middle name is Penelope. We call her Emmy Pepper or Essie. I’ve loved that name since the first I read JD Salinger’s For Esme– With Love and Squalor. I also love Rosie and Clementine.
For boys: Elliot, Theo, Leo, Emille
Baby naming is so fun!
Esme is one of my all-time favorite names! Emmy Pepper!!!!!! I literally cannot handle it. OMG SO DARN CUTE!!
hi kelly! you also have good name kelly. kelly is the most popular and my favorite name and its a unisex name which I got from nameberry. you can check in my url the good middle unisex names.
😛 GSA Blast
ok sure unisex names
I love the name Mason for a boy and Olive for a girl (or Olivia with Olive as a nickname). I named my daughter Jamie Marie after a special set of grandparents, James & Marie. My husband had a family name picked out if we had a boy.
Hey Kelly! It’s very ironic that you posted about baby names because it’s something my husband and I have been thinking about as well and I am actually new to your blog and brand. I literally just started a blog myself and you have definitely been an inspiration for me to do so! I mentioned you in my first blog post! Also! I think you would love my brand! Go check it out! HayleyLinette.com Many of my prints remind me of your awesome clutches!
Back to the baby names!
Mason has always been my go-to for a boy but I think it could be a girl’s name as well! Kinda different but still really sweet.
I also love Violet, Emma, Bailey and Louise for a girl! Bailey is way too close to my name which would not work for me! And Louise is my middle name…it’s very old school but I think
you could bring it back!
Good luck with everything! I wish you nothing but the best 🙂
😉 Hayley
Hi Kelly and Jeff
I am so happy for you !!!!!! and very excited to help you for your Baby-perfect-name-research
😊
Boys : Hadrian, Duncan, // French touch : Arthur, Igor, Théo, Victor, Lucas (pronounced Looka), Rafaël
girls : Olivia ( nickname : livia), Luana (pronounced looana) // French touch : Juliette , Eva, Gabrielle, Alix, Joséphine (Jo)
Lots of love from Paris 🙂
Lise (Liz)
Duncan is adorable!!
I’ve also always been kind of obsessed with baby names!!!! I’m due any day with our first and we’re naming her Rosalie – Rosie for short. Our boy names were Silas, Will and Jack. Will and Jack are family names but I’ve always loved loved loved Will. I have two young cousins names Elyanna (Ellie for short) and Marin (pronounced Mare-in… and really cute with Mindell!!!). We have a friend naming their baby boy Levi, cousin brothers named Ari, Sam and Oliver and another cousin named Parker whose sister’s name is Emelia and I think they’re all super cute…… I mean I could go on haha
See you have the suggestion Penelope nicknamed Ellie – well I’m Pennie but somebody once, long ago, nicknamed me Nell and I just love it! My eldest granddaughter was named Ivy so it couldn’t be shortened or made into a nickname. We call her IvyBoo! And the next one was Mia for the same reasons and we can her Mimi!
I’m a Nell, too! I’ve always loved the uniqueness of it. My full name is Danielle but have always been Nell or Nellie 🙂 I think Penelope is such a great name! For boys I love Sebastian but I have a feeling that’ll be more popular after La La Land. Oliver has also been a favorite of mine
I lover unique names, growing up I was always the only Athena. I actually enjoyed it, it made it easier for me when I was called on lol
So my kids had to have unique names, Aurora Allen and our baby on the way Bodhi Maverick.
My daughter was named after the Northern Lights and her middle name, after my father.
I also love names that can have nicknames,
Charlotte (charlie )
Evelyn (evie)
I’ve always said that if I had kids I would name them (regardless of sex) either Skylar (Sky for short), or (my favorite) Beckett (Beck for short). Hopefully this gives you some more boy names to think about! 🙂
I love talking about baby names!!
I also like to consider how the child could be made fun of when thinking about names. Obviously you want your child to be strong and blow off any bullies, but kids are harsh and use anything they can think of to make fun of others.
I have recently seen a baby be named Maxi, and all I can think of are Maxi pads 🙈 I like the name, but that would make me not want to use it.
I’m sure y’all will pick a great name and I can’t wait to see!!
I have always loved names! Especially Irish names. Since you are called the very Irish name Kelly. I think a good old fashion Irish name would match nicely.
Girls: Sorcha, Aislinn or Roisin
Boys: Declan, Desmond, Aidan, Lorcan
(All of these names have beautiful meanings and pronunciations if you look them up)
My God children’s names are:
Eleri Rose
Finn Michael Edison
Eleanor Grace
My nieces are:
Jazzmyne Grace
Sage Willow
Nephews:
Nicanor
William Taj
Emmett Alexander
Thomas Joseph
My Siblings: (Dad was a hippie) 😉
Shani Lee Serene
Amanda Helena
Tisra Til Amrit
Atheana Mirabai Joy
Diva Divine
Alexander Zen
Hope that helps. Good luck and cannot wait to see what you name your baby!!
I have a little girl named Elliott which could totally go for boy or girl!:)
I also have a 6 year old daughter named Elliot. At first we thought we’d call her Ellie, but it never sounded right, so she’s our Elliot 🙂 Sometimes we call her Ellie-Bear.
i also have a running list of names i love; i also love sharing it with anyone who needs inspiration!
boys (boys names are hard!)!
loring
aubrey
girls!
(these may be too ‘wacky’, but i’m sharing anyway!)
milla
enid
edith
mabel
clemintine
clara
elsie
olive
James
ebba
maeve
You and I are VERY much on the same page. Love every single one of these!
I have an Edith! She was born on my grandma Edith’s birthday. ❤ We call her Edie and it suits her so well!
Ok ok ok I’ll join the fun! How about something super special like the name of the street you had your first home on?
I’d totally name my kid after that.
Obviously only fun if you guys live on a street that’s not a Highway but even “Main” would be cute and unisex. And would totes work with Mindell. Main Mindell.
Love it.
I love Theodore for a boy, I mean it has two wonderful great nicknames Theo or Teddy.
And I love August for a girl. I know it was pretty trendy for boys recently. But it just makes me think of the sunshine happiest girl.
Other great names:
Girl: Willa, Goldie, Pippa
Boy: Llwellwyn (Lou), Ford, Olson (Ollie)
My own kids’ names
Crew Madison
Rosie Blake
Kelly,
This is super exciting! I’m going to go along with Tesni and suggesting my own name. My full name is Mykleanne (Michael-Anne), it’s a fun spelling and different. My nickname is Myki (Mikey) which is shorter. My parents wanted something elegant and different with a cute nickname.
Good luck with your name search!
Myki
Want a British perspective? For boys names I love Ben, James, Connor, Callum, Teddy. Girls names I go for are Eve, Kitty, Carrie, Isabel, Olivia, Primrose. Have you read a series of kids books called The Mice of Brambly Hedge? It’s really cute and the mice are all called things like Dusty Dogwood and Poppy Eyebright – maybe it would inspire you xx
Looooove these! I’ve never heard of those books. Will have to check them out!
I like Julia, Ellerie (Elle), and Penny for a girl.
James, Harrison, and Davis for a boy.
Definitely like:
Everley, Anastasia or Poppy Mindell
Rafael, Gordon or Isaac Mindell
Nicknames for the above:
Leigh, Ever, Stacie, Opy, RAF, Raef, Gord and Zac
Bonus:
Howie Mindell 🙂
Oh, man! You can’t beat Howie Mindell!!!!!! 😂
