Help Me Name My Baby!

We've pretty much settled on a first name for our baby girl that's coming, but we're unsure of which middle name to use... Our last name is Guhl, so we've had a hard time picking a name since A names, L names, and G names are out (AAG, ALG, AGG).

Here's our list... Pick your favorite and let me know why.

Annika Rose Guhl

Annika Marie Guhl (my middle name, my initials)

Annika Emily Guhl

Annika Emmy Guhl

Annika Evie Guhl

Annika Mackenzie Guhl

Annika Piper Guhl

Annika Mae Guhl

Annika Sierra Guhl

Annika Cadence Guhl

Annika Imogen Guhl (for my MIL, Jean)

Annika Jordin Guhl

Annika Willow Guhl (for my FIL, William)

Annika Ivy Guhl (my top 3, our best friend's middle name)

Annika Eden Guhl (my top 3)

Annika Eva Guhl (my top 3)

Well, it's a tie for me- either Annika Rose Guhl or Annika Elise Guhl. What beautiful names. Both of them seem to flow very gracefully across the tongue. I also like the fact that your daughter will not have to endure weird spellings of her middle name, like Roze or Rowze or whatever. I know I rant entirely too much, but as a teacher I can't for the life of me figure out why people take perfectly common names and murder them with bizarre spellings. People forever misspell the kids' names, and the poor kids will have to endure this for the rest of their lives.

Guhlia....

This is going to hard to decide! They are a good names!!! It's hard to choose! The only way we decided on a name was b/c I was having Braxton-Hicks contractions from 5 months on....so we named our little guy Braxton!LOL

Teacher....I still kick my self for giving my son two middle name....his dad's 1st name and my last are his middle names....his intials are BDTP!!! Try saying that three times fast.

So I know why you're saying no A,L and G middle names!!!

With total rejection of the name "Goose Gulia," my bet is that when you see her for the first time you will know who she is to be. Happy days ahead for you. Best wishes to you and the grand big sister. :)

My wife and I met rock climbing, and enjoy kayaking, skiing etc. We seriously want to name our kids after Rivers or Mountains. (Kern, Whitney, places that are special to us)

We not so seriously want to give our 1st kid the middle name "danger". Danger is his/her middle name!

I think my mom would kill me.

Ok, I have narrowed the list down a little after discussing some of your suggestions with my husband. It's amazing the discoveries you make when you say a certain name over and over again. I deleted a few of the options in the original post because we decided they didn't flow right or we just decided we didn't like them as much as we thought we did.

Thanks for all the suggestions! Keep 'em coming! I really want to have the name picked out by the time we have the nursery done so that we can personalize little things for her and start the baby book.

Angie, I like the way Annika Marie sounds best and also because it is your middle name.

My grandmother's name was Imogene. You don't hear that too often!

Annika Marie jumps out at me! And I really like the ring to it.

Don't know why. Just sounds right.

Good luck! What a fun time!

I'm not suggesting this for your baby, and I am far too old to have a baby myself, but if I weren't, I would name my baby Lily. I don't know why exactly, but I think it's pretty. I have a student named Journey, and I like that one, too.

We have blue carpet in the nursery, so we're doing a floral theme. Target sells the set, it's pink, cream, and blue with vintage floral patterns on it. Very pretty and feminine.

I'm glad you went with that set, Angie. I thought it was very pretty :D

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much...

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
