Baby girls name which do you prefer?

[indecisivemom2be]

Due in a few weeks and DH and I are still unsure which name to choose if our baby is a girl (we haven't found out gender but boys name is sorted!)

Do you prefer..

Caitlyn Jessica
OR
Jessica Caitlyn

Also any preference on spelling - Caitlyn or Caitlin?! Thanks!

[Sunshiness]

Caitlin Jessica - beautiful!

[HeyDolly]

Caitlin Jessica

[IVflytrap]

Caitlin (that spelling) Jessica.

[AuntieStella]

Jessica Caitlin

(Order of names is divided, but spelling of Caitlin is unanimous so far)

[MadeForThis]

Caitlin Jessica

[indecisivemom2be]

Thanks for the speedy replies so far - unanimous with the spelling of Caitlin!

Funny as I was typing the post I preferred that way myself too. Thank you 👍🏻

Jessica Caitlin

[LoveInTokyo]

Caitlin Jessica.

Jessica Caitlin has an awkward “ca-ca” sound when you say them together.

[Sugarpiehoneyeye]

Jessica Caitlin.

[ButterflyOfFreedom]

I prefer the name Caitlin but think Jessica Caitlin flows better.
Both are lovely though!

[AnyaMoondial]

Caitlin Jessica - awesome name!

[Aprilshouldhavebeenmyname]

All 5 Jessica's at my dd's school are known by Jessica Surname.
Don't love Caitlin but like nn Cate.

[17caterpillars1mouse]

Jessica Caitlin as I think it flows better. However they are both lovely names so I don't think you can go wrong either way

[Sophronia]

Jessica Caitlin

[MatildaLovesBooks]

I’m not keen on either name but I much prefer Caitlin. Jessica is oh so bland.

Caitlin Jessica for me.

[adoggymama]

Jessica Caitlin is my favourite!
But I do love just Caitlin as a name on its own :)

[RedDwarves]

Jessica Caitlin.

I am not a fan of either name (both seem very 80s and 90s to me, and I knew countless growing up) but definitely prefer Jessica over Caitlin so that's my rationale.

[Joeybee]

Jessica Caitlin.
Jessica is a name which kind of died out in the 90's, but is so beautiful and needs to come back.
Caitlin is just dated....not as nice. Also Kate isn't the best nickname.

[HeyDolly]

Joeybee Jessica has been in the ONS top 10 baby girl names for ages. The name def hasn’t died out or is due a comeback - Jessica’s are everywhere! That alone really puts me off the name.

[TheMythicalChicken]

Sorry, but I think they're both dull and dated. Do you have any others on your shortlist?

[BrutusMcDogface]

Caitlin Jessica

[Copperbonnet]

Jessica Caitlin. And in contrast to April I don’t know any little Jessica’s.

It’s a lovely name.

[MariaMadita]

Caitlin will probably need to constantly spell her name. It also seems a bit dated. And there's the Jenner association...

Jessica is a little boring but nice.

Catherine Jessica would be lovely imo. Or maybe Carina Jennifer? (Sorry you weren't asking for suggestions)


Jessica Caitlin is nice imo.
