Ok so our first dd was due yesterday and weve decided to call her Anna, but we cant find a middle name, DH likes Ann Ivy, and im not sure? Ivy has no special meaning to him he just says he likes it,and i think it would be nice for her to know her Daddy took an interested and picked her name, but ive had no positive reactions to the name Ivy, my mums midle name is louise and my middle name is louise so my family keep saying Anna Louise? Im open to any name though if i like the sound or/AND meaning.

what do you guys think? any other name suggestions? or should i go with ivy/louise?

thanks

I really like Anna Ivy!

I love the name Anna although slightly biased as I have a dd Anna who is almost 10 months...her middle name is Kathleen after my Grandmother as I think it's lovely to use a family name as a middle name.

I also think Anna Louise or Louisa are both beautiful

But the others we thought about were:

Anna Beth
Anna Elizabeth
Anna Katherine
Anna Zoe

We decided to go down the family name route though...and thought we might use Beth or Zoe for dc2 so we're glad we didn't use them as middle names now!!

Louise is a pretty name how about Louisa as i dont think its good to burden a child with too many middle names!
