My husband and I have been going around in circles for a baby girl's name. We have a daughter already and lost a daughter at 20 weeks pregnant in December 15, so we have been struggling to be inspired by names due to this.

Last night, having gone through names for a zillionth time, we both actually agreed we love this name, but just working through the spelling. I think I prefer the Adeline spelling (sounds like Caroline) but Adelyn might be softer and more contemporary?? Or Adelyn? Just interested in thoughts :)

Thanks very much

Adeline (sounds like Caroline).
It's a lovely name, Addie.
I don't like the 'Lyn' part.

My name is very similar if I was so to pick I would choose Adeline
