I've posted a couple of times during pregnancy about names. We are now 5 days from my due date and no closer to choosing. DP decided we should each make a shortlist of 3 and they're not anything alike.

Mine:
Alice or Alissa
Lois
Georgia

His:
Marnie
Casey
Piper

One of the problems with Marnie is that we're in the north and he refers to his sister for example 'our'(insert name) so Marnie could come to sound like Armani. Another problem is I just don't like it lol.

A compromise would be Alexa as we both like it moderately but amazon have poached it.

We got talking about boys names this morning and both agreed we like Noah then I stupidly asked if a girl called Noa would be ridiculous. He now loves that.

Sorry this is so long but does anyone have any thoughts about compromise names based on our likes. Or any thoughts on Noa?

I like Noa, do you like Noelle at all? Could be a longer version with Noa as a NN.

Also along the lines of Casey is Carey if you like that.

But I really like Noa :-)

Good luck! Love Noa

Marnie is Lovely, I wouldn't say it sounds like armani, would you consider Maisie?
If not your compromise name Alexa is good but Alissa is better, I see where your coming from with Amazon, what about Alexandra on the bc? Or Alessandra is nice that gives you Alessa similar to your Alissa.

Love marnie and alexa! In few years anazon will have come out with something else so it won't matter!
Don't like noa for a girl though.

Goodluck for the birth!!!
