    Hi all,
    I gave my husband a list of my top 20 girl names and he crossed them all out. So now, we're back to square one. He wants a classic name that is easy to spell but not common. Kind of like our son, James- James is classic, easy to spell and not many people use it as a first name. He wanted to look at names from the 1800s and early 1900s. Anyways, the only one we both like is Kayla. Any ideas on another? We don't want rhyming or any twin sounding names.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for all the suggestions! Many of them were on my original list but I've added a few and I think I'll keep circulating the list back and maybe one that didn't sound good at first will sound good.
