I just met a Gemma the other day. She was a cashier at the store where I shopped. I don't get giving a girl this name. It's the word for an asexual plant that can reproduce itself or something.

I agree with another poster who said Lauren Christine was the best on the list.

I chuckled over Charlotte being popular now. That's my mother's name, and she is 83. I'll have to tell her!

And the solid and timeless "Christine" grounds it.

Not a fan of Blair - all I can think of is "Facts of Life"

Not a fan of Gemma either. But Jenna sounds lovely and it was never wildly popular - I think it's classic.

Laura Christine is a bit staid, but nice. Ultra classic.

Lauren does not go well with Christine - too much "n" going on.

Other ideas?

Cara Christine
Kira Christine
Anya Christine
Serena Christine
Chelsea Christine

I think that with Christine, a vowel ending is best. I think you are on the right track. I just stay away from names that are, or ever were in the top 10 or 20.

The vowel ending gives you more leeway with the two syllable last name. More melodic.
I like that one! Serena is not an overused name, but isn't too out there, either. Very pretty. Chelsea's a bit overdone. My daughter must have had three or four Chelseas in her graduating class. It was pretty and different when it first came out, but now, meh.

Thanks, all! We have made our minds up, and we actually deviated from the initial list. I appreciate the input!
