I posted a few months ago, and I am back now for more opinions on girl names. Please tell me what you think of the following names. The middle name remains Christine (my hubs' grandmother).
Something to note - my goal is a name that is feminine but strong, a name that is suitable for a girl but also for a sharp, successful woman. Classic and classy.
Thank you!
Avery Christine
Gemma Christine
Laura Christine
Lauren Christine
Blair Christine
I admire the fact that you aren't following the current trend of all girl names ending in an "-y" sound, as in Carly, Caylie, Lexi etc.
I know more boys than girls named Avery, so for me that does not fit the "feminine" criterion.
If the middle name must be Christine, I would suggest a feminine name that also starts with C to give it some personality, such as Chloe Christine or Charlotte Christine. The ones you've listed sound a bit dated from the '80s.
If I had to pick a favorite from the list, I'd pick Lauren Christine.
I like Avery and Gemma. I personally prefer Laurel, instead of Laura/Lauren.
Blair is kinda odd... it doesn't really fit the whole sharp successful type. It is a unique name for a girl and (for me) evokes an image of a pretty, dark-haired girl who's cheery.
Avery Christine - No
Gemma Christine - Double no, just an odd name
Laura Christine - This is ok
Lauren Christine - Again, ok
Blair Christine - Don't like at all.

Blair makes me think of Lisa Whelchel, Blair on The Facts of Life. I agree all the names seem kind of dated/60s to 80s-ish. How many syllables in your last name?
Emma Christine
Olivia Christine
Chloe Christine
Hannah Christine
Sara Christine

Elise Christine (I see you mentioned calling her Elise in your prior post).
Liesl or Liesel Christine
Micah Christine

Lol - thank you for being honest! That's exactly what I wanted. And I don't entirely disagree with the dowdy comment, except with Gemma. I haven't found that one WOW name that strikes a balance between modern and classic. Cara Christine had been on the list, but I felt it was very 80's. Thoughts? Charlotte is soooo popular now, and Chloe just doesn't do it for me. Great feedback though -- thank you so much!
