I have my Daughter's Name Picked Out!!! - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I think I like just Jaci Renee Danielle-two middle names...otherwise she'll have a 4 syllable name, with a hyphen and two capital letters which will be a lot for a kid to write out each time. And then...you've got to think of what people will call her..

You might get "Jackie" with the spelling of Jaci (but JACI is my fave spelling of the name, I like it more than Jayce, Jaycee or the other spellings...)

You might get people calling her J.R. if you give her the first name JaciRenee. That's up to you if you're cool with that!

About the Danielle as a middle name, I think it sounds great as a second middle name, but I just want to let you know that just because you promised her you'd use it doesn't mean you're stuck with it. You are allowed to change your mind on this-it will be the name of your child!

I had the same BEST friend for 12 years, we did everything together, told each other everything, kept in touch daily even though we were 1500 miles apart in college, and then, BAM! something happened (don't need to go into it here), but it changed us forever. It's so sad, and it still upsets me, but we don't talk anymore. If I would have named a child after her or after a promise I made her, it would remind me of her and the situation every time I said my child's name, and that would be really hard.

My point is that friends can change, so be sure that you like the name yourself before committing to naming your child that. If you like it just because YOU like it, then the name works great for two reasons!

We don't have children yet, but we have had our kids' names chosen for years! I won't tell ANYONE-not even my family or close friends what those names are-partly because I don't want anyone to use them before I do, and also because I don't want to hear things like "oh my gosh-I went to school with a "NAME", and I HATED her...you can't name your kid that!" and other annoying things like that!

Whatever you end up doing, just be sure you're happy with the name because it's personal to you and your partner-your child will have that name for the rest of her life

My thought is that when she goes through school and has to fill out her name on standardized tests and such they don't have places for hyphens.

When I look at Jayce I would prounce it like "J-ACE"......

another thing to think about....choose the name based on what you will actually call her. My husband and I could NOT agree on a name. I wanted Chase, he didn't like it. We both liked the name Jeremy, so we went with Jeremy Chase. However, our other son who was two at the time couldn't pronounce Jeremy, he said "Jermy", so we ended up calling him Chase. But on all class roles, legal documents, things of that sort it is always Jeremy that comes up and it kinda is a pain for him and for us. If I had to do it all over again, Chase woulda been the first name

oh well, live and learn!!
Oh yeah, when he did start school and everyone called him Jeremy at first, he didn't know they were talking to him

I think I will spell it JACIE and she will either have 2 middle names or I will tell my BF when I have my next daugher I will use Danielle.......or I will just blame it on my husband as the reason why my BF name is not in it LOL

I like it hyphenated. It's easier on the eyes and I think it will be easier for your child to learn to spell when she starts school.
