Birth is 2 weeks away and I need help! I have no idea which girl names to choose! These are a couple of the options but I'm open if you have more suggestions.

Here is what I've come up with:
Kate Lorraine
Julia Lorraine
Charlotte Lorraine

My 1 1/2 year old daughter is Abigail.

My next door neighbor's little girl is Cate...short for Catherine. I think it looks really pretty spelled with a "C". Just an idea :)

Congrats and good luck!!

Voted for Kate. We had discussed naming our daughter Julia and ended up with a slight variation in the name Juliana.

I love them all! Though maybe Kate in 3rd place since it is more of a nickname, but then again maybe not. Sorry I am not much help at all!

I love Kate. My second vote would be for Charlotte.

I voted for Charlotte because I like the idea of using Charlie as a possible nickname for a girl when she gets older. However, if you don't like that, it might be a reason not to choose Charlotte. Although you can obviously just not call her that. I'm not sure how important popularity of each name is to you, but after working in a kindergarten classroom last year, I know that Kate and variation of it are very common.

I voted Julia; it's a pretty-sounding name with Lorraine and "Abby and Julie" sounds really cute to me.

I voted for Charlotte, because I think it sounds best with Lorraine, but Julia is actually my favorite of your first name choices (I' just don't love the flow with Lorraine). If it were an option, Julia Charlotte, would actually be my favoriite.

All 3 are great-tough choice! Lorraine was my MIL's middle name, so I have a soft spot for it- I've always thought it was so pretty and feminine. :)

I voted for Charlotte Lorraine. I would have voted for Katherine Lorraine if it had been a choice, wasn't as keen on Kate Lorraine as a given name (love it as a nickname though).
