The names have changed a bit over the years but for at least 10 years I had my girls' names set as Noelle and Charlotte.
I mean, for years and years and years these were in my brain...
Then came the Royal Baby #2!
Princess Charlotte of Cambridge
Came in and spread the good Charlotte name like wildfire.. (Good Charlotte.. 15-year-old me flashback LOL)
I knew then and there my plans had to change.
I love names that are known but not overused, names that have been heard of but not caught onto the trending list... yet.
Now, no one take offence to this!
Charlotte is a gorgeous name!
I think tons of the top names on the trending lists are!
Olivia, Sophia, Emma.
All considered and adorable.
But I am stubborn and determined to find that sweet middle spot.
Don't DM me about Elliott and Noelle, I know they're not groundbreaking in any capacity but I feel like we did get them both named just in the knick of time!
Elliott and Noelle are starting to rise on the list so hopefully, they will go to school with name twins but not be in the same grade as them LOL
*I was going to name my firstborn Elliott whether we had a boy or a girl, that would've been pretty special in 2014 but since then Elliott has risen in popularity for girls.
Onto the list!
