My friend Cassie is having a little girl and she has her top 3 names picked out,

Avalon Gabriella C___
Marie Gabriella C___
Joliet Gabriella C___ (it's pronounced like Angelina JOLIE + last sound in Juliet)

what do you think? Which is your favorite?

Avalon is gorgeous! I especially love it paired with Gabriella.

I love Joliet...if its just pronounced like JOLIE. But once you add the -T sound at the end as in Juliet.. just makes it kind of awkward for me.

Marie is just so... plain compared to these other options.



Avalon is my favorite :)

I like Avalon Gabrielle :)

I don't mind Marie, nice but is kinda plain. (though considering we sit infront of BNG with a million radical names infront of us, many names go easily plain :P )

I don't like Joliet really at all, sorry :/ Sounds... awkward :0 If its either Jolie or Juliet, I wouldn't mind either :)

GL to Cassie! ~Haddie

I cant really see Marie as a first name. Avalon is not really my style but I could see its appeal. Joliet is adorable and would be my choice of these three options.

I love Avalon. :)

I agree with KatieB. I don't see Marie as a first name at all.

Oh, I don't know if it will change minds but I think it's worth adding, if they go with Marie it would be honoring her(Cassie) because it is her middle name.

Yeah, that makes a difference. :)

I think most people's opinions on names/combos would be different if they knew the story behind it though.

I think Joliet is cute. Just wondering, if she wants to use Marie, why not go with Gabriella Marie? I think the flow is a little smoother that way.

Gabriella will stay the middle name because it is after our friend who died this year.
