Which spelling for a girl do you like better?
I have 3 daughters also, Bailey, Madi (Madeline) and Macy...i was thinking that maybe Madi would be the only one ending in a I if we spelt the name Avery, does that really make a difference?

For a middle name do you like: Avery/Averie Charlotte or Avery/Averie Elaine or Averie/Avery Hope better?

And for a boy do you like Liam George or Ethan George better?

Avery. I have actually liked Avery way before it was popular and I'm totally bummed that it's so common now! I hate the spelling Averie. I think I like Avery Elaine better. I like the name Charlotte better, but Elaine flows better. It's a tie for Ethan and Liam for me.



And I would never name a boy Avery. It just sounds like a girl's name.



btw: you are so lucky to have such a big family. What a blessing :-)

I prefer the spelling Avery and it's a pretty name in my opinion :o)



I think out of your middle name choices, Avery Elaine flows the best.



Liam George and Ethan George sound about the same to me. I'd go with Liam though because Ethan has been in the top 5 names for boys for about 5 years now - Liam is less common.



Good luck and congrats!

Avery is masculine? What? That's like saying Taylor is masculine.



I like both spellings...lol. I might pick Avery to avoid other people mispronouncing it. I like Avery Elaine- that is a feminine name and beautiful.



I like Ethan George better. I also like Liam but not with the name George.



I don't think it makes a difference that Madi is the only one ending in i.

I love the name Avery...That was one of the names I had picked out for my baby #3 but I decided on Lillian! I love the spelling with a y Avery! Avery Hope is so pretty!



I love Ethan (its my youngest sons name) I Personally like Ethan Liam the best but if you want to name on after George (your hubby) than I would him Ethan Liam!!



Congrats!!

I think Averie is a better spelling for a girl - it makes it look more cute and girly imo plus it goes w/ Madi

i like the middle name Charlotte - adds a little extra class to it :)



Liam George is my fav boys name



Congrats and Good Luck !!!

Averie Charlotte is pretty. I actually know several girls named Avery, but I like your spelling better.



I kind of prefer Ethan George. Liam is Celtic, and George is more of a classic British/American/German name.

Averie



It's different, and much prettier I think. Hope is a great middle!



I like both Liam and Ethan, not too keen on George, and definitely not together. Maybe Alexander? It works for both first names...



Anyway, Averie is beautiful, and not too common. Maybe it is, but I haven't met anyone named Averie. Or Avery.



Another is Angelena. :)

Avery Hope. (My niece is named Avery Faye so I'm a little partial).



As for the boy's name, I like Liam George better.

Avery Charlotte, i think it sounds so pretty.



It can go either way, it's cute on a boy, it's cute on a girl. Some people are just rude, ignore them..



For the boy, Liam George.

Neither! Avery is masculine. How about Elaine Charlotte / Charlotte Elaine?



Ethan George.



Add: I'm not complaining? You asked which spelling I like better, and I said neither. It's my opinion, and I have a right to state it if you ask the question.



Add 2: Just because some parents decided to slap a masculine / surname on their feminine little girls, doesn't mean it's unisex. Avery is masculine sounding, therefore it should be used on boys. Peyton and Mackenzie are also masculine and surnames.

I think out of that selection, I like Avery Elaine. I like Avery spelled with a -y. Also, I like the name Ethan better than Liam.



Mandi- MaKenzie is FAR from being a masculine name! That's ridiculous. In fact, any "Kenzie" I have seen as a male is ashamed of his name.

Avery is masculine and I don't think it is nice on a girl at all. Just my opinion, so whatever you like. Charlotte Elaine instead?



I really love the name Ethan, so Ethan George.

I agree with Mandy.



Avery is a masculine boys name. There is nothing feminine, girlie or unisex about it.



I don't like either spellings for a girl.
