Anyone else run into this problem.....?

Hey guys! I was just wondering.....

I LOVE Cassie and Bella for a baby girl, but I don't like Cassidy/Cassandra or Isabella/Annabelle/Arabelle...... Has that ever happened to you? I'm not quite sure what to do about it. I really want to use those names, but I just can't see myself giving a child a nickname as a full name kind of thing. What do you guys think?

And do you like the names Cassie and Bella, btw?

    I like Cassie and Bella as nicknames, but not as full names...too cutesy and unserious for an adult, professional woman.

    I hate Cassidy, but love Cassandra! Another alternative is Cassia...it's the feminine of the Roman name Cassius.

    Other alternatives for Bella are Mirabel (an obscure, old-fashioned English name) and Christabel (from a great, haunting poem by Samuel Taylor Coleridge). You could also use Isobel/Isabel/Isabelle...less common at the moment than Isabella.

    I love Cassandra, Cassidy and Cassie so I'm biased. I would choose the longer name simply because your child may want to use Cassie or Cassandra when she is older and in the business world.

    No offense, but Belle, Bella are so Twilight and so common, along with Isabella. I personally don't care for the name but I like Anabelle.

    Cassie is one of my favorite names!! Bella is really cute too :] I say use that as their names. Doesn't really matter if it's considered a nickname. Good luck!!

    yep same with me on both those names lol

    I love Cassie because its after my cousin I havent seen in years and Bella is cute but I hate Isabella and the other names that have Bella in it

    I like both the names Cassie and Bella! Very cute.

    If you wanted to use both of them, you could create the name Cassabella.

    I would go for Cassie....Bella is too common especially with twilight. You want your child to be an individual.

    i've got had an identical concern attempting to order a "burger, no burger" some places because of the fact I particularly needed a cheese sandwich. At Taco Bell I merely order the stuff that purely comes with beans interior the 1st place. what's even worse is calling fairly pink meat on your bean burrito 0.5-way by using.

    I like bella. I always have wanted a little girl name Lorelei...

    I think you should do what you want to. We named our boys Mark (nickname Boo Boo (LOL)) and Daniel (nickname (Little Boo).

  • YES!

    I love the nickname Kate but not Katelyn or Katherine!

    I also just like Joseph not Joe or Joey.
