986.0. "Girls name with Lyons?" by WMOIS::LYONS_S () Fri Jun 30 1995 19:31

    
    
    Looking for suggestions for girl's name to go with Lyons.  My husband
    and I have no problem with a boy's name, but we can not agree on a
    girl's name.  I have noticed that some of the girl's names I like have
    an L in the middle and can be a tongue twister with our last name or
    even sometimes to sing-songie.
    
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated or even your thoughts on
    the following:
    
            (what would you suggest for middle names for these?)
    Olivia
    Stephanie
    Courtney
    Kathleen
    
    Thanks in advance,

    I like all the names you have on the list... 
    even though Olivia has an "l" ... I think it's fine because the "l"
    is early in the name (not at the end, like say Emily or Michelle for
    example).
    
    I don't know why, but Monica popped in my head.  It was a name my
    hubby like when I was pregnant (had a boy).  It sounds good with
    your last name.  I really like Courtney a lot.  Here's some ideas
    for combinations ... 
    
    	Olivia Renee Lyons
    	  "    Nicole Lyons
          "    Taylor Lyons 
    	  "    McKenzie Lyons
    
    	Stephanie Rose Lyons
    	  "       Nicole Lyons
          "       Paige Lyons
          "       Taylor Lyons
    
        Courtney Renee or Rose Lyons
    	   "     Robyn Lyons 
           "     Marie Lyons
    	   "     Frances Lyons
           "     Alesia/Alicia Lyons
    
        Kathleen Rebecca Lyons
    	   "     Diane Lyons
    	   "     Renee Lyons
           "     Ashley Lyons
           "     Amanda Lyons
    
    
    Best of luck in the naming game!  So what's the boys name?  My husband
    and I were the same way, had a boys name - no questions about it, but
    girls names we couldn't agree on - to the last day (thankfully, we 
    didn't have to make that decision, we had a boy - Mitchell Dean).
    
    Keep us posted as you narrow your list.

986.2Courtney Amanda?WAMMEY::MEHRINGFri Jul 07 1995 21:087
Oops, I guess I should've read this one first...

Actually, I love the sound of Courtney Amanda Lyons! Or Olivia Kathleen Lyons.
Or Stephanie Jayne Lyons...

Good luck in the search,
-Cori
986.3Olivia Brooke LyonsAXPBIZ::MEHRINGMon Jul 10 1995 21:1612
    I thought of a nice middle name for Olivia - Brooke. I think it sounds
    really good with Lyons too.
    
    Let's see, a few more:
    
    	Olivia Kay Lyons
    	Olivia Tami Lyons
    	Olivia Zoe Lyons
    	Olivia Francis Lyons
    
    Not an easy one... Good luck!

986.4Boy's name was easyWMOIS::LYONS_SWed Jul 12 1995 16:2314
    
    
    Thank you for the suggestions.  I have really been working my husband
    on excepting the name Olivia.  I don't know why, but I really like it. 
    I like some of the middle names that were suggested as well.  Maybe he
    would go for it if I chose Olivia Kathleen?!  We'll check that out
    tonight!
    
    Thank you again,
    Serena
    
    p.s.
    
    If it's a boy....Christopher John   (C.J. Lyons)
986.5Hmmmmm...FOUNDR::PLOURDEWed Jul 12 1995 20:3410
    Christopher John (C.J.) Lyons  ... what a nice name!  How come it's
    always easier for a couple to decide a name for one gender than for
    the other?  My hubby and I were the same (had a boy's name, no 
    questions asked - but couldn't agree on a girls name).  Huh...
    
    Good luck - keep us posted as time goes on and you narrow the choices.

    Well, it's been almost a year and I've been out of this conference for
    just as long.
    
    RE; -1
    
    We did go with Kathleen Olivia!  And it fits her beautifully!  We had
    the names narrowed down to Courtney Elizabeth and Kathleen Olivia.  She
    came really close to being named Courtney but then when we had our bath
    lesson with the nurse (how to care for the umbilical cord, etc. etc.)
    she screamed all through it and her Dad thought that Kathleen matched
    her "Irish temper" better!
    
    She'll be a year next month and she's the most beautiful little girl in
    the world! Of course I think I might be a little bias! :)
    
    Thank you again for those who had helped out.
