I like Jasmine Paige or Jessica Paige.
I'd named both my kids when I was around 36wks... this one though is a little tough, we can't decide or agree... so he'll be nameless for awhile I think.

On the off-topic... when I was engaged I thought it would be nice to have a Christopher Thomas (but then I got a little bro called Chris) and a girl called Evelyn Jane. They never eventuated and I'm not hugely fond of either now - childish fantasies!  But... with the girls we do have, we chose names around 12-20 weeks and except for choosing boys names and girls names, we stuck with what we chose then.

Hahaha from that site:
I think you should respond to more letters. I'm sure you get tons of questions, but pregnant ladies are often moody and unreasonable and can be down right frantic in their search of the perfect name. We need all the help we can get...and you're so great at your job...help out more! Now, what is a good middle name for a baby girl named Riley? My husband likes Bay (or Bae) but I'm pretty sure that's an animal noise. Thank you. (Please don't make me "eat a big piece of chocolate cake")

Oh my goodness! It chooses the name Demetrius if we have a boy

I guess ultimately it depends what you're putting them with. I'm a big one for name meanings, so I've looked some up for you:
Ella=beautiful
Jessica=wealthy/blessed
Jasmine=Messenger of love
Paige=young assistant/helper
Shontel (variant of Chantel)=stone

On the 'Ella' front though, what about something along the lines of Bombshell's idea for her daughter - Ella for a nickname and Gabriella as her name? it's a pretty way to get around there being so many Ella's already... |
yeah that is exactly what we did....and sorry to all the "just Ellas" out there but i wanted her to have a fall back later in life! So to my mum etc she is Gaby / Gabbie and to others she is Ella or Ella Bella! and of course she is always Gabriella!!!
I say go Ella - but go a longer version - my first option (vetoed by DH) was Isabella....Izzy, Iz, bella, or Ella for short! Also Daniella, Gabriella (of course), Donatella, Stella, Estella etc etc.....

BTW Gabriella was named when i was at about 8-10 weeks pregnant...and I told her name to my grandma the week before she passed on....she had nodded approval for both the girl and boys names and there was no way I was going to change either after that! The sydney Ann part came a little later....

I love the name Paige. That was on our shortlist. We named Sam when found out what she was at the 20 week scan. We had Oliver if it was a boy, Samantha for a girl. It was really nice to be able to have that extra bond from early on. Because she was Sam for so long before she was born I can't imagine that she would have been anything else.
In saying that I was supposed to be Rhiannon and when I came out my Mom said I just didn't look like a Rhiannon so became Sterryn instead:)

I love Jessica and so wanted it for caprece but it was my mums next door neighbours dogs name and she was always screaming Jessica at the top of her lungs so it kinda ruined it for us.
I like Chantel spelled like that.
I love the name Annabelle or Annabella

We named ours (both boy and girl names) last week, and hopefully they won't change.

I like Paige but thats my nieces name and she is just gorgeous so I might be a bit bias, her middle name is Yasmine, so I think Paige Jamine would be nice
