Loved your choices and Aurora has always been a fave, but after seeing Willow, I fell in love with Elora Danan, but morphed it to Eloradanna, a bit long, but so melodic!

[@CMartin1010]

My husband and I KNEW our daughter’s name was going to be Bailey, we were certain. Got pregnant & ended up naming her Emerson (Emmy). Funny how things change!

[@jodywinter8171]

One of my closest friend called her wee girl Elowen which is Cornish. Pronouned 'el-oh-winn'. It's so pretty and unique.

[@alexandragblessing]

My niece is eliana too 💖 the meaning is so special. And so beautiful to hear the reasoning for y’all after such a trying TTC journey 😭

[@mollyzantene9409]

I’m 35 weeks with a sweet Oliver. We thought we were done with our two kids but we had a surprise pregnancy and found out when the baby was the size of an Olive. We called our babe Olive and I lost the pregnancy. We quickly realized we were not done having children and decided to have another baby, when it was a boy I knew I wanted to name him after our lose because without Olive we wouldn’t have known we needed Oliver. 🫒🖤

[@paigeemcwaigeee]

This is the sweetest thing I’ve ever heard🥹❤️

[@craftylittlethingsuk1995]

Eliza would be pronounced Eee Lie za here. Lovely name.

[@allisoncolla]

Seems Eliana picked her own name 🥰

[@coffeemonster26]

Love these videos so much, and so happy you made one!

[@CarrieRad]

I’m so glad! I hope you enjoy! 💕

[@sweetlife031]

@@CarrieRad - Do you have any special nicknames for Eliana? 🤗🤗👌🏻👌🏻🌈🌈😇😇

[@Tom_McMurtry]

Hey, decent tangent after just seeing Alex's book video; I was wondering if you guys had any good books on Orchards & growing fruit/trees that bear fruit & also storing them for future use? One of my good friends recently has moved to a property that has a lot of fruit trees & she wishes to learn how to care for them & store the produce appropriately. I thought you guys might have some knowledge here! Also this might even be a type of book you both would be great at writing yourself, or indeed a how to guide on homesteading or taking care of a country property if formerly a city slicker/renter or so on. You've learnt a heap that can help others here I think! & have the photography skills to make a gorgeously beautiful book as well. Thanks :)

[@staceymcgimpsey4550]

We always knew what our daughter would be named but had our 2 boys first 😂. For our eldest we each chose a name we both loved and the plan was to wait until he was born to see which name suited him but when I was 30 weeks I decided that he didn't feel like a Toby (my pick) so we went with hubby's pick Gabriel and it suits him so well! We really struggled with our second son, I wasn't sold on hubby's pick & he kept shutting down my suggestions but eventually he agreed on one and that's how we got our Tate. Little miss was always going to be Isobel but when we found out we were having a girl I didn't like the middle names we had picked out anymore so we ended up naming her after my great grandmother for her middle names (Amelia Lee). Naming your children isn't as easy as it seems but when you have that name that's just the perfect fit you feel good about it forever 😊

[@sixtylimes]

your hair looks banginnnn'

[@ameliar3786]

Love these videos! TTC number 2 and we have a long list of names already but I enjoy adding to it

[@hannahvenneman7440]

I love baby names! Eliana is beautiful and suits your family so much. Our 18 month old girl is called Thomasin. It just clicked one day for us too and we can't imagine her as anything else. We call her Thommy for short ☺

[@josefinenytofte5814]

Thanks for such a lovely video! Eliana sounds like the perfect name for her. We are currently in the thick of trying to conceive with the baggage of an ectopic pregnancy last year, and I could just completely relate when you said that you couldn't carry the burden of having control in your TTC journey any longer. I long to give up my control as well but it is so difficult and I don't really know how. It is sadly such an anxious process.

[@yelodie]

Hi there ! Those are all beautiful names and Eliana seems perfect for her. I was surprised you mentionned the name Elodie. I didn’t think it was known in english speaking countries. It’s my name actually, I love it. I’m French and it’s very popular in French speaking countries. Anyway, I hope Eliana will have a beautiful life 😊

[@laylabeth22]

The same thing happened to me, for years I loved the name Ginny and then as soon as we found out we were having a girl it just didnt feel like her name, we named her Lottie which suits us so much more 😊

[@hannah_kerr]

Love this video! I have had a name list for so long, i'm fascinated by names and their origins and meanings. Eliana is a beautiful name and I love that it came to you and just fitted in perfectly. One of my brothers names is Kahurangi which a lot of people think is blue but it also means 'gift from the gods' and he wasn't planned but he geninunely completed our family and god knew that we all needed him. Love all your videos! xx

[@LittleSweettt]

I love Elisa written and produced in Spanish ❤ If in the future we have a girl that will be her name. My baby name is Samuel and now I look at him I know is the right name but we considered Bruno for a while. But like you said he is such a Samuel it couldn’t be other one ❤ Eliana is a beautiful and unique name ❤

[@LilDeadHead1]

awww!!! Adeline is my name! (: every time i tell people they remark at how great it is

[@juliatokiohotellover]

Don't let knowing someone with a name prevent you from using it! I get it if you don't LIKE the person with that name, but just knowing someone with the same name shouldn't prevent you from using it!

[@ninadias5811]

My son's (he is now 20 months) name is Oliver and we have called him Ollie since day 1 :)

[@Charlottejames444]

Eliana is such a beautiful name! And some beautiful other name suggestions too. I haven’t heard you mention about your faith before, are you Christian? Just curious ☺️

[@Katherine-hn1qz]

My 1 year old niece is named Aurora ☺️

[@juliannamarie6298]

Carrie. I’ve been following you and Alex for many years and very rarely post anything, but when you confessed you “prayed” I thought, “oh no, here come the comments about religion! 😂 😂 The way I look at prayer or faith in god is like this. - God has many names and a person might prefer saying. father, mother, or friend because you can picture what they look like. You may prefer a mystical name such as light, spirit, wind, or oneness that help you understand God as something more than you can imagine. you can have a deep relationship with God without ever entering a church or synagogue or mosque. The advantage of being a part of a faith community is that you have people to support you on the journey, but you don’t have to be religious to pray or profess to be part of an organized religion. Just wanted to put my two cents in for anyone asking you if you’re religious because I suspect you have deep faith and are a profoundly spiritual person. ☀️🙏🏼🌸 Bless you, Alex & Baby Eliana. Sending love from California 💕

[@Grumpyfern28]

My husband and I also changed our minds after we had picked out a name many years ago for a boy or a girl. When we found out, we were having a boy this year the name Roland just didn’t fit right for this little guy and we ended up naming him Seamus. We both were surprised we changed our minds but it happens 🤷‍♀️

[@flyingbird9633]

Eliana is lovely. I really like that name, and a couple other spellings of it. If you like Adeline & Eliza , think about Adeliza (historical name). Adeliza sounds a bit modern, but isn't.

[@emilyjimly]

Beautiful name and meaning 💖 I never knew you were religious!

[@Sabbpie]

Such a beautiful name. Congratulations to you guys!

[@analisatrofimuk5686]

Gosh your hair is fabulous

[@MyloVengenz]

I absolutely love the name Emma ❤ and Matej for boy ( Czech variant for Mathias ) :)

[@tiffanypacheco_]

Loved all the names. ❤

[@JackyWacky1]

Adeline is also in my list of baby names for girls 😄

[@debbiewood4105]

Your daughter’s name is lovely. My daughter in law’s name is acacia. It’s a very pretty name but try telling her that. She goes by Kaci.

[@monicaellis347]

Elodie is one of my absolute favorites but my husband didn’t like it

[@korrinawhitworth7032]

Hi Carrie. Do you have a Dante Labs contact? After watching yr video last year about genetic testing so I quickly spent the money and got the test kit and sent it back last June 2023. It’s been sitting in the “sequencing” stage for at least the past 8 months and still no results. I’ve emailed about a dozen times but they keep fobbing me off by saying they can’t give me a time line. And the last three emails have had no reply by them. This is really frustrating as I had to save the hundreds of dollars for the test with no result. I would be greatly appreciative if you help me with this. X

[@nessierey6721]

Eliana is on My List too

[@jodieturnerx]

Love these names

[@angelap32]

Eliana is pretty!!

[@nannajaysadventures]
