tntgoodwin Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Liberty Justice Goodwin? If not, feel free to suggest other middle names that start with J. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Journey Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I hate to say it, but I don't care for it. I'm sorry. I love the name Justice for a girl though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jec3113 Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Liberty is cute. She can go by Libby. The Justice is too much. I would pick something more traditional for the middle name that she could use professionally if need be as an adult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kokotg Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I like Liberty (nn Libby?), but I think pairing it with Justice is overkill. Jane. Liberty Jane. Oh...I know why I thought that. I know someone who used those names together. But with Nora as a first name and then Jane and Liberty as her two middle names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Liberty is adorable. I love Libby for short. I would go with a feminine middle name. Elana? Jessica? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tntgoodwin Posted July 4, 2011 Author Share Posted July 4, 2011 Yeah, dw is concerned it might be too much, even though we love both names. My thinking is middle names aren't really known for most people. Most of the time it would just be Liberty or Liberty J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plain jane Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Liberty Jane. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink Fairy Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I like either name on its own, but together it's too much--sort of like a theme restaurant. I think Liberty Jane is cute though! Congrats, btw. :party: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BakersDozen Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 For me I can't tell if the baby is a boy or a girl because Liberty is feminine (IMO, of course) and Justice is masculine (again, IMO). I have to agree with the others that both names together is a bit much...sorry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiguirre Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 How about Justine instead of Justice? It's close but doesn't cross the line into overkill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caitilin Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I like both individually, but I think together they're a bit much. And really, who needs the pledge as part of her name? ;) Liberty Jeanette Liberty Juliette Liberty Jenna Liberty Josephine Liberty Jane Liberty Juliana Hmm, running out of J names. I think either a one-syllable or a three-syllable name sounds best with Liberty and Goodwin. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovin Learnin Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I like Libby and Justice, but not together. If you need a "J" name for the middle name how about one of these: Jana, Jill, Jessa, Jinger, Joy-Anna, Johannah, Jennifer, Jordan, or Josie? :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: Sorry. When you said you wanted a "J" name it was all I could think of. :001_smile: p.s. - I did have to look all of those names up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ester Maria Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 It sounds like a bit of an overkill to me too. Liberty Jane, or Liberty Juliet, on the other hand, sound nice to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonshineLearner Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Liberty Joy :) Really, because Liberty is a bit of a fad name right now, I'd choose a middle she could go with, if she doesn't care for Liberty. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunD Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I like Liberty. At my first job ever I met a very nice young lady named Liberty, and I thought her name was great. A word middle name is overkill, though. A middle name may not be commonly used, but I wouldn't really want people to giggle when they found out. Liberty Justine has a lot of the same sound without doing the "two words" thing. You could also try Liberty Juliet, Liberty Joan, Liberty Joanne, Liberty Jacqueline, or Liberty Josephine.

tntgoodwin Posted July 4, 2011 Author Share Posted July 4, 2011 By the way, this isn't for the current baby we are awaiting, her name will be Savannah Juliet. This is for a hypothetical 4th girl.

Cindyg Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Unless she's born on the 4th of July, I'd pass. (I had no idea Liberty is a fad name. It doesn't seem like a people-name to me. More of a horse name. Like Savvy. Or Freedom. Or Spirit. Or Pride.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleIzumi Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I have a "values" name. I wouldn't. The jokes get really, really old. :glare: I REALLY wouldn't with the middle name combo.

Chris in VA Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I'm so sorry, but I don't like it at all. I agree it sounds like a good name for a horse or other animal. Not to be mean... I will say Justina is my mom's name, and I've always thought it pretty, but to me, it's a harsh name--not in the way it sounds (I think it's sonorous), but in the way it stands for untempered justice.

DarlaS Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Lorelai has been on our short list (along with Liberty and Trinity). I like the way you spelled it better. I just made that up.

fhjmom Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 How about "Jae" for the middle name? That is Littlest's middle name because I wanted to use my maiden name (starts with a J and a common female name) but DH didn't like it. So then I suggested just "J", as in the single letter. He agreed but only if we spelled it out, hence the "Jae". We spelled it with an "e" instead of a "y" b/c I thought it more feminine and my middle name is "Rae" with an "e". Now I love the name "Jae" for a girl, even though Littlest goes by her first name (which I love, too). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margo out of lurking Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I like both individually, but I think together they're a bit much. And really, who needs the pledge as part of her name? ;) :iagree: I like both names too. I wanted my ds's name to be Michael Jackson LastName because I liked the way those names sounded, but dh said absolutely not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiana Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 (edited) Imagine if your surname were Ferrell. :P How about Jane, Joan or Joanna (Libby Jo sounds cute), Jeanne, Jill, Jocelyn? Edited July 4, 2011 by kiana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom in Michigan Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I of course Love it :D We have a Liberty, she goes by Libby most of the time though. Her middle name is Justine. We never even thought about the name until she was born 3 weeks before her due date on July 4th. ETA: I do think Liberty Justice is too much though, dh thought of that for her middle name then but i thought it was too much together so we went with Justine.

Pretty in Pink Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I'm not generally a fan of virtue names. I think Libby is an adorable nickname though, and paired with Josephine or Johanna she could go by Libby Jo. How cute! I wouldn't go with Liberty Justice. It's just too much, IMO. Then again, I once suggested Rain as a middle name to someone on this board considering November for a first name, and I'm sure a lot of people would find that completely obnoxious. I really like it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Florida. Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Maybe it's just because I'm as old as dirt ;) but when I hear Liberty as a name I think of the old movie theme song about "The man who shot Liberty Valance".

Janie Grace Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Overkill, for sure. Makes me think you are either VERY patriotic or Vision Forum types. But even if you ARE one of those, I'd go with a different middle name. LOVE Liberty Jane!!! Liberty Juliette? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tntgoodwin Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 Can't use Juliet (or variations) or Joy. Not really fond of Justine. Jane perhaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
