Shelly and everyone - I'm here and I'm fine. I know I've been quiet, just a weird week here. We are in the process of a soap opera over returning our dogs to rescue after the latest chicken torturing and fence scaling events - I may post about it later. :(
THANK YOU all so much for your baby name suggestions - your lists are amazing!!
I think we have found a contender [do NOT tell me if you hate this name LOL!].
We are thinking it might be "Amelia Veronica".
Turns out St. Emilia is a fantastic, really awesome Saint! She was the daughter of St. Macrina the Elder, the wife of another Canonized Saint [whose name I've momentarily forgotten], and the mother of 9 children - FOUR of whom became Cannonized Saints themselves, including St. Basil the Great [one of the foremost doctors of the Church] and St. Macrina the Younger. [She was our family patron one year when we did our "Draw" on New Year's Day - so she is very special to our family already!].
And DH and I both think Amelia is a lovely name...
We are still somewhat debating Gemma - I go back and forth on it. So, this is by no means the "final" answer, but that's where we are leaning at the moment...
Thank you all so much for your help!

I really love Amelia! In fact I was just thinking of it as a possible name for our hypothetical future daughter.
I love it. It is very classic and beautiful.
I read a book called "Our Only May Amelia" that you might want to check out for your oldest daughter. It's sad but I really liked it (you should read it first to see if it's too old for her). I read it to Katrina when she was about 9 and thought it was a little emotional but she handled it well. I love that name the more I say it. It's really pretty!
