I posted a consultation for Gwen and her husband last summer, and I’m so happy to share that their baby girl has arrived and been given the beautiful and long-loved name … Noelle Katherine!

Gwen writes,

“I just wanted to follow up and though I did push hard for a couple of the names on your list my husband and I landed on Noelle Katherine! She was born on her due date 12/5/18. We still haven’t landed on a firm nickname and are just letting time decide (Noey and Noelley are frontrunners … as well as just calling her Noelle 😉 ).”

Noelle Katherine is just gorgeous! It was a combo that was already high on their list before I did their consultation, and it has family significance (Katherine is for hubby’s grandma) and a “special story” in that Noelle is a Christmasy name for a Christmastime baby — both of those elements were important to Gwen and her hubs. They did a great job!

Congratulations to the whole family, including big sibs James and Evelyn, and happy birthday Baby Noelle!!

Noelle Katherine
