I'd go with neither. You're going to date her. Both names are very popular right now and I know three other Kennedy's that are 3 or younger. In the late 80's when The Little Mermaid came out everyone named their daughter Ariel. How cheesy would it be now to be 23-25 years old and be named Ariel?

As far as naming all the kids using even just the same first letter, why? Give her her own identity. Something that she can call her own.

Just my 2 cents worth... OK, maybe just a peso or so.

Oh, and both names are so stripper names.

First name similarity is a fluke. Brooklyn is what we had chosen but it just does not seem to fit. Kennedy is the other name we like. It will be one of the two.

Sometimes they pop out and it doesn't matter what you've chosen previously, it just doesn't fit. Whatever you choose I'm sure she's going to be well loved and a cutie.

By the way, this is a poll. Where are the cheese options? here's a few suggestions:

Brie
Sfela
Skyr
Saloio
Grevé
Sakura

I'd stay away from:

Limburger
Feta
Bachensteiner
Roquefort
and especially Cottage

Good luck!!

Her sisters both start with "Ke" as well if that helps anyone.

I like Brooklyn better anyway, and to me this is just one more reason to go that route. I'm not a big fan of all the kids having "Ke" at the beginning of their names. Or any common spelling/sound for that matter.
 
I don't know if something like this would matter to you, but which name is more popular right now? I grew up with at least one other "Brian" and at least one "Ryan" in my class every year. That **** gets annoying in a hurry. For example, on my daughter's soccer team, of the ten girls, there are two Brooklyn's. In order to not confuse them, one has to be called her last name.

Yeah I have seen alot of Brooklyn's lately but no Kennedy's. Part of the reason we are second guessing the name. It does not have to be unique but I do not want her sharing a name with everyone else either.
