Brooke or Paige?

We recently found out we are having a girl!  I've narrowed my list to Brooke and Paige.  I love Paige but DH said he likes it as a middle name rather than a first name.  His favorite is Brooke.  We like Olivia as a mn for either name.  Which would you prefer?  Just trying to get some opinions!  Thanks!

I prefer Paige. Brooke is a nice name but seems a little dated. Congratulations on your little girl :)

Paige. But I don't like Olivia for mn for either name. It just doesn't flow.

I'll take mn suggestions if you've got some that might flow better!

Brooke but I don't think Olivia goes well as a mn.  I love the pic of your son eating a cake pop!  Now I want to take my DD to get one just for the cute pic!

Love both but Brooke is my favorite bc it's more classic. DD would have been Brooke if we didn't have a good friend with a DD Brooke. Paige was also top 5.

Well I am not sure if this helps but our daughter's name is Olivia Paige!   All three names are beautiful and you can't go wrong.  We just added Brooke to our list of middle names for our second daughter to be born this March. 

Good Luck!
