42 inches was perfect!
When researching, I wanted to make sure we were getting a quality item. I knew I wanted her first and middle name, but wanted them to be the same height. We ordered the 42inch in knowing we were going to overlap some and made sure to put a space between the first and middle. It looks perfect above her crib. I ordered the natural wood and spray painted it myself. If you are certain you know the color you want, I would order it already painted. I think mine looks great now but it was annoying to have to stress about paint. We love our purchase!
