5 letter girl names

Girl Names
1

Hello! I’m [name_f]Ana[/name_f], I’m a new member at nameberry, but a long-time lurker. I’m due for my husband and I’s fifth child in three very short weeks! I’ll be having a girl. She’ll be joining one sister and three brothers. All of my kids have five letter first names, and we’d like to keep it this way for #5. Our top choice at the moment is [name_f]Carys[/name_f], but we’re not 100% sold. We’re worried it is too close to my son [name_m]Silas[/name_m]’ name. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you think it is too close? What other five letter girl names can you suggest? Middle names?

We’ve never had a problem with names before. We’ve always had a first and middle name decided for at least a month in advance, ready to go to the hospital and confidently bestow it upon our child. We seem so clueless this pregnancy!

Our other daughter is [name_f]India[/name_f], just to give you an idea of our taste.

Thank you!!

Thank you again! I also liked some aside from this but they could be too close to my son’s names, or they could be the names of extended family.

Hmm…
[name_f]Carys[/name_f] is gorgeous but far too similar [name_m]Silas[/name_m] for this sibling set to work efficiently. If I was you I’d use [name_f]Carys[/name_f] as a middle name.
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Carys[/name_f]
[name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Carys[/name_f]
[name_f]Fiona[/name_f] [name_f]Carys[/name_f]

Thank you for your suggestions! I like [name_f]Violet[/name_f], but it is six letters and [name_f]India[/name_f]'s middle name :slight_smile:

I’m really liking [name_f]Lucia[/name_f], but the other pronunciation.

What a great puzzle and what wonderful names your children have! I’m assuming you don’t want to repeat first initials. A few more offbeat ideas that people may not have mentioned:

[name_u]Arden[/name_u] (a bit close to [name_m]Boden[/name_m], a la [name_f]Carys[/name_f] and [name_m]Silas[/name_m])
[name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f]Daisy[/name_f]
[name_f]Flora[/name_f]
[name_f]Margo[/name_f]
[name_f]Marlo[/name_f]
[name_f]Olive[/name_f]
[name_f]Petal[/name_f]
[name_u]Seren[/name_u] (but it starts with S and mimics the n ending)
[name_f]Vivia[/name_f]

15

Ooops, I see [name_f]Clara[/name_f] was mentioned several times – guess it’s a natural sub for [name_f]Carys[/name_f]

16

There is also a Welsh girls’ name [name_f]Nerys[/name_f], though is it the two syllables with the s ending that feels too close to [name_m]Silas[/name_m]?

17

[name_f]Carys[/name_f] and [name_m]Silas[/name_m] are a little close for my tastes

Suggestions to go with your sibset (sorry for repeats)
