A boy and a girl name to match Clarisse

General Name Discussion
1

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all,
[name_m]Just[/name_m] looking for some suggestions to consider. I feel like I go in circles lately with the same few names.

If it helps we have a few names we keep coming back to…
ME: [name_f]Nadine[/name_f], [name_f]Minette[/name_f], [name_u]Blaise[/name_u] and [name_m]Victor[/name_m] (though [name_f]Minette[/name_f] means something unfortunate in [name_m]French[/name_m] slang and I am heartbroken).
DH: [name_f]Matilda[/name_f], [name_f]Tiffany[/name_f], [name_f]Stefanie[/name_f], [name_f]Trina[/name_f], [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] and Evren.

*not in to tons of vowels and super frilly names.

Thanks ever so much, Berries!

I really like [name_m]Victor[/name_m], [name_f]Tiffany[/name_f], and [name_m]Caspian[/name_m].

Suggestions:

[name_f]Nadia[/name_f], has the same root sound as [name_f]Nadine[/name_f] but sounds a bit more like your husband’s list somehow.
[name_f]Blythe[/name_f]
[name_f]Katrina[/name_f]
[name_f]Katya[/name_f]
[name_f]Serena[/name_f]
[name_f]Minna[/name_f]
[name_f]Miriam[/name_f]
[name_f]Ramona[/name_f]

[name_m]Vincent[/name_m]
[name_m]Gilead[/name_m]
[name_m]Ian[/name_m]
Ender

[name_f]Nadine[/name_f], [name_m]Victor[/name_m] and [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] are fine with [name_f]Clarisse[/name_f].

Ideas:
[name_f]Colette[/name_f]
[name_f]Odette[/name_f]
[name_m]Vincent[/name_m]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m]
[name_m]Jasper[/name_m]
[name_f]Ellar[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosamund[/name_f]
[name_m]Edmund[/name_m]
[name_f]Isadora[/name_f]

Let’s try …

[name_f]Sofi[/name_f], [name_u]Izzy[/name_u], [name_f]Sada[/name_f], [name_f]Calico[/name_f], [name_f]Meliora[/name_f], [name_f]Persis[/name_f], [name_u]Keaton[/name_u], [name_f]Dora[/name_f], [name_u]Rudy[/name_u], [name_f]Adelphia[/name_f], [name_u]Sutton[/name_u]
[name_u]Dale[/name_u], [name_m]Patrin[/name_m], [name_m]Bauer[/name_m], [name_m]Calhoun[/name_m], [name_m]Dempsey[/name_m], [name_m]Becker[/name_m], [name_m]Troy[/name_m], [name_m]Stellan[/name_m]

Also, I love [name_f]Minette[/name_f] too and related names. What about [name_f]Minuet[/name_f], [name_f]Minnie[/name_f], [name_f]Minerva[/name_f], Maximina

[name_f]Nadia[/name_f] does seem to match his list better, so I mentioned it to him. He prefers [name_f]Nadine[/name_f]… but [name_f]Nadia[/name_f] is a pretty name.
[name_f]Serena[/name_f] I never considered, though I had thought of [name_f]Selena[/name_f]… will discuss that one! (and [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] too). DH shot down [name_f]Miriam[/name_f], which is unfortunate bc I love the nn [name_f]Mim[/name_f].

[name_m]Vincent[/name_m] is a nice name and so is [name_m]Gilead[/name_m]… I would be more inclined to go with [name_m]Vincent[/name_m] if I didn’t have several family members with the name. [name_m]Ian[/name_m] is DH’s brother’s nickname. (no idea why… his full name is Cristofel).

THANKS!

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Isadora[/name_f]. I have it on my long list.
[name_m]Jasper[/name_m], [name_f]Ellar[/name_f] and [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f] are lovely as well… will be passing those on to DH. THANKS!

I’ve suggested [name_f]Minerva[/name_f] repeatedly but DH just won’t go for it. [name_f]Minuet[/name_f] is on our list, but I am not sure I am brave enough to use it.
[name_f]Meliora[/name_f] is my style, and [name_m]Stellan[/name_m] would be as well. [name_m]Will[/name_m] pass those on

Thanks!

I really like [name_f]Nadine[/name_f], [name_m]Victor[/name_m], and [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] with [name_f]Clarisse[/name_f].

Suggestions:
[name_f]Mina[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f]
[name_f]Adeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Giselle[/name_f]
[name_m]Marcel[/name_m]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m]
[name_m]Adrian[/name_m]

I really like [name_f]Adeline[/name_f], am wondering if it is too popular right now though. We had discussed [name_f]Adelyn[/name_f] (too trendy) and Adilette.

[name_m]Marcel[/name_m] is lovely as well. All of the names on your list strike my style, but those are possibilities. Thanks.

From the yours and your DH’s lists I like: [name_f]Nadine[/name_f] & [name_f]Matilda[/name_f], not big on any of the boys names personally. [name_m]Victor[/name_m] is ok.

Suggestions:
[name_m]Vincent[/name_m]
[name_m]Benjamin[/name_m]
[name_u]Tristan[/name_u]

[name_f]Katarina[/name_f]
[name_f]Marlena[/name_f]
[name_f]Elena[/name_f]
[name_f]Estelle[/name_f]
