So I am looking for some just-in-case name ideas. In case the name we have settled on doesnt suit at the hospital or something. Last minute jitters I guess.
Mns [name_m]WILL[/name_m] be [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f].
I am looking for something folksy, nature based maybe, elegant over cutesy. [name_m]Pagan[/name_m] probably.
Golds and yellows, autumn and winter over spring and summer.
Looking forward to hearing your ideas x
[name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Amaryllis[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Aurelia[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Viola[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Marigold[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
Thank you. I love [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f], and I quite like [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] but a close freind has a [name_f]Maggie[/name_f] so those are out. I like [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] very much.
Not aure what you mean by folksie but here goes:
[name_f]Melody[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] pearl
[name_f]Alida[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Autumn[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Briar[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Regina[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Primula[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Alba[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
Chrysalis [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_u]Arden[/name_u] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Twyla[/name_f]/ [name_f]Twila[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
I’m thinking of names but if you really like [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f], [name_u]Noli[/name_u] and [name_f]Nola[/name_f] are both legitimate nicknames (to avoid confusion with the [name_f]Maggie[/name_f] she would be growing up around).
I like [name_f]Nola[/name_f] and when I tried to find a longer name for it, [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] came up as one of the options.
I prefer cutesy names so I’m trying to think up more solid suggestions
I like the suggestion of [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
[name_f]Mirabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Christabel[/name_f]

[name_f]Rosamond[/name_f]
[name_f]Lilith[/name_f]
[name_f]Avalon[/name_f]
[name_f]Heidi[/name_f]
[name_f]Willow[/name_f]
[name_u]Rowan[/name_u]
[name_f]Briar[/name_f]
[name_f]Clover[/name_f]

Best of luck! Out of interest, what is the name you think you’ve decided on?
Some beautiful suggestions thank you. The name we have decided on is [name_f]Autumn[/name_f] (or [name_m]Silas[/name_m]). I hear [name_f]Autumn[/name_f] is fairly well used in the US but that is not the case in the UK.
I love the following suggestions for “back up” names (or a future child)…
[name_f]Astrid[/name_f] and [name_u]Artemis[/name_u]
[name_f]Heather[/name_f] (this is really growing on me)
[name_f]Meadow[/name_f] (long time love but DH hates it…)
[name_f]Marigold[/name_f] (new crush)
[name_f]Maribel[/name_f] and [name_f]Cristabel[/name_f]
