A sibling for Sam and Liza

Hi Berries!

I need some help! We just found out we’re pregnant with #3, and baby naming is really hard for us. We disagree on everything! Our son is Samuel (Sam or Sammy) and our daughter is Eliza (Liza). I typically like more traditional names with options for nicknames. Our last name sounds like Rollins.

Some favorites of mine:
Maisie
Cameron/Camryn
Cora
Silas
Joel
Jonathan

Thanks so much!

For boys: [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] (nn Nathan–I found this out recently and it is so cool), [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] (nn [name_m]Don[/name_m] or Donny), I know you know most of these nns so I’ll stop typing them out… [name_m]Franklin[/name_m], [name_m]Bretton[/name_m], [name_m]Gordon[/name_m], [name_u]Callan[/name_u], [name_u]Paxton[/name_u].

I think [name_f]Cora[/name_f] works really well with [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] “Sam” and [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] "Liza – even though it’s slightly shorter and doesn’t have a nickname, the style matches nicely.

From your boys list, I think any of them would work well, but my favorite with [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] & [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] is [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m]. [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] and [name_m]Joel[/name_m] sound a bit too similar, imho, because of their endings, and [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] and [name_m]Silas[/name_m] are alliterative – not necessarily a dealbreaker, but it does leave [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] out. But I like that [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] matches well in style and is also longer with the potential for a fun nickname, like [name_m]Jonny[/name_m] or [name_m]Nate[/name_m].

From your options I really love [name_m]Joel[/name_m] and [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] with [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] and [name_m]Samuel[/name_m].

[name_f]Maisie[/name_f] is a long time favourite of mine with a lot of sentiment to I am completely bias ! But I love the idea of [name_u]Sam[/name_u], [name_f]Liza[/name_f] and [name_f]Mae[/name_f]

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.

[name_m]Samuel[/name_m] & [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] are lovely.

Here are my thoughts on your lists:

Girls-

Maisie-I love this w/your crew & in general. It’s spunky & quirky & vintage & just fun. I do find it very nick-namey though. [name_f]Margaret[/name_f], [name_f]Maureen[/name_f], [name_f]Mary[/name_f] or [name_f]Madeline[/name_f] nn [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] works. I like [name_f]Madeline[/name_f] best w/Samuel & [name_f]Eliza[/name_f].

Cameron/Camryn-I don’t care for this for a girl at all. It’s pretty boyish to me, & also just find the sound a bit bland either way. And it’s a tad rhyme-y w/Sam.

Cora-That’s super sweet & perfect w/Sam & [name_f]Liza[/name_f]. Gives me the same warm cozy old fashioned chill vibe. I think it’s fine on its own, but I love [name_f]Cornelia[/name_f] w/Samuel & [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]. [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] or [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] are pretty as well.

Boys-

Silas-I like this a lot & the style fits in well. Not sure if it sounds too close to [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]?

Joel-That’s sweet. Kind of nick-name-less, but a gentle yet masculine name to fit [name_m]Samuel[/name_m]. Not too over used either.

Jonathan-That fits in fine. Not sure why I can’t get into this one. I think it feels 80s to me or something. I don’t much care for [name_m]Jon[/name_m] or [name_m]Jonny[/name_m] either. [name_u]Sam[/name_u], [name_f]Liza[/name_f] & [name_u]Jack[/name_u] would be really cute. [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] nn [name_u]Jack[/name_u] works.

For a boy, I love your options of [name_m]Silas[/name_m] or [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m]. [name_u]Johnny[/name_u] or [name_u]Jack[/name_u] would be adorable nicknames!!
