A sister for Cosima

[name_f]My[/name_f] husband and I have a daughter called [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. Her name was so easy for us to choose but we’re having more trouble this time. We do find girls names easier but we don’t have many names on our list atm, so we’d love some more suggestions as we’re open to completely anything!

We like:
[name_f]Ottilie[/name_f]/[name_f]Ottoline[/name_f]
[name_f]Amelie[/name_f] - Although we think this may be a little to common for us. [name_f]My[/name_f] mother is a teacher and she says she know of around 3 [name_f]Amelie[/name_f]'s under the age of 5 so we’re unsure.
[name_f]Theodora[/name_f]
[name_f]Harriet[/name_f]
[name_f]Juliette[/name_f] - Mainly because [name_m]Cos[/name_m] & [name_m]Jett[/name_m] would be adorable
[name_f]Leontine[/name_f]
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]

We’d love to hear what you think and if you have suggestions then we’ll be more than excited to hear them!

Thank you! :slight_smile:

I think that [name_f]Ottoline[/name_f], [name_f]Theodora[/name_f] and [name_f]Leontine[/name_f] sound wonderful with [name_f]Cosima[/name_f]. The concern I have with [name_f]Amelie[/name_f] is that everyone will think it is [name_f]Emily[/name_f], and there are so many [name_f]Emily[/name_f]'s / [name_f]Amelia[/name_f]'s / [name_f]Emilia[/name_f]'s / [name_f]Amelie[/name_f]'s around, it doesn’t have quite the same sparkle as [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] (don’t take that the wrong way- it’s still nice).

Suggestions: [name_f]Ramona[/name_f], [name_f]Maxine[/name_f], [name_f]Zelda[/name_f], [name_f]Maxima[/name_f], [name_f]Eluned[/name_f], [name_f]Orla[/name_f], [name_f]Oona[/name_f], [name_f]Nolita[/name_f], [name_f]Verena[/name_f], [name_f]Lorenza[/name_f] / [name_f]Laurenza[/name_f], [name_f]Laurentia[/name_f], [name_f]Paloma[/name_f], [name_f]Dominga[/name_f], [name_f]Dominica[/name_f], [name_f]Allegra[/name_f], [name_f]Odessa[/name_f], [name_f]Octavia[/name_f], [name_f]Quintina[/name_f], [name_f]Neola[/name_f], [name_f]Novella[/name_f], [name_f]Henriette[/name_f], [name_f]Junia[/name_f], Juvia, [name_f]Feodora[/name_f], [name_f]Teodora[/name_f], [name_f]Dorothea[/name_f], [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f], [name_f]Juliana[/name_f], [name_f]Fabienne[/name_f], [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f], [name_f]Cornelia[/name_f], [name_f]Cressida[/name_f], [name_f]Capella[/name_f], [name_f]Agnessa[/name_f], [name_f]Bettina[/name_f], [name_f]Bedelia[/name_f], [name_f]Juna[/name_f], [name_f]Viola[/name_f], [name_f]Lucille[/name_f], [name_f]Lunette[/name_f], [name_f]Luna[/name_f], [name_f]Lunetta[/name_f], [name_f]Oriana[/name_f], [name_f]Oliana[/name_f], [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f], [name_f]Aurelie[/name_f] ([name_f]Amelie[/name_f] alternative?), [name_f]Viveca[/name_f], [name_f]Mattea[/name_f], [name_f]Amadea[/name_f] / [name_f]Amedea[/name_f], [name_f]Venezia[/name_f], [name_f]Lilibet[/name_f], [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f], [name_f]Marine[/name_f], [name_f]Fenella[/name_f], [name_u]Flannery[/name_u], [name_f]Araminta[/name_f], [name_f]Marcela[/name_f] / [name_f]Marcella[/name_f], [name_f]Madrigal[/name_f], [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f], [name_f]Frida[/name_f], [name_f]Esmeralda[/name_f], [name_f]Esperanza[/name_f], Ferelith, [name_f]Galilea[/name_f], [name_f]Galatea[/name_f], [name_f]Valencia[/name_f], [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f], [name_f]Geneva[/name_f], [name_f]Genoa[/name_f], [name_f]Ginevra[/name_f], Ginerva, [name_f]Francesca[/name_f], [name_f]Minerva[/name_f], [name_f]Marina[/name_f], [name_f]Valentina[/name_f], [name_f]Delphine[/name_f].

[name_f]Cosima[/name_f] is terrific!

[name_f]My[/name_f] suggestion is:

[name_f]Cosima[/name_f] {and} [name_f]Bianca[/name_f], [name_f]Estrella[/name_f], [name_f]Ginevra[/name_f], [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f], [name_f]Marisol[/name_f], [name_f]Paloma[/name_f], [name_f]Ramona[/name_f], [name_f]Verona[/name_f]

P.S.

[name_f]Cosima[/name_f] {and} [name_f]Leontine[/name_f] from your list is a good match, too!

I like [name_f]Ottilie[/name_f], [name_f]Theodora[/name_f] and [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] with [name_f]Cosima[/name_f]. [name_f]My[/name_f] friend has a Cosi and her sister is [name_f]Marlena[/name_f].

Great names. Would any og these work:

[name_f]Jubilee[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]
[name_f]Athena[/name_f]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u]
[name_u]Calypso[/name_u]
[name_f]Calliope[/name_f] [name_f]Araminta[/name_f]
LuRue ([name_m]Cos[/name_m] and Roo)

[name_f]Cosima[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] &

These are my top three picks for a sister
[name_f]Juliette[/name_f] - [name_m]Cos[/name_m] & [name_m]Jett[/name_m] would be amazing
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]
[name_f]Theodora[/name_f]

You have really pretty name choices. Good luck!

I think all of your choices are too common / mainstream for uncommon and beautiful [name_f]Cosima[/name_f], except [name_f]Ottiline[/name_f] and [name_f]Leontine[/name_f]. [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] is exotic.

[name_f]Theodora[/name_f] is too close to [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], which is getting quite popular for boys. [name_f]Juliette[/name_f] is lovely, but also miles more popular than your DD.

I like previous suggestions of [name_f]Verona[/name_f], [name_f]Paloma[/name_f], [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f].

[name_m]Cos[/name_m] & Ero
[name_m]Cos[/name_m] & Lom
[name_m]Cos[/name_m] & [name_f]Neve[/name_f]

[name_f]Cosima[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is such a lovely name!

From your list I like [name_f]Ottoline[/name_f], [name_f]Theodora[/name_f] & [name_f]Leontine[/name_f].

Wow! Thanks for all of the wonderful replies! I just had a good read through them and wrote down the names that stood out to me and I ended up with:

[name_f]Ramona[/name_f]
[name_f]Paloma[/name_f]
[name_f]Odessa[/name_f]
[name_f]Novella[/name_f]
[name_f]Verona[/name_f] - We actually had this on our list last time but I’d honestly forgotten about it! It’s lovely.
[name_f]Eudora[/name_f]
[name_f]Magdalena[/name_f]
[name_f]Margaux[/name_f]
[name_f]Philippa[/name_f]
[name_f]Odette[/name_f]

Thanks again! And keep them coming, every reply is helpful. I’ll get my husband to read through later and pick out the ones he likes too! :slight_smile:

I’m all for [name_f]Verona[/name_f], [name_f]Paloma[/name_f] and [name_f]Margaux[/name_f] with [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] ! I also really love [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] but for some reason it feels a tiny less striking with [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] than, say, [name_f]Verona[/name_f].
And [name_f]Eudora[/name_f] is delicious if only because of the under-read but amazing [name_f]Eudora[/name_f] Welty, one of the best short-story writers ever!
You’re in good shape !
