We are having a girl after three boys! I always thought I could name ten girls for every boy, that girl names are better but now I’m so lost! We always use a family name for the middle name, we’ve chosen Ellysse, for my sister.
Our boys are:
[name]Graysen[/name] [name]Joseph[/name]
[name]Maxwell[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name]
[name]Everett[/name] [name]Justin[/name]
We like the names [name]Olivia[/name], [name]Mila[/name], [name]Juliana[/name], and [name]Alessandra[/name] but I’m not sure if they go with my boys names. I also recently discovered the name [name]Carys[/name] and think its beautiful, but again I’m so lost I don’t know what I like best. I do not like unisex names for girls, and nothing old fashioned because i grew up hating my name which I always felt was outdated ([name]Diane[/name]). Hubby is leaning towards [name]Aubrey[/name], but it seems trendy and unisex in my opinion. Any advice or suggestions?
Firstly, are you certain that Ellysse, that version and that spelling, will be used? No [name]Elissa[/name], no [name]Elise[/name], no [name]Alyssa[/name], etc?
If so-- a name ending in a vowel will crash into Ellysse, especially an -a ending sound.
Secondly, [name]Carys[/name] Ellysse unfortunately repeats ending sounds and isn’t as elegant as some other options. If you’re open to [name]Carys[/name] [name]Elissa[/name], I think that would flow much more smoothly.
You chose modern, masculine classics for your three boys, and the girls names you suggest shows that you’re drawn to light, lacy feminine names. Again, names ending in an -ah sounds don’t pair too well with Ellysse. (If you switched it to [name]Lise[/name], or [name]Lissa[/name], that would be fine).
I really love [name]Olivia[/name]! I especially love it with [name]Graysen[/name] and [name]Everett[/name]–all three are on my short list, and I think [name]Graysen[/name], [name]Maxwell[/name], [name]Everett[/name], and [name]Olivia[/name] are great together. As I’m pairing my own favorites up, I’ve always LOVED the idea of [name]Isabelle[/name], [name]Arianne[/name], [name]Caleb[/name], [name]Olivia[/name], and [name]Everett[/name] as a sibset, so [name]Everett[/name] and [name]Olivia[/name] seems just natural to me. I think [name]Violet[/name] is so perfect with your boys, too, or [name]Charlotte[/name]? [name]Georgia[/name]/[name]Georgiana[/name] could be nice, too.
These names are great! Most are names that never occurred to me! I’m still trying them out on my belly to see which I will love forever! Thank you for your help!!
I think [name]Mila[/name] [name]Elysse[/name] is quite pretty. Other names you may like to go with [name]Everett[/name], [name]Maxwell[/name], and [name]Grayson[/name]:
[name]Kayla[/name] or [name]Caela[/name] [name]Elysse[/name]
