I can’t believe it but baby #3 is a girl. I was sure it was a boy. I recently asked for advice on girls names as sibling for [name_m]Nathan[/name_m] [name_u]Bennett[/name_u] and [name_f]Susannah[/name_f] [name_u]Marie[/name_u]. I think we may have narrowed it down. We are trying to honor two grandfathers with middle name — [name_m]Lewis[/name_m] and Vito/William/Bill.
[name_f]Maggie[/name_f] (full name Margaret)
[name_f]Juliet[/name_f] (Lettie)
[name_f]Molly[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
I wish [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] worked but the double T ending isn’t cutting it for me. [name_f]My[/name_f] front runner right now is [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] “Maggie” [name_f]Liv[/name_f]. [name_f]Liv[/name_f] means life, as does [name_m]Vito[/name_m], and begins with L.
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Liv[/name_f] “Maggie” is darling! And I love [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] with [name_m]Nathan[/name_m] and [name_f]Susannah[/name_f]. That one gets my vote for sure.
[name_m]Nathan[/name_m] & [name_f]Susannah[/name_f] are lovely. Warm & smart & classic & simple but not over done.
Here are my thoughts on your list for #3:
Margaret/Maggie-I honestly love [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] more in theory than the sound of it. Because it’s such a timeless name, that feels like a feminine yet strong woman. [name_f]Maggie[/name_f] is very cute w/Nathan & [name_f]Susannah[/name_f]. I personally prefer the nns [name_f]Maisy[/name_f] or [name_f]Gerty[/name_f] most, but [name_f]Maggie[/name_f] does feel best w/your crew. I also think that the nn [name_f]Peggy[/name_f] is kind of fun or…Molly! [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] nn [name_f]Molly[/name_f] gets you two of your favorites! [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Liv[/name_f] works, but I think that [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Olive[/name_f] or [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] is much prettier. Although I guess that may not mean ‘life’. Oh, but how about [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Violetta[/name_f]? Also, have you considered [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] nn [name_f]Maggie[/name_f]? [name_f]Susannah[/name_f] & [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] would be super sweet for sisters.
Juliet/Lettie-Juliet is gorgeous. I’m not usually into [name_f]Lettie[/name_f], but I don’t know…I kind of like it today! It feels interesting & fits w/Nathan & [name_f]Susannah[/name_f] well. What mn are you thinking for [name_f]Juliet[/name_f]? [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f]? [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] Louise/Louisa? I think that works to honor, [name_m]Lewis[/name_m], right?
Molly-Molly is darling, but I do find it a bit nick-namey. Especially next to [name_f]Susannah[/name_f]. Not a deal breaker at all. I just prefer [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] (or Maureen) nn [name_f]Molly[/name_f].
Alice-Alice is really pretty. [name_m]Calm[/name_m] & kind & classic. I feel like it’s a tad more popular than the rest of your list if that bothers you, but it’s a great name. I like [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f] or [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f].
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Liv[/name_f] is wonderful! [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Viola[/name_f] came to mind or even [name_f]Margo[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
Thank you! I LOVE the bane [name_f]Sybil[/name_f] and would love it as a first w/ nn Sybie, but my husband is against it. I just think it’s strong but feminine.
Thanks for giving it so much though! I love a lot of the recos on paper but I feel like we are simpler people lol. I have tossed out [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] to my husband to get to [name_f]Maggie[/name_f] and he looked at me like “are you serious?” [name_f]My[/name_f] daughter is [name_f]Susannah[/name_f] nn [name_f]Zuzu[/name_f], so our style does bc a bit more playful when it comes to the nickname side of things. I wish [name_f]Margot[/name_f] was available but my husbands best friends daughter is [name_f]Margo[/name_f]. [name_u]Love[/name_u] the two [name_f]Alice[/name_f] middle name suggestions! And [name_f]Molly[/name_f] is adorable but I feel a little bit that same way about it being not as substantial a full name; it’s by far my moms favorite though and she’s very persuasive lol.
[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Margo[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] It’s gorgeous but my husbands best friends daughter is [name_f]Margo[/name_f]. It’s not common enough of a name I think to replicate it in a small circle
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f] is perfect! I think [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Liv[/name_f] (or Livia!) is a very lovely nod to [name_m]Vito[/name_m]. I wonder if [name_u]Vida[/name_u] / [name_f]Vita[/name_f] or [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] appeals at all? I think [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] or [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_u]Vida[/name_u] would be on par with [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Liv[/name_f].
I love [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] and [name_f]Alice[/name_f] with your family, and also love [name_f]Maggie[/name_f], but just don’t love [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] as much. [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Liv[/name_f] is a good combo though.
Also [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Vita[/name_f], [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f], [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_u]Billie[/name_u]. Would [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] or [name_f]Lulu[/name_f] work as a reference to [name_m]Lewis[/name_m]? [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f].
Oh, but how about [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Violetta[/name_f]? Also, have you considered [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] nn [name_f]Maggie[/name_f]? [name_f]Susannah[/name_f] & [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] would be super sweet for sisters.
