[name]Hi[/name] everybody! I’m new here, and I’d love some opinions or suggestions on my list. I’m only at the very beginning stages of the naming process, but I’m glad I’ve found this site. It seems really helpful. Wish I knew about it the first time around! Anyway, we’re sure it’s a girl, and she’s going to be the little sister of [name]Abraham[/name] ([name]Bram[/name]) [name]Eugene[/name] [name]Kennedy[/name]. I don’t have a specific style, other than the fact that I like uncommon names, usually longer with a nickname, but there are some exceptions. My list is already horribly long, but I’m open to suggestions if you think of something you think I’d like. Middle name will most likely be [name]Donna[/name], [name]Edith[/name], [name]Virginia[/name], [name]Martha[/name], [name]Rhonda[/name], [name]Charlotte[/name], or [name]Janet[/name] which are all family names like [name]Eugene[/name]. Thanks everybody!
[name]Adelaide[/name] - [name]Love[/name], but I’m not sure if you want two kids with A names (goes for the bottom four as well).
[name]Agatha[/name] - Cute and uncommon!
[name]Agnes[/name] - I think this is a bit more common than [name]Agatha[/name], but it’s still lovely.
[name]Antonia[/name] - Not a fan.
[name]Araminta[/name] - Not a fan.
[name]Beatrice[/name]/[name]Beatrix[/name] - I much prefer [name]Beatrice[/name]. It sounds much more refined and elegant. [name]Beatrix[/name] sounds devilish and mischievous to me.
[name]Clementine[/name] - Sweet and all, but I don’t like that it’s also the name of a fruit.
[name]Delilah[/name] - Very sweet. Would be a lovely choice if it’s rising popularity doesn’t bother you.
[name]Dorothy[/name] - I love this! Especially the nickname [name]Dot/name.
[name]Edith[/name] - This is okay; it will stand strangely against all the Edens in her generation.
[name]Eleanor[/name] - Cute! It has an abundance of equally cute nicknames: [name]Nellie[/name], [name]Leni[/name], [name]Ellie[/name], [name]Nora[/name]…
[name]Florence[/name] - This is okay. Although, I do really like the nn [name]Flo[/name]. [name]Flora[/name] and [name]Florrie[/name] are cute too. I think [name]Flossie[/name] also works?
[name]Frances[/name] - [name]Love[/name]!
[name]Gwendolyn[/name] - Yeah, this is okay.
[name]Harriet[/name] - Nice and humble. I love nn [name]Hattie[/name].
[name]Helen[/name] - [name]Love[/name]! Dynamic and sweet. Poss. nns: [name]Leni[/name], [name]Nellie[/name], [name]Ellie[/name] as well.
[name]India[/name] - I [name]LOVE[/name] this! So sweet, spunky.
[name]Isadora[/name] - Not so hot on this one. It sounds dry and arrogant to me.
[name]Jemima[/name] - I love this, but it doesn’t have the best associations in the US (not sure where you live though).
[name]Josephine[/name] - Ehh. I don’t really like this; I’m tired of it. Why not [name]Josepha[/name]?
[name]Juliet[/name] - [name]Love[/name]! Romantic.
[name]Louisa[/name] - Cute and short but girly.
[name]Magdalena[/name] - Ehh. I don’t like this. I much prefer [name]Madeleine[/name], [name]Margaret[/name], [name]Marjorie[/name], [name]Marigold[/name], or [name]Magnolia[/name].
[name]Martha[/name] - Cute!!! I would totally use it.
[name]Penelope[/name] - I don’t like this. It’s such a heavy load.
[name]Philippa[/name] - Cute! Especially the nn [name]Pippa[/name].
[name]Roxanna[/name] - Too much. [name]Roxanne[/name] is better.
[name]Rosemary[/name] - [name]Love[/name]! So sweet. This is my best friend’s name.
[name]Susannah[/name] - [name]Lovely[/name]! Sweet and free-spirited.
[name]Tallulah[/name] - ^^ Same with this one!
[name]Viola[/name] - I much prefer [name]Violet[/name], but [name]Viola[/name] is nice too.
[name]Virginia[/name] - [name]Love[/name]!!
[name]Wilhelmina[/name] - I love this, too. The nn [name]Minnie[/name] is adorable.

[name]Hi[/name], welcome to Nameberry, your son’s name [name]Abraham[/name] is one of my favourite names from the Bible. Here are my honest opinions on your name list with my faves in bold. We all want you to find the “ideal” name that blends with [name]Abraham[/name] [name]Eugene[/name] so don’t take any of our comments personally! All the best! [name]Adelaide[/name] - If you don’t mind another name beginning with “a”, then this would do nicely. [name]Agatha[/name] - [name]Love[/name] this underused gem. [name]Abraham[/name] and [name]Agatha[/name] are a great pairing!
[name]Agnes[/name] - It’s ok but I prefer [name]Agatha[/name] much more
[name]Antonia[/name] - OK
[name]Araminta[/name] - A bit too frilly
[name]Beatrice[/name]/[name]Beatrix[/name] - OK
[name]Clementine[/name] - Too cutesy with a strong name like [name]Abraham[/name]
[name]Delilah[/name] - I love this name but I’m not sure it would go with [name]Abraham[/name].
[name]Dorothy[/name] - I prefer [name]Dorothea[/name] [name]Edith[/name] - See [name]Agatha[/name] [name]Eleanor[/name] - Nice
[name]Florence[/name] - OK
[name]Frances[/name] - Maybe in the middle spot as it lacks sparkle next to [name]Abraham[/name]
[name]Gwendolyn[/name] - See [name]Araminta[/name]
[name]Harriet[/name] - NO
[name]Helen[/name] - Lacks sparkle
[name]India[/name] - NO
[name]Isadora[/name] - I like it but not with your son’s name [name]Jemima[/name] - Yes, this is a great Biblical name that pairs well with [name]Abraham[/name] [name]Josephine[/name] - [name]Love[/name] this with [name]Abraham[/name].
[name]Juliet[/name] - A little too romantic [name]Louisa[/name] - [name]Love[/name] this timeless and classy name. [name]Magdalena[/name] - Like it with [name]Abraham[/name] [name]Martha[/name] - Another Biblical name that works well with [name]Abraham[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] - I love this name but it seems different in "feel to [name]Abraham[/name]
[name]Philippa[/name] - OK
[name]Roxanna[/name] - Not my taste
[name]Rosemary[/name] - OK but I think it would be better in the middle name spot [name]Susannah[/name] - This is lovely and a great Biblical sister for [name]Abraham[/name] [name]Tallulah[/name] - Irish name with strong Biblical name somehow strangely works for me.
[name]Viola[/name] - Not a good match
[name]Virginia[/name] - OK
[name]Wilhelmina[/name] - Not a fan
