Adeline and Theodore?

[name_f]Do[/name_f] you like the combination of [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] as a sibset?

Our one-year-old daughter’s name is [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] and we’re 99% sure we’ll be naming her baby brother [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Jude[/name_u]. I’m 38 weeks pregnant, so he’s due to arrive any day now!

Her NN is [name_f]Della[/name_f] and he will more than likely get [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] while he’s little, then [name_u]Theo[/name_u] when he’s older.

We are hoping that this combination has that “vintage” name appeal, that it gives you visions of a little old lady and a little old man :wink:

FYI our surname is two syllables long and begins with an M.

Thanking you xx

Sounds like it’s all settled to me!

I happen to love [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Jude[/name_u] matches quite well.

[name_f]Della[/name_f] and [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] are adorable, and very vintage chic. I honestly would have chosen [name_f]Della[/name_f] as the nn for [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] myself, and [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] is certainly a standard and handsome decision for [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] ([name_m]Tad[/name_m] being my only other preference).

I think you need not look, since your choice is spot on. But, if you want a last minute alternative for the delivery room both [name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_u]Seth[/name_u] and [name_m]Solomon[/name_m] [name_m]Joel[/name_m] are vintage firsts with a stunted but traditional middle. Nicknames Rett and [name_m]Sol[/name_m] would fit the quirky [name_f]Della[/name_f] as well.

Though, my advice is to stick with what you have and ignore my alternates. :wink:

I think the names sound great together!!! Stick with [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] for sure!

Absolutely adorable sibset!

Absolutely perfect together! Please go with [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Jude[/name_u]. Both names do feel meant to be together. Best of luck on your delivery and Congratulations!

Those two names are so clearly meant to be siblings, how gorgeous they are together!

Thank you, thank you! What lovely feedback that was for me to read! I really value the opinions on this site, so to hear that you all like the combination warms my heart :slight_smile: Now all that’s left to do is wait, yipee!

I love [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] as a sibset! I also adore [name_f]Della[/name_f] as a nn- most people (including myself) immediately think [name_f]Addie[/name_f] when they see [name_f]Adeline[/name_f], [name_u]Addison[/name_u], [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f], etc., but I much prefer unique and creative [name_f]Della[/name_f]. Good luck with your new little one!

[name_m]Just[/name_m] a bit of an update, albeit, a belated one! I was just flicking through some of my old Nameberry threads and came across this one. I wanted to let you all know that we did end up naming our little boy [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Jude[/name_u]. He gets called [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] and it suits him perfectly. [name_f]Della[/name_f] and [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] are the best of friends and we are super happy with our name choices. If it weren’t for all the great ideas here on Nameberry, who knows how I would’ve come up with our sibset! Anyway, thanks for taking the time to reply to my posts, it really helped! :blush:

Oh, congrats! Thanks for the update. I was just seeing this thread and coming to comment “do it -they’re perfect together” and I see that you did! :slight_smile:

[name_f]Della[/name_f] and [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] are super cute, great job!
