Already Thinking - Humor Me 😏

Had a baby two weeks ago so of course I’m thinking of names if we ever have another :laughing: we currently have:

Konrad :blue_heart: [name_f]Louisa[/name_f] :heartpulse: [name_m]Oskar[/name_m] :blue_heart: (and [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] up in heaven). It took us a while (and a loss) to have [name_m]Oskar[/name_m] so who knows what the future holds, but we’re hoping to have one or two more.

We (obviously) stick to [name_m]German[/name_m] names or names with [name_m]German[/name_m] usage. Right now our front runners would be [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] (nn [name_m]Fritz[/name_m]) and [name_f]Zelda[/name_f]. What other names should we consider?

Love [name_f]Zelda[/name_f] and [name_m]Frederick[/name_m]! How about [name_m]Bastian[/name_m]? I think that’d go perfectly with your kids’ names. And I love the suggestions of [name_f]Matilda[/name_f].

For girls I would say [name_f]Frida[/name_f] or [name_f]Clara[/name_f], both Germanic in origin and well used here.

For boys, if not [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] which is perfect, then I would go with used in [name_m]Germany[/name_m] rather than Germanic in origin and go with [name_u]Elias[/name_u] or [name_m]Tobias[/name_m] (the I pronounced with an ee sound rather than eye for an extra [name_m]German[/name_m] feel).

All the best!

Bruna immediately came to mind and I would LOVE to see it used more.

Some of these may be a bit off the beaten path but I do believe all of them have strong [name_m]German[/name_m] use and also fit quite well with your set and as a bonus don’t repeat initials.

I’ve never heard of [name_f]Bruna[/name_f] - cool! [name_f]My[/name_f] nephew is [name_m]Bruno[/name_m] or else I’d totally consider it!

I’ve always loved [name_f]Frida[/name_f]!
