[name_m]Hi[/name_m] berries! I’m pregnant with b/g twins, due in [name_u]November[/name_u]. DH and I have a list of names we agree on (our naming styles are pretty similar, thank goodness), and we’d like to get some thoughts and ideas.
We’ve got a few combos, but we’re not entirely committed to any of them yet. Any name/combo suggestions or favorite pairs are more than welcome. We’d like to figure out two names for each child, so that we can decide which suits them best at birth. Meaning and popularity are not a big concern for either of us.
Boys-
[name_m]Louis[/name_m] (loo-ee) Isildur (nn [name_u]Lou[/name_u])
[name_m]Julian[/name_m] [name_m]Forest[/name_m] (nn [name_u]Jules[/name_u])
[name_m]Caleb[/name_m]/[name_m]Rodney[/name_m] [name_m]Ulysses[/name_m] (not sure about [name_m]Caleb[/name_m], I prefer names with nicknames)
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m] [name_m]Merlin[/name_m] (nn [name_u]Sasha[/name_u] or [name_u]Andy[/name_u])
[name_m]Ansel[/name_m]
[name_u]Sage[/name_u] (DH loves this as a first, I prefer it as a middle, though)
[name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_m]Edward[/name_m]/[name_m]Edmund[/name_m]
[name_m]Rodney[/name_m]
[name_u]Rowan[/name_u]
[name_m]Errol[/name_m] (this has been growing on me, but I’m not 100% sure about it - DH loves it, though)
Girls-
[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Persephone[/name_f] (nn would probably be [name_f]Flo[/name_f], but maybe [name_f]Lore[/name_f] or [name_f]Lori[/name_f] if it suited her)
[name_f]Mary[/name_f] [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] (again, not sure about the lack of nicknames)
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Andromeda[/name_f] (I’m not 100% sure about [name_f]Alice[/name_f] - I love [name_f]Andromeda[/name_f], but DH doesn’t)
[name_f]Gwendolen[/name_f] [name_f]Honor[/name_f] (nn [name_f]Gwen[/name_f], we both love [name_f]Gwendolen[/name_f], but we aren’t sure about [name_f]Honor[/name_f] as the middle)
[name_f]Constance[/name_f]
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]
[name_f]Willow[/name_f] (we both love this, but haven’t found a satisfactory middle yet)
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] (DH wants a full name for this, but I don’t like [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] or [name_f]Coraline[/name_f]/[name_f]Coralie[/name_f])
[name_f]Danica[/name_f] (nn [name_u]Dani[/name_u] or [name_f]Nicki[/name_f])
[name_f]Felicity[/name_f]
Please let me know what you think of our lists, and please share any suggestions. Thanks in advance!
