Baby #2 Name Help please!

Hello!

I would love some thoughts about [name_f]Girl[/name_f] names for our second baby. We dont know the gender but want to have names ready for both…and already have a boy’s name.

[name_f]My[/name_f] oldest her name is [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_u]Marie[/name_u]. Our last name starts with ‘P’, ends in ‘i’.

I love names that are meaningful, classic, ‘real names’ but not too common and feel light and pretty.

'Estelle Marie" is also a flower…so I would like a flower in another girl’s name and a patron saint at least in middle name.

So far our first name possibilities are [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] or [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f].

I love [name_f]Lily[/name_f] but I think it’s too popular…and also [name_f]Celeste[/name_f] but hubby does not like.

With [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] I was thinking middle names such as [name_f]Teresa[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] or my moms name which is [name_f]Jolanta[/name_f]. I love [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] but not sure about middle name…maybe [name_f]Jolanta[/name_f] or Jolanta-Anna, [name_u]Anne[/name_u], Grace…

Any suggeations suggestions for middle names for either [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] or [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] would be great or any other first name suggestions on the same theme.

Thank you!

How about [name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f] or [name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]? [name_f]Flora[/name_f] is flower so it would be Mayflower backward.

Both [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] and [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] are great with [name_f]Estelle[/name_f]. Maybe [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Teresa[/name_f] or [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] [name_f]Jolanta[/name_f]

Other ideas would be [name_f]Calla[/name_f] or [name_f]Liliosa[/name_f]

I just looked up flowers with human-like names (if that makes sense) and here are some I’ve found or created a combo for.

[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] (Adelaide d’Orleans)
[name_f]Anna[/name_f] [name_f]Primrose[/name_f] (Anna’s Promise)
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Austin[/name_u] (doesn’t really fit your flow, but I had to throw this in because this was my top combo many years ago)
[name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] (Sweet Juliet)
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] (Alstroemeria [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] Peruvian Lily)
[name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] (Lily-Flowered Tulip)
[name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] (Jacqueline [name_f]Du[/name_f] Pre Rose)
[name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] (Lady [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] Climbing Rose)
[name_f]Georgia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] (Teasing [name_f]Georgia[/name_f] Rose)

[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Valentina[/name_f], [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] [name_f]Jolie[/name_f] (variation on grandma’s name)

Also, you could go with [name_f]Lillian[/name_f] nn [name_f]Lily[/name_f]

Another vote here for Flora (although as the mother of one, I’m biased :wink:)

It fulfills both of your requirements with its meaning of flowers/springtime and also as a saint name. St. Flora is patron saint of abandoned and single laywomen, and victims of betrayal and
Death—she has beautiful connections to forgiveness and humility.

Bonus points for also being a Roman goddess name, and (if you’re an art fan) for her representation as beauty personified in paintings by Rembrandt and Titian.

I LOVE the names [name_f]Flora[/name_f], [name_f]Susannah[/name_f], and [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] (meaning daisy), for you. The idea of [name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f] is awesome!!

Thank you! [name_f]My[/name_f] husband and I love [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]! It sounds so beautiful!

I am now pondering about adding my mom’s name but not wanting to change the flow…I don’t think she is expecting it yet I still feel I ‘should’. Need to do some reflection on that one!
