Baby naming advice

bittersweetsilence · January 30, 2023, 3:53am

[name_f]My[/name_f] SO and I have went through a lot of baby name lists and have agreed on some together. I would like your thoughts on our list and if you could see any of them used as siblings. We will take any suggestions for first names and middle names based on these.

Boys: [name_u]August[/name_u] (our top choice), [name_u]Holland[/name_u], [name_m]Ansel[/name_m], [name_m]Orson[/name_m], [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]

Girls: Only 2 we can agree on are [name_u]Arya[/name_u] and [name_f]Thalia[/name_f] (Tall-ya)

Not actively TTC but are in the middle of making plans for the future

I love [name_u]August[/name_u] , [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_f]Thalia[/name_f] as siblings !!

katinka · January 30, 2023, 12:08pm

I adore [name_m]Ansel[/name_m] and [name_m]Orson[/name_m] together! Both cool, unexpected, warm retro names with artistic connections. [name_u]Holland[/name_u] or even [name_u]Hollis[/name_u] would make a nice third brother.

[name_u]August[/name_u] and [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] also work together beautifully, and I can totally see them with a sister [name_f]Thalia[/name_f] as well.

Gosh you guys are good coming up with such a solid list together!

[name_f]My[/name_f] thoughts

[name_u]August[/name_u] ~ handsome, summery and fashion forward. I think [name_m]Orson[/name_m] makes a fabulous brother name for [name_u]August[/name_u].

[name_u]Holland[/name_u] ~ a cool place name option feels modern. [name_u]Holland[/name_u] & [name_m]Ansel[/name_m] are a solid pairing.

[name_m]Ansel[/name_m] ~ a fun European choice that feels unexpected works well with [name_u]Holland[/name_u].

[name_m]Orson[/name_m] ~ lovely name feels so handsome and distinguished. [name_u]Love[/name_u] paired with [name_u]August[/name_u]. I also think [name_m]Orson[/name_m] works well with [name_u]Arya[/name_u].

[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] ~ a lovely soft handsome peaceful boy name that is understandably popular. [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] & [name_u]August[/name_u] would be a sweet pairing.

Suggestions: [name_u]Axel[/name_u], [name_u]Rowan[/name_u], [name_m]Otis[/name_m], [name_u]Zealand[/name_u], [name_u]Rome[/name_u] & [name_u]Ezra[/name_u].

[name_u]Arya[/name_u] ~ a very modern trendy option feels very GOT I prefer [name_u]Aria[/name_u] spelling wise but still great choice. I can see her working as a sister for [name_m]Orson[/name_m].

[name_f]Thalia[/name_f] ~ this isn’t my style the pronunciation also doesn’t come naturally to me [name_u]Tal[/name_u] [name_u]Lee[/name_u] Uh is how I would say this name hopefully that makes sense but I think could work well with [name_m]Ansel[/name_m].

Suggestions: [name_f]Samara[/name_f], [name_u]Willow[/name_u], [name_f]Nadia[/name_f], [name_f]Isla[/name_f], [name_f]Ayla[/name_f], [name_f]Tallulah[/name_f] and [name_f]Soraya[/name_f]

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps

Thank you everyone for the suggestions and thoughts. I’m very happy and lucky he’s got a good naming style. We have agreed on the spelling [name_f]Thalia[/name_f]. We also really like the name Solomon… we are still trying to find common girl names we like. Boys names just come easier for us.

bittersweetsilence · March 24, 2023, 7:17pm

We have also added [name_m]Solomon[/name_m] to the list! Still no luck finding another’s girl name, but we both like [name_f]Lilibet[/name_f] but I don’t know if it’s too much associated with [name_u]Royal[/name_u] Family. (We are located in the US)
