My daughter is [name_f]Maia[/name_f] (my-a) [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f]. We are expecting number two and although I’m constantly browsing names on nameberry for inspiration nothing at all is sticking! So, I’m calling on all you berries to help as d-day is encroaching fast!
Funnily enough we have our middle names chosen… [name_m]Patrick[/name_m] for a boy and [name_f]Brigid[/name_f] for a girl. [name_m]Both[/name_m] are not as pretty as I’d like but they are family names and for that reason they are staying. Picking names to go with them, that flow as nice dd’s name is soo difficult!
I’d like to avoid another M name.
For a girl I like the idea of a nn utilising ‘B’ in the name e.g ‘[name_f]Annie[/name_f]-B’. I [name_f]LOVE[/name_f] [name_f]Annie[/name_f] but can’t use it. I’d like to find a name similar, classic clean and crisp but not too popular.
I’m also toying with [name_f]Lily[/name_f] and [name_f]Elle[/name_f] (but not [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] /[name_f]Ella[/name_f]). Dh has just suggested [name_f]Ally[/name_f] - I’m not sure.
For a Boy I’m liking [name_u]Evan[/name_u], or [name_m]Louis[/name_m]/[name_m]Louie[/name_m] but dh’s opinion on first is ‘Too Nerdy’(!!) and the latter is ‘Too Watery’ (!!)…and you wonder why I’m having issues choosing a name!
Any tips, pointers, suggestions, and advice will be greatly welcomed!
