I’d love some new ideas and thoughts for our second child’s name. We have one daughter already: [name]Sofya[/name] (the Russian version of [name]Sophia[/name] and pronounced in the Russian way).

Our current longlist - and we are very unsure about a lot of these and can’t agree on a single one - is:

[name]Malachy[/name]
[name]Starling[/name]
[name]Cassidy[/name]/[name]Cass[/name]
[name]Soren[/name]
[name]Dori[/name]
[name]Inigo[/name]
[name]Eben[/name]
[name]Ilan[/name]
[name]Oren[/name]
[name]Cedar[/name]
[name]Aren[/name]

We quite like alliterative names and our surname begins with Sch. We don’t want something way out there and would consider a traditional name if we can find one we like, but would love to find something like our daughter’s name which is unusual yet familiar.

Quite interested in something with Hebrew roots, but really would consider any ideas - we are very stuck!

Thank you

Here’s a few quick thoughts. [name]Starling[/name] could be either a bit too feminine with the nickname [name]Star[/name] and [name]Cassidy[/name] is more a girl’s name. Why don’t you check out my favorite list on Nameberry and narrow your search a bit? Good luck.

I love [name]Malachy[/name] (though prefer [name]Malachi[/name]), [name]Starling[/name], [name]Soren[/name], [name]Inigo[/name] and [name]Oren[/name].

Thanks - that list is great. Thinking about [name]Bruno[/name] now as my husband loves [name]Bruce[/name] (but we have a cat called that).
