3 months since I last asked for baby name advice, and I’m here again for more.
I was a little off about my due date the last time I wrote a forum here. Rather than mid [name_u]September[/name_u], I am due any day now, and zero clue on what to name my twin boy.
[name_f]My[/name_f] partner and I picked out a baby girl name after receiving a bunch of lovely suggestions from other Berries on here. We decided on [name_f]Reyna[/name_f] [name_f]Apricity[/name_f] [name_u]Jade[/name_u] for our baby girl, [name_f]Reyna[/name_f] as a first and [name_f]Apricity[/name_f] + [name_u]Jade[/name_u] as middle names.
We have a list of names for our son-on-the-way but we just can’t choose or agree what first and middle name(s) will work well with hers.
Some of the names are; [name_u]Micah[/name_u], [name_m]Ivan[/name_m], [name_m]Atticus[/name_m], [name_u]Valor[/name_u], [name_m]Evander[/name_m], [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u], [name_u]Arden[/name_u], [name_m]Silas[/name_m], [name_u]Jasper[/name_u].
Any suggestions based on those names, or any other boy names you can think off, would be much appreciated.
Please keep in mind that his twin sister is [name_f]Reyna[/name_f] [name_f]Apricity[/name_f] [name_u]Jade[/name_u]. [name_m]Little[/name_m] guy also has an older sister [name_f]Serenity[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f], and a half-sister [name_f]Melody[/name_f] [name_u]Brooke[/name_u]
[name_f]My[/name_f] partner suggested [name_m]Fletcher[/name_m] for our boy, and I do love the name as well, but I’m just unsure if it actually goes well with any of my girls’ names.
By itself, maybe just maybe, it could work, but as a twin brother name for [name_f]Reyna[/name_f] [name_f]Apricity[/name_f] [name_u]Jade[/name_u], I don’t think so
I would think about the following pairings (with two middles - would probably do two for both twins, not just one, but obv cut one of the suggested middles or mix and match as needed):
Atticus Valor Jude (a little matchy with girl twin name but not cutesy/oppressive!)
Nicholas Freddie Alpenglow (Alpenglow matches Apricity’s meaning)
Evander Lawrence Boone
Jasper James Phoenix
Evander Hugo Lyric (or Lyric Hugo depending on flow to last name - Lyric a lovely tie to others)
Ivan Arthur Merit (or Arthur in top spot - I prefer Arthur, Ivan is a scary name in Australia but Ivan does go with Reyna)
Everett Phillip Darcy
Max Ivan Polaris (Polaris meaning is wonderful)
Julian Casper Lyric
Felix Evander Claude (same rhythm as girl twin)
Benedict Fletcher Sterling (Benedict would go so well with all three girls)
Indigo Fletcher John (with Indigo being a gem to connect with Jade)
(I like Micah but it’s too matchy and reads girl name to me with Reyna - as a first, I mean - more than fine as a middle).
Hope these provide some inspiration either way! (Edited to clarify that not too cutesy/oppressive)
Congratulations on your twins and you’ve chosen a beautiful name for your daughter! Boy’s names are much harder in my opinion but you’ve got some lovely choices so I think whatever you end up picking will be lovely also.
[name_f]My[/name_f] favourites combos from your list (but adding a 2nd middle like his sister):
[name_m]Malachi[/name_m]: has a similar sound to the green gem malachite which would tie nicely with sister’s middle name Jade) nn [name_u]Kai[/name_u] or [name_u]Mal[/name_u] are also sweet
[name_u]Gable[/name_u] or [name_m]Gabe[/name_m]: old fashioned cool but also nature inspired
[name_u]Jett[/name_u]: another masculine gem name
[name_u]Onyx[/name_u]: another masculine gem name with a cool edge
[name_m]Eero[/name_m]: really cool name with a similar meaning to [name_f]Reyna[/name_f]
[name_u]Sirocco[/name_u]: similar meaning to [name_f]Apricity[/name_f] with cool nickname [name_u]Rocco[/name_u] also nature name
All the best finding the perfect name for your son!
Congratulations! How exciting. [name_f]My[/name_f] favourites for your son that I think are great alongside the girls’ names but also sturdy and complimentary, but not matchy….
Congratulations!!
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] [name_u]Valor[/name_u]!
Second favourite is [name_m]Silas[/name_m] [name_u]Arden[/name_u] [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u]. Some suggestions:
Reyna Apricity Jade is stunning!
