Hello team
[name_f][/name_f]
I have a little one due very soon and I’m stuck!
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]My[/name_f] sons are named [name_m]Otto[/name_m] [name_m]Raymond[/name_m] and [name_m]Louis[/name_m] [name_m]Vincent[/name_m] (pronounced the [name_m]French[/name_m] way, ‘Louie’ not ‘Lewis’).
[name_f][/name_f]
I like those short, spunky first names with the longer, less cool family homage middle names. Heritage is [name_m]German[/name_m], Scandinavian and [name_m]French[/name_m]. We live in Australia. Prefer not to repeat endings (so avoiding -o and -ee sounding endings but not a dealbreaker).

If bub is a girl, she’ll be [name_f]Saskia[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] (could name 50 girls easily), but for a boy I am lost!
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]My[/name_f] favourite is [name_m]Felix[/name_m] – it ticks all of my boxes but is taken by a friend’s son.
[name_f][/name_f]
Other I like but taken include:
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Jude[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f]
Like but won’t use
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Enzo[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f]
Middle names (family names) could be:
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Laurence[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f]
I’d love to find that special name that will help me get over the fact that I can’t use [name_m]Felix[/name_m]!
[name_f][/name_f]
Huge thanks
Short spunky first names…

I love your naming style!

How about using [name_m]Laurence[/name_m] as a first name [name_f][/name_f]- he could go by [name_m]Laurie[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f]
Would [name_m]Judah[/name_m] work if you can’t use [name_m]Jude[/name_m]?

Same ending sounds as your boys:
[name_m]Edmund[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f]
I feel like the middles [name_m]Russell[/name_m] and [name_m]Douglas[/name_m] work best!
Some great ones in here, thank you!

Here’s my girl long-list:
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]Yolanda[/name_f]
[name_f]My[/name_f] first thought was [name_m]Fox[/name_m], mentioned by a previous poster already
Oooo. [name_m]Ivan[/name_m] comes to mind first. Maybe [name_m]Ivan[/name_m] [name_m]Laurence[/name_m] or [name_m]Ivan[/name_m] [name_m]Douglas[/name_m]?
[name_f][/name_f]
Other “F” initial names:
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Flynn[/name_m] [name_m]Laurence[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f]
Others:
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Ned[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f]
Hopefully these help!

Fellow [name_f]Aussie[/name_f] and just to say that two of my friends in my school buddy group have kids with the same name within a year or so, and no one cares. The kids have their own lives, and only occasionally see each other anyway (even if the parents do). [name_f]My[/name_f] cousins have repeat names among their own children. Again, no biggie! So I think you keep [name_m]Felix[/name_m] in the mix.
[name_m]Otto[/name_m] [name_m]Raymond[/name_m], [name_m]Louis[/name_m] [name_m]Vincent[/name_m] and…
