Challenge: names ending in -n

lucky_lindy · March 20, 2013, 10:03am

Hello, all! I am newly pregnant and working on expanding my girls list. (If the wee one is a boy, he will be named after my husband, [name]Morris[/name].)

At present, I have two daughters named [name]Vivian[/name] and [name]Kirsten[/name]. I do like how the names sound together with the ‘vowel+n’ at the end… subtle, yes, but lovely.

I was hoping to find another girls name to fit this trend, but I am not dead set on continuing if nothing feel right.
The only name on our girls list is [name]Gwendolen[/name], which I love, but I want to make a complete survey of my options.

In review, what are your favorite names that end in ‘-n’?

Also, what girls names would suit the sibset [name]Vivian[/name], [name]Kirsten[/name], and (potential, someday) [name]Morris[/name]?

[name]Lauren[/name] is nice

[name]Vivian[/name], [name]Kirsten[/name], and [name]Madeline[/name]

I love [name]Gwendolen[/name], but it has really different vibe compared to [name]Kirsten[/name] and [name]Vivian[/name].

Other names that I would use:

[name]Catherine[/name]
[name]Rowan[/name] (too unisex maybe?)
[name]Elowen[/name]
[name]Autumn[/name] (this seems to go well with [name]Kirsten[/name] and [name]Vivian[/name])
[name]Gillian[/name] (I like this one too)

[name]Seren[/name] is one of my favourites, and I think it works wonderfully with your daughter’s names.

niteowl13 · March 20, 2013, 5:32pm

Oh I think that’s too many names that end in N.
I like the suggestion of going with a name that ends in S to match [name]Morris[/name].
Perhaps,
[name]Agnes[/name]
[name]Iris[/name]
[name]Mavis[/name]
[name]Avis[/name]
[name]Dolores[/name]
