I’ve been a long time lurker on this site, particularly when I was pregnant with my twin girls, but I have finally decided to make an account in the hopes that you can help my husband and I name our little baby due in [name_u]August[/name_u]. We currently have one boy, [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Wolf[/name_m], and twin girls, [name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_u]Storm[/name_u]. We really like classic first names and seem to have started a theme of having a nature middle name (totally unintentional). We have a list of first names that we really love, but are struggling to find any nature names we really love or that go well with the first names:
Girls:
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Edith[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_u]Wren[/name_u] (love this as a first name, but with a nature middle it could be too much?)
[name_f]Ava[/name_f]
[name_f]Sophie[/name_f]
[name_f]Freya[/name_f]
[name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_f]Erin[/name_f]
Boys:
[name_m]Rufus[/name_m]
[name_m]Rupert[/name_m]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u]
[name_m]Henry[/name_m]
[name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m]
[name_m]Reuben[/name_m]
What nature middle names would you suggest pairing with these names? Which name do you feel works best with [name_u]Ollie[/name_u], [name_f]Alice[/name_f] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]? Thank you!
I love your kids’ names!

maybe this’ll help?
Thank you! The boy’s names you picked out as your favourites are actually our three biggest contenders as well!
I really really love all of the middle names you have given for [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and [name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Willow[/name_f] is stunning. I can’t believe I didn’t think of [name_u]River[/name_u] as a middle name, I absolutely love it! [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] [name_u]River[/name_u] and [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] [name_m]Bear[/name_m] are so cute and I love [name_m]Henry[/name_m] [name_m]Ace[/name_m] as well. Thank you for your help
If you love [name_u]Wren[/name_u] I would suggest not tossing it only because it is difficult to work with a middle nature name, but how about switching it around and using the nature name in the first spot this time around? [name_u]Wren[/name_u] [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] or [name_u]Wren[/name_u] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] are lovely. Or some nature names are so mainstream that I don’t think of them as “nature” as soon as I hear them. Maybe [name_u]Wren[/name_u] [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]? On your boys list I really like [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] and [name_m]Samuel[/name_m]. Maybe [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] [name_m]Brooks[/name_m] or [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] [name_m]Ridge[/name_m].
I agree that [name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Willow[/name_f] is fabulous with the sibset. It is harder for me choose favorite from your boys’ names, but I especially like [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] [name_m]Forest[/name_m] and [name_m]Calvin[/name_m] [name_m]Forest[/name_m].
I know you like [name_u]Wren[/name_u] & [name_f]Violet[/name_f] as first names but they’re also pretty earthy you could pair them with the other names such as [name_f]Sophie[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
Or [name_f]Freya[/name_f] (which I love btw) [name_u]Wren[/name_u]…
otherwise I think nuki did an amazing job pairing names in your list. Very lovely!
