My favourite girl names are [name]Maeve[/name] and [name]Isla[/name] and I am having trouble finding the perfect boy name to accompony them - ttc #1 and just constantly thinking about names! I would love something fresh, celtic, unusual and classy - but definitely unusual! Letters which names cannot begin with - i, l, f, m, z. I can’t wait to hear your suggestions! :slight_smile: Thanks so much.

[name]Hi[/name] - I was so excited to see that you included [name]Quinn[/name] on your list - we have been talking about [name]Quinn[/name] a lot and I love it, but have 2 hang-ups: Is it now quite popular? I really would like something unusual; and the other issue I have is that my step-son’s name is [name]Deacon[/name] and I’m wondering if the last bit of his name i a little too similar - dea[name]CON[/name] and [name]QUINN[/name]? What do you think, should I just forget it? Other than these issues, I do love [name]Quinn[/name]! Thanks for your help! x

Unless you pronounce [name]Quinn[/name] as kin instead of kwin, you’ll be fine.

Our daughter is an [name]Isla[/name] and if we have a boy next he will be [name]Grant[/name]. Many have told me it is a “Great match” for [name]Isla[/name].

[name]Kelli[/name], you’re back! [name]Will[/name] you check your [name]Afton[/name] post, please? :wink:

Anyway, poster, I love [name]Maeve[/name] and [name]Isla[/name] together! [name]How[/name] sweet!

I know a [name]Maeve[/name] who has two brothers called [name]Keegan[/name] and [name]Cormac[/name], so those could work. You’ve gotten so many amazing suggestions, I’m not sure what more I can add!

Oh goodness I totally forgot about the forbidden letters! My apologies!

I love [name]Quinn[/name] for a boy! I wouldn’t worry too much about it’s popularity – I’d say it’s moderate, but so is [name]Isla[/name] so I think it’s a pretty good match.

I also wouldn’t worry about [name]Deacon[/name] and [name]Quinn[/name] – they are distinct enough that it doesn’t bother me. :slight_smile:
