I’m not trying to be picky but I’m completely and totally flummoxed on finding a name that I love. [name]Sister[/name] to [name]Audrey[/name] [name]Wynne[/name] due in just 8 weeks and I’m starting from scratch! I’d like to find a 2 syllable feminine name with some pizazz, or uniqueness, or distinctiveness. The names that seem to match [name]Audrey[/name] and that I actually like are soooo popular ([name]Sophie[/name], [name]Olivia[/name], [name]Lily[/name], [name]Isabel[/name], [name]Claire[/name], etc) and that’s a negative for me. I’d sooooo love some fresh inspiration and insight. Frankly, the dilemma is starting to get me a bit down and I’m really wanting to counter that and just be excited about the new baby! A name that I love would be such a boon.
I love [name]Audrey[/name]! Are you only looking for names with two syllables?
[name]Cora[/name]
[name]Charlotte[/name]
[name]Clara[/name]
[name]Flora[/name]
[name]Georgia[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name]
[name]Iris[/name]

[name]Lucy[/name] (same ending sound as [name]Audrey[/name], though…)
[name]Margot[/name]/[name]Margo[/name]
[name]Nora[/name]
[name]Phoebe[/name] (matching eee ending sound with [name]Audrey[/name], though…)

[name]Tessa[/name]

[name]Violet[/name] (I’m trying to figure out if I pronounce [name]Violet[/name] with two or three syllables…Hmmm…)
I think I can even see [name]Camille[/name] or [name]Simone[/name] with [name]Audrey[/name]…
Longer names:
[name]Caroline[/name]
[name]Diana[/name]
[name]Eliza[/name] (then again, [name]Audrey[/name] Hepburn starred as [name]Eliza[/name] Doolittle, so it may seem like an [name]Audrey[/name] tribute…)
[name]Eleanor[/name]
[name]Emmeline[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Juliet[/name]
[name]Miranda[/name]
[name]Vivian[/name]

I have nothing new to suggest, but I will say that I love previous suggestions of [name]Claudia[/name], [name]Harriet[/name], [name]Olive[/name] and [name]Vivian[/name].

[name]LOVE[/name] [name]Audrey[/name] but I have to say that I have two girls, both with the “ee” sound at the end and it is slightly grating on the ear (and “cutesy” [name]IMO[/name]). Therefore, I like names that end in “a”:
[name]Stella[/name] / [name]Ella[/name]
[name]Nora[/name]
[name]Kiera[/name]
[name]Sara[/name]
[name]Mira[/name]
[name]Lina[/name]
[name]Even[/name] [name]Neve[/name]/ [name]Liv[/name]
Good luck!!
The first names that come to mind when I think of [name]Audrey[/name]'s little sister are [name]Lydia[/name], [name]Sylvia[/name], [name]Caroline[/name], and [name]Alana[/name]/[name]Elena[/name]. I love many of the names previous posters have mentioned too!
I love the suggestions of [name]Hazel[/name], [name]Helen[/name] (makes me think of [name]Helen[/name] of [name]Troy[/name]), [name]Ingrid[/name], and [name]Greta[/name]. They all seem to fit your criteria, and all of them would be nice with [name]Audrey[/name]. My first thought on reading your post was “[name]Daphne[/name],” because that name always feels a little distinct and even a little quirky while being a “real” name. However, with the “ee” sound on the end, it might be a little cutesy with [name]Audrey[/name].
I just wanted to add another one to my list of suggestions. I was thinking that [name]Audrey[/name] sounds very nice with [name]Elise[/name] (or [name]Elyse[/name], as my middle name is spelled)…
[name]How[/name] about [name]Isla[/name]? That’s my daughter’s name and we were really considering [name]Audrey[/name] as a sister name for a good long time. I think we are going to go with [name]Brynn[/name] instead, but I stlil think [name]Isla[/name] & [name]Audrey[/name] sound great together! GL!
