[name_m]Even[/name_m] [name_f]Thora[/name_f]? Not sure if it ‘fits’ but so pretty…

[name_f]Cora[/name_f] got my vote. Apart from the fact that I personally really like the name, [name_f]Edie[/name_f], [name_m]Ike[/name_m] and [name_f]Cora[/name_f] all have an antiquated feel as well as a modern feel going on, so I think it works well.

4

When I read the question, before I saw the suggestions ‘Purdy’ popped into my head.

5

[name_f]Cora[/name_f] is my pick, for the same reasons as pp stated! Plus I think the initial “C” sounds great at the end of a sibset (as opposed to the softer “N.”) [name_f]Sibyl[/name_f] would be my second pick.

6

Thank you for your responses!

7

I voted for [name_f]Sybil[/name_f] and [name_f]Cora[/name_f], although I really love all of them with your kiddos’ names!

8

Anyone else care to share why they chose what they did- No one has commented on [name_f]Nora[/name_f] but it is in the lead- perhaps just more familiar?

9

I would think that each of these would fit perfectly with the exception of [name_f]Cora[/name_f] which is a little formal and harsh for your lovely sibset.

10

[name_f]Nora[/name_f] is my pick .

I voted for [name_f]Nora[/name_f], though I think they all go with [name_f]Edie[/name_f] and [name_m]Ike[/name_m] (maybe [name_f]Margot[/name_f] less so). Honestly, I chose [name_f]Nora[/name_f] because [name_f]Cora[/name_f] and [name_f]Sybil[/name_f] are names from Downton [name_u]Abbey[/name_u], where there is also an [name_f]Edith[/name_f] (which is close to [name_f]Edie[/name_f]). [name_f]Edie[/name_f] & [name_f]Cora[/name_f] or [name_f]Edie[/name_f] & [name_f]Sybil[/name_f] just seemed really Downton [name_u]Abbey[/name_u]. That’s not a very good reason, but I like all three names, so that’s how I chose. :slight_smile: Also… [name_f]Sybil[/name_f] I feel like is more dated and [name_f]Cora[/name_f] I feel like is really making a comeback (might get really popular)… [name_f]Nora[/name_f] seems vintage but modern and not destined for the very top. [name_f]Margot[/name_f] is beautiful… I don’t feel like it goes as well with the others, but it would still be a good choice. I’m no help!

[name_u]Poll[/name_u] is close to ending so bumping for more feedback. Any new names to add to the mix? Thank you so much :slight_smile:

13

I voted for [name_f]Margot[/name_f] as it is my favourite on your list. Personally, I think it is more important just to choose the name you love as number one, followed by which names sound best with siblings. From your list, they all work well with [name_f]Edie[/name_f] and [name_m]Ike[/name_m] and are lovely names. I don’t think we should get too caught up on what works with siblings quite as much as choosing the best name for baby😀. I hope that is helpful.

14

Thank you… And I agree but my husband and I are having difficulty choosing and I like them each for different reasons. Sigh

15

Like your sibset and also the possible future names, but they don’t seem to match the other sibs.
Maybe?

[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] ([name_f]Rosa[/name_f])
