Family names in need of a twist!

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] Berries,

I’m trying to come up with a list of names which in some way honour family members (mainly grandparents and great grandparents). However, I’m looking for a fresh, rarer take on them.

For example, my grandma is [name_f]Lillian[/name_f], but I love [name_f]Lillia[/name_f] - is this too confusing though in a world with lots of [name_f]Lily[/name_f]'s and [name_f]Lillian[/name_f]'s?

Another name I love is my nan’s name, [name_f]Deidre[/name_f], but I could never name my child directly after a family member, so I thought [name_f]Deidra[/name_f] could work, but I’m not sure how [name_f]Deidra[/name_f] would work on a young and teenage girl.

Are then any other rare variations of these two, and the following names, that I should consider?

[name_f]Eva[/name_f]
[name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_f]Agnes[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]

Thanks!!! :blush:

[name_f]Eva[/name_f] - [name_f]Eve[/name_f], [name_f]Ava[/name_f] [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u], [name_f]Aveline[/name_f], Evany, Evanthne, [name_f]Aoibhe[/name_f], [name_f]Aoife[/name_f]

[name_f]Lillian[/name_f] is a diminutive of [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], originally, [name_f]Lilibeth[/name_f] or [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] or [name_f]Lisette[/name_f] or [name_f]Ilsa[/name_f] or [name_f]Liesel[/name_f] are options. Personally, I feel there are too many lili-ish names out there right now.

[name_f]Deidre[/name_f] - doesn’t have many variants but you could cheat and use [name_f]Adira[/name_f] or [name_f]Audra[/name_f]
