I like [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] the best with [name_u]Owen[/name_u].

3

The only name that I’m not a big fan of is [name_f]Etta[/name_f]. It seems a bit harsh, especially when paired with [name_u]Owen[/name_u]. My favorite is [name_f]Hattie[/name_f], followed by [name_f]Willa[/name_f] and then [name_f]Maisie[/name_f].

[name_f]Willa[/name_f] is my favorite as a name but [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] does sound the best with [name_u]Owen[/name_u]. I actually really like [name_f]Etta[/name_f] but not a fan of [name_f]Hattie[/name_f].

5

[name_f]Hattie[/name_f]
[name_f]Willa[/name_f]
[name_f]Maisie[/name_f]
[name_f]Etta[/name_f]

In that order.

thanks so far! I’m thinking [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] then [name_f]Hattie[/name_f] go best with [name_u]Owen[/name_u], but I actually love all 4!

7

I love them all, but I REALLY love [name_f]Willa[/name_f].

8

I love all of them but like [name_f]Hattie[/name_f] with [name_u]Owen[/name_u].

9

[name_f]Maisie[/name_f], definitely! It’s such a sweet name. I remember reading the [name_f]Maisy[/name_f] Mouse books as a child. It also has a more contemporary vibe than the others which goes well with [name_u]Owen[/name_u].

10

I cannot vote. I adore [name_f]Willa[/name_f], [name_f]Etta[/name_f], and [name_f]Hattie[/name_f] (also [name_f]Hettie[/name_f]).

11

[name_f]Etta[/name_f] is sassy, and got my vote. I think [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] is cutest with [name_u]Owen[/name_u] though.

12

Of the four I greatly prefer [name_f]Willa[/name_f], however, with [name_u]Owen[/name_u], I do think [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] works best.

13

I love your style! I’m usually not a fan of diminutives detached from a longer form, but I think these are some examples that really work.

It was a tough call, but I voted for [name_f]Hattie[/name_f]. There’s just something so spunky, sweet, and serious about it, all at the same time. I love names that can encompass all those things at once. Plus I think [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_f]Hattie[/name_f] just sound like they were made to be brother and sister.

My next choice would’ve been [name_f]Maisie[/name_f]. I really love [name_f]Maisie[/name_f], but I prefer it as a nickname for [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] simply because I have a hard time picturing it as a stand-alone name on an adult. But it’s not babyish, either, so I think it still works.

[name_f]Willa[/name_f] is darling, but it sounds like it might run into [name_u]Owen[/name_u] a bit. [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_f]Willa[/name_f]. Oweninwilla.

[name_f]Etta[/name_f] is the only one I’m not feeling. It just seems like a suffix to me, like a nickname for [name_f]Henrietta[/name_f], [name_f]Elisabetta[/name_f], [name_f]Juliette[/name_f], [name_f]Odette[/name_f], [name_f]Jeanette[/name_f]…you get the idea. I just think this one more than the others yearns for a longer form.

14

I like all of these with [name_u]Owen[/name_u]. My favorite is [name_f]Willa[/name_f] so that’s what I vote for. Honestly, any of these would be awesome sisters for [name_u]Owen[/name_u]. I think [name_f]Etta[/name_f] is the least similar in style to [name_u]Owen[/name_u], even though I love it I wouldn’t pick [name_f]Etta[/name_f] off you your list, when you already have the amazing names [name_f]Willa[/name_f], [name_f]Hattie[/name_f], and [name_f]Maisie[/name_f]!

15

Thank you all so much! Not that it has brought me any clarity, but I think [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] has definitely earned a new spot on my list. The others have all been there, on and off. [name_f]Etta[/name_f] was previously a fave, but I never loved it with [name_u]Owen[/name_u] so I don’t think I’d actually use it…

16

[name_f]Maisie[/name_f] is my favorite by far!

17

My favorites with [name_u]Owen[/name_u] would be:

  1. [name_f]Maisie[/name_f]
  2. [name_f]Hattie[/name_f]
  3. [name_f]Willa[/name_f]
  4. [name_f]Etta[/name_f]
18

I chose [name_f]Maisie[/name_f], but it was a close call between her and [name_f]Willa[/name_f]. Both are great choices, and I love the meaning of both!

19

I like Willla and [name_f]Etta[/name_f]

20

I like [name_f]Hattie[/name_f] but I much prefer [name_f]Hadi[/name_f] as a spelling. Good [name_m]Luck[/name_m]! :slight_smile:
