Finn Wilder, Kai River, and Sunny _____?

24 weeks pregnant with baby girl. We are liking Sunny/Sunnie (not sure which spelling yet), but need a middle name.
What do you like? [name_u]Or[/name_u] other suggestions? I like boho/earthy. (Switch spellings if you want)

[name_u]Sunnie[/name_u] [name_u]Willow[/name_u]
[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_u]Hazel[/name_u]
[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f]
[name_u]Sunnie[/name_u] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]

…or should we do something more traditional in the middle like:
[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] (after my grandma)
[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Mary[/name_f] (after my mom)
[name_u]Sunnie[/name_u] [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f]
[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Virginia[/name_f]

[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_u]Hazel[/name_u] is very sweet! I think she goes best with [name_u]Finn[/name_u] [name_u]Wilder[/name_u] & [name_u]Kai[/name_u] [name_u]River[/name_u], and she bridges the gap between boho and traditional with her nature connection and vintage charm. [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] is also lovely, and I like that it’s an honour for your grandmother. [name_u]Sunnie[/name_u] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] is my third pick.

Why I’m less of a fan of the others

— I like [name_u]Sunnie[/name_u] [name_u]Willow[/name_u] a lot, but I find [name_u]Willow[/name_u] and [name_u]Wilder[/name_u] a bit too close in a sibset.
— I don’t love the flow/repetition of [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f].
— [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Mary[/name_f] and [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Virginia[/name_f] don’t have the same excitement & adventure as your boys’ names.
— [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] is beautiful, I just prefer the other three.

I won’t be much help with the first name as I’m pretty neutral on the spelling, I prefer [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] and think it’s more intuitive, but [name_u]Sunnie[/name_u] is nice as well.

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.

I think that I’ve told you this before, but I love [name_u]Finn[/name_u] [name_u]Wilder[/name_u] & [name_u]Kai[/name_u] River…such a cool vibe! [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] would be sweet for their sister. I definitely prefer this spelling. It looks way more natural & will cause less confusion.

Here are my thoughts on your middle name options:

[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] Willow-I don’t know if I like this. I typically love [name_u]Willow[/name_u] as a middle name, but [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_u]Willow[/name_u] sounds too descriptive. And [name_u]Willow[/name_u] trees are shady.

[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] Hazel-This is also descriptive, but I don’t mind it as much. I like [name_u]Hazel[/name_u] in general a lot.

[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] Daisy-Daisy is one of my absolute favorite girls. She’s a shining star! That being said, this combo is way too cutesy & I don’t love the repeating of the ‘ee’ ending.

[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] Mae-I’m pretty picky about preferring [name_f]May[/name_f] to [name_f]Mae[/name_f]. Otherwise, this is pretty cute.

[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] Margaret-I think that fact that it’s an honor name makes me really like it. And it flows well.

[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] Mary-Love the idea of honoring your mom, but I don’t love the flow of SunnY MarY.

[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] Adelaide-My favorite! [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] is solid & vintage enough to balance out the super cute [name_u]Sunny[/name_u], but it’s light enough to not be too clunky.

[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] Virginia-Virginia is a nice name, but this is too descriptive again.

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps. :slight_smile:

Great choices, I like [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_u]Hazel[/name_u] best I think.

[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] has the best balance! [name_f]Mae[/name_f] is cute and earthy, but still very much a name, so it balances well with [name_u]Sunnie[/name_u]. [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] goes perfectly with your boys!

I prefer it spelled [name_u]Sunny[/name_u], like the word. You won’t have to correct people as often.

[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] is by far my favorite, especially since it’s an honor name.

[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_u]Hazel[/name_u] would be my first choice of your options. [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] if lovely, too.

[name_f]My[/name_f] first thought was [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Lavender[/name_f] since both [name_u]Kai[/name_u] and [name_u]Finn[/name_u] have middle names that end with -er. Also [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] or [name_u]Sunny[/name_u] [name_f]Mayflower[/name_f] (could be an honor for your mom and grandma while also being a boho)
