We’ve been trying to conceive for several months now and trying to keep the spirits up, so diving into some name ideas to stay positive. Thoughts on our current top picks for boy and girl?
Mackenzie Ward G.
Gemma Naomi G.
Ward and Naomi are chosen from our families, but they aren’t especially meaningful honor names. Other names floating around are:
Silas, Josiah, Elijah, James, Malcolm, Jeremiah, Rhodes, August
Ada, Amelia, Emerson, Hannan (not Hannah), Margot, Althea, Eliza
I really like [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] but prefer [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u] on a girl. From your list my favourites are:
[name_m]Silas[/name_m] [name_m]Ward[/name_m]
[name_u]Elijah[/name_u] [name_m]Ward[/name_m]
[name_u]August[/name_u] [name_m]Ward[/name_m] (I love the nn [name_u]Gus[/name_u] if you are nickname people)
[name_u]Rhodes[/name_u] is such a handsome name but is a bit abrupt with [name_m]Ward[/name_m].
[name_u]August[/name_u] [name_u]Rhodes[/name_u] is pretty awesome! I’m not sure my husband is into the nn [name_u]Gus[/name_u] (he really loves [name_u]Mack[/name_u] which was a draw to Mackenzie), but I will say I’m pretty impressed with [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_u]Rhodes[/name_u]!
Your choices are wonderful!
I think [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_f]Althea[/name_f] would be stunning!
For a boy, my choice would be [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_m]Silas[/name_m] or [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_u]Rhodes[/name_u]. I also like [name_m]Malcolm[/name_m] [name_u]Rhodes[/name_u] and [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Malcolm[/name_m].
From your list, my favourites are [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u] & [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] - I absolutely love these!
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] is gorgeous! About [name_u]Mackenzie[/name_u], I’m worried that your (hypothetical) son may get teased for it, I think [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_m]Ward[/name_m] may be a better option. [name_f]My[/name_f] other suggestions:
