We are expecting our second baby later this year and we can’t find a name that we love as much as our daughters name. She is [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Dianne[/name]. [name]Dianne[/name] is my mothers middle name. My husband wants to honor his mother with the middle name [name]Lynn[/name], or some form of it, if we have a girl. We are leaning towards something like Rosalynn or Brealynn but we aren’t sure! He is also determined to have the middle name for a boy to be [name]Michael[/name], after him. Help us find a first name! Some that we like so far but aren’t sure about are:
Girls:
[name]Scarlet[/name]
[name]Eliza[/name]
[name]Amelia[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] (not sure if it sounds good with [name]Lucy[/name])
[name]Nora[/name]
[name]Alice[/name]
Boys:
[name]Jasper[/name]
[name]Oliver[/name]
[name]Ronan[/name]
[name]Ronald[/name] nn [name]Ronnie[/name] (after my father)
[name]Sebastian[/name]
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
Girls:
[name]Scarlet[/name]- Never been a fan of [name]Scarlet[/name]. It sounds very harsh to me.
[name]Eliza[/name]- Very nice
[name]Amelia[/name]- Beautiful
[name]Ruby[/name] (not sure if it sounds good with [name]Lucy[/name])- Definitely too close to [name]Lucy[/name].
[name]Nora[/name]- Probably my favorite on the list
[name]Alice[/name]- A great name, and great with [name]Lucy[/name]
Top choices, in order: [name]Nora[/name], [name]Amelia[/name], [name]Alice[/name], [name]Eliza[/name]
Boys:
[name]Jasper[/name]- Reminds me of [name]Casper[/name] the friendly ghost.
[name]Oliver[/name]- I love the rhythm of [name]Oliver[/name], and this is definitely the best match with [name]Lucy[/name]. I do wonder about how it ages, though.
[name]Ronan[/name]- Easily my favorite name here
[name]Ronald[/name] nn [name]Ronnie[/name] (after my father)- I honestly think [name]Ronan[/name] could be a subtle way to honor your father. [name]Ronald[/name] is alright; quite clunky and dated, but I really like the meaning behind it and [name]Ron[/name]/[name]Ronnie[/name] makes it a bit more wearable.
[name]Sebastian[/name]- It’s alright. Not my taste, but not a bad name. I like nicknames [name]Bas[/name] and [name]Bastian[/name].
Favorites, in order: [name]Ronan[/name], [name]Oliver[/name], [name]Ronald[/name]
You might also consider a different way to honor [name]Michael[/name]: [name]Michaela[/name], [name]Micaiah[/name], or [name]Michelle[/name] for a girl or [name]Mitchell[/name], [name]Mikhail[/name], or [name]Micah[/name] for a boy.
Girls:
[name]Scarlet[/name] - Pretty, but it doesn’t sound very good with [name]Lynn[/name] because of the repeated “l” sound.
[name]Eliza[/name] - Pretty, and sounds great with [name]Lynn[/name].
[name]Amelia[/name] - NMS. Too frumpy for me.
[name]Ruby[/name] (not sure if it sounds good with [name]Lucy[/name]) - Ok, but kinda matchy-matchy with [name]Lucy[/name].
[name]Nora[/name] - [name]Lovely[/name].
[name]Alice[/name] - Nice, but doesn’t sound good with [name]Lynn[/name]
Boys:
[name]Jasper[/name] - OMG, Twilight!! Sorry, that’s the only reason this name is popular. It’s a great name, but the Twilight association is too much for me.
[name]Oliver[/name] - Great. [name]Oliver[/name] [name]Michael[/name] sounds fantastic.
[name]Ronan[/name] - NMS. Sounds odd with a classic name like [name]Michael[/name].
[name]Ronald[/name] nn [name]Ronnie[/name] (after my father) - Ok. NMS.
[name]Sebastian[/name] - Nice. [name]Kinda[/name] trendy, if that matters to you guys. Sounds good with [name]Michael[/name].
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks[/QUOTE]
Second the suggestion of [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Lynn[/name]! [name]Alice[/name] would be nice with [name]Lucy[/name] as well, how about [name]Alice[/name] [name]Rosaline[/name]? Very pretty [name]IMO[/name] As for boys, I like [name]Jasper[/name] the most. [name]Jasper[/name] [name]Michael[/name] would be great I think:)
Your girls names are GORGEOUS! I think [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Amelia[/name] is perfect! I think [name]Oliver[/name] is my favorite of the boy choices.
‘[name]Lynn[/name]’ names what the [name]Lynn[/name] spelling look terribly tacky to me, to be honest. [name]Linette[/name] ([name]Lynnette[/name]) could be an option for you?
Girls:
[name]Scarlet[/name] - Eh, not a fan with only one T.
[name]Eliza[/name] - [name]Don[/name]'t like this.
[name]Amelia[/name] - This is cute.
[name]Ruby[/name] (not sure if it sounds good with [name]Lucy[/name]) - Doesn’t sound good with [name]Lucy[/name].
[name]Nora[/name] - [name]Lovely[/name] names and sounds fabulous with [name]Lucy[/name].
[name]Alice[/name] - Fantastic name and sounds great with [name]Lucy[/name].
Boys:
[name]Jasper[/name] - Too trendy.
[name]Oliver[/name] - Nice name! Sounds good with [name]Lucy[/name].
[name]Ronan[/name] - Fantastic! [name]Love[/name] it.
[name]Ronald[/name] nn [name]Ronnie[/name] (after my father) - Not a fan.
[name]Sebastian[/name] - Nice.
Girls:
[name]Scarlet[/name] I think it kind of sounds like a hooker. Sorry
[name]Eliza[/name] [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Eliza[/name]. It is cute and has a lot of spunk
[name]Amelia[/name] Is also really pretty.
[name]Ruby[/name] (not sure if it sounds good with [name]Lucy[/name]) I am not really a huge fan of [name]Ruby[/name]
[name]Nora[/name] I like it
[name]Alice[/name] [name]Don[/name]'t like [name]Alice[/name] at all
Boys:
[name]Jasper[/name] I really like [name]Jasper[/name].
[name]Oliver[/name] I like it
[name]Ronan[/name] NMS
[name]Ronald[/name] nn [name]Ronnie[/name] (after my father) PLEASE NO
[name]Sebastian[/name] I like it
[name]Scarlet[/name] - [name]SCARlet[/name]. Need I say more>
[name]Eliza[/name] - lovely! [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Lynn[/name] would be a beautiful choice!
[name]Amelia[/name] - again, lovely! [name]Amelia[/name] [name]Lynn[/name]!
[name]Ruby[/name] (not sure if it sounds good with [name]Lucy[/name]) - I agree, too matchey. Together, both names are too cutesy.
[name]Nora[/name] - [name]Nora[/name] [name]Lynn[/name] is another beautiful choice! I love [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Nora[/name] together.
[name]Alice[/name] - [name]Alice[/name] is beautiful, but “[name]Alice[/name] [name]Lynn[/name]” sounds like [name]Allison[/name]. Maybe that’s not a problem though?
Favourites (in general AND with [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Dianne[/name]):
[name]Nora[/name] [name]Lynn[/name]
[name]Eliza[/name] [name]Lynn[/name]
[name]Amelia[/name] [name]Lynn[/name]
[name]Jasper[/name] - cool choice!
[name]Oliver[/name] - sounds brilliant with [name]Michael[/name] in the middle!
[name]Ronan[/name] - [name]Love[/name]!
[name]Ronald[/name] nn [name]Ronnie[/name] (after my father) - would be nice as a second mn, but [name]Ronald[/name] just isn’t ready for a comeback as a first name.
[name]Sebastian[/name] - not a favourite of mine, but sounds nice with [name]Michael[/name].
I love the suggestion of [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Lynn[/name]! [name]Eliza[/name] is one of my favorite names.
My absolute favorite is [name]Nora[/name].[name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Nora[/name] would be perfect as sisters!To honor your husband’s mother-how about [name]Evelyn[/name]? [name]Nora[/name] [name]Evelyn[/name]? I think [name]Nora[/name] [name]Evelyn[/name] is lovely!
As for boys names, I also love the suggestion of [name]Oliver[/name] [name]Michael[/name]!
As for boys, I like [name]Jasper[/name] the most. [name]Jasper[/name] [name]Michael[/name] would be great I think:)
