General Name Discussion
1

Ok guys so I am not really loving my short list as much anymore. I feel like my style is all over the place wich doesn’t bother me per say, I just dont want names that would look wacky with [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_u]Rory[/name_u] & [name_f]Georgia[/name_f].
Which 3 are best from each gender? Which 1 from each gender go best with [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_u]Rory[/name_u] and [name_f]Georgia[/name_f]? Any suggestions?

Girls [name_m]Long[/name_m] List
[name_f]Maia[/name_f]
[name_f]Athena[/name_f]
[name_f]Chandra[/name_f]
[name_f]Lydia[/name_f]
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] nn [name_m]Lenny[/name_m]
[name_f]Mei[/name_f] - mn only?

Boys [name_m]Long[/name_m] List
[name_m]Milo[/name_m] - too soft sounding?
[name_m]Enzo[/name_m]
[name_m]Teague[/name_m] - too many pronounciations?
[name_m]Cormac[/name_m] nn [name_m]Mac[/name_m]
[name_m]Ciaran[/name_m]/ [name_u]Kieran[/name_u]
[name_m]Ian[/name_m]
[name_m]Graham[/name_m]
[name_m]Alaric[/name_m]
[name_u]Dorian[/name_u]
[name_m]Peter[/name_m]

Mns:
[name_f]Marielle[/name_f], [name_f]Mary[/name_f], [name_f]Gloria[/name_f], [name_f]Florence[/name_f], [name_f]Eulalie[/name_f]. [name_f]Eudora[/name_f], [name_f]Christine[/name_f], [name_f]Isla[/name_f], [name_f]Iris[/name_f]

Top three from each gender: [name_f]Maia[/name_f], [name_f]Chandra[/name_f], [name_f]Lydia[/name_f]; [name_m]Milo[/name_m], [name_m]Enzo[/name_m], and [name_m]Cormac[/name_m].

I think [name_f]Maia[/name_f] and [name_m]Cormac[/name_m] are the best fits with [name_f]Georgia[/name_f], [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], and [name_u]Rory[/name_u].

With [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_u]Rory[/name_u] & [name_f]Georgia[/name_f], I like [name_f]Maia[/name_f] or [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] from the girls list and [name_u]Kieran[/name_u] or [name_m]Cormac[/name_m] from the boys list.

[name_f]Maia[/name_f], [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] and [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] are great with [name_u]Rory[/name_u], [name_f]Sadie[/name_f] and [name_f]Georgia[/name_f]. [name_f]Maia[/name_f] would be my top choice
[name_f]Maia[/name_f] [name_f]Florence[/name_f], [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] [name_f]Eulalie[/name_f] and [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f]

[name_f]Etta[/name_f]
[name_f]Alina[/name_f]

[name_m]Cormac[/name_m], [name_m]Milo[/name_m], and [name_m]Ian[/name_m] are brilliant. [name_m]Cormac[/name_m] would be my top choice
[name_m]Cormac[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_m]Milo[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m] and [name_m]Ian[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m].

If your looking specifically for names that go with [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_u]Rory[/name_u], and [name_f]Georgia[/name_f] then I’d say [name_f]Maia[/name_f] is the best on from your girls list. Also I think [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], and [name_f]Chandra[/name_f] would work well too.

[name_f]Mei[/name_f] (with this spelling) I think would work best as a middle, but if you spelt is [name_f]Mae[/name_f] the. It would go great with your kids’ names

For your boys list I think [name_m]Milo[/name_m], [name_m]Cormac[/name_m], and [name_m]Ian[/name_m] would go well with [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_u]Rory[/name_u], and [name_f]Georgia[/name_f].

I think since [name_u]Rory[/name_u] is a more uncommon name then you could pick a more uncommon name for a boy. But since the girls’ names aren’t as uncommon then i’d Go with a more common name :slight_smile:

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.

[name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_u]Rory[/name_u] & [name_f]Georgia[/name_f] are nice. Here are my thoughts on your lists:

Girls-

[name_f]Maia[/name_f]-I like this. I think it’s a tad exotic w/your crew, but it’s nice enough. I’m glad that you spelled it this way. It’s so much prettier than [name_f]Maya[/name_f] in my opinion.

[name_f]Athena[/name_f]-I’m not sure why, but I don’t care for this. It just sounds kind of heavy.

[name_f]Chandra[/name_f]-Same as above. And maybe a little stripper sounding.:oops:

[name_f]Lydia[/name_f]-This is pretty. I don’t love it, but it’s nice just like [name_f]Maia[/name_f]. Nothing wrong w/it; just doesn’t sparkle.

[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] nn [name_m]Lenny[/name_m]-I love love [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], but [name_m]Lenny[/name_m] sounds a little too unisex to me. Too boyish for a girl, yet a little too girly for a boy. I love [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] nn [name_f]Nellie[/name_f], & think that sounds great w/[name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_u]Rory[/name_u] & [name_f]Georgia[/name_f].

[name_f]Mei[/name_f]-Yeah…this spelling may be confusing to some people. [name_f]May[/name_f] spelled that way kind of works.

Boys-

[name_m]Milo[/name_m] -This is adorable. I love it w/[name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_u]Rory[/name_u] & [name_f]Georgia[/name_f]. [name_m]Just[/name_m] perfect. It’s not too soft; just fun & boyish.

[name_m]Enzo[/name_m]-I like this as a nn for [name_m]Lorenzo[/name_m], but it’s a little too ethnic w/your crew.

[name_m]Teague[/name_m]-I think it’s ‘Tayg’? Yeah, the pronunciation is a little confusing. I don’t care much for this.

[name_m]Cormac[/name_m] nn [name_m]Mac[/name_m]-Kind of fun & different. I like it for you.

[name_m]Ciaran[/name_m]/ [name_u]Kieran[/name_u]-I love it spelled [name_m]Ciaran[/name_m]. Very handsome yet sweet.

[name_m]Ian[/name_m]-I like it spelled [name_m]Iain[/name_m]. Seems more authentic. It’s not super exciting either way, but not bad.

[name_m]Graham[/name_m]-This is okay. I think the style works pretty well for you, but it’s not amazing. I certainly prefer [name_m]Graeme[/name_m]. Less like the cracker.

[name_m]Alaric[/name_m]-This is a little too dramatic. I’m not sure I care for it.

[name_u]Dorian[/name_u]-This is too boyish for a girl & too girly for a boy.

[name_m]Peter[/name_m]-[name_u]Love[/name_u] it! An underused classic. [name_m]Just[/name_m] charming.

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

[name_f]Athena[/name_f] [name_f]Mei[/name_f] would be stunning! I also love [name_m]Milo[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m] :slight_smile:

8

I love [name_f]Athena[/name_f], [name_f]Lydia[/name_f], and [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] from your girls list, and [name_m]Milo[/name_m], [name_m]Enzo[/name_m], and [name_m]Ciaran[/name_m] from your boys.

Style-wise, for girls, [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] goes best with [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_u]Rory[/name_u] and [name_f]Georgia[/name_f], but [name_f]Athena[/name_f] fits wonderfully too.

For boys, I’d probably say [name_m]Milo[/name_m] fits the best, with [name_m]Enzo[/name_m] close second.

[name_f]Athena[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f] is a stunning combination. [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f] too. [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f] could also work.

[name_m]Milo[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m], [name_m]Enzo[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u], or [name_m]Ciaran[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] are handsome.

Thank you everyone!

[name_f]Lydia[/name_f] is by far my #1 in itself, we hesitate because we wonder if “[name_f]Lydie[/name_f]”, which we dont live, would become used often.

[name_f]Maia[/name_f] I do also truly love and it seems yo be a hit here too.
I agree with the heaviness of [name_f]Chandra[/name_f] and [name_f]Athena[/name_f], maybe it is the mythology behind them? Which although I like, maybe it is too much.

[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] I like but the nickname game is again a struggle, we dont like [name_f]Nellie[/name_f] for us and there are so many [name_f]Ellie[/name_f]/Ellas.

[name_m]Cormac[/name_m] got so much love! It usually sits sidelined because I love it but worry about its usability for some reason.

[name_m]Milo[/name_m] also seems a favorite which puts me at ease too.

I like to fins balance in names so they aren’t “out there” but they also aren’t “trendy”

My favourite girls names are [name_f]Lydia[/name_f], [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] and [name_f]Maia[/name_f]. Though I don’t like the nickname [name_m]Lenny[/name_m] for [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f].
My favourite of your boys names are [name_m]Alaric[/name_m], [name_u]Kieran[/name_u] and [name_m]Enzo[/name_m].

[name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_u]Rory[/name_u], [name_f]Georgia[/name_f] and [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] sounds lovely. As does [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_u]Rory[/name_u], [name_f]Georgia[/name_f] and [name_m]Alaric[/name_m], though the nickname [name_u]Ricky[/name_u] could be confusing with [name_u]Rory[/name_u]. [name_m]Enzo[/name_m] might be safer.
My favourite middle names are [name_f]Florence[/name_f], [name_f]Iris[/name_f] and [name_f]Isla[/name_f], [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] and [name_u]Kai[/name_u].

Using my top first and middle names:
[name_f]Lydia[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f]
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Isla[/name_f]
[name_f]Maia[/name_f] [name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_m]Alaric[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]
[name_m]Keiran[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m]
[name_m]Enzo[/name_m] [name_u]Kai[/name_u]
