Help! Sister for Adelaide

Name Advice
1

[name]Hi[/name] everyone! I need help finding a name that goes with my DD, [name]Adelaide[/name] [name]Ruby[/name]. Hubby & I share somewhat the similar taste in names. With the problem that he doesn’t care how popular a name is, & I care a lot. [name]Adelaide[/name] wasn’t popular when we picked it, even tho it’s picking up now. : ( He likes the names [name]Eleanor[/name], [name]Amelia[/name], & [name]Penelope[/name]. All great, beautiful names, but too popular for me, especially the 1st 2. I’m worried they’re this generations [name]Michelle[/name] and [name]Jessica[/name]. I like names like [name]Carolina[/name], [name]Elizabeth[/name], [name]Marianna[/name], [name]Sabine[/name]. We both like classic, feminine names that wouldn’t sound silly with the title [name]Queen[/name] or dr in front. Please help. Thanks

I like [name]Adelaide[/name] with [name]Amelia[/name]. I am reluctant to suggest it though, because then you will fall into a first initial trap. What if there are more children? I know this first hand. It happened to me.

What about [name]Emelia[/name]? A little different from all the Amelias and no first initial trap.

[name]Adelaide[/name] was my aunt’s name. My mothers name was [name]Eleanor[/name]. So you like the same names as my grandparents did. That sibling set was together for over 75 years. It works together. :slight_smile: My mom was a name nerd before the internet. She would have loved this.
