Help us round out our name list, please! Out of the first trimester and ready to get serious about names!

General Name Discussion

Hello!

I am officially out of the first trimester, so we are ramping up talks about names. [name_f]My[/name_f] husband and I are having a hard time finding names that both of us like, so far this is what we have agreed upon:

  • [name_f]Margot[/name_f]
  • [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
  • [name_f]Lily[/name_f]
  • [name_m]Harrison[/name_m]
  • [name_u]Finn[/name_u]

[name_f]My[/name_f] husband likes more traditional, vintage names (he loves [name_m]Walter[/name_m], but that is not a name I am a fan of) and I tend to like shorter, spunkier names (Remy was a fave for a boy of mine).

We’d like to have about three-five options for each gender and then will narrow them down when we meet our little one.

Would love any middle name suggestions along with any names you think we’d like. Two things we DO NOT want: v-heavy names, or anything that is very long-e heavy. The last name starts with a long e and is v-heavy.

Thanks so much!

[name_m]Hi[/name_m]!

Wow, I love so many of your suggestions! [name_u]Wren[/name_u] [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] is so lovely! As is [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Juliette[/name_f]!

I LOVE [name_u]Archer[/name_u] so much, but my husband is not so keen. He also wasn’t into [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] until I brought it up again weeks later, so maybe this will be a similar situation. If he agreed, I’d be so happy with [name_u]Archer[/name_u] [name_u]Finn[/name_u]!

Thank you for all of the suggestions!

Thank you for the suggestions! You definitely named a few that I already love, but have been vetoed because of close friends or family using them. [name_u]August[/name_u], [name_u]Milo[/name_u], [name_f]Thea[/name_f], and [name_u]Miles[/name_u] are unfortunately ones we can’t use because of that. [name_f]Greta[/name_f] and [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] are lovely! I will run those by my husband to see what he thinks. Thank you!

Wow! Thank you for all of these suggestions! So many lovely choices! Ugh, I’m still so sad about [name_u]Remy[/name_u] haha. It just doesn’t sound great with our last name, unfortunately. :pensive:

[name_f]Iris[/name_f] and [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] are my faves from your suggestions. Thank you! :slightly_smiling_face:

Thank you! [name_u]Beck[/name_u] is so lovely! I think [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] [name_u]Beck[/name_u] is a great combo. [name_f]Leona[/name_f] is one I have suggested multiple times, but he’s been very lukewarm about. I’ll circle back in a few weeks.
