Help with baby #3

General Name Discussion

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] berries!

I’m pregnant with number 3. As with my other two, I’m not finding out the gender until we meet little one.

I already have:
[name_m]Harrison[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m]
[name_u]Piper[/name_u] [name_f]Joy[/name_f]

Please help with a third! Middle name will be either [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] or [name_f]Rebekah[/name_f].

Hubs and I like [name_m]Lincoln[/name_m] for a boy. Girls names we’ve discussed are [name_f]Frances[/name_f] and [name_f]Esther[/name_f].

Help with our sib-set please!

[name_m]Lincoln[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] goes perfectly with your others! I think [name_f]Frances[/name_f] works for a girl, but [name_f]Esther[/name_f] is too dated for [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] and [name_u]Piper[/name_u], in my opinion. [name_f]Frances[/name_f] [name_f]Rebekah[/name_f] flows nicely together.

Thank you for your input! I agree.

We have just found [name_f]Joni[/name_f] too. [name_f]Joni[/name_f] [name_f]Rebekah[/name_f]. What do you think?

Is it pronounced like [name_m]Johnny[/name_m]? If so, I would say too masculine, especially with sister [name_u]Piper[/name_u]. If it’s pronounced [name_u]Joan[/name_u]-ee then I would suggest the [name_f]Joanie[/name_f] spelling so it doesn’t get mispronounced. Or maybe Joney? I think the nickname [name_u]JoJo[/name_u] is really cute. What about [name_f]Jolie[/name_f]? or [name_f]Janie[/name_f]?

It’s [name_f]Joni[/name_f] ([name_f]Joanie[/name_f]) after [name_f]Joni[/name_f] [name_m]Mitchell[/name_m].

Thanks so much for your input. :grin:

I really like [name_f]Joni[/name_f] with [name_u]Piper[/name_u] and [name_m]Harrison[/name_m]! [name_f]Joanie[/name_f] spelling is good for avoiding pronounciation issues.
Welldone on finding a unique name but not weird name! (Jealous haha)

I don’t think [name_f]Esther[/name_f] is dated, just less modern and popular than [name_u]Piper[/name_u] and [name_m]Harrison[/name_m]. [name_f]Joni[/name_f] I like but it is pretty 1960s to me (BF and I both have an Aunt [name_f]Joanie[/name_f]).

[name_f]Eve[/name_f]
[name_f]Georgia[/name_f]
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Judith[/name_f]
[name_u]June[/name_u]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]

[name_m]Bennett[/name_m]
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m]
[name_m]Graham[/name_m]
[name_m]Maxwell[/name_m]
[name_m]Miles[/name_m]
[name_m]Wesley[/name_m]

Thank you guys. I get the 60s vibe of [name_f]Joanie[/name_f] / [name_f]Joni[/name_f], but it’s not really carried over here to the UK.

[name_u]Love[/name_u] the names you have at the mo.
Girls I also think you may like are:
[name_f]Edie[/name_f]
[name_f]Effie[/name_f]
[name_f]Heather[/name_f]
[name_f]Poppy[/name_f]

Boys (not feeling [name_m]Lincoln[/name_m])
Perhaps…
[name_m]Charles[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m]
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m]
[name_m]Benjamin[/name_m]
[name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] (personal fav)

[name_u]Avery[/name_u] [name_f]Rebekah[/name_f]

oh man please do [name_f]Joni[/name_f] [name_f]Rebekah[/name_f]. So cute and cool. I think the [name_f]Joni[/name_f] [name_m]Mitchell[/name_m] spelling is self explanatory myself.

[name_m]Lincoln[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] is really nice too.

[name_f]Macy[/name_f] [name_f]Sue[/name_f]. We found out it’s a girl. :smiley:

[name_f]Esther[/name_f] [name_f]Rebekah[/name_f] is my favorite! I think it is amazing that you are honoring your own name, most mothers don’t. [name_f]Frances[/name_f] is also beautiful but it feels more middle name-ish to me. :slight_smile:
