We’re expecting our first baby, due in the summer, and trying to narrow down some names! Currently we’ve got the below (some DH isn’t particularly keen on…!) [name_f]Do[/name_f] you have any favourites or more suggestions? Thanks Berries! x
[name_f]Aurelie[/name_f] - pretty
[name_f]Aurie[/name_f] - sounds made up
[name_f]Florence[/name_f] (middle name)
[name_f]Indie[/name_f] - too trendy
[name_f]Iola[/name_f] - love! Not used enough
[name_f]Isolde[/name_f] - love!
[name_f]Maya[/name_f] - I know a lot of people love this name but I find it to be really generic
[name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] - pretty
[name_f]Phaedra[/name_f] - such a cool name
[name_f]Rumi[/name_f] - love!
[name_u]Scout[/name_u] (middle name)
[name_f]Theodora[/name_f] - so pretty but I don’t care for the shortform of [name_f]Thea[/name_f].
[name_f]Theora[/name_f] - this sounds clinical somehow
[name_f]Thora[/name_f] - such a cool name
[name_f]Rumi[/name_f] [name_u]Scout[/name_u] and [name_f]Rumi[/name_f] [name_f]Florence[/name_f] are both amazing names! I’m not sure any of the other ones I like best work with your middles, though. Maybe [name_f]Aurelie[/name_f] [name_u]Scout[/name_u].
[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Isolde[/name_f], [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f], [name_f]Theodora[/name_f] and [name_f]Florence[/name_f] and [name_f]Aurelie[/name_f].
I like [name_f]Aurelie[/name_f], [name_f]Thora[/name_f], and [name_f]Rumi[/name_f] best. [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] and [name_f]Isolde[/name_f] are also nice but maybe a little too literary and serious. I don’t love [name_u]Scout[/name_u] as a formal name but like [name_f]Florence[/name_f]. [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t love [name_f]Indie[/name_f], [name_f]Phaedra[/name_f], or [name_f]Theora[/name_f]. [name_f]Aurie[/name_f] feels more like a nickname.
[name_f]Aurelie[/name_f] - Not big on this, its too frilly for me. [name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] or [name_f]Amelie[/name_f]?
[name_f]Aurie[/name_f] - I actually like this more than [name_f]Aurelie[/name_f]. I would perhaps use [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] or [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f] and have [name_f]Aurie[/name_f] as a nickname.
[name_f]Indie[/name_f] - I [name_f]ADORE[/name_f] [name_f]Indie[/name_f]. She’s a new favourite of mine. I think she works great on her own but if you did want fuller names for her there’s [name_f]Indira[/name_f], [name_u]Indigo[/name_u], [name_f]Rosalind/name_f, or [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f]. Personally, I would use her as a full name
[name_f]Iola[/name_f] - [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t like this sorry
[name_f]Isolde[/name_f] - Prefer [name_f]Isolda[/name_f], [name_f]Isolde[/name_f] feels a lot more outdated and a little unfinished
[name_f]Maya[/name_f] - pronounced [name_f]May[/name_f]-uh, I really like it! But if you’re going for My-uh then spell it [name_f]Myah[/name_f] or [name_f]Miah[/name_f].
[name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] - I’ve never been a fan
[name_f]Phaedra[/name_f] - I quite like this, she’s different
[name_f]Rumi[/name_f] - I’d prefer [name_u]Remi[/name_u]/[name_u]Remy[/name_u]
[name_f]Theodora[/name_f] - I don’t like this, its too similar to [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] which is a boys name
[name_f]Theora[/name_f] - Would prefer [name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Thora[/name_f] - Dislike it, sorry.
