Help with naming baby #2!

General Name Discussion

I’m newly pregnant but want to get a head start on finding a name. I have a son named [name_m]Eli[/name_m] and with his name, I just knew it was perfect. I had always loved it and didn’t give my husband much of a choice. Now it seems that all the names I’ve ever loved are just so so. It also doesn’t help that our last name starts with Sh, is one syllable and ends with an s, it’s also a word so this seems to rule out a lot of names I like, for example - [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Olive[/name_f] and any other color/word name.

I tend to like older names and want something that goes well with [name_m]Eli[/name_m]. I’m really lost on a girls name, [name_m]Wyatt[/name_m] would be my go to for a boy but it’s not a definite at this point. Opinions and suggestions would be much appreciated!

[name_m]Eli[/name_m] and [name_f]Fiona[/name_f] comes to mind first.
[name_f]Fiona[/name_f] has the same spark and charm as [name_m]Eli[/name_m] imo.
Here are some other ideas:
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Ingrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Ramona[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f]
[name_f]Naomi[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
[name_f]Clio[/name_f]/[name_f]Cleo[/name_f]
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f]
[name_f]Willa[/name_f]

[name_f]Do[/name_f] any catch your attention?

I love [name_f]Daphne[/name_f], my husband likes it too and that rarely happens. This was a possible choice before finding out [name_m]Eli[/name_m] was a boy, I still have this reservation with it and I don’t know why.
[name_f]Willa[/name_f] is really pretty and I like it with [name_m]Eli[/name_m]. A lot, actually. I can’t see my husband agreeing but I’m definitely mentioning it.
[name_f]Fiona[/name_f] is a great name but it has too much of a princess feel to me.
[name_f]Margot[/name_f], if I didn’t associate this with a woman I know I could really love it.

Great suggestions, thank you!
