Hello, everyone. Around [name]Christmas[/name], I found out I was expecting not one but two babies, and my family and I began discussing names. However, my hubby and I are both very indecisive people, and so I asked for help on here. We found some great names with your help, but now we’ve got a new list because most of the names we liked were taken by close friends, neighbors, and relatives (maybe there’s something in the water in [name]St[/name]. [name]Louis[/name] because we’re all ridiculously fertile here!) Anyway, I’d like your thoughts on these names.
We cracked and found out that we’re having one girl, but baby B is being quite shy and not letting us see the gender. All of my kids-- [name]Leo[/name] [name]Sebastian[/name], [name]Henry[/name] [name]Edward[/name], [name]Jasper[/name] [name]Alaric[/name], and [name]Eliza[/name] [name]Vivienne[/name]-- are excited. The boys want another brother, but [name]Liza[/name] is so happy that she’s getting a little sister that she wants both of the babies to be girls. We’ll hopefully find out at my next appointment. Anyway, onto the names!
Girls…
[name]Nora[/name] [name]Juliet[/name]
[name]Violet[/name] [name]Arabella[/name]
[name]Phoebe[/name] [name]Matilda[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Amelia[/name]
[name]Rosalie[/name] [name]Jane[/name] ([name]Rosie[/name])
[name]Sylvia[/name] [name]Jane[/name]
[name]Clara[/name] ______
[name]Lucy[/name] [name]Isobel[/name]
Boys…
[name]Oliver[/name] [name]Beckett[/name]
[name]William[/name] [name]Jacoby[/name] ([name]Will[/name])
[name]Maxwell[/name] [name]Hugo[/name] ([name]Max[/name])
[name]Charles[/name] [name]Atticus[/name] ([name]Charlie[/name])
[name]Dexter[/name] ______
[name]Callum[/name] [name]Tobias[/name]
[name]Felix[/name] _____
We’d love opinions, pairings, and suggestions. Thanks!
[name]EDIT[/name]:
My appointment was this morning and it’s official–we’re adding a girl and a boy to our family. The twins are also going to be fraternal
Thanks for all the help! We’ve narrowed down our list of names based on your opinions and the kids’ thoughts on the names. All of them are really getting into naming their little brother and sister, which is neat to see. Anyway, what do you think of these?
Girls…
[name]Violet[/name] [name]Matilda[/name]–we thought that the delicate [name]Violet[/name] needed a spunky middle name. It might be a bit “t” heavy, though. Any other middle name suggestions?
[name]Phoebe[/name] [name]Matilda[/name]
[name]Clara[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name]–I absolutely love this combo–thanks to [name]Lemon[/name] or suggesting it. My only concern is that [name]Clara[/name] sounds and looks kind of dull.
Boys…
[name]Oliver[/name] [name]Beckett[/name]–I’m not sure if I like [name]Beckett[/name] (hubby suggested it) but I can’t find any other name that sounds decent with it. Suggestions?
[name]Maxwell[/name] [name]Hugo[/name]
[name]Charles[/name] [name]Atticus[/name]
Right now, our top pair is [name]Oliver[/name] and [name]Violet[/name]. [name]Maxwell[/name] and [name]Charles[/name] seem a bit bland compared to our other children’s names.
We’d love suggestions on other names that would work with [name]Violet[/name], [name]Phoebe[/name], or [name]Clara[/name].
Thanks again!
