Current children are [name]Jack[/name] and [name]Eva[/name] (nn [name]Evie[/name]). We are having another girl and are still so stuck on a name for her. We lean to more classic names that hopefully have a nickname option. I just discovered this board, so I wanted to see if anyone here has any ideas. Two we are considering are [name]Juliet[/name] and [name]Noelle[/name], thoughts? This baby has been the hardest to name (ESP. Since my husband hates my first choice, [name]Grace[/name]/[name]Gracie[/name].).
I love [name]Jack[/name] and [name]Eva[/name]. [name]Juliet[/name] would share the same initial as [name]Jack[/name] and [name]Noelle[/name] just doesn’t make the grade as a first name (maybe as a mn choice). Without knowing your surname, here are some suggestions.
[name]Charlotte[/name] nn [name]Charlie[/name] or [name]Lottie[/name]
[name]Mary[/name] nn [name]Molly[/name], [name]Polly[/name], [name]Mamie[/name], [name]May[/name] etc…
[name]Bridget[/name] nn [name]Bridie[/name] or [name]Birdie[/name]
[name]Caroline[/name] nn [name]Caro[/name], [name]Carrie[/name] or [name]Rollo[/name]
[name]Catherine[/name]/[name]Katherine[/name] nn [name]Kate[/name] or [name]Katie[/name]
[name]Tessa[/name] nn [name]Tess[/name]
[name]Clara[/name] nn [name]Claire[/name]
[name]Phoebe[/name] nn [name]Bea[/name]
[name]Lillian[/name] nn [name]Lily[/name]
[name]Rosalie[/name] nn [name]Rosie[/name]
[name]Isabel[/name] nn [name]Izzy[/name] or [name]Belle[/name]
[name]Alice[/name] nn [name]Allie[/name]
[name]Louisa[/name]/[name]Louise[/name] nn [name]Lulu[/name]
[name]Georgia[/name] nn [name]Georgie[/name]
[name]Beatrix[/name] nn [name]Bee[/name] or [name]Trixie[/name]
[name]Felicity[/name] nn Fliss or [name]Flick[/name]
[name]Abigail[/name] nn [name]Abbey[/name]
[name]Amelia[/name] nn [name]Lia[/name] or [name]Amy[/name]
[name]Harriet[/name] nn [name]Hattie[/name]
[name]Violet[/name] nn [name]Lettie[/name]
[name]Madeleine[/name] nn [name]Maddie[/name]
[name]Lucy[/name] nn [name]Lou[/name]
[name]Matilda[/name] nn [name]Tilly[/name] or [name]Mattie[/name]
I love [name]Juliet[/name] AND [name]Noelle[/name]. A lot of great options were already suggested, but here are a few more:
[name]Marguerite[/name] nn [name]Rita[/name]
[name]Vivienne[/name] nn [name]Viv[/name], [name]Vivi[/name]
[name]Annabelle[/name] nn [name]Annie[/name], [name]Belle[/name]
[name]Anna[/name] nn [name]Annie[/name]
[name]Beatrice[/name] nn [name]Bea[/name]
[name]Elisabeth[/name] nn [name]Elle[/name], [name]Betsy[/name], [name]Beth[/name], [name]Bette[/name], [name]Elise[/name]
[name]Marianne[/name] nn [name]Mary[/name]
[name]Rosalie[/name] nn [name]Rosie[/name]
[name]Adelaide[/name] nn [name]Addie[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] nn [name]Penny[/name]
[name]Sarah[/name] nn [name]Sadie[/name]
[name]Virginia[/name] nn [name]Ginnie[/name]
Thank you, spunkidoodle! So many suggestions I love, [name]Annie[/name] is even my name so I won’t use it. I’d love to use [name]Anne[/name] as a middle name!
I love lots of those suggested names, as well as your choices!
[name]Olive[/name] nn [name]Liv[/name]
nn [name]Nel[/name] for spundiedoodle’s [name]Penelope[/name]
[name]Flora[/name]
[name]Daphne[/name] nn [name]Dede[/name]
Thanks, all! Oh, how I love [name]Elizabeth[/name]…but that is my daughter [name]Eva[/name]'s middle name (as well as my sil’s name). If I ever knew I’d have 2 daughters, that probably would have been an awesome choice for a first name! (It is also my mn, and my late mom’s mn.) Right now I think we are leaning toward [name]Noelle[/name]/[name]Ellie[/name]. Yes, naming a child with my husband is tough!! He has very bad taste. ;). I’ll keep checking back because we certainly haven’t closed the book…
[name]Jack[/name] and [name]Eva[/name] are both short, and on the board in [name]England[/name] ([name]Jack[/name], [name]Evie[/name], and [name]Grace[/name] are all in the top ten - how ironic :))To fit the sibset, I might consider…
[name]Lily[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name]
[name]Mia[/name]
[name]Sophie[/name]
[name]Chloe[/name]
[name]Lucy[/name] (already been said, I second)
[name]Holly[/name]
I like the name.[name]Juliet[/name] better than [name]Noelle[/name] but not sure what nn you’d use for it other than [name]Julie[/name], and I like.[name]Juliet[/name] a lot better than [name]Julie[/name]. Curious what your feelings were on [name]Juliet[/name] and nn. I don’t dislike [name]Noelle[/name] however, and thought [name]Ellie[/name] was both a cute and clever nn to get from it. Although [name]Ellie[/name] is becoming quite popular these days, at least in the States.
Another thought I had for you was [name]Katherine[/name] nn [name]Kat[/name]. I thought the one syllable would make a nice bookend to the trio with one syllable [name]Jack[/name] obviously being on the other side. And being 3 letters it will look nice next to [name]Eva[/name]. All are short cute and classic. My prediction though is that [name]Kat[/name].will have a love/hate response. People will either love it because its a classic nn but underused these days. Or they will be mad at me for.even suggesting it b/c its not as outwardly elegant or dramatic as [name]Juliet[/name] or [name]Noelle[/name]. But dont forget the name I’m actually suggesting is [name]Katherine[/name]. And if you don’t like [name]Kat[/name] I think [name]Kate[/name] would work just as well. [name]Even[/name] if it is getting really popular, all the good ones are. But personally, I think Kat could be cute.
I love both of your options, [name]Noelle[/name] a bit more, perhaps it’s because of a friend I met awhile ago who was just lovely.
Other names are: [name]Sophia[/name], [name]Charlotte[/name], [name]Lucinda[/name], [name]Kit[/name] and [name]Marcie[/name]
Good [name]Luck[/name]
Kitkat26, I do really love [name]Juliet[/name]. My sister’s name is [name]Julie[/name], so that makes it tough to get a nickname from [name]Juliet[/name]. Her nn is [name]Jules[/name]. So…if we went with that, it would be a no-nickname name. And I have found that tough with my son, [name]Jack[/name], whose name really has no nickname. We are not sure how aggravating that would be…since I tend to like having a nn option! We aren’t crazy about [name]Lettie[/name] as a nn for [name]Juliet[/name]. Ugh. This has been a tough little lady to name!
With siblings [name]Jack[/name] and [name]Eva[/name] i can vision a baby sister to be:
[name]Mila[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name]
[name]Chloe[/name]
[name]Libby[/name]
[name]Holly[/name]
[name]Sadie[/name]
My husband and I are really warming up to [name]Kate[/name]…just [name]Kate[/name], no longer form. Thanks for the recommendation! Any good, longer, middle name suggestions? Out last name has two t’s, so I’d like to avoid that sound in the middle name. I am kind of excited that we might have found the name!!
I love [name]Jack[/name] and [name]Eva[/name] together, so cute! I second what Jamie1881 said about the length, I feel like with two short names you’re better off sticking with something shorter. [name]Juliet[/name] is awesome, why not [name]Juliet[/name] [name]Grace[/name]? I love “E names,” and with [name]Eva[/name] you could go with another short E:
[name]Ellis[/name] ([name]Ellie[/name], [name]Elle[/name])
[name]Eden[/name]
[name]Elise[/name], or [name]Elsie[/name]
[name]Emerson[/name] (a little long imo, but you could shorten it to [name]Em[/name], [name]Emma[/name], or [name]Emmy[/name])
Off the E, onto L names…
[name]Lydia[/name] may be cute, or [name]Lane[/name], or [name]Linden[/name].
[name]Eva[/name], [name]Jack[/name] and [name]Lane[/name] would be adorable! (nn, [name]Lanie[/name]?)
Something short and sweet such as…
[name]Wren[/name]
[name]Belle[/name]
[name]Gwen[/name]
[name]Brynn[/name]
[name]Iris[/name]
[name]Ivy[/name]
[name]Nora[/name]
I think [name]Kate[/name] would be adorable with [name]Eva[/name] and [name]Jack[/name]! Although I would name her [name]Katherine[/name] and call her [name]Kate[/name]. I love the name [name]Katherine[/name] plus it is easier to find a middle name for it. Good luck!
I think that [name]Juliette[/name] or [name]Noelle[/name] would be too long with [name]Jack[/name] and [name]Eva[/name] so:
[name]Kate[/name]
[name]Alice[/name]
[name]Cassie[/name]
[name]Calla[/name]
