[name]Susan[/name], what a crazy dream! [name]Imagine[/name] if needing to have names picked was the case! [name]Glad[/name] you love my name although I can’t take the credit. It was my mum’s choice, her name is [name]Susan[/name] actually. And your son is [name]Peter[/name], right? That is my dad’s name.
I too am spending too much time on nameberry, I have been going through all the old posts!! (very embarressed). It annoys my husband but I think he is too scared of me at the moment to say anything, haha.
I’m sure everything will work out really well for you. All your options are lovely. My personal favourite is [name]Clementine[/name] with [name]Genevieve[/name] I also really like [name]Matilda[/name]. [name]Esme[/name] is nice but, as someone else said, is a little weak and just nice compared to [name]Genevieve[/name] which is really stunning.
Good luck with everything!
I think [name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Sophie[/name] sounds great – and I don’t think it’s a crazy stretch to have [name]Sophie[/name]'s nickname be [name]Poppy[/name].
If you are considering [name]Esme[/name] but don’t like how it sounds with [name]Genevieve[/name] then maybe you could consider [name]Esmerelda[/name]? And have [name]Esme[/name] as a nickname… though I see how that doesn’t really work if you want to call her [name]Poppy[/name]; it’s just an alternitive! Congrats and good luck! Cheers!
Thank you namedame and beverlyanna. I like [name]Sophie[/name] but would prefer something a bit less popular.
I really love [name]Esmerelda[/name] but I don’t know… It seems like a name with big expectations.
I am leaning more towards [name]Clementine[/name] or [name]Mirabelle[/name] or something like that now.
I will keep you posted and thanks for the suggestions!
Still love [name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Clementine[/name]. Also [name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Matilda[/name].
I was thinking about [name]Genevieve[/name] and I also love:
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Anneliese[/name] - great match!
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Imogen[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Francesca[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Magdalena[/name] - but this looks small and scrunchy next to [name]Genevieve[/name].
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Marianna[/name] - ditto
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Winifred[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Clotilda[/name] - small and scrunchy. Why?
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Rosamond[/name] - visually this works for me. Sounds great, too.
It’s hard to match [name]Genevieve[/name] with another name because [name]Genevieve[/name] is so stunning! A lot of names look really small next to [name]Genevieve[/name]. But the many of the above names match [name]Genevieve[/name]'s energy, I think.
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Anneliese[/name] - this is so great!
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Imogen[/name]- I don’t like [name]Imogen[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Francesca[/name]- love [name]Francesca[/name]! nn [name]Frankie[/name] is sooo cute.
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Magdalena[/name] - I think this and [name]Marianna[/name] seem very old ladyish paired with [name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Marianna[/name] - see above
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Winifred[/name]- I like [name]Winifred[/name] but it’s a bit weird for me…
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Clotilda[/name] - Clot?
[name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Rosamond[/name] - I really like this but unfortunately there is already a [name]Rose[/name] in our family who no one really likes…
I agree that [name]Genevieve[/name] is hard to match, it makes things seem very small like you said.
I’ll let you know what I decide, thanks again for the great suggestions!
I think the reason [name]Genevieve[/name] makes other names seem so small is because a lot of the letters in [name]Genevieve[/name] have big shapes. The “G”, the four “e’s”, and the n all are rounded with spaces in the middle. The two “v’s” point upward and get bigger as they go up. So the only small letter in [name]Genevieve[/name] is the “i”. That’s why [name]Anneliese[/name] and [name]Francesca[/name] work so well with [name]Genevieve[/name]. [name]Anneliese[/name] only has two skinny letters - the “l” and the “i”. [name]Francesca[/name] only has one skinny letter - the “r”. There are other ways to spell [name]Anneliese[/name], but I prefer this spelling with [name]Genevieve[/name] because this spelling has three “e’s” to match [name]Genevieve[/name]'s energy.
[name]Susan[/name], I agree with what you said, it has alot of very dominant letters.
What do you think of [name]Clementine[/name]? I think it has enough energy to match, do you?

Yes, I think [name]Clementine[/name] works really well. It has got a big round “C”, three “e’s”, a great big “m”, and two “n’s”. The skinny letters are “l” and “i”. Plus [name]Clementine[/name] has a whimsical sound just like [name]Genevieve[/name] does, three syllables, and two of the same consonants (n’s). [name]Love[/name] it so much! I like the nn [name]Clemmy[/name], but not everyone does. I think another poster said you could call her [name]Cleo[/name], and I agree. I love the nn [name]Vivi[/name] for [name]Genevieve[/name]. Can’t remember which nn is your fave. [name]Love[/name] [name]Evie[/name], too.
I think [name]Clementine[/name] is every bit as gorgeous, wonderful, elegant, powerful, feminine, and sophisticated as [name]Genevieve[/name]. I think [name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Clementine[/name] are a fantastic pair!
I am lucky. I am thankful that I have no people in my life that have been so negative that they hold any power over me. And there are no names that remind me of anger or hate. Seeing someone I love forgive their Mom years before and seeing this grace, this forgiveness, gives me hope for you.

[name]Hi[/name] misshouse, thanks for your kind words! I ended up calling the girls (born on the 8th)
[name]Genevieve[/name] [name]May[/name] and [name]Mirabelle[/name] [name]Jane[/name]. The middles are family names. I wrote about how I came to those names on another post, called ‘[name]Hi[/name]!’.
And [name]Rollo[/name] thanks for your suggestions, sorry I didn’t get them earlier but I know you posted to me on the final post. I love [name]Juliet[/name]!
