I’m currently 32 weeks pregnant and my DH and I have had a horrible time picking names mostly due to our differing opinions. He’s always told me he wants to stick with the traditional names since our other two children are [name_u]Noah[/name_u] and [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] ([name_f]Evie[/name_f]), but I wouldn’t mind going a little out of the box. For weeks we have been trying to figure it out and have been butting heads over it and then today he calls me and drops a name on me that makes me want to slap him. “What about Tessly?” Suddenly Mr. “I want traditional names” is giving me names he’s picked out of online news blogs. I am afraid we will never decide and our girls will be nameless
I keep saying we’re having a harder time agreeing on names this time round but having looked through my list from last time there were only four names we both liked! I guess I’m just having a harder time thinking of names I really like so if I manage and then DH vetoes it, I get a bit annoyed.
You will definitely settle on something eventually!
Oh I hope so this man is driving me nuts! Good luck to you as well. It was so easy the first two times for he and I and now it’s just a nightmare.
From your list in your signature, for twin girls:
[name_u]Madigan[/name_u] & [name_u]Leighton[/name_u]
[name_f]Felicity[/name_f] and [name_u]Auden[/name_u]
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] and [name_f]Willow[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] and [name_f]Willa[/name_f]
I suggest:
Harped
[name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Mallory[/name_f]
[name_f]Zara[/name_f]
[name_f]Chloe[/name_f]
First of all, [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] is a beautiful name and [name_u]Noah[/name_u] is adorable, so you two obviously have gotten it right before!!
While we are not expecting, my husband and I talk about names often and very very VERY rarely agree. We have very different styles too. Try writing out lists of your top 5 and have him do the same, then ask the other person to rank them in order of their favorite to least favorite. At least then you will have an idea of where his head is at in regards to your fav names, and you can go from there.
[name_m]Just[/name_m] keep plugging along, there is a name out there for you!
Yes, you did well with [name_u]Noah[/name_u] and [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f], so take heart! Tessly is nms and I don’t think it’s a great match for your sibset, but what about [name_f]Teresa[/name_f] nn [name_f]Tess[/name_f]/[name_f]Tessa[/name_f], [name_f]Tamsin[/name_f], [name_f]Cecily[/name_f], [name_f]Thais[/name_f], [name_f]Thisbe[/name_f], [name_f]Thalia[/name_f], [name_f]Jessamy[/name_f], or [name_f]Jessamine[/name_f]?
Here are my favorites from your list along with other names I think would work with your sibset:
[name_u]Noah[/name_u], [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f], and
[name_f]Philippa[/name_f] and [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f]
[name_f]Tamsin[/name_f] and [name_f]Isolde[/name_f]
[name_f]Esme[/name_f] and [name_f]Sybil[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] and [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
[name_f]Melodie[/name_f] and [name_u]Meredith[/name_u]
[name_f]Coraline[/name_f] and [name_f]Cressida[/name_f]
