[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all,
Expecting a daughter in [name_u]December[/name_u] and the hubs and I are really stuck on names. We have a son [name_m]Ian[/name_m], name doesn’t have to flow perfectly with his, last name starts with a ‘K’. The only three we agree on (but aren’t sold on) are [name_f]Nina[/name_f], [name_f]Margot[/name_f] and [name_f]Iris[/name_f]. I like [name_f]Maggie[/name_f] & [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] as well, hubs isn’t sure.
We are open to any and all suggestions! Any input would be great!
Thanks:)
My favorites are [name_f]Iris[/name_f] and [name_f]Margot[/name_f]. I’m not sure if I would use [name_f]Iris[/name_f] with [name_m]Ian[/name_m] though, however I do really like [name_m]Ian[/name_m] and [name_f]Margot[/name_f].
Not really sure what your style is, but here are some names your ideas made me think of:
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f]
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Peggy[/name_f]
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Erica[/name_f]
[name_u]Evelyn[/name_u]
[name_f]Emily[/name_f]
[name_f]Emma[/name_f]
[name_f]Gwen[/name_f]
[name_f]Penelope[/name_f]
[name_f]Laurel[/name_f]
[name_f]Sarah[/name_f]
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f]
Very
[name_f]Jillian[/name_f]
[name_f]Julia[/name_f]
[name_m]Ian[/name_m] and [name_f]Margot[/name_f]! [name_u]Love[/name_u] it, how about [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f]?
Congrats to you and welcome to Nameberry! Here are my thoughts on your list.
I would eliminate [name_f]Nina[/name_f] because that name contains all of the letters of [name_m]Ian[/name_m]. I would eliminate [name_f]Iris[/name_f] because it shares an initial with [name_m]Ian[/name_m]. [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] K would be alliterative. My favourite is [name_f]Margot[/name_f]. I think a shorter name would be the best option. Here are some other suggestions.
[name_f]Maura[/name_f]
[name_f]Bridget[/name_f]
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_f]Ada[/name_f]
[name_f]Willa[/name_f]
[name_f]Maya[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f]
[name_f]Zara[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f]
[name_f]Tessa[/name_f]
[name_f]Faye[/name_f]
[name_f]Nora[/name_f]
[name_f]Esme[/name_f]
[name_f]Petra[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Vera[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
[name_f]Mabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Greta[/name_f]
[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]
[name_f]Tara[/name_f]
[name_f]Hazel[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Adele[/name_f]
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f]
I like [name_m]Ian[/name_m] and [name_f]Iris[/name_f]!
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] is my favorite with [name_m]Ian[/name_m].
Another vote for [name_m]Ian[/name_m] and [name_f]Iris[/name_f]. 
I like all three names; Nina is really elegant a pretty ballerina name, Margot is a wholesome upbeat name and I like the Maggie nickname, and Iris is also very snappy and sweet. I would use all three names but wouldn’t use Iris with Ian doesn’t work well. I think the best name to be teamed with Ian is Margot. Similar vibe. Caroline is also lovely too a really lovely southern belle name but Margot works better.
