Input for Baby no. 4

Alrighty, this post will probably come off unhinged but I’m stumped. So, older siblings are [name_f]Tallulah[/name_f], [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] and [name_m]Wolf[/name_m] (g, g, b) and the newest/last born is coming early next year (a girl!).

[name_f]Tallulah[/name_f], [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] and [name_m]Wolf[/name_m] all happen to be names of local state parks/waterfalls. [name_f]My[/name_f] original girl list was topped by [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] and [name_f]Florence[/name_f] (also local parks but not ones we’ve visited, just happened to like the names).

#1: I like that they all begin with consonants, and would prefer that to continue.

#2: She definitely does not have to be a park, and I don’t really want it to just be for the sake of the ‘trend’, I care more about it sounding cohesive.

#3: I want it to be three or four syllables. I do not want it to be a noun like [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] or [name_m]Wolf[/name_m] (so, [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] gives me great pause because of that).

Right now I like [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f], [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f], [name_f]Juno[/name_f] (even tho it’s 2 syllables) and [name_f]Juniper[/name_f] (even tho it’s a noun). [name_f]Cosima[/name_f], [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] (breaks rule #1), [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] and [name_f]Nimue[/name_f] are also floating in my head. I feel like none of them are exciting me right now!

I’m fully aware my self imposed rules are very silly but this girl is our bookend baby and I want her name to sound great! Help :confounded:

I like [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] [name_f]June[/name_f]! You could take the [name_f]June[/name_f] sound from [name_f]Juno[/name_f] and get 2 names you like. [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] and [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] as sisters sounds so wonderful!

I also like [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] a great deal, but more as a middle. [name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] who goes by “Wren” from Flo-REN-ce is adorable!

Congratulations!
I love Cordelia and Magnolia with Tallulah, Ruby, and Wolf! Using Cordelia could be a nice connection with Tallulah so she’s the not the only one without an English noun name. I don’t think many people would notice that three of the names are English nouns and one isn’t, but I can certainly understand why you’d want a name that’s not a noun to loop Tallulah in. All that said, since Tallulah does mean “town” or “leaping waters” depending on the language, I would consider that as a noun name! Therefore, using Magnolia wouldn’t be a problem.

Persephone “Posy” (it would then connect to Tallulah’s name and Ruby and Wolf’s explicitly nature names!)
Penelope “Poppy” (ditto with Persephone “Posy”, you could also use the nicknames Nellie or Penny)
Perpetua “Poppy”
Josephine “Posy”
Matilda
Genevieve
Adelaide

Personally if you’ve named all your children with state park/waterfalls names, I would want to continue that theme…particularly because it’s just one left.

I love [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]!

if you’re in the area I think you’re from then
other suggestions that fit no. 2 - [name_f]Marion[/name_f], [name_f]Myrtle[/name_f], [name_f]Carolina[/name_f], [name_f]Catherine[/name_f], [name_f]Amelia[/name_f], [name_f]Madison[/name_f], [name_f]Ruth[/name_f], [name_f]Eve[/name_f], Pamona/Pomona, [name_f]Frederica[/name_f], [name_f]Blythe[/name_f], [name_f]Cay[/name_f], [name_f]Laurel[/name_f], [name_m]Tory[/name_m], [name_m]River[/name_m], [name_f]Hope[/name_f], [name_f]Patsy[/name_f],

[name_f]Love[/name_f] your set, their names are so pretty! I’m really loving your options of [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] and [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]! A few suggestions…

I love your kiddos names! Out of the names you have here I really like [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f], [name_f]Florence[/name_f], & [name_f]Juno[/name_f] with
T a l l u l a h, R u b y, & W o l f. I totally get wanting to put a lot of time & energy into picking the right name for your bookend baby! :heart:

[name_f]My[/name_f] heart is set on [name_f]Florence[/name_f]. It is long like [name_f]Tallulah[/name_f] and I feel like it book ends the short ( and stunning wolf & Ruby)

All of the names you like sound great to me!

[name_m]Or[/name_m] even more than those suggestions I love Xanthea that @love.endures suggested! It feels the right combination of established but fresh and unexpected to fit with your other children’s names.

:smiling_face_with_three_hearts: I love rounding off a sibset with a theme break/pizzaz! I’m loving [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] & [name_f]Cosima[/name_f], in particular. It breaks the consonant rule, but what do you think of [name_f]Aurelie[/name_f] or [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f]? I’m also liking [name_f]Paloma[/name_f] for you, along with the Berries above.

I’d like to suggest:
[name_f]Cosmina[/name_f]
[name_f]Soraya[/name_f]
[name_f]Genavie[/name_f]
[name_f]Marceline[/name_f] or [name_f]Marcelina[/name_f]

Going clean, if I were deciding for myself:

Gwyneth
Diana
Noemi
Pandora
Ismerie
Marsaili
Marceline

Others that break one of your rules:

Imogen
Phaedra
Francine/ Frances
Lucette
Amybeth
Daphne
Celeste
Bridget
Constance
Of yours I love Delphine (Delph/Phina), Cordelia & Florence (though I think I prefer Florence in second spot because I don’t love its nickname options).

I really like the suggestions above of Saskia, Noemi & Paloma - visually they look like great matches too whereas some of the others (and I mean of my own too) aren’t as visually cohesive. I also spotted Cosmina - for certain stretches, I prefer it to Cosima. Jessamine, Persephone & Genevieve are good suggestions.

I love [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f], [name_f]Florence[/name_f], [name_f]Juniper[/name_f] and [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] for your 4th baby! [name_f]Nimue[/name_f] is also very interesting and gentle. [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] is one of my favorite names for a girl!
I love the sutle theme related to parks/waterfalls. I think [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] and [name_f]Florence[/name_f] may be perfect for your baby.
Considering all your criteria, I vote for [name_f]Florence[/name_f]. I think it checks everything you’re searching for your little girl’s name. [name_f]Florence[/name_f] is not a word name, but it is easily associated with flowers and the beautiful city. It’s feminine, colorful, elegant, and melodic. It has a nature association like your oldest childrens’ names. It sounds amazing with their names as well.
[name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_f]Aurora[/name_f], [name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f], [name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_f]Nimue[/name_f], [name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_f]Juno[/name_f] and [name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] would sound magnificent!

I really like [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f].
Would calling her or naming her [name_f]Nola[/name_f] make it any better?

What about [name_f]Winnona[/name_f]?
[name_f]Tallulah[/name_f], [name_f]Ruby[/name_f], [name_m]Wolf[/name_m] and [name_f]Winnie[/name_f] sound are adorable/lovely.

[name_f]Juno[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] is my personal fave :blush:

I love [name_f]Acadia[/name_f] for you! [name_f]Cady[/name_f] would be a cute nn.
Based on the waterfall names, i think we might be in the same area, and if that’s the case, [name_f]Acadia[/name_f] “Cade/Cades” could be after Cades C0ve. [name_m]Just[/name_m] a thought!

I also love [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] with your set. I think it has a little more pizazz than [name_f]Florence[/name_f] and ticks the boxes that [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] misses. [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] also means “daughter of the sea” which fits in nicely alongside waterfall names. I also love the nn potential of [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f], “Coco, [name_m]Cordy[/name_m], [name_f]Delia[/name_f], Della”

Some others that I think “fit”:

[name_f]Temperance[/name_f]
[name_f]Dorothy[/name_f] “Dolly”
[name_f]Elowen[/name_f]
[name_f]Marlowe[/name_f]

best of luck!
