Wow-thank you guys for your suggestions. I think it’s hard for me to visualize other names with [name]Imogen[/name] because it’s so unlike (at least to me) other girl names. It’s classy, and distinctly feminine, but not flowery, that is [name]Imogen[/name] is no [name]Arabella[/name]. Also, it’s so uncommon in the U.S, and feel like it would stick out next to something like [name]Violet[/name], which is a hispter & starbaby name, and closing in on the top 100.
I’m also a big type A overanalyzer as well
@ [name]Mischa[/name], I love the suggestion of [name]Milo[/name], and actually like it better than [name]Leo[/name] I think. I also really like [name]Briony[/name] in theory, but had a horrible ex-boyfriend named [name]Bryan[/name], and I can’t really get over that.
@ [name]Lemon[/name], I really like [name]Olive[/name], and never thought of it with [name]Imogen[/name]! It’s great, especially since DH is not that keen on [name]Violet[/name], even though it’s the color of our alma mater! boo! [name]Phoebe[/name] is great, but DH had a childhood dog named [name]Phoebe[/name], and he also hates [name]Penelope[/name] (he thinks it sounds ugly). I like it, but don’t [name]LOVE[/name] enough to fight him. [name]Alice[/name] is also great, and will most likely be a middle. (My best friend is a [name]Mary[/name]-[name]Alice[/name]). For boys, I like [name]Everett[/name], but like [name]Beckett[/name] more and wouldn’t use both. Too much “tt” :). [name]Felix[/name] was just used by close friends so it’s out, and [name]Henry[/name] is the middle I envision for [name]Rufus[/name].
@ sili annie, Congrats on your twins! I do love [name]Eleanor[/name], but LOATHE [name]Ellie[/name], and can’t use [name]Nora[/name] because it’s my stepmom’s name and my mother would be livid. I do like [name]Jasper[/name], but DH likes [name]Jude[/name] more.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions, [name]Imogen[/name] feels COMPLETELY usable to me now, I just needed a tiny bit convincing
