I’m almost to my due date! I can’t believe how fast this pregnancy has gone.
This will be our first little girl and likely last child. We have one boy, [name_u]Jameson[/name_u] [name_u]Michael[/name_u] “[name_u]Jem[/name_u]”.
We’ve had [name_f]Cora[/name_f] picked out since our dating days, so that’s ready to go. But while we had our sons full name picked out months in advance, we just can’t settle on a middle name this time. So our plan as of now is to just pick one of or choices once we meet her. Our options so far are [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Adeline[/name_f], [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f], and [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f]. I love [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] for its sweet vintage charm, but it’s DH’s least favorite. I love [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] because there’s the option to call her [name_u]Scout[/name_u], sticking to the TKAM thing going on, but i also know quite a few little [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]'s, and I’m not fond of its more harsh sound. I love [name_f]Lily[/name_f] becuase nature names are a bit of a tradition in the family, and also our wedding flower. I don’t like it because it isn’t as sweet and girly as I’d hope. I don’t like [name_f]Lillian[/name_f] either.
I like more word names like [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_u]Blue[/name_u], [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f], etc. But it doesn’t match super well with big brothers name, and DH would be hard to convince.
Our son was named after my dad who passed away. There aren’t any family names we can use for baby girl, but something meaningful would be nice. We had two miscarriages before her, so maybe something with a special meaning? We also are in love with the ocean, so something beach would be neat to. Or just something sweet and girly with no meaning is totally great too.
I guess, to get to the point, I’m just curious… What middle name would you give to [name_f]Cora[/name_f]? What makes you swoon?
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] is stunning. I wouldn’t pair it with [name_u]Blue[/name_u].
I like [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f], [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Adeline[/name_f]. [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] works too.
As another idea, I love [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Celeste[/name_f].
The combo [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] makes me swoon I love the name [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] on its own and with [name_f]Cora[/name_f] it is truly a showstopper! One of my personal favorite combos right now is [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] [name_f]Cora[/name_f], but it works either way. From your list, I personally prefer [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Adeline[/name_f], but [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] also beautiful. No matter what, you can’t go wrong! [name_f]Cora[/name_f] is a beautiful name.
Nature middles:
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f] (nature name and [name_f]Iris[/name_f] and could used in memory of your miscarriages since it means rainbow and a baby born after a miscarriage is called a rainbow baby)
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Leilani[/name_f] (heavenly flower)
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Amaryllis[/name_f]
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] and [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] are lovely. [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] seems a bit off compared to the other two, and having a [name_u]Jem[/name_u] and a [name_u]Scout[/name_u] seems a bit too much, doesn’t it?
I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] the suggestion of [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f], also [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] and [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f].
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] seems a little abrupt to me, like maybe they might go together but something seems just ever so off… [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] is nice but I agree with your reservations. [name_f]Cora[/name_f] [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] is gorgeous, it’s my favorite of the combinations you suggested. [name_m]How[/name_m] about:
