Little sister name that works with big sister Rylee?

[Tcmont]

We are struggling with sister names for our little girl due in [name_u]June[/name_u]. Big sis is [name_u]Rylee[/name_u] (middle name [name_u]Marie[/name_u] …I know many here don’t like the basic-ness of this as a middle name, but it’s a family name). What does everyone think of these options? Any other suggestions?

[name_f]Lily[/name_f] (husbands favourite, but is it too close to Rylee?)
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
[name_u]Harper[/name_u]
[name_u]Piper[/name_u]
[name_f]Brynn[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_u]Charlie[/name_u]
[name_f]Kaia[/name_f]
[name_f]Celine[/name_f] (Cece)
[name_f]Lilah[/name_f]
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Ava[/name_f]
[name_f]Abigail[/name_f]
[name_f]Nola[/name_f]

Potential middle names (also family names):

[name_u]Jean[/name_u]
[name_f]Sadie[/name_f]
[name_f]Christine[/name_f]
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] / [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]

[LibelluleClaire]

[name_f]Lilah[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u]!

I do love [name_f]Lily[/name_f] & [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u] would also be adorable. But [name_f]Lilah[/name_f] is similar but avoids the matching ‘lee’ ending with [name_u]Rylee[/name_u]

[Victory55]

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Nola[/name_f]! [name_f]Nola[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u]!
Maybe [name_f]Lilia[/name_f] could be an option,?
I like [name_u]June[/name_u] for the middle with the birth month.

I like the idea of [name_u]Harper[/name_u] [name_f]Sadie[/name_f] or [name_f]Brynn[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] with [name_u]Rylee[/name_u] [name_u]Marie[/name_u]

[EloiseT]

[name_u]Rylee[/name_u] comes across to me as a fun, fresh and modern (and unisex) name so I would go for something similar. From your list, I like [name_u]Piper[/name_u] [name_u]Jean[/name_u] best - and it also means you get PJ as a nickname option in addition to Pip/Pippi etc. (I know a PJ whose family called her Peej that then led to [name_f]Peach[/name_f] and now she’s Peach!)

Otherwise [name_u]Harper[/name_u] or [name_f]Kaia[/name_f] - maybe [name_u]Harper[/name_u] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] or [name_u]Harper[/name_u] Sadie; [name_f]Kaia[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u] or [name_f]Kaia[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f] (“Kiki”). [name_f]Nola[/name_f] could work too, [name_f]Nola[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f] is pretty. I think [name_f]Abigail[/name_f] goes too if you want a more traditional name - [name_f]Abigail[/name_f] [name_f]Sadie[/name_f]?

Not as keen on [name_f]Lily[/name_f] as (to me) sounds a bit cutesy with [name_u]Rylee[/name_u] and also different spelling of the same sound (eg why not Lilee -I get why, but just as an eg). I also think it might hem you in a little if you’re having any additional children with the repeat ending - same for [name_u]Charlie[/name_u]. I do like the name though. Only name I’m not a fan of on you list is [name_f]Brynn[/name_f] - it goes with [name_u]Rylee[/name_u], but it’s quite harsh to my ear - and I myself would only use [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] as a nickname.

Other names you might like with [name_u]Rylee[/name_u]: [name_u]Cleo[/name_u], [name_u]Sloane[/name_u], [name_f]Maisie[/name_f], [name_u]Harlow[/name_u], [name_f]Gemma[/name_f], [name_u]Auden[/name_u], [name_u]Fern[/name_u], [name_u]Delaney[/name_u], [name_f]Keira[/name_f], [name_u]Sutton[/name_u], [name_f]Tess[/name_f], [name_u]June[/name_u], [name_f]Meadow[/name_f], [name_f]Cora[/name_f], [name_u]Morgan[/name_u], [name_u]Seren[/name_u], [name_u]Eden[/name_u], [name_f]Brea[/name_f], [name_u]Darcy[/name_u], [name_f]Avalon[/name_f], [name_f]Nora[/name_f], [name_u]Hazel[/name_u], [name_u]Arden[/name_u], [name_u]Shiloh[/name_u], [name_u]Adair[/name_u], and [name_f]Zara[/name_f].

[name_u]Rylee[/name_u] and [name_u]Harper[/name_u] would be so sweet together! Both are bubbly, slightly unisex, and fun. I also really like [name_f]Kaia[/name_f] and [name_f]Abigail[/name_f] with [name_u]Rylee[/name_u]! [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] and [name_f]Lily[/name_f] would be lovely, but I do think they’re too similar to [name_u]Rylee[/name_u], unfortunately.

[Greyblue]

You have a nice list of options!

I like:

[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] → sharp and sweet

[name_u]Piper[/name_u] → bright and musical

[name_f]Brynn[/name_f] → rugged but sparkly

[name_f]Kaia[/name_f] → sweet with sass

[name_f]Nola[/name_f] → warm and bright

With these, my favourite combos would be:

[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_u]Piper[/name_u] [name_u]Jean[/name_u]
[name_f]Brynn[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_f]Kaia[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u]
[name_f]Nola[/name_f] [name_f]Sadie[/name_f]

A few other suggestions:

[name_u]Rylee[/name_u] Mar.ie and…

[name_f]Summer[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_f]Lola[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u]
[name_u]Brooke[/name_u] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_u]Eden[/name_u] [name_f]Sadie[/name_f]
[name_f]Luna[/name_f] [name_f]Sadie[/name_f]
[name_u]Cassidy[/name_u] [name_u]Jean[/name_u]
[name_f]Cassie[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_u]Parker[/name_u] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]

[cms1512]

Of these, I’d go: [name_u]Piper[/name_u] [name_u]Jean[/name_u], [name_u]Harper[/name_u] [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_f]Lilah[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f], or [name_f]Brynn[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f].

Since your husband likes [name_f]Lily[/name_f], maybe do [name_f]Lilianna[/name_f] Christine/other middle name?

A few other first name suggestions I think pair well with [name_u]Rylee[/name_u] with your middles as examples:

[name_f]Gianna[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]
[name_u]Hazel[/name_u] [name_u]Jean[/name_u]
[name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]
[name_u]Ashley[/name_u] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_u]Alexis[/name_u] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]
[name_f]Mollie[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_u]Allison[/name_u] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_f]Heather[/name_f] [name_f]Sadie[/name_f]
[name_f]Julia[/name_f] [name_f]Sadie[/name_f]

Hopefully these help

[name_u]Rylee[/name_u] [name_u]Marie[/name_u] and [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_u]Rylee[/name_u] [name_u]Marie[/name_u] and [name_f]Ava[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u]

[somemelodioussonnet]

I kind of like [name_f]Kaia[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u] as an option. It strikes the same chord for me as [name_u]Rylee[/name_u] [name_u]Marie[/name_u]. The image of a tan, blonde surfer girl in a black wetsuit keeps popping into my head. (I apologize if this is nowhere close to the vibe you expected.)

There is nothing wrong with [name_u]Marie[/name_u] as a middle name, I like it.

[name_f]My[/name_f] thoughts on the name list:
[name_f]Lily[/name_f]: It is a little similar-sounding to [name_u]Rylee[/name_u], but still a good name
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]: I think it matches the style of [name_u]Rylee[/name_u] well, while still being distinct.
[name_u]Harper[/name_u], [name_u]Piper[/name_u], and [name_f]Brynn[/name_f]: same opinion as [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f]: Might be a little too similar-sounding as they both have “i” and “l” sounds in the middle, I could imagine they both come running if they hear you call one of the names from another room.
[name_u]Charlie[/name_u]: it has the same ending sound problem as [name_f]Lily[/name_f]
[name_f]Kaia[/name_f]: [name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Kaia[/name_f]! [name_f]Beautiful[/name_f] underused name!
[name_f]Celine[/name_f]: I like this name. Very different style from [name_u]Rylee[/name_u], but if you love it that doesn’t have to be an issue.
[name_f]Lilah[/name_f]: same problem as [name_f]Violet[/name_f], I think
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f]: same opinion as [name_f]Celine[/name_f]
[name_f]Ava[/name_f]: I like this name, and think it’d be a good match for [name_u]Rylee[/name_u].
[name_f]Abigail[/name_f]: same as [name_f]Ava[/name_f]
[name_f]Nola[/name_f]: same as [name_f]Ava[/name_f]

Some combos I really like for your names:
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]
[name_u]Harper[/name_u] [name_f]Sadie[/name_f]
[name_u]Piper[/name_u] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Brynn[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_f]Kaia[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]

Congratulations on baby girl #2

Ryle3 Mari3 feels sweet and southern

From your list I think [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f], [name_u]Harper[/name_u], [name_u]Piper[/name_u] and [name_f]Lilah[/name_f] (prefer Lila) work wonders.

For middle names I would embrace the simplicity of [name_u]Marie[/name_u] by going with [name_u]Jean[/name_u]. [name_u]Jean[/name_u] is a lovely name with a laid back sound that works with all the names above brilliantly.

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps

[ellerbea]

I love [name_u]Harper[/name_u] and [name_u]Piper[/name_u] with [name_u]Rylee[/name_u] and any of your chosen middle names! They all have pep to them but could also suit anyone.

I think I would probably choose [name_u]Harper[/name_u] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] and [name_u]Piper[/name_u] [name_u]Jean[/name_u]

[TiffanyS]

[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]

You both like the long I sound (Rylee, [name_f]Kaia[/name_f], [name_f]Lilah[/name_f], [name_u]Piper[/name_u], Violet), so [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] uses that sound. But it’s the middle name, so it doesn’t sound confusing at home to have two names with the dominant long I sound in everyday use.

[name_u]Rylee[/name_u] and [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f].

[AmyVermeersch]

I don’t think [name_f]Lily[/name_f] is too close to [name_u]Rylee[/name_u]! They do both have the EE ending. But I think the beginnings and the spellings are different enough that it still works.

[name_f]My[/name_f] favorites are [name_f]Brynn[/name_f], [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Lilah[/name_f], and [name_f]Amelia[/name_f].

[name_f]Lilah[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u]
[name_f]Brynn[/name_f] [name_f]Sadie[/name_f]
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Christine[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]

[Chococat]

You have a lot of good options that will work well as a sister to [name_u]Rylee[/name_u].

I think [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f], [name_u]Harper[/name_u], [name_f]Brynn[/name_f], and [name_f]Ava[/name_f] are the ones that have a similar feel to [name_u]Rylee[/name_u] for me, and also have no issues with rhyming sounds.

Some other ideas: [name_u]Scout[/name_u], [name_u]Harlow[/name_u], [name_u]Peyton[/name_u], [name_u]Quinn[/name_u], [name_u]Tatum[/name_u], [name_u]Ember[/name_u], [name_f]Georgia[/name_f], [name_u]Indigo[/name_u], [name_f]Maren[/name_f]

[Missing_Linc]

Honestly, [name_u]Rylee[/name_u] and [name_f]Lilly[/name_f] roll of the tongue beautifully as a sibset. With [name_u]Rylee[/name_u] [name_u]Marie[/name_u] i do think [name_f]Lilly[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u] sounds best. I would really consider this as your husband loves it.

Of the names offered, my personal favorite is either [name_f]Lilly[/name_f], [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] or [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] and i really feel [name_u]Jean[/name_u] flows best with all three of those names.

[Estrela]

[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f], [name_u]Harper[/name_u] and [name_f]Ava[/name_f] are my favorites for Rylee’s sister. I also like [name_u]Piper[/name_u], [name_f]Brynn[/name_f] and [name_f]Abigail[/name_f]. They all feel modern, energetic, cool and joyous.
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f], [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and [name_f]Celine[/name_f] are gorgeous names, but they have a different style and vibe when compared to [name_u]Rylee[/name_u], in my opinion.
I would avoid [name_f]Lily[/name_f] and [name_f]Lilah[/name_f] because they share similar sounds with [name_u]Rylee[/name_u]. But they’re not unusable. It is just my personal preference.

Your middle names list is beautiful. [name_f]My[/name_f] favorites are Elizabeth/Eliza and [name_u]Jean[/name_u].
