Little Women: what would you choose? 👒

[snowmaiden]

I’ve got two fun questions, as a Little-Women-enthusiast of a girl!

1
What would you name a sister AND a brother to the March sisters of Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women?

my ideas!

Summary

sister: Abigail March
brother: Henry March

2
What middle names would you give the March girls? (Feel free to give Amy a new middle name, too, but her middle name—as she says in the novel—is Curtis!)

my ideas!

Summary

Margaret May March
Josephine Abigail March
Elizabeth Anne March
Amy Curtis March (I like it as it is!)

For reference… here are the girls’ names!
Margaret (Meg), Josephine (Jo), Elizabeth (Beth), & Amy

Have fun, all!

+Lucy

[name_f]Meg[/name_f], [name_u]Jo[/name_u], [name_f]Beth[/name_f], [name_f]Amy[/name_f], [name_u]Sam[/name_u], and [name_f]Lucy[/name_f]

[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Diana[/name_f] [name_u]March[/name_u] ‘Jo’
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f] [name_u]March[/name_u] ‘Beth’

Great question!

I’d add [name_f]Laura[/name_f] and [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] to the set.

For middle names:
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_u]Quincy[/name_u] [name_u]March[/name_u]
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_u]Alcott[/name_u] [name_u]March[/name_u]
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f] [name_u]March[/name_u]
[name_f]Amy[/name_f] [name_u]Curtis[/name_u] [name_u]March[/name_u]

[name_f]Louisa[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f] [name_u]Alcott[/name_u] and her sisters all had family surnames as middle names (May was her mother’s maiden name!), so I kept the theme.

[snowmaiden]

Margaret Hannah is sooo sweet! Especially with Hannah the dear March housekeeper… just love it!

[snowmaiden]

Yes! I love that you kept the theme! Beautiful!!

[hannahwren]

samuel henry march + clara dorothy march

elizabeth ida “beth”
josephine mabel “jo”

[krijesnica]

I think I’d name a fifth sister [name_f]Frances[/name_f], and I love your idea of [name_u]Henry[/name_u] as a brother. I’d do either that or [name_m]Simon[/name_m], maybe? [name_u]Or[/name_u] maybe [name_u]William[/name_u].

As for the sisters’s middles:

[name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Helen[/name_f]
