[name]Hi[/name] berries, I have a son named [name]Vincent[/name] [name]Harrison[/name], and we’re brainstorming ideas for a future sister. Not ttc yet. One of the things we loved about the name [name]Vincent[/name] was the classic charm it has, and the plethora of nicknames–he goes by [name]Vince[/name], [name]Vinny[/name], and occasionally [name]Vin[/name]. Dh is also Italian and we like that connection with [name]Vincent[/name] as well. We’d like his sister to have the same options–a longer name with several nicknames if possible–spunky boyish nicknames even. DH and I are having difficulty thinking of potential girls names and would like your help! Here are some names we like:
Some names we like:
[name]Dorothy[/name] nn [name]Dot[/name], [name]Dori[/name] (I love this, but dh says NO)
[name]Sylvie[/name] (dh likes too, but I feel it might be too short)
[name]Faye[/name] (see above, but a potential middle name)
[name]Jacqueline[/name] (dh loves, I like…but I’m not a fan of [name]Jackie[/name]. [name]Jack[/name] or [name]Jax[/name] might be cute…any other nn ideas for this?)
[name]Hermione[/name] (working on dh to let me use this as a middle name, as a fn it might be too much)
[name]Savannah[/name] (dh loves, I think it’s too trendy)
[name]Juliet[/name] (dh is lukewarm, doesn’t like nn [name]Jules[/name]/[name]Jewels[/name])
[name]Louisa[/name] (dh dislikes)
[name]Genevieve[/name] (dh dislikes)
[name]Charlotte[/name] (too popular)
[name]Lily[/name] (too popular, probably too short)
[name]Alessia[/name] (worried about misunderstanding this as [name]Alyssa[/name]–also, can I get away with the nns [name]Lexi[/name] or [name]Lacey[/name]?)
A future brother would most likely be [name]Walter[/name] [name]Philip[/name] or [name]Walter[/name] [name]Michael[/name]. Thanks, berries!
