Thoughts on this as a set? Does the prominent ‘g’ in [name]Gregor[/name] and [name]Saige[/name] make the set feel unbalanced? xx
I think it is fine. The Gs make different sounds, so they don’t seem too similar to me at all.
I like it but I would spell it [name]Sage[/name]
Same here.
I think they all go together fine. G’s make different sounds so it’s not a big deal. However, I would spell [name]Saige[/name] as [name]Sage[/name] because your spelling looks overly complicated.
Same for [name]Sage[/name], I like it simpler. Great names, I really like [name]Gregor[/name]. Is [name]Sage[/name] a boy or a girl?
Thanks. [name]Saige[/name] would be a girl.
Alternatively, we like [name]Willa[/name] because we like the fact that [name]Lorcan[/name], [name]Gregor[/name] and [name]Willa[/name] would be variants of [name]Laurence[/name], [name]Gregory[/name] and [name]William[/name], but we feel [name]Willa[/name] may not be ‘out there’ enough compared to the boys’ names and we worry about [name]Gregor[/name] and [name]Willa[/name] sounding like they have the same “uh” ending (when said in our accent!)

Thanks [name]Mischa[/name]! We do love [name]Willa[/name] but would the “uh” sound at the end of [name]Gregor[/name] and [name]Willa[/name] when said aloud make [name]Lorcan[/name] sound out of sync? x
For me, the sound isn’t very similar between [name]Willa[/name] and [name]Gregor[/name]. [name]Do[/name] you actually say “greg-uh” in your accent? I definitely say it like “greg-er” (just [name]Gregory[/name] with the “y” chopped off. :). I love the way the three names look together: [name]Lorcan[/name], [name]Gregor[/name] and [name]Willa[/name]! You’ve been trying to find the perfect name for your girl that you may be overthinking. I think they’re a wonderful sibset.
Does anyone else think there is too much ‘g’ going on betwwen [name]Gregor[/name] and [name]Saige[/name]?
[name]Love[/name] these names! I think they sound great together! [name]Willa[/name] is also lovely, but if you are concerned about the endings being similar, go with [name]Sage[/name]/[name]Saige[/name]. Definitely no problem with the G’s in Gregor and Saige. They are different G sounds entirely so no issue there!
I think it’s fine, but would spell it [name]Sage[/name] not [name]Saige[/name]. That looks stupid.
I fell in love with [name]Sage[/name] when I read about [name]Kyra[/name] [name]Phillips[/name]’ twins named [name]Kellan[/name] and [name]Sage[/name]. [name]Kellan[/name] instantly reminded me of [name]Lorcan[/name] in terms of its vibe, and I thought how great [name]Sage[/name] sounded with it: rustic, sweet and strong, sturdy, historical, unusual. Only thing is I already have a [name]Gregor[/name] so all in all that’s a lot of ‘g’. I know the sound is different but don’t the three names scan oddly together, I don’t know, just like there are prominent g’s in [name]Gregor[/name] and [name]Saige[/name] and then, randomly, [name]Lorcan[/name] - no ‘g’!?! Does it stand out on paper? I think that’s what’s worrying me, I need convincing that the names LOOK balanced, rather than SOUND good together - does taht make sense? Is there enough tying the whole set together? xx
I like the three, particularly [name]Lorcan[/name] and [name]Saige[/name].
I also debate the use of [name]Saige[/name] vs [name]Sage[/name]. I like the traditional [name]Sage[/name], and think it has the benefit that this is how people would spell it naturally, so there wouldn’t be too much confusion on that front. But I also love the way [name]Saige[/name] looks, particularly as I also love [name]Paige[/name] and so spelling it [name]Saige[/name] would be a nice nod to [name]Paige[/name] while still using a much less popular anme than [name]Paige[/name], if that makes sense. Is there a reason for you choosing [name]Saige[/name] over [name]Sage[/name]?
[name]Hi[/name] Bluejuniper, that’s so weird, the exact reason I would be spelling it [name]Saige[/name] would be to honor a [name]Paige[/name]!! Really thrilled that you could see that possibility. As a sidenote, I happen to visually like [name]Saige[/name] better than [name]Sage[/name], it looks more feminine to me, but that may be because of the [name]Paige[/name] link in my mind.
My main concern is that [name]Lorcan[/name] ‘looks’ left out compared to the other two G heavy names?
