I just gave birth to a baby girl and my husband and I are going with [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] for her first name.
For her middle name, we are trying to draw inspiration from her birth being so close to [name_u]Valentine[/name_u]'s [name_u]Day[/name_u] and go with something meaning love or beloved, etc.
Any ideas?
Thanks for any inspiration!
[name_u]Love[/name_u] the name [name_f]Delphine[/name_f]!
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] Amora “love”
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Carys[/name_f] “to love”
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_m]Hart[/name_m]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Valentina[/name_f]
Good luck! 
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] is lovely! Some ideas for you:
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] Amora
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Esme[/name_f]

[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Aziza[/name_f]

[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_u]Vida[/name_u]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Imogen[/name_f]
Or popular characters from love stories and godesses:
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Viola[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Cleopatra[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Aphrodite[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Freya[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] Aimée (beloved)
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Amabel[/name_f] (lovable)
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Amoret[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Venetia[/name_f] (associated with [name_f]Venus[/name_f], name of the love goddess)
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] Amance (loving)
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Lavinia[/name_f] (or other names that begin with the sound “[name_u]Love[/name_u]”)
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Corisande[/name_f] (resembles Spanish corazón = “heart”)
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Cordula[/name_f] (from Latin cor = “heart” (genitive cordis))
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Minette[/name_f] (resembles English mine, a pet-name of [name_f]Princess[/name_f] [name_f]Henrietta[/name_f] of [name_f]England[/name_f] (1644-1670), daughter of [name_m]Charles[/name_m] I)
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] Lovejoy (English surname)
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] Chrysanta (or [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] Chrysanthe/Chrysanthi; means “golden flower” from Greek - both Chryse (golden) and [name_f]Antheia[/name_f] (flower) were epithets of the love goddess [name_f]Aphrodite[/name_f])
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Cytherea[/name_f] (another epithet of [name_f]Aphrodite[/name_f])
Going off of @mrsbuntain’s idea, another ‘lover’ from medieval legend is [name_f]Isolde[/name_f] (lover of [name_u]Tristan[/name_u]) - variations of the name include Isola, [name_f]Iseult[/name_f], etc.
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Isotta[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Yseult[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Thisbe[/name_f] (lover of [name_m]Pyramus[/name_m])
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_u]Hero[/name_u] (lover of [name_m]Leander[/name_m])
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Heloise[/name_f] (irl lover of [name_m]Pierre[/name_m] [name_m]Abelard[/name_m])
Another idea I had is [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Patience[/name_f], from the famous verses on love in the [name_m]New[/name_m] Testament: “[name_u]Love[/name_u] is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. [name_u]Love[/name_u] does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. [name_u]Love[/name_u] never fails.” (1 Corinthians 13:4-8a)
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Kerensa[/name_f] - [name_f]Kerensa[/name_f] is Cornish for love
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Carys[/name_f] - Welsh for love
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Amoret[/name_f] - it’s probably from Italian [name_m]Amare[/name_m], and in [name_u]Spencer[/name_u]'s Faerie [name_f]Queen[/name_f] she was representation of married love
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Corisande[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Aimee[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Freya[/name_f]
Congrats!
Another idea is using a word/name associated with valentine’s
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Blossom[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Fleur[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Flora[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_m]Hart[/name_m]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Crimson[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] Blush
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Rosa[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Petal[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] is beautiful btw!
Congrats! I too have a daughter named [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] ([name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f]) that was born just over a year ago. Beautiful choice, but I’m obviously biased.
If we have another girl down the line our top first name is [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] which I think would work for your [name_f]Delphine[/name_f]’s MN and ties in with V-[name_u]Day[/name_u] due to the interpretation “beautiful rose”. [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]- love love love.
Thank you all for the wonderful suggestions!
I really, really appreciate all your help.
We went with [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] Amora, she came home today to join her sisters and brother [name_f]Bronwyn[/name_f] [name_u]Elliot[/name_u], [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] ([name_u]Theo[/name_u]) [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] and [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] [name_u]Artemis[/name_u].
Thank you again for your thoughtful help!
