I am trying to find names (both male and female) that go well with [name]Forrest[/name] & [name]Lucy[/name]. [name]Both[/name] of these names have been my favorites for as long as I can remember, so choosing more names is proving to be a rather difficult task. [name]Forrest[/name] is my father’s name. [name]Lucy[/name] has no family significance, it is just a name that I have always loved.
My naming style is vintage and traditional but I don’t want names that are overly popular, like [name]Emily[/name] and [name]Aaden[/name]. I have composed a list of my top 10 names for both sexes (at the moment) and I would love to hear your opinion on each name. I would also appreciate it if you could tell me your top 3 and bottom 3 names!
Girls –
[name]Agnes[/name] or [name]Agatha[/name] ([name]Aggie[/name])
[name]Eloise[/name]
[name]Hazel[/name]
[name]Hattie[/name] (is there a name, other than [name]Harriet[/name] that [name]Hattie[/name] can be a nn for?)
[name]Georgia[/name]
[name]Clara[/name]
[name]Alice[/name]
[name]Emmeline[/name]
[name]Arabella[/name] ([name]Ari[/name] or [name]Bella[/name])
[name]Simone[/name]
Boys –
[name]Isaac[/name]
[name]Gideon[/name]
[name]Silas[/name]
[name]Lincoln[/name]
[name]Eli[/name] (maybe [name]Elias[/name] as a full name?)
[name]Joseph[/name] (I hate the nn [name]Joe/name though!)
[name]Asher[/name]
[name]Samuel[/name] or [name]Samson[/name] ([name]Sam[/name])
[name]Eamon[/name] (Ay-mon)
[name]Abram[/name]
If you have any other suggestions, especially for boys, I’d love to hear them!
Girls –
[name]Agnes[/name] or [name]Agatha[/name] ([name]Aggie[/name]) ~ Of the two, I prefer [name]Agatha[/name]. Honestly, I don’t think either are wearable on a little girl, but [name]Aggie[/name] is a nice nickname.
[name]Eloise[/name] ~ [name]Lovely[/name]! Such a sweet, timeless name.
[name]Hazel[/name] ~ Not my favorite, but it’s okay.
[name]Hattie[/name] ~ I love this nickname! I can’t think of any other names besides [name]Harriet[/name]… maybe [name]Henrietta[/name]? Seems a bit of a stretch though.
[name]Georgia[/name] ~ [name]Lovely[/name]!
[name]Clara[/name] ~ Gorgeous!
[name]Alice[/name] ~ [name]Love[/name] it!
[name]Emmeline[/name] ~ Pretty!
[name]Arabella[/name] ~ Nice. I prefer the nickname [name]Bella[/name] to [name]Ari[/name].
[name]Simone[/name] ~ Not my favorite. Doesn’t seem to go with your other names, in my opinion.
My favorite names that I think go best with [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Forrest[/name] are [name]Eloise[/name], [name]Clara[/name], and [name]Georgia[/name].
My least favorite names are [name]Simone[/name], [name]Agnes[/name], and [name]Hazel[/name].
Boys –
[name]Isaac[/name] ~ Nice.
[name]Gideon[/name] ~ Seems a bit unwearable… but okay.
[name]Silas[/name] ~ Not my style, but okay.
[name]Lincoln[/name] ~ Handsome!
[name]Eli[/name] ~ Nice. I think it’s fine on its own. I prefer [name]Elijah[/name] to [name]Elias[/name] though.
[name]Joseph[/name] ~ Handsome, even without [name]Joe[/name] / [name]Joey[/name].
[name]Asher[/name] ~ Handsome! [name]Love[/name] it! <3
Samuel or Samson (Sam) ~ I like both, but I’d probably prefer Samson because it’s a little less common but still handsome and traditional.
Eamon (Ay-mon) ~ Not my favorite… I think people might mispronounce / misspell it.
Abram ~ Nice.
My favorite names that I think go well with Lucy and Forrest are Eli, Asher, and Isaac.
My least favorites are Gideon, Eamon, and Silas.
Thank you so much for all of your help! I really appreciate it. I am taking all of your suggestions into consideration and will update my list soon
I am loving the name [name]Henry[/name] with [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Forrest[/name], but I have a cousin named [name]Henry[/name] who goes exclusively by [name]Harry[/name]. I don’t feel like I can do that.
Once again, thank you! You have all been a tremendous help.
