I’m expecting a daughter in the [name_f]Spring[/name_f].
Names on our list that we like right now include:
[name_f]Valley[/name_f]
[name_m]Wilder[/name_m]
Clese
[name_f]Alta[/name_f]
[name_f]Althea[/name_f]
[name_f]Winslet[/name_f]
[name_f]Marceline[/name_f] (We’ve loved for years but it’s an M name and now seems too feminine.) I think we are leaning toward more masculine girl names.
Big brothers are named [name_u]Roscoe[/name_u] and [name_u]Merritt[/name_u].
Our last name is one syllable so two or more syllables for a first name would be ideal. I would like to avoid R and M names if at all possible.
[name_f]Do[/name_f] any of these stand out as perfect?i would love to hear other ideas. Thank you!
Personally, I think [name_f]Althea[/name_f] [name_m]Wilder[/name_m] would be the perfect mix of masculinity and femininity. It also goes well with the names of your sons.
I don’t view [name_f]Marceline[/name_f] as very feminine at all (it just reminds me of the character from Adventure Time now, unfortunately), so if you’ve loved it for a long time I think you should use it. A more masculine nickname could be [name_m]Marc[/name_m], or even [name_m]Arik[/name_m], [name_u]Lee[/name_u] or [name_u]Mars[/name_u].
Stylistically, [name_f]Winslet[/name_f] would probably go best with your sibset as [name_u]Roscoe[/name_u] and [name_u]Merritt[/name_u] are both surnames. [name_f]Winslet[/name_f] [name_f]Althea[/name_f] or [name_f]Winslet[/name_f] [name_f]Marceline[/name_f] arelovely.
You may want to be careful with using a unisex name for a daughter when you have two sons with unisex names (as then there may be gender confusion). In saying that, if that sort of thing doesn’t bother you then I wouldn’t worry
I really love [name_f]Alta[/name_f] [name_m]Wilder[/name_m]! Both names are wonderful. Also, I immediately thought of the name [name_f]Fern[/name_f] when I saw the title of your post. [name_f]Fern[/name_f] [name_m]Wilder[/name_m] or [name_f]Fern[/name_f] [name_f]Althea[/name_f] sound nice!
From your list I like [name_f]Althea[/name_f] and [name_f]Marceline[/name_f], but neither would be my choice to go with [name_u]Roscoe[/name_u] and [name_u]Merritt[/name_u]. [name_f]Winslet[/name_f] best matches with your current children’s names.
My suggestions:
[name_u]Roscoe[/name_u], [name_u]Merritt[/name_u] and [name_u]Avery[/name_u]
[name_u]Roscoe[/name_u], [name_m]Merrit[/name_m] and [name_u]Skyler[/name_u]
[name_u]Roscoe[/name_u], [name_u]Merritt[/name_u] and [name_f]Araceli[/name_f]
[name_u]Roscoe[/name_u], [name_u]Merritt[/name_u] and [name_u]Tegan[/name_u]
[name_u]Roscoe[/name_u], [name_u]Merritt[/name_u] and [name_f]Clover[/name_f]
[name_u]Roscoe[/name_u], [name_m]Merrit[/name_m] and [name_u]Tatum[/name_u]
