From your poll, I like [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Katharine[/name_f]. I like longer mn’s with [name_f]Greta[/name_f]: [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_u]Harmony[/name_u], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Miriam[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Lorelei[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Magdalene[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Leontine[/name_f] etc… If you want to keep the nature theme alive, there is also [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_u]Juniper[/name_u], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] or [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f].

[name_f]Greta[/name_f] is a lovely name! [name_f]My[/name_f] twin sister’s name is [name_f]Gretel[/name_f] and her middle name is [name_f]Margo[/name_f], which I love. The only [name_f]Greta[/name_f] I know (she’s 9) has the middle name [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f].
From your list, I think I like [name_f]Fern[/name_f] the best - but I wasn’t brave enough to vote, as I loved them all! :wink: I agree with [name_u]Mischa[/name_u] in that I quite like long middles with [name_f]Greta[/name_f] too. WDYT about [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Penelope[/name_f]…?
Best of luck! I love, love, [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] your sibset.

Oh, yay! I love the name [name_f]Greta[/name_f] (my 6 year old is [name_f]Greta[/name_f], so it is always fun to see another [name_f]Greta[/name_f]…I hope you use it!). Among your choices, I like [name_f]Katharine[/name_f]. I prefer longer middles with [name_f]Greta[/name_f], too. I also think [name_f]Greta[/name_f] sounds best with a softer middle, as some find [name_f]Greta[/name_f] to be clunky/strong.

[name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Lilian[/name_f]/[name_f]Lillian[/name_f]
[name_f]Greta[/name_f] Evienne
[name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Delilah[/name_f]
I agree with mischa that [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] and [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Lorelei[/name_f]/[name_f]Lorelai[/name_f] look and sound great.

@mischa - I agree, [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Katharine[/name_f], sounds the best. I thought of [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] and [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f], but I feel like the nature theme is too “forced” with those. I prefer if the names have some family significance or special meaning, which applies to all my poll choices. I also agree that longer names flow better with [name_f]Greta[/name_f]. Loving [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Lorelei[/name_f]! Thanks!
@jem - Thanks for the [name_f]Fern[/name_f] love! I do so love the name but it’s hard to make a good combo with it. Thanks for your suggestions!
@norskelove - I agree, a softer middle name with [name_f]Greta[/name_f] gives it balance. [name_f]Greta[/name_f] is beautiful, glad you used it and I hope to too! Thanks!
@loudlysilent - Thanks for the suggestions! I think [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Lilian[/name_f] is very pretty!

Thanks for all the input! :slight_smile:

I think that one syllable names sound best with [name_f]Greta[/name_f]. I voted for [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Fern[/name_f] because I love the flow, and [name_f]Fern[/name_f] is so pretty. When I first read the title of this post my instant thought was [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_u]Leigh[/name_u]. I also like [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_u]Brooke[/name_u], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Jade[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Star[/name_f] and [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Raine[/name_f].

@carysmarie- Thanks for your reply! Thanks for more love for [name_f]Greta[/name_f] [name_f]Fern[/name_f]! I feel like [name_f]Fern[/name_f] is so beautiful yet underused.
