Disclaimer: Not TTC or Expecting, but heavily contemplating and planning with my list.
I love the name [name_u]Diamond[/name_u]. It has such wonderful deep, personal meaning for me, and I’m quite enamoured with the idea of having a little [name_u]Diamond[/name_u] one day. It’s one of those names where even despite the negative connotations many seem to have with [name_u]Diamond[/name_u], I don’t really mind - I could happily defend [name_u]Diamond[/name_u] and love using it. I even love the alliteration with S/O’s surname.
Symbolism/Meaning
Although science has since proven otherwise, Diamonds were believed to be the strongest material on earth for a long time, and I believe are still at least one of the strongest, but as well as their strength, they’re beautiful and elegant. They are formed when carbon is placed under intense heat and pressure, and the result is this beautiful, bright, sparkling gem. I like the idea that this could remind my daughter that even under the worst pressures, and the hardest, most intense moments in life, something beautiful will come out of it. I’ve personally gone through a lot of struggles and obstacles in my life, and all of them have led me to S/O, and potentially to my future daughter, should I have one. She would be my diamond - the beauty that is formed after the intense heats and pressures in life.
I’m struggling to find a middle name that sparkles and shines as much as my gorgeous [name_u]Diamond[/name_u]. I’d like something meaningful, and so far I’ve contemplated:
[name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] ([name_f]Sophia[/name_f] meaning wisdom)
[name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Athena[/name_f] ([name_f]Athena[/name_f] after the [name_f]Goddess[/name_f], too out there?)
[name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Mia[/name_f] (“my diamond”)
[name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Amara[/name_f] ([name_f]Amara[/name_f] meaning beloved)
[name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] ([name_f]Felicity[/name_f] meaning happiness)
[name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] ([name_f]Zoe[/name_f] meaning life)
Which of these is your favourite for me? [name_f]Do[/name_f] you have any other suggestions?
I like all of them to be honest! They are all really nice! [name_f]My[/name_f] favourites are [name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] and [name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Athena[/name_f]!
Mia & [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] both work really well with [name_u]Diamond[/name_u]. I like the meaning of [name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Mia[/name_f] more – super sweet! – but I really like the flow of [name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f].
I love [name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f], [name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Mia[/name_f], and [name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Amara[/name_f]!
I am probably in minority as well, I do love [name_u]Diamond[/name_u] so much! I love basically all the gem names.
One of my favourites from you list is [name_u]Diamond[/name_u] [name_f]Mia[/name_f]. I like it for the meaning alone. You could call her [name_f]Mia[/name_f] [name_u]Diamond[/name_u] as a pet name .
