My Duggar sized family

General Name Discussion
1

I decided to challege myself (aka procastinate and put off what I should be doing) to come up with 19 name combos that I would actually use. Let me know what you think, if there are any that really stand out to you, either good or bad. [name]Feel[/name] free to try and name 19 kids of your own.

[name]Andreas[/name] [name]Michael[/name]
[name]Julian[/name] [name]Edgar[/name]
[name]Silas[/name] [name]Peter[/name]
[name]Felix[/name] [name]John[/name]
[name]Sebastian[/name] [name]James[/name]
[name]Oliver[/name] [name]Jonas[/name]
[name]Theo[/name] [name]Alexander[/name]
[name]Finnian[/name] [name]Gabriel[/name]
[name]Soren[/name] [name]Victor[/name]
[name]Zander[/name] [name]William[/name]

[name]Louisa[/name] [name]Frances[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name] [name]Isabel[/name]
[name]Cordelia[/name] [name]Ivy[/name]

Oh wow, you chose some really great names. And obviously a lot better since they don’t all start with J. Not trying to sound rude, but does anyone else feel like the Duggars are trying to start their own country or something? Lol

As for my Duggar sized family…
[name]Claire[/name] [name]Georgiana[/name] [name]Marie[/name]
[name]Chloe[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name]
[name]Audra[/name] [name]Caroline[/name] [name]Renee[/name]
[name]Hadley[/name] [name]Cassandra[/name] “Haddie”
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Alice[/name] [name]June[/name] “[name]Penn[/name]”
[name]Emmeline[/name] [name]Violet[/name] “[name]Emma[/name]”
[name]Sophie[/name] [name]Quinn[/name] [name]Isabella[/name]
[name]Remy[/name] [name]Gillian[/name] [name]Lane[/name]

[name]Darwin[/name] [name]Christopher[/name]
[name]Morgan[/name] [name]Oliver[/name]
[name]Jack[/name] [name]Alistair[/name]
[name]Henry[/name] [name]William[/name]
[name]Harris[/name] [name]David[/name]
[name]Reilly[/name] [name]Mitchell[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Timothy[/name] “[name]Dex[/name]”
[name]Jett[/name] [name]Alexander[/name]
[name]Archer[/name] [name]Gregory[/name] “[name]Arch[/name]”
[name]Finley[/name] [name]Thomas[/name] “[name]Finn[/name]”
[name]Macaulay[/name] [name]Robert[/name] “[name]Mac[/name]”

That was really hard to do. Lol

I especially like :
[name]Felix[/name]
[name]Oliver[/name]
[name]Finnian[/name] [name]Gabriel[/name]
[name]Soren[/name] [name]Victor[/name]
[name]Evelyn[/name] [name]Diane[/name]
[name]Lila[/name] [name]Catherine[/name]
[name]Esme[/name] [name]Juliet[/name]
[name]Alice[/name] [name]Margo[/name]
[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Jane[/name]

Plus the middles :
[name]Edgar[/name] (the [name]Ed[/name]- name that I always forget)
[name]James[/name]
[name]Peter[/name]
[name]Alexander[/name].

All in all, I think that you did very well!

I shall have a think about what I would name 19 children! So far we have three :
[name]Ambrosia[/name] [name]Frances[/name] [name]Sofia[/name] nn [name]Rosie[/name]
[name]Jasper[/name] [name]Theodore[/name] [name]Edmond[/name]
[name]Raphael[/name] [name]Cyrus[/name] [name]Peregrine[/name] nn Raffie

And twins on the way :
[name]Dorothea[/name] [name]Cecily[/name] [name]Pearl[/name] nn [name]Dottie[/name]
[name]Marigold[/name] [name]Imelda[/name] [name]Blythe[/name] nn [name]Maggie[/name]

If the twins were boys, they would have probably been :
[name]Benjamin[/name] [name]Conall[/name] [name]Ernest[/name] nn [name]Benji[/name]
[name]Frederick[/name] [name]Lachlan[/name] [name]Walter[/name] nn [name]Fritz[/name]

I also like :
[name]Arthur[/name] [name]Henry[/name] _____. But that’s all I can do at the moment!

Wow this is going to be difficult, but I need the distraction after the day I’ve had.

10 girls; 9 boys

[name]Laurel[/name] [name]Elisabeth[/name]
[name]Arden[/name] [name]Lynn[/name]
[name]Alice[/name] [name]Olivia[/name]
[name]Carys[/name] [name]Siobhan[/name]

[name]Lena[/name] [name]Caroline[/name]
[name]Sonora[/name] [name]Kate[/name]
[name]Elodie[/name] [name]Rae[/name]
[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Eleanor[/name]

[name]Nicholas[/name] [name]Keenan[/name]
[name]Clark[/name] [name]Liam[/name]

[name]Hamish[/name] Eckhart
[name]Alistair[/name] [name]Durant[/name] and [name]Roxanne[/name] [name]Symphony[/name]
[name]Esme[/name] [name]Sailor[/name]
Miette [name]Saskia[/name]
[name]Lois[/name] [name]Anneliese[/name]
[name]Woodrow[/name] [name]Sinclair[/name]
[name]Magnus[/name] [name]Roland[/name]

[name]Leopold[/name] [name]Archer[/name] and [name]Redford[/name] [name]Monroe[/name]
[name]Hal[/name] [name]Bonaventure[/name]
Townsend [name]Casimir[/name]
[name]Viggo[/name] Isambard
[name]Lowell[/name] [name]Bradshaw[/name]

[name]Svetlana[/name] [name]Marjorie[/name]
[name]Lavender[/name] [name]Odessa[/name]
[name]Phaedra[/name] [name]Yvonne[/name]

Once I get to this many, my order of preference is unclear, and it’s hard to decide which to reduce to middles. Some choices were hard: I’m not sure if [name]Esme[/name] and [name]Estelle[/name] are too close to be sisters, but I certainly don’t need anything that close when I have other choices. [name]How[/name] did I manage to miss [name]Honor[/name]? Some other place names I like, but I had too many “conventional” names to use. Some were easy: I didn’t want both [name]Alistair[/name] and [name]Sinclair[/name] as firsts.

I tried to give a spread across the linguistic origins I like.
