[name_m]Hi[/name_m] first baby and I am having a hard time choosing a name. I live in the US.
I Like the names [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] or [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] but I am having a hard time because my husband would like to honor his mother with a middle name [name_f]Emily[/name_f] and I’d like to honor my grandmother with the middle name Cheiko so I have to have both those names in between but neither sounds good with [name_f]Emily[/name_f] . I am considering adding rose which is my middle name before [name_f]Emily[/name_f] to break up the y endings but then the name becomes extremely long. any other first name suggestions. We like [name_f]English[/name_f] old lady names. I like flower names. Our last name is two syllables starts with a C . Thanks!
*also poppy could be a nickname if you can think of something other than [name_f]Penelope[/name_f], [name_f]Paloma[/name_f], or [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] since those have been vetoed
I think [name_u]Robin[/name_u] is quite similar to [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], something like [name_u]Robin[/name_u] [name_f]Emily[/name_f] Cheiko would be a nice nature name I also like the suggestions of [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] Cheiko and [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f], could also have nn [name_u]Perry[/name_u]. Maybe [name_f]Apolline[/name_f] could be shortened to Poppy/Polly. [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] is another nice choice.
[name_u]Honor[/name_u] names trump flow, so I would probably just do [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] [name_f]Emily[/name_f] Cheiko or [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] [name_f]Emily[/name_f] Cheiko. I think they both work fine. And I love all four names! But it’s also worth considering that if you intend to have more children, you might want to save one of the honor names for a later baby.
You could also find names with similar meanings. Emily means industrious.
And Chieko means wisdom.
Some ideas:
Primrose Ida Sage “Poppy”
Millie Sage
Poppy Sophronia
Sophie Ida Primrose
Ida Millie Primrose
Poppy Elke Ramona
Millie Poppy Zella
Millie Ramona Primrose
I love the idea of including both your baby’s grandma and great-grandma in her name! I actually quite like either of your first name options with [name_f]Emily[/name_f] Cheiko as a middle combo; the repeated “ee” sounds don’t bother me here. But [name_f]Emily[/name_f] + Cheiko also immediately made me think of [name_f]Emiko[/name_f], if you’re open to combining? I think [name_f]Emiko[/name_f] works beautifully with either of your first name choices!
I also like the suggestions of [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] Cheiko and [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f], could also have nn [name_u]Perry[/name_u]. Maybe [name_f]Apolline[/name_f] could be shortened to Poppy/Polly. [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] is another nice choice.
