Desperate to find a name we love, and fits with siblings for baby boy #3[name_f][/name_f] due soon!
[name_f][/name_f]
Brothers: [name_f][/name_f]N.oa.h Ai.de.n “calm little fire” [name_f][/name_f]Ma.th.eo Is.aa.c “God’s gift of laughter” [name_f][/name_f]- baby born after years of ttc
[name_f][/name_f]
Does this name fit? [name_f][/name_f]L.ia.m O.ce.an “protector of the ocean” [name_f][/name_f]It’s the only name we can agree on right now, but I’m not sure it fits with brothers [name_f][/name_f]- especially M’s name.
[name_f][/name_f]
Does the sibset feel odd if we don’t stick to names that include an a [name_f][/name_f]- o [name_f][/name_f]- h?
[name_f][/name_f]
Any opinions, suggestions? [name_f][/name_f]Name has to fit for Scandi and [name_f]English[/name_f]. [name_f][/name_f]Needs to have pleasant meaning. [name_f][/name_f]Can’t end in S.
I think it works [name_f][/name_f]- both M and N are familiar names like L.ia.m and they all have good meaning. I think it’s fine not to stick to a-o-h names [name_f][/name_f]- I might have noticed if I was looking for patterns, but when being introduced to sibs, I wouldn’t have thought about it.
[name_f][/name_f]
A few suggestions:
[name_f][/name_f]
A.lex / A.lec / Alexa.der Oc.ean (“defender of the ocean”)
I think it works just fine with older siblings. It’s not what I’d necessarily think of as a sibling name but it’s gentle in sound and not dissimilar in popularity.
[name_f][/name_f]
I wouldn’t limit your options based on the letter pattern. It makes the task a lot harder without much gain. I don’t think anyone would noticed unless they were looking really closely, any even then, it’s just a coincidence.
[name_f][/name_f]
It’s good to have a name you can agree on --even if it’s just one. Nice to have a few more options too. A few ideas:
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Aaron[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- high mountain, exalted, enlightened [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- helper [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Josiah[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- [name_m]God[/name_m] supports, heals [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Abel[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- breath [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Casper[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- bringer of treasure [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Ethan[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- strong, enduring, firm [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- [name_m]God[/name_m] had given [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Hugo[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- bright in mind and spirit [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Reuben[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- behold, a son [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Ezekiel[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- [name_m]God[/name_m] is strong, [name_m]God[/name_m] strengthens
I think it works well especially since there’s a strong o and a in the middle name and [name_m]Ocean[/name_m] connects with N’s naturey middle name as well!
I think N0ah, Mathe0 & Li@m would work perfectly as a sibset. They are all very popular and current names. I wouldn’t have thought twice about Li@m not sharing the same letters as the first two. I also love the combination of Li@m 0cean!!! So I would go for it!
[name_m]Liam[/name_m] definitely fits with the brother names! I also love the opposition of [name_m]Ocean[/name_m] in his name to the fire meaning in his brother’s name. It feels very balanced with the meanings
[name_f][/name_f]
I don’t think having an a-o-h is needed in the names either! I do notice patterns very easily and for me [name_m]Liam[/name_m] feels very in place with the brothers’ and not at all like the odd one out!
[name_f][/name_f]
I think it’s a perfect choice for you guys and if you both love it/agree on it, that’s more of a reason to use it but if not I’ll suggest some names with meanings below just to help give more of a variety
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Archer[/name_m] “bowman” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Ashwin[/name_m] "possessed of horses; ash friend, ash tree + friend” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Auden[/name_m] “old friend” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Avan[/name_m] “protector” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Aven[/name_m] "agreeable and handsome; from Ave; son of [name_f]Ave[/name_f], white flower, beautiful sheen“ [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Callum[/name_m] “dove” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Dacre[/name_m] “trickling stream” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Elion[/name_m] “sun, [name_m]God[/name_m], divine” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Emeric[/name_m] “power” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Emre[/name_m] “friend” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Ethan[/name_m] “strong, firm” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Evan[/name_m] “God is gracious” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Fenn[/name_m] “wetland, marsh” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Hart[/name_m] “stag, also ties to love/heart” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Jared[/name_m] “he descends” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Oran[/name_m] “little green one, light” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Orion[/name_m] "boundary, limit, celestial” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Percy[/name_m] “one who pierces the valley” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Ronan[/name_m] “little seal” [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Shea[/name_f] “the stately, dauntless one” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Vann[/name_m] “of, from the marsh, peak, summit” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Zeke[/name_m] “God strengthens” [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Zenan[/name_m] “pointed, thorny, thought, opinion”
I love that [name_m]Liam[/name_m] would than give an L M N theme [name_f][/name_f]! I think [name_m]Liam[/name_m] and [name_m]Noah[/name_m] are both very common in my circles but M is a little more unique
[name_f][/name_f]
I don’t think you need a name with an O AH [name_f][/name_f] but if you are specifically looking for that have you considered:
