Sorry, I know that I am posting a lot, but I just feel like if I pin down this girls name the boys name will come easier.
I have focused down my favorite names that my husband has okayed (does anyone else’s husband seem to think it is okay to not actually input on new names but will only veto name I chose?)
I tried to narrow it down to only the names that I would for sure use this second:
I will be using two middle names and one will be an ‘M’ name
*[name]Lilly[/name] [name]Grace[/name] _____ M_____ (I will probably use one of my favorites first as a second middle for this name)
*[name]Amelia[/name]/[name]Emilia[/name]/[name]Emeline[/name] [name]Grace[/name] M____ (I love all of these so I put them together)
*[name]Caitlin[/name] [name]Grace[/name] M____
*[name]Imogen[/name] [name]Grace[/name] M____
*[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Grace[/name] M____
I have narrowed down the ‘M’ names to these ones:
[name]Maeve[/name] (but I think it clashes with [name]Grace[/name])
Madalina
[name]Mathilde[/name]/[name]Matilda[/name]
[name]Mirabelle[/name]
Mylene
[name]Maia[/name]/[name]Maya[/name]
[name]Melinda[/name]
If anyone is good at combing these names to sound good and flow well I would greatly appreciate it. I promise this is my last post to find girls names. After this it will be boys! lol.
[name]Just[/name] to remind you, my daughter and sons names are:
Annabeth [name]Spencer[/name] [name]Melisande[/name] and [name]Maxwell[/name] [name]Tiberius[/name] [name]Elliot[/name].
Thank you.
With Annabeth and [name]Maxwell[/name], I like [name]Amelia[/name]/[name]Emilia[/name] and [name]Lydia[/name], though the others are fine too. [name]Lydia[/name]'s one of my favorites! I adore [name]Maeve[/name], but I agree it doesn’t go too well with [name]Grace[/name] so I’ll suggest random other middle names. Also, [name]Lily[/name] [name]Grace[/name] ___ ___ is a LOT of names, even if [name]Lily[/name] [name]Grace[/name] was a double name… why not just [name]Lily[/name] [name]Grace[/name] Mname?
Yeah I know [name]Lilly[/name] [name]Grace[/name] is a lot of name I am just going to let it die hard.
The reason for [name]Grace[/name] is that it is the meaning of [name]Anna[/name] and every girl for generations in my family has a [name]Anna[/name]/[name]Ann[/name] name but since I have an Annabeth I don’t feel comfortable using another [name]Anna[/name] name so I wanted to use [name]Grace[/name] instead so that she would still have a connection. These are our last children so I wouldn’t have to worry about adding another [name]Anna[/name] name after this.
These are the ones I like:
[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Mirabelle[/name] [name]Grace[/name]
[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Grace[/name] [name]Mathilde[/name]
[name]Emilia[/name] [name]Grace[/name] Mylene
[name]Imogen[/name] [name]Maia[/name] [name]Grace[/name]
[name]Imogen[/name] [name]Mirabelle[/name] [name]Grace[/name]
[name]Imogen[/name] [name]Grace[/name] [name]Maddalena[/name]
[name]Imogen[/name] [name]Grace[/name] [name]Matilda[/name]
[name]Imogen[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] - This one is awesome because my twin brother’s name is [name]Alexander[/name] so that kind of connects him!
[name]Caitlin[/name] [name]Maia[/name] [name]Grace[/name] - is this a prettier version of [name]Maia[/name]? I am never sure if I like [name]Maia[/name], [name]Maya[/name] or [name]Maja[/name] better.
[name]Caitlin[/name] [name]Matilda[/name] [name]Grace[/name]
[name]Caitlin[/name] [name]Mirabelle[/name] [name]Grace[/name]
[name]Caitlin[/name] [name]Eloise[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] - [name]Eloise[/name] just barely didn’t make my short list.
I’m sad you don’t like [name]Eloise[/name] more I think it’s just adorable with Annabeth and [name]Maxwell[/name]! [name]Eloise[/name] [name]Grace[/name] [name]Matilda[/name] (or even better, [name]Eloise[/name] [name]Matilda[/name] [name]Grace[/name]!)
My favorite from your list is [name]Emeline[/name] (followed by [name]Emilia[/name] and [name]Lydia[/name])
I’m having a difficult time with [name]Grace[/name] as the first middle, putting it on the end seems to improve flow.
From the ones you like I have bolded my favorites: [name]Lydia[/name] [name]Mirabelle[/name] [name]Grace[/name]
[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Grace[/name] [name]Mathilde[/name]
[name]Emilia[/name] [name]Grace[/name] Mylene
[name]Imogen[/name] [name]Maia[/name] [name]Grace[/name] [name]Imogen[/name] [name]Mirabelle[/name] [name]Grace[/name]
[name]Imogen[/name] [name]Grace[/name] [name]Maddalena[/name]
[name]Imogen[/name] [name]Grace[/name] [name]Matilda[/name] [name]Imogen[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name]
[name]Caitlin[/name] [name]Maia[/name] [name]Grace[/name]
[name]Imogen[/name] is fantastic as well, I just have never been able to really get behind this name. [name]Do[/name] you pronounce it IM-oh-gen or IM-oh-gene? I tend to alternate between the two and I don’t find either intuitive.
Sorry about the [name]LONG[/name] post! Good [name]Luck[/name]!
I love [name]Imogen[/name] and [name]Lydia[/name]! [name]Caitlin[/name] (I love the original spelling most) and all of her mega name spellings are way overused in my opinion, especially compared to sweet, vintage [name]Maxwell[/name] and Annabeth. I still know so many [name]Caitlin[/name]'s, mostly in their mid to late 20s. In fact my best friend is a [name]Kaitlin[/name], but she goes by [name]Katie[/name], no one ever calls her [name]Kaitlin[/name] unless they don’t know her and she prefers it that way.
[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Mirabelle[/name] [name]Grace[/name] * I like the way [name]Lydie[/name] (nn) sounds similar to [name]Lilly[/name], [name]Mirabelle[/name] is French so that is a nod to my mil and it incorporates [name]Grace[/name] in there nicely. I also like that [name]Lydia[/name] sounds nice with Annabeth and [name]Maxwell[/name].
My back up name will be:
[name]Imogen[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] I pr. [name]Imogen[/name] like emuh*jen and like how it sounds with [name]Lydia[/name]. They have the same feeling to me and aren’t very popular. [name]Alexandra[/name] works as a middle because my twin brother’s name is [name]Alexander[/name] so this is to honor someone who has been a part of my life since birth. And [name]Maeve[/name] is my favorite M name.
Thank you for all your help. Being able to have everything written down made it clear in my mind.
I am sad about leaving behind my other names but here is why:
[name]Lilly[/name] *I love this as [name]Lilly[/name] [name]Grace[/name] but I don’t think [name]Lilly[/name] works alone for me.
[name]Caitlin[/name] *I agree that [name]Caitlin[/name] is very popular, but I would still use it if it were number one. I just felt that [name]Lydia[/name] worked better with my other names.
[name]Emeline[/name]/[name]Emilia[/name] *I love both of these names but like [name]Caitlin[/name] they have the fact of popularity against them. I feel like they could get stuck in with the [name]Emily[/name]/[name]Emma[/name] crowd.
[name]Amelia[/name] *This is the hardest one to leave behind. I adore [name]Amelia[/name] and [name]Amy[/name]/[name]Milly[/name] nn.
a lot, but I don’t think that it sounds as great as [name]Lydia[/name] and [name]Imogen[/name]… oh well maybe one of my children will love it and use it for a granddaughter.
Wow! What a great surprise you narrowed it down that fast! Congrats, it’s a GORGEOUS name! Best to you and your family!
I forgot to say your backup is stunning as well, you can’t lose with either. I love how you got to work in your twin and also favorite M name and one of mine as well
You wouldn’t say that if you were around me all day when I was repeating names over and over again. [name]Max[/name] finally asked me to be quiet because he was trying to ‘read’ a book…
It is tentative but I hope it will stick.
I had [name]Beth[/name]'s name chosen with two days of finding out I was pregnant. [name]Max[/name]'s name was harder because I was fighting for [name]Tiberius[/name] and my husband wanted [name]Elliot[/name].
Now off to figure out boys names!
YAY, congrats! [name]Lydia[/name] [name]Mirabelle[/name] [name]Grace[/name] is so pretty and [name]Imogen[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] is so spunky
Yay for deciding on 2 beautiful names! I love how [name]Grace[/name] and [name]Alexandra[/name] are so meaningful, as well as the gems [name]Mirabelle[/name] and [name]Maeve[/name]! I secretly hope you end up having 2 girls so you can use both haha
My husband says he is going to blame you if we have two girls! I think he is enjoying the thought of another son. (Not that he wouldn’t love two daughters!)
