Name for 3rd baby?

Name Advice
1

We have an [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Axl[/name_m] and [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] [name_f]Annabel[/name_f]. We are expecting baby #3 and do not know the gender yet but we are struggling with names. We lean more traditional for boys names but can venture out for the right name. Husband likes [name_u]Tristan[/name_u] or [name_m]Peter[/name_m]. I don’t love but I don’t hate those names. I would love a [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] or [name_u]Henry[/name_u] but husband isn’t on board. For girls we are hesitant to go floral again but might for the right name. I can’t seem to find something I like that’s as spunky as [name_f]Poppy[/name_f]. Husband likes [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] or [name_f]Alice[/name_f].

Any thoughts or help?!

Hmmm I think Peter will be quite unusual among his peers, while Henry will possibly be too popular. Hugo would be great but might not be able to re-pitch it? Tristan is OK but I couldn’t get past the meaning - unless I loved the feel and sound of the name itself. I love Daisy, and e-bike Alice goes well (means all get their own starting letter and ending sound), I’m a grump about Alice - don’t love (but it gets a lot of time on here). How about:

Oliver, Poppy &

Constance (Coco/Tansy)
Iris
Heather
Zara
Georgia
Madeleine
Tallulah
Grace
Elise
Jessamine
Arabella
Lydia
Amelia (but maybe don’t what Oli and Millie?)
Mabel
Eliza
Flora (if OK with Poppy?)
Hazel
Tabitha
Esther (nn Esti)
Marianne

Tobias (Toby)
Frederick (Freddie)
Edward (Ted)
Simon
Sebastian
Timothy
Julian
Felix
Lucas
August (maybe too popular?)
Griffen
Thomas
Charles (Charlie)
Hugh
Dylan
Benjamin
Samuel
Miles
Rupert
Joseph

Sweet names! And congrats on number three mama!

For traditional boy names, would [name_m]Hugh[/name_m] work? Like [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] and [name_u]Henry[/name_u] but classic enough!
A few other suggestions are:
[name_m]Kellan[/name_m]
[name_u]Lionel[/name_u]
[name_u]Arthur[/name_u]
[name_u]Emerson[/name_u]
[name_u]Jonah[/name_u]
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m]

For girl names I think [name_f]Alice[/name_f] is super sweet! I like how [name_m]Oliver[/name_m], [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], and [name_f]Alice[/name_f] sound together :heart_eyes:
A few other ideas:
[name_f]Esther[/name_f]
[name_f]Winnie[/name_f]
[name_f]Shania[/name_f]
[name_f]Annalie[/name_f]
[name_f]Ramona[/name_f]

Boys
[name_m]Peter[/name_m] is quite rare these days, I rather like it.

[name_m]Philip[/name_m]
[name_u]Daniel[/name_u]
[name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_m]Thomas[/name_m]
[name_u]George[/name_u]

There are also lists for these too.
You will find the right name for your baby, it might take a little time, that’s all. Good luck :+1:

[name_u]Henry[/name_u] would be a good fit if you can convince him. What about just [name_m]Hugh[/name_m]? Otherwise: [name_u]Elliot[/name_u], [name_u]Jasper[/name_u], [name_m]Felix[/name_m], [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], [name_m]Thomas[/name_m]. Both [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] and [name_f]Alice[/name_f] are lovely. [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] matches very well. Suggestions: [name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Imogen[/name_f], [name_f]Lila[/name_f].

Congratulations :tada:

[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Axl[/name_m] + [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] [name_f]Annabel[/name_f] are gorgeous!

From your husbands options I love [name_u]Tristan[/name_u] + [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] with your kiddos names. [name_u]Tristan[/name_u] is such a gorgeous name and has a literary feel. I think [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] is also lovely with your children’s names. [name_f]Lovely[/name_f] sibling set.
I love [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] + [name_u]Henry[/name_u] shame hubby isn’t on board.

First, congrats! Second, as a name nerd, it eternally surprises me how hard it is to name a baby!

For a boy, [name_u]Tristan[/name_u] and [name_m]Peter[/name_m] don’t work for me with [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Axl[/name_m] and [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] [name_f]Annabel[/name_f]. [name_u]Henry[/name_u], I’ve always liked (and nn Hank) but is popular. [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] works perfectly! Other suggestions -
[name_m]Otis[/name_m]
[name_u]Rhett[/name_u]
[name_u]Milo[/name_u] !!
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] !!

For a girl, I love [name_f]Alice[/name_f]! And it fits with your other two! Some other thoughts -
[name_u]Fern[/name_u] (for your floral connection)
[name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] (same)
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f] !!
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] !!

Marked my favs for you with !!

I love the continuation of an “o” strong name. I think having it at the end would be perfect and make your trio so cohesive

[name_u]Milo[/name_u]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m]
[name_u]Leo[/name_u]
[name_u]Theo[/name_u]

[name_f]Margo[/name_f] (t)

Good luck!
