Name help - sibling for Florence

Name Advice
1

Hi all,

We have a little girl called Florence and I am due with our second baby soon. We have kept the gender a surprise so need names for girl and boy.

So far we have:-

Girl:-
Isla
Imogen
Ivy

Boy:-
Noah
Stirling

I liked Isla when I had Florence so am leaning that way. Husband is leaning towards Imogen. Struggling with middle names other than Grace after my grandma. As a random pick I love Clementine as a middle name.

We both like Noah with Stirling as middle name.

What does everyone think? Other suggestions of names with a similar vibe (for first or middle) very welcome!

Thank you!

[name_f]Isla[/name_f], [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] all work well. [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] is my favourite - it feels substantial, elegant and strong like Florence-but [name_f]Isla[/name_f] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] work well too.

[name_u]Noah[/name_u] is a good pick. Solid, sweet and safe, with [name_u]Stirling[/name_u] as a bolder middle choice.

With [name_u]Florence[/name_u], I’ll also throw in the suggestions…

[name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Amelie[/name_f]
[name_f]Penelope[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
[name_f]Lydia[/name_f]
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f]
[name_u]Henry[/name_u]
[name_u]Daniel[/name_u]
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m]
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u]
[name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m]
[name_u]Robin[/name_u]
[name_m]Isaac[/name_m]

Ooh I really like [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] with [name_u]Florence[/name_u]! [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] is lovely. Recognisable but not overdone. [name_f]Every[/name_f] other baby girl is named [name_f]Isla[/name_f] where I live so I’d avoid that personally. [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] is also quite popular but I do love [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f]. Other girl names I like with Florence…

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f]
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]
[name_f]Penelope[/name_f]
[name_f]Harriet[/name_f]

[name_u]Noah[/name_u] is gorgeous. Its also top 3 or so where I live but I’ve never actually met one! I don’t love [name_u]Stirling[/name_u], it feels a bit nouveau riche or something? Maybe…

[name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_u]George[/name_u]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_m]Benedict[/name_m]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_u]Willoughby[/name_u]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_u]Tristan[/name_u]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_u]Spencer[/name_u]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_u]Flynn[/name_u]

Other boy names I like with Florence…

[name_u]Henry[/name_u]
[name_m]Patrick[/name_m]
[name_u]William[/name_u]
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m]
[name_m]Louis[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m]

[name_u]Florence[/name_u] is sweet!
–Isla is my favorite of the three you have mentioned. I think they sound nice together.
–Imogen isn’t my style of name, but I do think it flows really well with [name_u]Florence[/name_u] as a sister.
–Ivy is just really not my style at all, plus I think it clashes stylistically with [name_u]Florence[/name_u].

[name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] and [name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] both sound very pretty. [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] is quite pretty (I’m a huge fan of [name_f]Grace[/name_f], plus I love that it’s after your grandma).

–Noah is an amazing name. It doesn’t flow perfectly with [name_u]Florence[/name_u], but it’s so adorable. I love it.
–Stirling is not my style at all, but if you love it, then [name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_u]Stirling[/name_u] sounds well.

Other suggestions that I like with [name_u]Florence[/name_u].

I like [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] with [name_u]Florence[/name_u] and [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] is a lovely combo.

I like [name_u]Noah[/name_u] and [name_u]Stirling[/name_u] and the combo is ok, just not what I would choose as a sibling to [name_u]Florence[/name_u]. I like the suggestions of [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m].

I personally like [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] or [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] for Florence’s sister. [name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_u]Stirling[/name_u] is a nice option for a little boy.

I adore [name_f]Clementine[/name_f], so I think [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] and [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] (and [name_f]Isla[/name_f] Clementine) make gorgeous combinations!

I think [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] goes best with [name_u]Florence[/name_u] because [name_f]Isla[/name_f] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] feel more modern, and [name_u]Florence[/name_u] feels more old fashioned. [name_f]Isla[/name_f] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] are fine, I just prefer [name_f]Imogen[/name_f].
I surprisingly like [name_u]Florence[/name_u] and [name_u]Stirling[/name_u] as a sibset! I know you said you like [name_u]Stirling[/name_u] as a middle name (and I prefer spelling Sterling), but I think [name_u]Florence[/name_u] and [name_u]Stirling[/name_u] is a cute sibset. [name_u]Noah[/name_u] is always a safe, good name choice, of course, but I don’t think it matches [name_u]Florence[/name_u] as well as [name_u]Stirling[/name_u] does.

Suggestions that I think are similar to [name_u]Florence[/name_u] (any repeats are agreements. I’m also not good with middle names, sorry!):

Girls:
[name_f]Alexandra[/name_f]
[name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Catherine[/name_f] / [name_f]Katherine[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] / [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f]
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Theodora[/name_f]

Boys:
[name_m]Alastair[/name_m] / [name_m]Alistair[/name_m]
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m]
[name_u]Charles[/name_u]
[name_m]Desmond[/name_m]
[name_u]Gabriel[/name_u]

I adore [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] and [name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_u]Sterling[/name_u] as siblings for [name_u]Florence[/name_u]!

Congratulations!

Firstly absolutely love [name_u]Noah[/name_u] he’s so handsome, soft and cuddly a really gorgeous name. I’ve always been a fan of the peaceful tranquility of the cuddly classic that is [name_u]Noah[/name_u]. [name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_u]Stirling[/name_u] is a very lovely combination! I honestly think you’ve nailed the boys. [name_u]Florence[/name_u] & [name_u]Noah[/name_u] also work wonders.

Names with a similar feel to [name_u]Noah[/name_u] are [name_u]Ezra[/name_u], [name_m]Abel[/name_m], [name_u]Jude[/name_u], [name_m]Oliver[/name_m], [name_u]Leo[/name_u], [name_u]Teddy[/name_u], [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] & [name_m]Isaac[/name_m]. In my opinion they all work well [name_u]Stirling[/name_u].

Looking at your girls I love [name_f]Imogen[/name_f]! [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] is just so gorgeous such a beautiful classy Shakespearean name that sounds stunning with [name_u]Florence[/name_u]. [name_u]Florence[/name_u] & [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] are beautiful. [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] is lush. [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] works well with [name_u]Florence[/name_u] but is very popular and I think influx of Ivy’s everywhere makes her feel very predictable especially with [name_u]Florence[/name_u] which is also popular. I prefer [name_f]Iris[/name_f]. [name_f]Iris[/name_f] feels similar to [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] with her being a vintage botanical choice but isn’t as popular. [name_u]Florence[/name_u] & [name_f]Iris[/name_f] are sweet. Regarding [name_f]Isla[/name_f] I’ve never been an overly keen I’m just not keen on the sound of [name_f]Isla[/name_f] and again she is very popular so just doesn’t feel as perfect as [name_f]Imogen[/name_f]. [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] is popular but not overwhelmingly so and is so graceful so lacks the trendy aspect that [name_f]Isla[/name_f] has. Could you upgrade [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] to the first name slot? [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] is beautiful, bright, sparkly and feels cohesive with [name_u]Florence[/name_u]. [name_u]Florence[/name_u] & [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] are such a stunning pair. [name_f]Grace[/name_f] is a lovely middle name and works well with all your choices. I like the sentimental value she adds too.

Names similar to your girls that you may like [name_f]Ione[/name_f], [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f], [name_u]Esme[/name_u], [name_u]Hazel[/name_u], [name_f]Lyra[/name_f], [name_f]Elodie[/name_f], [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] or [name_f]Lilia[/name_f] I think they all share similar qualities to your list and work well [name_f]Grace[/name_f].

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps

[name_u]Florence[/name_u] and [name_f]Isla[/name_f] are lovely lilting and light names that go very well together! [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] is is great style match too. [name_f]My[/name_f] favourite is [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]. I think [name_u]Florence[/name_u] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] are quite perfect. [name_f]Isla[/name_f] sounds great with [name_f]Grace[/name_f] or [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] and I’d pick the latter so she’d have a more rare middle to go with her popular first name.
Some middle name ideas:

[name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_f]Primrose[/name_f]
[name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_f]Gracelyn[/name_f]
[name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_f]Tess[/name_f]
[name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_u]Noa[/name_u]
[name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_f]Estelle[/name_f]

[name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Tansy[/name_f]
[name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Maris[/name_f]
[name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Ottilia[/name_f]

[name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Angeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Anneliese[/name_f]
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_u]Garance[/name_u]
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]

I can readily see [name_u]Noah[/name_u] as a younger sibling to [name_u]Florence[/name_u]. [name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_u]Stirling[/name_u] is a very handsome name! [name_u]Noah[/name_u] and [name_u]Stirling[/name_u] remind me of:

[name_u]Nelson[/name_u]
[name_u]Sullivan[/name_u]

Your girl has a beautiful name. I adore [name_u]Florence[/name_u]! All of your choices are really lovely. With sweet, classic, earthy [name_u]Florence[/name_u], I personally prefer [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] for a sister and [name_u]Noah[/name_u] for a brother.
They match stylistically in that classic, very grounded and lovely sort of way. All of them are trusty, triumphant little names! :herb:

With [name_u]Florence[/name_u], I also love…

[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] (one of my faves with dear [name_f]Flo[/name_f]. I just love the two of them together as spunky, vibrant sisters!)

[name_m]Hi[/name_m]! Congratulations on baby #2!

I absolutely love the name [name_u]Florence[/name_u]. It’s a beautiful, timeless classic. I really like [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] and [name_f]Isla[/name_f] but I feel like [name_f]Isla[/name_f] is a bit too short with [name_u]Florence[/name_u]? I think this is just a personal issue though because I know I’m particular about name lengths :joy: I also think [name_f]Grace[/name_f] would be a lovely middle name to honor your grandma.

I really like both of your boy names but I think [name_u]Stirling[/name_u] and [name_u]Florence[/name_u] would make a lovely sibset!

I’m suggesting other names I consider timeless classics + a few I think are cool!
