Name my child for me, Jesus

General Name Discussion

This is way too much responsibility. Considering calling them “kid” until they have a personality

We have:

[name_f]Martha[/name_f] [name_u]Joan[/name_u] [name_u]Walker[/name_u]
[name_u]Billie[/name_u] [name_f]Fay[/name_f] [name_u]Walker[/name_u]
[name_f]Mavis[/name_f] [name_u]Joan[/name_u] [name_u]Walker[/name_u]
[name_f]Lilith[/name_f] [name_f]Sappho[/name_f] [name_u]Walker[/name_u]
[name_f]Liza[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] [name_u]Walker[/name_u]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_u]Billie[/name_u] [name_u]Walker[/name_u]

Or

[name_m]Rudie[/name_m] [name_m]Jonas[/name_m] [name_u]Walker[/name_u]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] [name_u]Walker[/name_u]
[name_m]Frank[/name_m] [name_m]Amos[/name_m] [name_u]Walker[/name_u]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Johannes[/name_m] [name_u]Walker[/name_u]
[name_m]Tobias[/name_m] ([name_u]Toby[/name_u]) [name_m]Sinbad[/name_m] [name_u]Walker[/name_u]
[name_m]Rudie[/name_m] [name_m]Tobias[/name_m] [name_u]Walker[/name_u]

Or any combination that strikes your fancy.

I don’t want a girl to feel fragile or a boy to feel excessively macho. [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] is my favourite saint and [name_m]Sinbad[/name_m], [name_m]Tobias[/name_m] and [name_f]Liza[/name_f] are family names. [name_m]Johannes[/name_m] is a friend but we like [name_m]Jonas[/name_m] too.

[name_f]Martha[/name_f] [name_u]Joan[/name_u] and [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] are my favourites, but if I were to play around with them, I’d pick [name_f]Martha[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] or [name_u]Billie[/name_u] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] and [name_m]Frank[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u]! :slight_smile:

I think [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] is becoming a favourite for us too, thanks!

4

I like [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_u]Billie[/name_u] and [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u]. [name_f]Lilith[/name_f] [name_f]Sappho[/name_f] is pretty as well, but it seems like it would be a hard name to wear, just given there are two strong associations behind each name.

5

[name_u]Billie[/name_u] [name_f]Fay[/name_f] & [name_f]Mavis[/name_f] [name_u]Joan[/name_u] are my favourites - both gorgeous!!
[name_u]Billie[/name_u] [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Liza[/name_f] [name_f]Lilith[/name_f], [name_f]Fay[/name_f] [name_f]Sappho[/name_f]?

[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] is fab. Is [name_m]Rudie[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] an option? He sounds like a rockstar. Amazing.

6

[name_u]Billie[/name_u] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] (MUCH BETTER [name_u]RHYTHM[/name_u] THIS [name_m]WAY[/name_m] AROUND) [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] and [name_m]Rudie[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] are all really good, but I think maybe [name_m]Rudie[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] is almost too cool for even a son of /mine/ to live up to, very high-pressure.
What do you think of [name_f]Mavis[/name_f]? I love it but I sometimes worry it’s too grown up.
[name_u]Love[/name_u] the the names in your sig by the way. I love [name_u]Oberon[/name_u] but my partner thinks naming our child after the [name_f]Fairy[/name_f] [name_m]King[/name_m] is a too much to give the kid of gay parents

[name_f]Mavis[/name_f] [name_u]Joan[/name_u], [name_f]Liza[/name_f] [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] (cute!), and [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] are my favorites.

Some other suggestions:
[name_u]Billie[/name_u] [name_f]Liza[/name_f]
[name_f]Harriet[/name_f] [name_f]Mavis[/name_f]
[name_f]Liza[/name_f] [name_f]Lilith[/name_f]
[name_f]Liza[/name_f] [name_f]Mavis[/name_f]
[name_f]Mavis[/name_f] [name_f]Fay[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Fay[/name_f]

[name_m]Frank[/name_m] [name_m]Jonas[/name_m]
[name_m]Frank[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u]
[name_m]Jonas[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u]
[name_m]Rudie[/name_m] [name_m]Johannes[/name_m]
[name_m]Tobias[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m]
[name_m]Tobias[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u]

Of these, I like [name_f]Mavis[/name_f] [name_f]Fay[/name_f] and [name_m]Jonas[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] the best.

I agree with lots of posters before me: [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] is great. I also like the suggestion of [name_m]Rudie[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] - very very rockstar-esque! [name_f]Mavis[/name_f] [name_u]Joan[/name_u] is nice - if you’re considering mix-and-match suggestions, I like [name_f]Lilith[/name_f] [name_f]Mavis[/name_f] a lot. [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_u]Billie[/name_u], [name_m]Arthur[/name_m], and [name_m]Tobias[/name_m] are all lovely and classic to fall back on if you get stuck.

I like [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Fay[/name_f] or [name_f]Liza[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f].

I love [name_m]Jonas[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u]. I love Saphho as a middle too. Maybe [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Sappho[/name_f]? I guess that would translate to “purple sapphire”. What about [name_f]Liza[/name_f] Saphho?

You asked what people think of [name_f]Mavis[/name_f]- I think of [name_f]Mavis[/name_f] Staples!

[name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_f]Martha[/name_f] [name_u]Joan[/name_u] and would like to meet one! [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] is also awesome. Honorable mention for [name_f]Liza[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]. You have lots of great combinations.
