Name the Babies - G2R1

Baby Name Games
1

We are on to Generation 2!

The kids have grown up and gotten married, and have their own, even wackier, naming preferences!

For instructions, refer to G1R1 here.

LN: [name_m]Smith[/name_m]
DH: [name_m]Matteo[/name_m] [name_m]Cedrick[/name_m] (nee Salutine-Smith)
DW: [name_f]Athena[/name_f] [name_f]Alexia[/name_f] (nee Harrison)
[name_f]Athena[/name_f] grew up with a sibling set of Alphabetical Greek names while Matteo’s siblings names were a world medley! Over the patterns of their parents, they decide no funny patterns for them! Each child to have their own name and style. For their first child, a boy, they want a name outside the top 1000. Something they’ve never heard of. Something without a huge, weighty history.
DS:

LN: [name_m]Wallace[/name_m]
DH: [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] [name_m]Kit[/name_m]
DW: [name_f]Juniper[/name_f] [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] “Perry”
[name_m]Perry[/name_m] has grown up loving names, and is obsessed with “Old school” names. She wants to give their daughter a name that hasn’t been in the US Top 1000 since at least 1950. She’s gone by [name_m]Perry[/name_m] her whole life, and hates [name_f]Juniper[/name_f], so she wants to give the kid whatever name they will actually call her, none of this give them a proper first name with a nickname business. [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] wants to honour his mother, [name_f]Flora[/name_f], with the middle name. (Be creative :slight_smile: )
DD:

LN: Salutine-Jones
DH: [name_m]Elio[/name_m] [name_m]Samson[/name_m]
DH: [name_m]Kai[/name_m] [name_m]Sonny[/name_m]
[name_m]Elio[/name_m] and [name_m]Kai[/name_m] are adopting a little boy! His name should honour Kai’s mothers, [name_f]Priscilla[/name_f] and [name_f]Rachel[/name_f], and have no religious ties. His middle name should honour Elio’s parents, [name_f]Allie[/name_f] and [name_m]Robert[/name_m].
DS:

LN: Zucker
DH: [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] [name_m]Lane[/name_m]
DW: [name_f]Cassia[/name_f] [name_f]Clare[/name_f]
[name_m]Alistair[/name_m] and [name_f]Cassia[/name_f] love name patterns. They spend hours debating what their pattern should be, worrying that whatever they name their first born will set the standard. Help them out! Pick a name and suggest a fun pattern to follow for the future babies! They want a pattern that is fun but unique and not overly limiting. [name_f]Cassia[/name_f] is very close to her sister, [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Dove[/name_f], so would love to honour her sister in the baby’s middle name in some way that doesn’t ruin the theme.
DD:

LN: [name_m]Wallace[/name_m]
DH: [name_m]Gatsby[/name_m] [name_m]Lysander[/name_m]
DW: [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] [name_f]Opal[/name_f]
[name_m]Gatsby[/name_m] and [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] are expecting twins - which delights them since they are both twins themselves. It is twin girls. [name_m]Gatsby[/name_m] wants names that come from the [name_m]Maverick[/name_m] list (here) while [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] wants names from the [name_m]Urban[/name_m] Prairies list (here). Give twin A a [name_m]Maverick[/name_m] first name with an [name_m]Urban[/name_m] Prairies middle, and twin B a [name_m]Urban[/name_m] Prairies first name with a [name_m]Maverick[/name_m] middle!
DD/DD:

  1. [name_m]Smith[/name_m] Family
    DS: [name_m]Fox[/name_m] [name_m]Cormac[/name_m] (this name is really unique and very cool. I doubt anyone has met a boy called [name_m]Fox[/name_m], making the name well and truly his)

  2. [name_m]Wallace[/name_m] Family
    DD: [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Azalea[/name_f] (Iris can’t really be shortened, and both [name_f]Iris[/name_f] and [name_f]Azalea[/name_f] are flower girls names, to honour Flora)

  3. Salutine-Jones Family
    DS: [name_m]Chris[/name_m] [name_m]Albert[/name_m] (raCHel, pRIScilla, ALlie, roBERT)

  4. Zucker Family
    DD: [name_f]Sunshine[/name_f] [name_f]Olive[/name_f] “Sunnie” (first names could be linked to seasons, middle names could be symbols of peace)

  5. [name_m]Wallace[/name_m] Family
    DD/DD: [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] [name_m]March[/name_m] & Silvabelle [name_f]Sally[/name_f] (Marigold is an [name_m]Urban[/name_m] [name_f]Prairie[/name_f] name, and [name_m]March[/name_m] is a [name_m]Maverick[/name_m] name as it is traditionally used for boys. Silvabelle is very odd and one of a kind, making it a [name_m]Maverick[/name_m] name, while [name_f]Sally[/name_f] is vintage making it an [name_m]Urban[/name_m] [name_f]Prairie[/name_f] name. I also added an extra connection between them with the “mariGOLD and SILVAbelle” (gold and silver))

DS: [name_m]Caspian[/name_m]

Meaning: While [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] is often associated with the [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] [name_m]Sea[/name_m], it’s not a heavily traditional name, making it feel fresh and modern. It has a whimsical quality without the weight of a long history, fitting perfectly with their desire for something unique and less common.

If you’d like another option:

DS: Jorvik

Meaning: Jorvik is a historical name derived from the old Norse name for the city of [name_m]York[/name_m], but it feels modern and unusual. It doesn’t carry a heavy historical baggage like some other names and has a fun sound to it!

DD: [name_f]Mabel[/name_f] [name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_m]Wallace[/name_m]

Explanation:

  • [name_f]Mabel[/name_f] is a charming, vintage name that means “lovable” and has a warm, friendly feel. It hasn’t been in the top 1000 since the early 1950s, fitting perfectly with Perry’s criteria.
  • [name_f]Flora[/name_f] honors Caspian’s mother beautifully and complements the vintage vibe of [name_f]Mabel[/name_f].

DS: [name_m]Raleigh[/name_m] [name_m]Allister[/name_m] Salutine-Jones

Explanation:

  • [name_m]Raleigh[/name_m] is a unique name that honors [name_f]Rachel[/name_f] through the “R” sound and evokes a modern feel without religious ties. It also has a connection to [name_f]Priscilla[/name_f] with its feminine yet strong undertones.
  • [name_m]Allister[/name_m] is a variant of the name [name_m]Alistair[/name_m], which can reflect [name_f]Allie[/name_f] while also connecting to [name_m]Robert[/name_m] through the “R” sound.

DD: [name_f]Sable[/name_f] [name_f]Dove[/name_f] Zucker

Suggested Pattern: Nature-Inspired Names with Alliteration

  1. First Name: Each child’s first name will be inspired by nature (animals, plants, colors, etc.) but will start with a different letter of the alphabet.
  2. Middle Name: The middle name will honor family members or carry a whimsical touch that aligns with their interests, and it can have a theme of softness or beauty, like “Dove.”

  • DD2: [name_f]Thistle[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] Zucker (a plant-inspired name with a gentle middle name)
  • DS: [name_f]Briar[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] Zucker (a nature-inspired name with a whimsical, melodic middle)
  • DD3: [name_f]Maple[/name_f] [name_f]Fawn[/name_f] Zucker (another plant-inspired name, with a gentle animal reference)
