We’re expecting our second baby in February. Our daughter is named [name]Audrey[/name] [name]Josephine[/name] Kessinger ([name]Audrey[/name] [name]Jo[/name]). I like classic sounding names, but I’m having a hard time finding some that my husband and I both like! Right now, for a boy we’re thinking [name]Atticus[/name], I know two A names is lame, but I love the name… but for girls we’re lost! My husband likes [name]Veronica[/name], and I don’t think it goes with [name]Audrey[/name] very well… and I live [name]Olive[/name] or [name]Ruby[/name], and he likes neither! Any other names that would go with [name]Audrey[/name] and our last name (which is Kessinger)??
I love your daughter’s name (and think your last name is pretty cool, too)! I love [name]Veronica[/name], and do think it’s old-hollywood, a la [name]Audrey[/name], but at the same time, I can see how you don’t like the pairing.
What about:
[name]Amelia[/name] (another A, though)
[name]Cordelia[/name]
[name]Charlotte[/name]
[name]Celia[/name]
[name]Daphne[/name]
[name]Eliza[/name]
[name]Felicity[/name]
[name]Fiona[/name]
[name]Georgia[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name] (not the best with your last name, but I think the [name]Evie[/name] nn is cute!)
[name]Isla[/name]
[name]Ivy[/name] (may be too matchy with [name]Audrey[/name], though)
[name]Julia[/name]
[name]Louisa[/name]
[name]Lydia[/name]
[name]Laura[/name]
[name]Miranda[/name]
[name]Mirabel[/name]
[name]Phoebe[/name]
[name]Pearl[/name]
[name]Rosalie[/name]
[name]Rose[/name]
[name]Scarlett[/name]
[name]Susannah[/name]
[name]Violet[/name]
[name]Willa[/name]
[name]Audrey[/name] and…
[name]Beatrix[/name]
[name]Charlotte[/name]
[name]Daphne[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name]
[name]Elspeth[/name]
[name]Fiona[/name]
[name]Flora[/name]
[name]Francine[/name]
[name]Hazel[/name]
[name]Hilda[/name] - see [name]Velma[/name]
[name]Iona[/name]
[name]Iris[/name]
[name]Josephine[/name] nn [name]Josie[/name], [name]Fifi[/name], [name]Fina[/name]
[name]Maisie[/name]
[name]Matilda[/name] nn [name]Tilda[/name]
[name]Maxine[/name] (see [name]Velma[/name])
[name]Nora[/name]
[name]Olive[/name]
[name]Pippa[/name]
[name]Stella[/name]
[name]Willa[/name]
[name]Velma[/name] if you live in a Manhattan loft and are extremely brave!
I think [name]Beatrix[/name], [name]Fiona[/name] and [name]Georgia[/name] sound amazing with [name]Audrey[/name]! I apologize, but I am not a big fan of [name]Atticus[/name], and don’t think that it has the same style as [name]Audrey[/name]. Alternative boy names are:
I apologize if some of these have already been mentioned, but here’s my list of names that go with [name]Audrey[/name] ([name]Audrey[/name] is one of my favorites by the way )
For a girl, I love [name]Evelyn[/name] to go with [name]Audrey[/name]!
Also:
[name]Charlotte[/name]
[name]Natalie[/name]
For a Boy:
I personally love [name]Spencer[/name], may even use it myself- definately old hollywood
[name]Rex[/name]
[name]Atticus[/name] is Okay, if you love it it’s great!
Ones mentioned that I just love with [name]Audrey[/name] are [name]Lydia[/name] (fav. name of all time), [name]Fiona[/name], [name]Miranda[/name], [name]Iris[/name], [name]Claire[/name] & [name]Evelyn[/name] (another I just love). I do really like [name]Atticus[/name] as well, not just as a first but aslo as a middle name.
Here are a few for [name]Audrey[/name] -
[name]Olivia[/name]
[name]Grace[/name]
[name]Claire[/name]
[name]Delaney[/name]
[name]Evan[/name]
[name]Morgan[/name]
[name]Paulina[/name]
[name]Eugenia[/name]
I’m having this exact same problem! My daughters name is [name]Audrey[/name] [name]Claire[/name]. And now we have no idea where to go. We had thought for a while, [name]Meredith[/name] [name]Faye[/name] ([name]Miller[/name]) but realized I was NOT naming my daughter with those initials. I won’t spell it out. We also considered [name]Elodie[/name] [name]Faye[/name]. Which we still like…but aren’t as in love with it as we were before. Now we (okay I am) are leaning towards [name]Evelyn[/name] [name]Grace[/name]. I’m so topsy turvy! If the baby is a boy, [name]James[/name] Grissom or something along those lines. Boys are so easy!!
I used to know a set of twins named [name]Audrey[/name] & [name]Joshua[/name], with little sister [name]Eden[/name]. [name]Audrey[/name] & [name]Eden[/name] always seemed a great sibset to me, but [name]Joshua[/name] just did not seem to fit quite so well [name]IMO[/name].
I do adore [name]Audrey[/name] & [name]Edith[/name] OR [name]Audrey[/name] & [name]Eden[/name], though!!
I love [name]Veronica[/name], and do think it’s old-hollywood, a la [name]Audrey[/name], but at the same time, I can see how you don’t like the pairing.
