Names that go with Zadie

Our daughter is [name_f]Zadie[/name_f] [name_f]Jayne[/name_f] and we’re looking for a name for the sibling, not finding out the gender so recommendations for both :slight_smile: We like names that are unique/not common, but easy to spell and pronounce…husband doesn’t like anything too out there. Last name is [name_m]Shanahan[/name_m] so can’t clash too much with that (for example, I liked [name_f]Sinead[/name_f], but that would be a mouthful).

So far we have a couple we both are okay on but don’t love anything yet. For a boy we’re back and forth on [name_m]Xander[/name_m], is that too much with Zadie??

[name_f]Zadie[/name_f] and [name_m]Xander[/name_m] would have quite a strong theme with those comparatively unusual and striking Z sounds. [name_m]Xander[/name_m] is a great name though, I don’t think you should discount it!

[name_m]Xander[/name_m] (or Zander) was my first thought. I like [name_f]Zadie[/name_f] and Xander/Zander!

[name_f]My[/name_f] first thought for a girl was [name_f]Zadie[/name_f] and [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f].

[name_m]Xander[/name_m] is fantastic too and I don’t think it’s too much with [name_f]Zadie[/name_f], although if you’re planning on having a third child then I’d probably steer away from using two Z- sounding names together.

[name_m]Xander[/name_m] works with [name_f]Zadie[/name_f] and makes for a nice pair. As others have said it might be starting a theme, something to consider if you plan on more. Not that you need a name that starts with a zed sound, but it might be challenging to find a third name that fits.

Some suggestions:

[name_f]Viola[/name_f]
[name_f]Avalon[/name_f]

Zadie Jayne is delightful :dizzy:

Regarding boys I think Xander is a punchy choice with Zadie as it does pigeonhole you into a strong letter theme it’s tricky as Xander is gorgeous. You could go with Sander? I think Sander is lovely very similar to Xander of course but takes away the strong letter issue.

However is Sander isn’t for you here are some other ideas. Of course You’ve had some lovely suggestions so please count any repeats as me being in agreement with the berries

Zadie and…

Soren
Rafferty
Lachlan
Ari
Tristan
Hartford
Axel ~ may have same issue as Xander but I love Zadie
Atlas
Aries
Winston
Noble
Dorian
Malachi
Enoch
Orion
Pascal
Raphael
Abram

Sinead feels very unexpected and I would really pair with Zadie however I think she does work just feels very eclectic!

Zadie and…

Aisling
Seren
Carmen
Dolores
Loretta
Carys

Tamsin
