We are having our 3rd girl and I have just recently lost both of my grandparents that I was very close to. Our first two girls have honor names for both of our parents, and I would love to honor my grandparents with this baby. Their names were [name_f]Frances[/name_f] and [name_m]Frank[/name_m], so I thought it should be easy to find something that would honor both since they’re so similar. I don’t want to just outright use [name_f]Frances[/name_f], my grandma hated it as a full name. I like [name_f]Frannie[/name_f], but I can’t commit to it. Sister’s names are [name_f]Jolie[/name_f] [name_m]Lane[/name_m] and [name_f]Raya[/name_f] [name_f]Breann[/name_f], so I want something that will blend and not a name that sounds completely different to her sisters. [name_f]Any[/name_f] ideas?
i’m so sorry for your losses, how sweet to honor your grandparents with baby’s name! ![]()
i love [name_f]Frankie[/name_f], [name_f]Fern[/name_f], and [name_f]Freya[/name_f] with your other girls’ names, but [name_f]Frannie[/name_f] is very cute too! ![]()
I think [name_f]Frankie[/name_f] would be perfect, it honors both and is so darling with your other girls!
I’m sorry for your losses; it’s so beautiful that they’ll be remembered through your daughter’s name ![]()
I agree with the previous posters with the suggestion of [name_f]Frankie[/name_f], but I’ll also suggest [name_f]Francine[/name_f], [name_f]Francie[/name_f], [name_f]Florence[/name_f], or [name_f]Fenna[/name_f]!
Hmm, maybe [name_f]Francesca[/name_f], for either a first or middle? I feel like that honors both [name_f]Frances[/name_f] and [name_m]Frank[/name_m].
Sorry for your loss ![]()
Some ideas from [name_f]Frances[/name_f] and [name_m]Frank[/name_m]:
[name_f]Effie[/name_f] (as in the letter F, since it’s their initial)
[name_f]Frankie[/name_f] (I think it sounds nice with R and J)
[name_f]Fae[/name_f] / [name_f]Faye[/name_f] (similar letters and same initial)
[name_f]Annika[/name_f] [name_f]Faye[/name_f] (from some of the letters)
[name_f]Francine[/name_f]
[name_f]Fenna[/name_f]
[name_f]Fearne[/name_f] / [name_f]Fern[/name_f] (similar letters)
[name_f]Francine[/name_f]
[name_f]Francoise[/name_f]
[name_f]Francia[/name_f]
[name_f]Franca[/name_f]
I also love [name_f]Frankie[/name_f]
With J0lie L@ne and R@ya Bre@nn, my choice would be something like….
[name_f]Fiona[/name_f] [name_f]Frances[/name_f]
[name_f]Fiona[/name_f] [name_f]Francie[/name_f].
[name_f]Fiona[/name_f] [name_f]Francine[/name_f]
[name_f]Fiona[/name_f] [name_f]Francesca[/name_f]
J0lie, R@ya and…..
[name_f]Fiona[/name_f], [name_f]Fifi[/name_f], [name_f]Frankie[/name_f], [name_f]Franki[/name_f], [name_f]Francie[/name_f] or [name_m]Fee[/name_m]
[name_f]Francesca[/name_f].
I would do [name_f]Frankie[/name_f] as a first or middle name. [name_m]Lane[/name_m] is androgynous, so it doesn’t feel mismatched to me.
Came here to say this! It goes really nicely with your other girls as well - J0lie, R@ya, and Eff!e ![]()
Also love the idea of [name_f]Frankie[/name_f] in the middle spot.
