Nature name for baby #3?

We are having the hardest time finding the perfect name for our daughter and would love your thoughts and suggestions! Ideally we would love to find a few we are madly in love with, and then will make the final decision once we meet her. :slight_smile:

Her older brothers are [name_u]Kai[/name_u] and [name_m]Reef[/name_m] and an ideal name would flow well with their names.
Her middle names (2, as per family tradition) will most likely be [name_f]Viola[/name_f] [name_f]Eve[/name_f] at this point, but flexible depending on first name.

Our short list:

[name_f]Aya[/name_f] [name_f]Viola[/name_f] [name_f]Eve[/name_f]
[name_f]Kalea[/name_f] [name_f]Viola[/name_f] [name_f]Eve[/name_f]

Names we don’t both love equally, or aren’t quite contenders but represent our likes:

[name_u]Haven[/name_u]
[name_f]Sparrow[/name_f]
[name_u]Dove[/name_u]
[name_f]Oceanna[/name_f] (Our sons top choice)
[name_f]Isla[/name_f]
[name_f]Indigo[/name_f] (nn [name_f]Indie[/name_f])
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] (nn [name_u]June[/name_u])

What do you think? Thank you for your help!

[name_u]Wren[/name_u], [name_f]Lark[/name_f], [name_f]Vita[/name_f]

I personally think that [name_f]Kalea[/name_f] and [name_f]Aya[/name_f] (while lovely) are too close to [name_u]Kai[/name_u], but that is obviously up to you, and it might not bother you. [name_f]Oceana[/name_f], [name_f]Sparrow[/name_f] and [name_u]Dove[/name_u] are beautiful choices. [name_m]How[/name_m] about (not all of these are nature names, but hopefully they are on the right track):

[name_u]Ocean[/name_u], [name_u]River[/name_u], [name_f]Bayo[/name_f], [name_u]Bay[/name_u], [name_u]Poe[/name_u] / [name_u]Po[/name_u], [name_f]Marina[/name_f], [name_f]Marine[/name_f], [name_f]Marini[/name_f], [name_f]Saskia[/name_f], [name_f]Waverley[/name_f], [name_f]Layla[/name_f] / [name_f]Leila[/name_f] / [name_f]Laila[/name_f], [name_f]Oceane[/name_f], [name_u]Paz[/name_u], [name_u]Pax[/name_u], [name_f]Rez[/name_f], [name_u]Wren[/name_u], [name_f]Lark[/name_f], [name_f]Lyra[/name_f], [name_u]Calypso[/name_u], [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u], [name_f]Clover[/name_f], [name_u]Prairie[/name_u], [name_f]Pella[/name_f], [name_f]Noa[/name_f], [name_u]Akira[/name_u], [name_u]Akiva[/name_u], [name_f]Tala[/name_f], [name_f]Nahla[/name_f] / [name_f]Nala[/name_f], [name_f]Nara[/name_f], [name_f]Pella[/name_f], [name_f]Maple[/name_f], [name_u]Frost[/name_u], [name_f]Snow[/name_f], [name_u]Teal[/name_u], [name_u]Dune[/name_u], [name_f]Aphra[/name_f], [name_f]Pilar[/name_f], [name_f]Luna[/name_f], [name_f]Fern[/name_f], [name_f]Sen[/name_f], [name_f]Oona[/name_f], [name_f]Ola[/name_f], [name_u]Ballou[/name_u], [name_f]Tupelo[/name_f], [name_f]Aster[/name_f], [name_f]Magenta[/name_f], [name_f]Scarlet[/name_f], [name_f]Dasha[/name_f], [name_f]Cypress[/name_f], [name_f]Sahara[/name_f], [name_f]Sapphire[/name_f], [name_f]Marlo[/name_f], [name_f]Baja[/name_f], [name_u]Aza[/name_u], [name_f]Azalea[/name_f], [name_f]Kerenza[/name_f] / [name_f]Kerensa[/name_f], [name_f]Kezia[/name_f], [name_f]Keturah[/name_f], [name_f]Elara[/name_f], [name_f]Gem[/name_f], [name_f]Bijou[/name_f], [name_m]Indio[/name_m], [name_f]Arizona[/name_f], [name_f]Indre[/name_f], [name_u]Zola[/name_u], [name_f]Zora[/name_f], [name_f]Junia[/name_f], [name_f]Serena[/name_f], [name_f]Topaz[/name_f], [name_f]Venus[/name_f], [name_f]Plum[/name_f], [name_u]Sky[/name_u], [name_f]Thandie[/name_f], [name_f]Cricket[/name_f], [name_f]Peridot[/name_f], [name_m]Bodhi[/name_m], [name_m]Noble[/name_m], [name_f]Acacia[/name_f], [name_u]Canyon[/name_u], [name_u]Cobalt[/name_u], [name_f]Fjord[/name_f], [name_u]Harbor[/name_u] / Harbour, Lazuli, [name_u]Onyx[/name_u], [name_f]Lapis[/name_f], [name_f]Orchid[/name_f], [name_u]Sorrell[/name_u], [name_m]Tide[/name_m], [name_f]Viva[/name_f], [name_u]Vida[/name_u], [name_m]Jupiter[/name_m], [name_u]Mercury[/name_u], [name_f]Amethyst[/name_f], [name_f]Garnet[/name_f], Song, [name_u]Jet[/name_u], [name_u]Mercury[/name_u], [name_u]Silver[/name_u], [name_u]Aspen[/name_u], [name_f]Calla[/name_f], [name_f]Calista[/name_f], [name_f]Delta[/name_f].

Of the two, I prefer [name_f]Aya[/name_f] as [name_f]Kalea[/name_f] seems too similar to [name_u]Kai[/name_u], and leave [name_m]Reef[/name_m] on the outer (though [name_f]Aya[/name_f] is very close to [name_u]Kai[/name_u] too in sound…). [name_f]Oceanna[/name_f] would be fantastic, especially as it is your sons top choice. I also like [name_u]Juniper[/name_u], [name_f]Indigo[/name_f], [name_u]Dove[/name_u] and [name_f]Isla[/name_f].

Some other ideas:
[name_f]Autumn[/name_f]
[name_f]Isaura[/name_f]
[name_f]Adamina[/name_f]
Lupa
[name_f]Ela[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f]
[name_f]Tala[/name_f]
[name_f]Pippa[/name_f]
[name_f]Linnea[/name_f]
[name_f]Aviva[/name_f]
[name_f]Hana[/name_f]
[name_f]Lark[/name_f]
[name_f]Jemima[/name_f]
[name_f]Ayla[/name_f]
[name_f]Willow[/name_f]
[name_f]Zahra[/name_f]
[name_f]Lotus[/name_f]

Going with the ocean/water theme you’ve got going with [name_m]Reef[/name_m] and [name_u]Kai[/name_u]:
[name_f]Maya[/name_f]
[name_f]Naia[/name_f]
[name_f]Maren[/name_f]
[name_f]Riva[/name_f]
[name_u]Bay[/name_u] – One syllable like [name_u]Kai[/name_u] and [name_m]Reef[/name_m] AND water-related…seems pretty fitting to me.
[name_f]Tallulah[/name_f]
[name_f]Mira[/name_f]
Amarina
[name_f]Morgana[/name_f]

I like [name_f]Isla[/name_f] best from your list!

[name_m]How[/name_m] about
[name_f]Orabel[/name_f]/[name_f]Orabelle[/name_f] “Beautiful seacoast”
[name_u]Adria[/name_u] “from the Adriatic Sea”
[name_m]Iara[/name_m] “water lady”
[name_f]Maris[/name_f] “Of the sea”
[name_f]Moana[/name_f] “wide expanse of water”
[name_u]Ren[/name_u] “water lily”
Nimue- a name for The Lady of the [name_u]Lake[/name_u]
[name_f]Brenna[/name_f] “little drop of water”
[name_f]Drusilla[/name_f] “watered with the dew”
[name_f]Ula[/name_f] “Sea jewel”
[name_f]Una[/name_f] “White wave”
[name_f]Coral[/name_f] “coral”
[name_f]Marisol[/name_f] “sunny sea”
[name_f]Ria[/name_f] “river’s mouth”
Gaia
Aura
Cove
Tempest (Tempe)
Beacon (Bea)

I really like Lotus, Isla, or Coral!

Juniper Viola Eve is GORGEOUS!

Sorry for repeats

[name_f]Viola[/name_f] and [name_f]Eve[/name_f] would be great middle names together. [name_f]Oceana[/name_f] would be my favorite from your list, but I don’t know how I feel about it with viola eve. Maybe a flower name would be pretty? Such as [name_f]Heather[/name_f], [name_f]Lotus[/name_f], etcetera.

Sorry for any repeats! I bolded my favourites.
Let us know what you think of our suggestions =)

[name_u]Love[/name_u] your boys’ names. These may be dupes, but I like…

[name_u]Kai[/name_u], [name_m]Reef[/name_m] and:

[name_f]Azalea[/name_f]
[name_f]Coraline[/name_f]
[name_f]Jade[/name_f]
[name_f]Luna[/name_f]
[name_f]Marin[/name_f]
[name_f]Marina[/name_f]
[name_f]Skyla[/name_f]
[name_f]Willa[/name_f]
…[name_f]Viola[/name_f] [name_f]Eve[/name_f]

With your boys’ names and your chosen middle names, I believe that [name_f]Jade[/name_f] [name_f]Viola[/name_f] [name_f]Eve[/name_f] have the best ring to them - good luck!

Also, [name_u]Sage[/name_u] [name_f]Viola[/name_f] [name_f]Eve[/name_f] is nice as well…

[name_f]Isla[/name_f], definitely!

I would suggest [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]. It looks like you’ve got beautiful theme (though not horribly obvious) of names pertaining to the ocean/sea. [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] means ‘daughter of the sea’ and lends some lovely nns (ie [name_f]Cora[/name_f], [name_f]Delia[/name_f], [name_u]Cory[/name_u], [name_f]Cordy[/name_f], [name_f]Dillie[/name_f]). I think it sounds lovely with the mns.
