Good morning Nameberries. I have decided on the family name Claire for my little one if it is a girl so now I’m on the hunt for a fun, preferably nature themed (but doesn’t have to be!) middle name to spunk it up a bit. Just looking to make Claire not look so dated.
Here are a few we like so far… please let me know which ones you like the best. Last name is Hayden.
Thanks!
[name_f]Do[/name_f] we all have a favorite from the list I originally shared? I’d love to know!
From the ones you’ve shared i love [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f], [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Avalon[/name_f] and [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f].
From your list I love [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]River[/name_u]! Most of the others I think make [name_f]Claire[/name_f] actually sound more dated, especially [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], [name_f]Adeline[/name_f], [name_f]Autumn[/name_f], [name_u]Hazel[/name_u], and [name_f]Violet[/name_f]. [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] is fun and modern but I just personally don’t like it, but that’s just my opinion!
Some other options could be (take any repeats as me seconding it):
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Aspen[/name_u]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Acacia[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Harbor[/name_u]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Harvest[/name_u]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Hudson[/name_u]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Lark[/name_u]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Moon[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Ocean[/name_u]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Sage[/name_u]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_m]Tide[/name_m]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Dove[/name_u]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_m]Fletcher[/name_m]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Meadow[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Minnow[/name_u]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Peach[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Savannah[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Sky[/name_u] (or Skyler)
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Snow[/name_u]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Star[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Willow[/name_u]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Winter[/name_u]
I love [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]River[/name_u], [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Meadow[/name_f], and [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Willow[/name_u]! I’m just not sure if [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]River[/name_u] has too many R sounds, so maybe one of the other two work better for me?
I just don’t want it to sound weird when saying the two names together. Which do you prefer with last name [name_u]Hayden[/name_u]?
A few more I found online:
[name_u]Love[/name_u] Claire!!!
[name_f]My[/name_f] favorites are [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Summer[/name_f] and [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Meadow[/name_f]. So warm
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] is my favourite! It definitely sounds playful and fresh, not dated. I also like [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Willow[/name_u] and [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Juno[/name_f]. I think the o endings update [name_f]Claire[/name_f] really well, as well as being great names in other ways
[name_m]Hi[/name_m], my favorite combos that I think flow best and sound best with your last name are:
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Willow[/name_u]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Juno[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Capri[/name_f]
You have so many nice combos and great suggestions but those are my favorites!
