Hello nameberries,
I desperately need suggestions for our boy/girl twins arriving in 10 days or less!
We already have son [name_u]Henry[/name_u] 4, and daughter [name_f]Bonnie[/name_f] 2. I suppose we seem to like more old-fashioned/traditional/warm names, and don’t like names that are too unusual or ‘made up’.
[name_f]My[/name_f] husband is [name_u]French[/name_u] and only speaks to our children in [name_u]French[/name_u] so the names have to be able to be said in French/with a french accent without sounding completely ridiculous haha. I also have an [name_u]Irish[/name_u] background and love those sorts of names, but [name_u]Irish[/name_u] and [name_u]French[/name_u] don’t seem to work out most of the time!!
For girls so far we like names like [name_u]Ruby[/name_u], [name_f]Margot[/name_f], [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], [name_f]Lucie[/name_f]- we think we might choose one of these? But also very happy for more suggestions.
But for boys we are totally lost. We like the names [name_u]James[/name_u] and [name_u]Jack[/name_u] but our last name is one syllable beginning with G and we feel the names sound a little harsh with it. They also don’t have that magic ‘ah that’s the name’ feeling for us.
[name_u]Henry[/name_u] and [name_f]Bonnie[/name_f] is such a lovely sibset! All your girl names flow lovey with them, though my favourite is probably [name_f]Lucie[/name_f]. And I have no issues with [name_u]James[/name_u] and [name_u]Jack[/name_u] either.
Margot & Arthur
Eleanor & Theo
Lucie & Freddie
August & Flora
Leo & Sylvie
Oscar & Fleur
Rosalie & Charlie
Valerie & Alfie
Eliza & Claude
Violet & Hugo
Lisette & Albert
Mix and match as you like!
I’m not as keen on Ruby (it’s a fave on here but a little too cute for me) - it could be paired with the boys’ above. I intentionally paired Lucie and the other “ie” names with “ie” boys as I think you might as well go all four “ie” / “y” if you’re doing three - but possibly not if these aren’t your last two kids.
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] and [name_f]Lucie[/name_f] are lovely!
[name_u]Alba[/name_u], [name_f]Alice[/name_f], [name_f]Clara[/name_f], [name_u]Zoe[/name_u], [name_f]Elsie[/name_f] and [name_f]Flora[/name_f] came to mind
For boys, [name_u]Max[/name_u], [name_m]Louis[/name_m], [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], [name_m]Ruben[/name_m], [name_u]Toby[/name_u], [name_m]Felix[/name_m], Max/Maxwell and [name_u]Arthur[/name_u]?
What about [name_m]Luke[/name_m] or [name_m]Luc[/name_m] for the boy? That seems very similar to the names you mentioned, but not overused
I am still thinking NM
[name_m]Benoit[/name_m] and [name_f]Margot[/name_f]
[name_u]Julien[/name_u] and [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]
[name_u]Remy[/name_u] and [name_f]Lucie[/name_f] (my favorite)
[name_u]Leo[/name_u] and [name_f]Chloe[/name_f]
Congratulations! I think [name_u]Ruby[/name_u] or [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] fit beautifully with your other kid’s names.
