so, seeing our little one at our anatomy scan brought so many[name_f][/name_f] emotions— relief, overwhelming joy, and so much love. it also helped us decide on a “vibe” we feel this little one has, and some names that we feel fit them.
[name_f][/name_f]
if baby is a boy, he will be either shepherd hayes or judah wilder.
[name_f][/name_f]
now, if baby is a girl, we have a few options flowing around in our heads. my husband loves eden and valley, i love shiloh and revelry, and we both love magnolia and luella, but we’d love to get a little more input, and combination ideas as well.
[name_f][/name_f]
i think what we’re looking for lies somewhere in hippie cowgirl territory— think sedona, arizona, turquoise jewelry, and the band first aid kit.
[name_f][/name_f]
thank you, friends, and we can’t wait to see what you come up with!
[name_f]Athena[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- fits into “hippie cowgirl” style, gives you tomboy (nn [name_f]Atty[/name_f], [name_f]Thea[/name_f], Nina), but also has length, history and elegance.
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]Faye[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- short, spunky, still somehow ethereal. [name_f]Love[/name_f] this one for you!
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]Ember[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- this is another ethereal but modern/tomboyish name that seems to suit both of your styles. [name_f]Ember[/name_f] [name_f]Luella[/name_f]?
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- Feels in line with [name_f]Luella[/name_f] and [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]. [name_f]Love[/name_f] the nn potential “Cordy/Coco/Delia”
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]Sienna[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- desert vibes, modern, also willowy and elegant, ticks the boxes!
Congratulations on your successful scan! I’m so curious as to baby’s sex because I am the nosiest person ever.

Some hippie cowgirl names that fit the styles of [name_f]Luella[/name_f], [name_f]Valley[/name_f], Revelry, [name_f]Shiloh[/name_f], and [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]:
(silently super pro [name_m]Judah[/name_m] [name_m]Wilder[/name_m] )
[name_f][/name_f]
But onto the girls! I think [name_f]Valley[/name_f] and [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] probably fit that aesthetic best out of the ones you both already like. I will try my best with hippie cowgirl combos both using your name and not (of course, feel free to mix n’ match)
Hugest congratulations, I’m so happy that the scan went well and your little bundle is developing well bless you guys sending so much love
I love Shepherd Hayes & Judah Wilder such gorgeous names! However I have to say I do adore Shepherd and really associate him with you along @seawillow such a peaceful choice.
Looking at your girls I really loved Lenora still I can honestly say from my own experience those scans really change your outlook on names as you get to know your bundle. I changed my mind and had so many ideas as I went through my journey to motherhood. From the girl names you’ve mentioned both loving I personally love Magnolia!
Magnolia is such a warm, summery, has adorable nicknames of Maggie & Nola which I love, she feels bright with beautiful imagery and definitely feels fitting for a hippie cowgirl
I actually think Magnolia is very you. I really like the idea of Magnolia Shiloh or Magnolia Eden they feel tranquil and joyous.
I think Luella is very sweet with a fun retro feel something like Luella Revelry would be beautiful and I also think Luella Valley sounds melodic. I think Eden Shiloh feels very bohemian and fashion forward.
You’ve had lots of lovely suggestions so count any repeats as me being in agreement with the berries
as always, your suggestions are beautiful. i adore jude as a middle name— and am thinking about shiloh jude, though, wondering if it’s too gender neutral!
[name_f][/name_f]
i also love juniper, bravely, poet, haven, susannah, ada, opal, adella, bliss, wilde, and psalm. and funny story, bliss is the name of the road we found out baby’s sex on!
I love your boy options! They’re honestly perfect [name_f][/name_f]Now for the girls [name_f][/name_f] First, here are my favorite combinations from the names you’re pondering: [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Shiloh[/name_f] [name_f]Valley[/name_f] (Definitely cowgirl! I like the meaning of peace through valleys.) [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Or[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Shiloh[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] (Just as cowgirl with a little more feminine flare!)
[name_f][/name_f]
Your names as 1sts & middles: [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Eden[/name_f] [name_m]Alcott[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Odelia[/name_f] [name_f]Eden[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Valley[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Tallulah[/name_f] [name_f]Valley[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Shiloh[/name_f] [name_f]Zipporah[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Anona[/name_f] [name_f]Shiloh[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]Revelry [name_f]June[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Judea[/name_m] Revelry [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] [name_f]Vale[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Kindred[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Luella[/name_f] [name_f]Winsome[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Kindred[/name_f] [name_f]Luella[/name_f] (I can’t help but use [name_f]Kindred[/name_f] twice lol)
[name_f][/name_f]
As a side note, [name_f]Emmylou[/name_f] by the First Aid [name_m]Kit[/name_m] is one of my favorite songs! Another song that has a similar vibe for me is [name_m]Seneca[/name_m] [name_m]Creek[/name_m] by [name_m]Charles[/name_m] [name_m]Wesley[/name_m] Godwin [name_f][/name_f] Also, I love your imagery. [name_f]My[/name_f] uncle, when he was living, lived in [name_f]Arizona[/name_f] & made turquoise jewelry, among other things
okay… we need to be sharing playlists. this is one of my husband’s and my favorite songs. got us through many tough times when he worked on the road and we were long distance— and it makes me want to call her “ruth” so bad!
[name_f][/name_f]
in addition to this, i am absolutely adoring shiloh valley and shiloh magnolia. the only issue i have with valley, is that i feel that it always sounds like a place when used in a combination— not necessarily a bad thing, but it makes it difficult to pair for me! i absolutely love the meaning of shiloh valley though. gorgeous!
[name_f][/name_f]
i also love valley evangeline, anona shiloh, revelry june, magnolia vale, luella winsome, and kindred luella!

sending so much love
