Norah and Oscar will have a brother or sister in October. We’re all very excited but totally lost when it comes to names. Hubby’s family is Germam so the name has to work in both English and German.
I’ve got a few I like but my DH has a weird story for each of them
I looked at some of the top names in [name_u]Germany[/name_u] right now for some suggestions! I love [name_f]Norah[/name_f] and Oscar!!
Girls (I tried to get shorter names, most ending in A as that is what it looks like your style is!)
[name_f]Alina[/name_f]
[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Ida[/name_f] (if he has a weird story for [name_f]Ada[/name_f] he might like this instead!)
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f]
[name_f]Juna[/name_f]
[name_f]Mira[/name_f]
[name_f]Elisa[/name_f]
[name_f]Tilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Mara[/name_f] (instead of Cara!)
Ellla
[name_f]Lara[/name_f]
[name_f]Lotta[/name_f]

[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_m]Jonas[/name_m]
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] (Very similar to Casper)
[name_m]Victor[/name_m] (sort of like [name_m]Vincent[/name_m] & [name_m]Hector[/name_m] combined!)
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m] (has vin sound like Vincent!)
[name_u]Finn[/name_u] (Finn rhymes with [name_m]Vin[/name_m] the beginning of Vincent!)
I love [name_m]Vincent[/name_m] , [name_f]Ada[/name_f] [name_f]Edda[/name_f], [name_f]Rosa[/name_f], [name_f]Cara[/name_f]
I will recommend an M or P name
[name_f]Mathilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Marla[/name_f]
Mandell
[name_f]Minna[/name_f]
[name_f]Milla[/name_f]
[name_f]Porsche[/name_f]
[name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f]Thea[/name_f] -when I took German in school, we all got given a German “name” and this was mine
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f]
[name_f]Mila[/name_f]
[name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_f]Greta[/name_f]
[name_f]Lena[/name_f]
[name_f]Mathilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Marlene[/name_f]
[name_f]Mina[/name_f]
Hubby is warming to [name_f]Ida[/name_f] (pronounced Ee-da), and I sneaked [name_f]Mia[/name_f], [name_f]Mila[/name_f], [name_f]Lina[/name_f] onto the list of girls names. He suggested [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] which I’m not too keen on. I also like [name_f]Tilda[/name_f] but my sister’s oldest is called Mathilda…
DH suggested [name_m]Eric[/name_m] for a boy which I’m very slowly warming to. He also wanted to add [name_m]Conrad[/name_m] which was a firm NO from me. From your suggestions, I like [name_m]Jacob[/name_m], [name_m]Henry[/name_m], [name_m]Leo[/name_m] and Lucas…and so far DH hasn’t come up with a story about those
[name_f]My[/name_f] favourites of the names on your list are [name_f]Ada[/name_f] or [name_f]Rosa[/name_f] for a girl and [name_m]Vincent[/name_m] for a boy.
