I’ve just learned we’re having another GIRL! I’m so thrilled as I just love girl names so now the real name hunt begins! Here are my current front runners:
I also love the names [name_f]Emily[/name_f] and [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] but am not keen on [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]. A good friend just named her baby [name_f]Emilia[/name_f]. I like [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] but my husband does not. Our last name is similar to “[name_u]Monroe[/name_u]” so a name like [name_f]Margot[/name_f] or even [name_f]Emma[/name_f] would be too heavy on the M and O sounds. DD1’s name is [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f].
There are also many other nicknames for [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] to help you avoid [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]:
[name_f]Lizzie[/name_f]
[name_f]Libby[/name_f]
[name_f]Betsy[/name_f]
[name_f]Betty[/name_f]
[name_f]Beth[/name_f]
[name_f]Elsie[/name_f]
[name_f]Zibby[/name_f]
[name_f]Ellie[/name_f]
[name_f]Bessie[/name_f]
[name_f]Buffy[/name_f]
[name_f]Lily[/name_f]
[name_f]Lia[/name_f]
[name_f]Tibby[/name_f]
[name_f]Tetty[/name_f]
[name_f]Liesel[/name_f]
[name_f]Zella[/name_f]
[name_f]Birdie[/name_f]
[name_u]Billie[/name_u]
[name_f]Tess[/name_f]
[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Bee[/name_f]
[name_f]Etta[/name_f]
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f]
[name_f]Lettie[/name_f]
[name_u]Izzy[/name_u]
[name_f]Bizzy[/name_f]
[name_f]Zizi[/name_f]
[name_f]Lizbeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Babs[/name_f]
I love the name [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] independent of it’s popularity and think [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] and [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] are beautiful. I would also really like to see [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] making a bit of a comeback as a first name and I think that vintage/grandma names are back and would love to hear of a little [name_f]Betty[/name_f], [name_f]Betsy[/name_f] or even a younger [name_f]Liz[/name_f]. You can’t go wrong with the classics!
They are all beautiful options, but I think [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] is my favorite.
I also really like [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f] and [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]. And [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is also a great first name.
I have always loved the name [name_f]Emily[/name_f] so I think [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] is especially wonderful! Other names I like as a sister to [name_f]Audrey[/name_f]:
[name_f]Ellen[/name_f]
[name_f]Ella[/name_f]
[name_f]Celia[/name_f] or [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]
[name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Bridget[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] is beautiful and regal! I’m a big fan. Are you worried at all about [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]'s popularity?
Already some great suggestions and advice.
I really really like [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] - so smart!
I like [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] but I actually think another middle name would flow better as it’s quite tricky to go from —et to —el. Maybe [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f], [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] or [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f].
Other first names to go with [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] - besides [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] nn [name_f]Beth[/name_f], [name_f]Lily[/name_f], [name_f]Betty[/name_f] or [name_f]Tabby[/name_f] etc:
I think [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] is lovely, but the popularity of [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] would give me pause, as would the popularity of [name_f]Emily[/name_f]. So, from your list, I’d choose [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f].
I obviously love [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] as a first name, and it’s the only name I haven’t heard on another little one in my area. We’ve met several children named [name_m]Charles[/name_m] and [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], but no [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]!
[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] or [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f] with [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]!
First name that came to mind was [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f]
While I like [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] and I think your combos for it are great, I’d probably go with another fn with [name_f]Audrey[/name_f]. While I like [name_f]Emily[/name_f], I don’t like the 2 E-sounding endings for sibs, so I’d go with [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] from your list. What about [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] as a fn?
so now the real name hunt begins! Here are my current front runners:
[name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is also lovely.
