OMG we need help for name 6th kid (greek-minded)

Hello,

We have still some time untill our new baby-girl will see the world, but … it is a hard search this time. We already have four children and one angel (stillborn). Our kids all have Greek names (or related to Greek myth).
So now this one has got to be also a name in the same line. The names are very unusual, so please don’t write them down in the normal way (we have some very curious relatives/friends).
this are the names of our kids:
X.@nth€ (girl)
C.¥b€l€ (girl)
C.@llist€ (girl)
C.@ssiël (boy)
Q.u1nth€ (girl)

We like to give her a name with a S or Z-sound in the beginning, and related more or less to the Greek myth. We do not have a special reason why we have chosen for this kind of names, it just happened. We would also like it if there is also some relation with the figure 6.

At the moment we did not have any idea of a name. We have no prefers at this moment. The other times we have had very useful input of this forum, so we hope to get some good ideas to start with getting the right name.

So If there are creatives among you, we hope you give us new idea’s or food for thought. And please use the writings as I have used above.
Thank you very much,

Oetel

One of my favourite names (Greek or otherwise) is [name_f]Ismene[/name_f]! I could see it working with your children’s names (if I understand correctly what they are). I also love Psamathe. I don’t know a lot of Greek names, especially any as obscure as I think you’re going for. If there are any you have in mind we’d be happy to give you feedback.

I’ve really been loving the name [name_f]Phaedra[/name_f] lately. DH vetoed it saying it sounds “too Greek” with our very [name_m]German[/name_m] last name. I think it would go lovely with your other kids’ names. [name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps!

I’m thinking “too Greek” won’t be an issue for you. :wink: Here are some names that all have history:

Xanthippe
Zosime
Theokleia
Syntyche
Ptoleme
Nephthys
Mnemosyne
Khryseis
[name_f]Evgenia[/name_f]
Eupraxia
Euphrosyne

[name_f]Persephone[/name_f]
[name_f]Tessa[/name_f]
[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Petra[/name_f]

sorry for my late answer, I was too busy to be online. I thought I also got mail when there were reactions, but I did not get them unfortunately.
thanks for all your input. 7 years ago we started with the first name and at that moment we have never thought that we will need so many names, haha. I also like phaedra, but my hubbie doesn’t.
Furthermore, we have to look for a new name seriously. only I thought you all are fresh and not blinded. So maybe this is a good startingpoint.

When we have evaluated these names, I will let you know what our first thought is. I live in europe, so we also have a time-problem.

And please do not hesitate to give more names!

thanks again,

[name_f]Adelpha[/name_f] (“beloved sister” - No s or z sound, but I just like that meaning)
[name_f]Zenaida[/name_f]
[name_f]Asta[/name_f]
[name_f]Astraea[/name_f]
[name_f]Zeta[/name_f] (6th letter of the Greek alphabet and the z sound)
Euphrosyne
[name_f]Soraya[/name_f]
[name_f]Thais[/name_f]
[name_f]Thalassa[/name_f]
[name_f]Thisbe[/name_f]

I love your kids’ names. :slight_smile:

[name_f]Hebe[/name_f]
