Our last name is [name_m]Hill[/name_m], and lately I’ve really been liking the name [name_u]Aspen[/name_u]. Is “[name_u]Aspen[/name_u] [name_m]Hill[/name_m]” too many nature names paired together? What about a name like [name_u]Waverly[/name_u], which also has to do with aspen trees? [name_f]IMO[/name_f], “[name_u]Waverly[/name_u]” is a little more removed from the definite nature list and may sound better with our surname, but I need some advice.
Which nature names sound best with the last name [name_m]Hill[/name_m]? Should I just forget them altogether?
I kind of like [name_u]Aspen[/name_u] [name_m]Hill[/name_m]. I’m not sure if you have a middle picked out, but I immediately thought of [name_u]Aspen[/name_u] [name_f]Gloria[/name_f]. I actually don’t like the flow of [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_m]Hill[/name_m]. [name_u]Aspen[/name_u] sounds better with your surname imo.
I adore [name_u]Aspen[/name_u] [name_m]Hill[/name_m]! The flow is great and the uncommon/unusualness of [name_u]Aspen[/name_u] really sounds great with the more simple [name_m]Hill[/name_m]. Have you thought about middle names? I think something with two syllables would flow great!
I strongly recommend you take the time to google all the names you come up with. There is a good chance you’re going to come up with real locations. Make sure they don’t have any negative associations.
Believe me, I Google these names over and over again, and then some. You’re probably referencing the negative association with [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_m]Hill[/name_m]. Those associations are why I’m discouraged from using a LOT of names. First we started with [name_f]Rose[/name_f], because that name is super special to us, but there are so many [name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_m]Hill[/name_m] neighborhoods, streets, and sometimes even cemeteries… It’s a real bummer.
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u] is one of my [name_m]FAVORITE[/name_m] baby names. To be honest, if it was my name and I googled [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_m]Hill[/name_m] as a teenager and found it to be a haunted sanatorium, I would think, “cool!” As long as you don’t live in Kentucky or plan on moving to Kentucky, I think you’ll be fine.
It’s much better than being named [name_f]Miley[/name_f] after [name_f]Miley[/name_f] [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m], which was in fact trendy a few years ago.
So go with [name_u]Waverly[/name_u]!
[name_u]Aspen[/name_u] makes me think of the ski resort, and so it sounds more uppity to me.
I really like [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_m]Hill[/name_m]. Since you loved [name_f]Rose[/name_f], what about
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] [name_m]Hill[/name_m]
[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] [name_m]Hill[/name_m]
[name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] [name_m]Hill[/name_m]
[name_f]Rosetta[/name_f] [name_m]Hill[/name_m]
Those associations are why I’m discouraged from using a LOT of names. First we started with [name_f]Rose[/name_f], because that name is super special to us, but there are so many [name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_m]Hill[/name_m] neighborhoods, streets, and sometimes even cemeteries… It’s a real bummer.
