We have developed a list of possible names (girl or boy) that we want to go with our son’s name [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m], nn Bash or [name_m]Bastian[/name_m]. We want a name that is strong but with a good nn as well. We like to work with family/meaningful names so at least one of the names holds meaning to us, but are open to any other names you think would sound good with our son’s name. Last name starts with W. Which of these do you love, hate, would switch around etc?
Boy
[name_m]Roman[/name_m] [name_m]Victor[/name_m] – nn [name_m]Rome[/name_m]
[name_m]Roman[/name_m] [name_m]Emilio[/name_m]
Thorston [name_m]Victor[/name_m] --nn [name_m]Thor[/name_m]
[name_m]Emilio[/name_m] [name_m]Victor[/name_m] – nn [name_m]Lio[/name_m]
[name_m]Marlon[/name_m] [name_m]Victor[/name_m] – nn [name_u]Mars[/name_u]
[name_m]Laszlo[/name_m] [name_m]Victor[/name_m] – nn Laz
[name_m]Victor[/name_m] is great grandpa, [name_m]Roman[/name_m] references [name_m]Rome[/name_m] where we got engaged
Girls
[name_f]Rosemund[/name_f] [name_f]Victoria[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosemund[/name_f] [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] – nn [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_f]Leonora[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] – nn [name_f]Leona[/name_f]
Giorgiana [name_f]Rose[/name_f] – nn [name_f]Gigi[/name_f], [name_f]Ana[/name_f]
[name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] – nn [name_f]Mia[/name_f]
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] – nn [name_f]Cora[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosemund[/name_f] great great grandma and grandma middle name [name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_f]Victoria[/name_f] referencing [name_m]Victor[/name_m], [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] a floral name to reference [name_f]Rosemund[/name_f]
From your list, I like [name_m]Emilio[/name_m] [name_m]Victor[/name_m] or [name_m]Laszlo[/name_m] [name_m]Victor[/name_m] and [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] or [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] or [name_f]Rosemund[/name_f] [name_f]Victoria[/name_f] best with [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]. [name_m]Roman[/name_m] and [name_m]Thurston[/name_m] are too similar and [name_m]Marlon[/name_m] doesn’t seem as classic as [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]. From the boy names though, I really like [name_m]Victor[/name_m] best as a brother for [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]-- it sounds different but is still a classic. What about [name_m]Victor[/name_m] [name_m]Laszlo[/name_m] or [name_m]Victor[/name_m] [name_m]Marlon[/name_m]? From the girl names, Giorgiana and [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] seem more cute-sy or frilly than needed next to [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] so that’s why they didn’t make my favorites. [name_f]Victoria[/name_f] would be a great fn with [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m].
I like [name_m]Emilio[/name_m] [name_m]Victor[/name_m] (love [name_m]Emilio[/name_m]!!) and [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] best. I love the nn [name_f]Leona[/name_f]! I also like [name_m]Emil[/name_m] as a nn for [name_m]Emilio[/name_m]. Such great names and I think they go well with [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m]!
For boys, I definitely think [name_m]Emilio[/name_m] and [name_m]Laszlo[/name_m] are the stand-outs. I honestly can’t pick between them. [name_m]Victor[/name_m] sounds great with both.
For girls, I like [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] and [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] edges ahead just ever so slightly, but that’s only personal preference.
If you had twins, I’d choose [name_m]Laszlo[/name_m] and [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f].
If [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] had been a girl [name_f]Victoria[/name_f] was the pick, but then people started saying [name_f]Vicky[/name_f] and [name_f]Tory[/name_f] and I cringed. So we put it straight to the mn list.
Hubby would love [name_m]Victor[/name_m] for the first name, but I hate the nn [name_u]Vic[/name_u] and just not sold.
I’m fingers crossed for a girl and [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is my top pick, just have to get hubby on board. Where we live in the US and it’s not ever heard and he’s worried about people mispronouncing🙄 Meanwhile, in [name_f]Italy[/name_f] I know 3 Leonoras😅
Second pick and hubby’s first is [name_f]Rosemund[/name_f] [name_f]Victoria[/name_f].
We didn’t decide on [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m] until the day he was born. Was going to be [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_u]August[/name_u] (after my great Gpa) but surprised hubby with [name_m]David[/name_m].
