So I have a daughter, [name]Emeline[/name] [name]Teresa[/name] and I just found out that we are expecting #2 in [name]January[/name]! With an uber picky husband its never to early to start brainstorming, right?! (:
So basically the only criteria for girls is that we are not really into frilly spellings… which is why we chose one m instead of two in [name]Emeline[/name]. MN will most likely be [name]Frances[/name]. My initial choice was [name]Isobel[/name]/[name]Isabel[/name] but its SO popular and I’m kind of turned off by that but my mom loves it.
For boys… No real criteria but my husband is a total pill on the boy names which leaves me totally stumped. No idea on middles but it could be [name]Joseph[/name], [name]Philip[/name] or [name]Francis[/name].
I am really kind of picky about them being similar in taste. Help!
I’ll take a crack at this challenge–just tell me if I am way off base.
First, as has already been discussed on here; [name]Isobel[/name] is not in the top 1000, but is practically the same as other [name]Izzy[/name] names. Totally cute, but totally popular.
[name]Adelle[/name]/[name]Adele[/name] [name]Frances[/name] - [name]Love[/name] it but DD has a cousin one month older named [name]Adelaide[/name].
[name]Cora[/name] [name]Frances[/name] - I feel like [name]Cora[/name] is too short?
[name]Henriette[/name] [name]Frances[/name] - I like but my husband would laugh
[name]Louise[/name] [name]Frances[/name] - Possibility
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Frances[/name] - [name]Love[/name] it.
Boys
[name]Reginald[/name] [name]James[/name] - [name]Reginald[/name] is my hubby’s grandfathers name.
[name]Maxwell[/name] [name]Francis[/name] - My fave name but another little one is [name]Jax[/name] in our family.
[name]Graham[/name] - Like it.
[name]Gilbert[/name] - No go on the hubby…
[name]Archer[/name] - <3
[name]Abbott[/name] - Never thought of it, good one.
You are def on the right track, thanks! I love [name]Frances[/name] as a first name. I tried for [name]Frances[/name] the first time but lost. Maybe I can win now. I wanted [name]Frances[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]!
[name]Flora[/name] and [name]Sylvia[/name] are also family names on my father’s side
