My fiancé and I are planning to have our first child together in the coming yr and I wanted to reach out for some name ideas that would go with our names and my 5 yr old son. Our names are [name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m], [name_f]Sarah[/name_f], and [name_m]Zachary[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] (first and middle).
What’s mostly your naming style? [name_f]Do[/name_f] u like classics like [name_m]John[/name_m] for the most part or newer edgy names like [name_m]Archer[/name_m]?
Also taste in female names do you like the classics like [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] and [name_f]Jane[/name_f], or do u like modern names like [name_u]Kelsey[/name_u]?
And do u plan on honoring a family member?
Edited for privacy.
I like traditional names and lean toward biblical names because all of our names are from the bible. I like [name_f]Claudia[/name_f] and [name_f]Zipporah[/name_f]. But I also like more modern names like [name_u]Avery[/name_u] and [name_u]Morgan[/name_u]. I worry about finding the right balance of unique but not too out there.
[name_m]Jacob[/name_m] is a nice name as well as [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] and [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]. I find naming a boy much easier for some reason. I really favor [name_m]Asher[/name_m] [name_m]Silas[/name_m] for a boy. Girl names are harder.
[name_m]Zachary[/name_m] and:
[name_m]Jonathan[/name_m], [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m], [name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_f]Abigail[/name_f], [name_f]Rebecca[/name_f], [name_f]Susannah[/name_f]
Okay, I am going to list both Biblical names and then names that are more traditional and/or antique/vintage.
