Hello! [name_u]New[/name_u] here and needing help with naming #4.
So far we have:
[name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] (Rosie) [name_f]Isla[/name_f]
[name_m]Frederick[/name_m] (Freddy) [name_u]John[/name_u]
[name_u]George[/name_u] [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u]

Needing both boy and girl suggestions, though we already really like [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] for a girl, though not fixed on it yet.

Our kids all have family names in the middle position, but struggling to find another family name we like and can use, so happy to deviate from this tradition (could possibly us [name_f]Valma[/name_f] but not sure how I feel about that).
Surname starts with S and has four syllables ending in an ā€œeeā€ sound.

Would love to hear some suggestions! Thanks

[name_u]Welcome[/name_u]! Your kids have such sweet names :relaxed:

[name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] is very lovely, perhaps a little more fanciful than your other names though? Itā€™s not a bad fit by any means!

[name_f]Rosemary[/name_f], [name_m]Frederick[/name_m], [name_u]George[/name_u] andā€¦

[name_f]Matilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Harriet[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucinda[/name_f]
[name_f]Henrietta[/name_f]
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
[name_f]Constance[/name_f]
[name_f]Dorothea[/name_f]
[name_f]Leonora[/name_f]
[name_f]Ottoline[/name_f]

I love that [name_f]Valma[/name_f] means ā€˜battle heroineā€™, such a strong name! If youā€™re unsure you could go with [name_f]Matilda[/name_f], [name_f]Ottoline[/name_f], [name_f]Ottilie[/name_f], or [name_f]Edith[/name_f] which have similar meanings and are also Germanic.

[name_m]Edmund[/name_m]
[name_u]Arthur[/name_u]
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m]
[name_m]Louis[/name_m]
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m]
[name_u]Henry[/name_u]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m]
[name_m]Albert[/name_m] ā€˜Bertieā€™
[name_u]Leo[/name_u]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_u]August[/name_u]

[name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] is lovely!!

[name_f]Valma[/name_f] has a similar meaning to [name_f]Louisa[/name_f] - so maybe that could be a middle name? [name_u]Or[/name_u] [name_u]Alma[/name_u]?

Thank you! I knew Iā€™d get some great suggestions here! [name_u]Will[/name_u] put together a list for my husband to look at - heā€™s the hard one to please.

Could you use [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] [name_u]Marie[/name_u] or [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] to get to [name_f]Valma[/name_f] (Val-Ma)?

I love [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] (my own daughter) and [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] so I think thatā€™s a flawless choice, too!

Iā€™d normally love a suggestion like this, but unfortunately the name [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] is totally out for us (long backstory!). Definitely the kind of creativity I love in baby-naming though!
