Sibling names for a girl named eleanor

hi berries,

eleanor has been on my mind for a while now, and recently i have fallen even more in love with the name. i feel like i can safely say i have chosen eleanor over other options with a similar sound (thank you for your thoughts on my eleanor, eloise, or elliott post!).

since i am feeling so excited + settled about eleanor, i am now thinking through options for sibling names.

what names would you suggest for eleanor’s sisters or brothers?

thanks so much xx

clara is lovely!

[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] is so beautiful. :heart_eyes: [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] is my absolute favorite for a sister, no doubt! And for a brother, [name_u]George[/name_u] is my top pick. All of them have a cuddly, earthy, enthusiastic sort of feel to them that I adore. [name_m]Easy[/name_m], classic, charming, and full of inquisitive and endearing heart.

thank you! thank you for these lovely suggestions. josephine and george are names that i wouldn’t have considered on my own. they don’t feel quite my style but it is so interesting to hear that you see that they pair perfectly with eleanor. i’ll have to give them more thought!

you also have henry on this list… I think henry is a great style match to eleanor. however we have a relative with this name so we won’t be able to use it. if not for that reason, i’d say it’s a perfect choice!

I love [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], it’s classic with so many modern nn options. I think it goes with so many other names but here are a few of my favourites.

Fellow [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] aficionado here! :sunflower:

I’ve considered [name_f]Clara[/name_f], [name_f]Olive[/name_f], [name_f]Lucy[/name_f], [name_f]Winifred[/name_f], and [name_f]Rose[/name_f] for a classic pairing, and [name_f]Saskia[/name_f], [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f], and [name_f]Fiona[/name_f] for a more spunky and gorgeous sisterset!

As far as brothers go, [name_m]Oliver[/name_m], [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], [name_u]Henry[/name_u], [name_u]William[/name_u], [name_u]August[/name_u], [name_u]Jasper[/name_u], or [name_m]Simon[/name_m] would work really well! :watermelon:

i love your naming style @emeraldsea … cheers to eleanor!

i think clara is lovely and would love to use it… however i think it’s a bit close to my name (caroline) so i don’t know that i’d choose it.

rose is pretty as well.

oliver and henry are my favorites from the brother list!

august is a pairing that i didn’t expect; i think i like it!
