I guess this post should really be in the sibling forum but I’ve noticed not many people visit there so I thought I might have more luck here!!
I have just given birth to my first daughter and am grateful to all berries who offered their thoughts on naming our little girl…after months of indecision we settled on [name]Matilda[/name] [name]Valentine[/name]…a name we both love, suits her perfectly and has special ties to her personal story! We are now planning number 2 (yet to be concieved) and it has got me thinking that the name of our next child will really define the sibset…we are really hoping to have a few…and sibset could go several ways at the moment as my taste is eclectic… names to compliment each other which is why I’m asking berries for help!! [name]Matilda[/name] is germanic and unoffically australian…and [name]Valentine[/name] is latin. I guess both are vintage and have a spunky, whimsical feel to me particularly when paired together
Of other girls names names i like I guess many could be classed as vintage and spunky
[name]Clementine[/name], [name]Pearl[/name], [name]Olive[/name], [name]Lucy[/name] (as well as [name]Lucia[/name], love lulu as a nn) [name]Juliet[/name] and [name]Clover[/name]
some from mythology
I also love: [name]Aurora[/name], [name]Clio[/name], [name]Luna[/name], [name]Juno[/name]
and then there’s a few random: [name]Tallulah[/name] and [name]Anouk[/name]
some combos I love just for example are
[name]Clementine[/name] [name]Pearl[/name]
[name]Juno[/name] [name]Clementine[/name]
[name]Luna[/name] [name]Pearl[/name]
Clover Noelle
Boys names I like differ in the sense that I like many Gaelic names
[name]Tristan[/name], [name]Declan[/name], [name]Finn[/name], [name]Oscar[/name], [name]Gulliver[/name] and [name]Sullivan[/name] (van)
As well as [name]Cato[/name] (latin), [name]Boone[/name] (french…am massively crushing on [name]Boone[/name]!!!)
And as middle names…Tasman (Australian) [name]Roscoe[/name] (Norse), [name]Caspian[/name], [name]Phoenix[/name], [name]Wolfgang[/name] Atlas
Some combos I like
[name]Finn[/name] Tasman, [name]Cato[/name] [name]Wolfgang[/name], [name]Boone[/name] [name]Phoenix[/name], [name]Cato[/name] [name]Boone[/name], [name]Declan[/name] [name]Roscoe[/name]
My problem is that creating a sibset with some kind of common tie when i have such eclectic taste is hard!!!
I’m wonderng if you were to pick 2 brothers and 2 sisters to go with [name]Matilda[/name] [name]Valentine[/name] using a combination of at least one of the names above… what would you choose?? We have Celtic and Australian roots if that helps!! Thanks
