We found out that we’re having a little girl next year and we’re really excited. Big sister’s name is [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Andromeda[/name_f] and we really like the idea of continuing with sky/space themed names. If I’m honest I think it would be great if the whole name had the same amount of syllables as older sis, but if we love a name syllable count can be overlooked. Some names that we’ve talked about but don’t fully love include
[name_f]Juno[/name_f]
[name_u]Vesper[/name_u]
[name_f]Yvaine[/name_f]
[name_f]Ursa[/name_f]
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f]
[name_f]Aurelia[/name_f]
[name_u]Nova[/name_u]
[name_f]Helena[/name_f]
Some names that fit the theme but we really do not like
[name_f]Celeste[/name_f]
[name_f]Esther[/name_f]
[name_f]Astrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Astraea[/name_f]
Ostara
Sorry, I don’t know if that’s enough to go on. I’m really open to any suggestions right now. Thanks for the help in advance!
I really love [name_f]Juno[/name_f] & [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] together!
Some more, space-themed suggestions…
[name_f]Adhara[/name_f] - One of the brightest stars in the sky
[name_f]Alula[/name_f] - A double star (Also a palindrome name!)
[name_f]Aisha[/name_f] - [name_f]Moon[/name_f] goddess
Azurine - “[name_u]Sky[/name_u]-blue”
[name_f]Araceli[/name_f] - “[name_m]Alter[/name_m] of the [name_u]Sky[/name_u]” in Spanish
[name_f]Astra[/name_f] - Latin, meaning “Of the Stars” Might be too similar to the names you don’t like it but thought I’d add it anyway since it fits.
[name_f]Bianca[/name_f] - An inner moon of Uranus
[name_f]Luna[/name_f] - [name_f]Moon[/name_f]
Evaluna - Life, moon.
[name_f]Nashira[/name_f] - A star in Capricorn
[name_f]Aster[/name_f] - “star” In Greek. Same comment as [name_f]Astra[/name_f] though.
[name_f]Danica[/name_f] - “morning star” in Slavic
[name_f]Calista[/name_f] - “constellation” in Greek
[name_f]Cressida[/name_f] - another moon of Uranus
[name_f]Hesper[/name_f] - [name_f]Evening[/name_f] star
[name_f]Lunetta[/name_f] - “little moon”
[name_f]Neoma[/name_f] - [name_u]New[/name_u] moon
Love [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] [name_f]Andromeda[/name_f]!
Some other star names I like that might fight:
Carina - a constellation
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] - a star in corona borealis
[name_f]Lyra[/name_f] - a constellation
[name_f]Maia[/name_f] - a star in [name_m]Taurus[/name_m]
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] - a star in Cetus
And some combos I like using these names and other suggestions:
@ceryle I didn’t know [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] was a star name! Plus it being part of the [name_f]Corona[/name_f] Borealis is kind of a fun play on the time which she’s being born in.
@DaisyLou115 Yes! The star is also called Alphecca, but it’s been traditionally known as [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] because it’s the brightest star in [name_f]Corona[/name_f] (“the crown”). The symbolism there is on point!
