I was certain that I was expecting a second baby boy (I felt it in my soul and would constantly dream of him) but it turns out that I’m having a girl! Which is great and exciting of course but I need help with names. [name_u]Ever[/name_u] since my first pregnancy my husband and I have referred to our potential female child as “Phoebe” (we have a slight emotion connection to the name) but now that I could possibly actually have a [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] in the spring I’m not sure if it is the name. It’s become slightly popular in recent years and I’m not sure how I feel about that. Any suggestions for a sister’s name to go with big brother [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] (it is a small age gap - 20 months) or any advocates for [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]?
Congrats on baby girl!
I think [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] & [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] strike a similar vibe for me. I don’t like the name [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] for personal reasons but think it could fit here.
Others I would pair with [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] that are slightly less popular (out of the US top 300 since she was #214 last year)
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] & [name_u]Sasha[/name_u]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] & [name_f]Ivette[/name_f]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] & [name_f]Lyra[/name_f]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] & [name_f]Minerva[/name_f] “Minnie” (I like this one for the meaning connection!) [name_f]Minerva[/name_f] [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] isn’t bad either!
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] & [name_f]Johanna[/name_f]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] & [name_f]Georgianna[/name_f] “Georgia/Gia/Anna”
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] & [name_u]Joan[/name_u] (this strikes the same vibe as [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] with [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] IMO)
I think [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] is great and makes a lovely sister for [name_m]Hugo[/name_m]! However, if it doesn’t feel like “the one”, I think it’s worth seeing if you find something else that clicks!
Maybe you would like…
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] and [name_f]Daphne[/name_f]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] and [name_f]Matilda[/name_f]

[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] and [name_f]Maia[/name_f]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] and [name_f]Thisbe[/name_f]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] and [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] are perfect together! [name_f]My[/name_f] first thought was [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] but that’s probably even more popular.
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] and…
[name_u]Simone[/name_u]
[name_f]Ramona[/name_f]

A baby girl💖 This is amazing, congratulations!!
When I read your post I immediately thought of [name_f]Victoria[/name_f].
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] and [name_f]Victoria[/name_f] sounds just perfect to me.
I don’t think [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] is an ugly name, it is ok. However I don’t really like [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] and [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] together…
