[name_m]Hi[/name_m], all! A while back, I posted about how my husband and I needed to find a name for our second daughter, baby sis to [name_f]Lisette[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f]. We are completely stuck, but here are some that are ideas:
We’re just not sure because nothing seems quite right. Opinions on these ideas, potential middles, and suggestions are welcome and oh so appreciated! Thanks in advance!!
You’re right none of them seems just right to me either and I don’t know why because they’re all good names. [name_f]Laurel[/name_f] keeps coming to mind, but I don’t know if theme 2 siblings both starting with L would bother you…just a thought
I like [name_f]Julia[/name_f]. [name_m]Both[/name_m] [name_f]Julia[/name_f] and [name_f]Lisette[/name_f] are rich, creamy names that people love to say. Some of the other names on your list seem bland by comparison ([name_f]Clara[/name_f]) or too common ([name_f]Natalie[/name_f]). [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] would be my second choice, but it still is half and half vs. heavy whipping compared to [name_f]Julia[/name_f].
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f] is just lovely! I adore it. I love pretty much your entire list, but I especially love [name_f]Audrey[/name_f], [name_f]Felicity[/name_f], [name_f]Julia[/name_f], [name_f]Clara[/name_f], and [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] with [name_f]Lisette[/name_f]! I think [name_f]Clara[/name_f] and [name_f]Julia[/name_f] are especially darling. [name_f]Lisette[/name_f] and [name_f]Natalie[/name_f] would be sweet, too–my sister’s [name_f]Natalie[/name_f], so I’m extremely biased there. I think it’s a sweet name, I just can’t seem to think of anybody BUT my sister wearing it. I love my sister’s nn, [name_u]Tallie[/name_u], though, and am a huge proponent of there being more Tallies/Tallys/Talies/Talis in the world!
I like [name_f]Maelys[/name_f] and [name_f]Theodora[/name_f] best with [name_f]Lisette[/name_f]. [name_f]Lisette[/name_f] is so uncommon that I think her sister deserves an equally unique name.
The other names on your list are pretty too, but although none of them are extremely popular, they are still more common than [name_f]Lisette[/name_f]. There is nothing wrong with this, but it’s just something to consider. The only name on your list that I would definitely say no to is [name_f]Felicity[/name_f], because [name_f]Lisette[/name_f] and [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] have too many similar sounds in them.
I can tell that you like sweet yet elegant names, so here are some other ideas…
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] & [name_f]Selene[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] & [name_f]Mabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] & [name_f]Isadora[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] & [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] & [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] & [name_f]Odessa[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] & [name_f]Eugenie[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] & [name_f]Elodie[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] & [name_f]Flora[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] & [name_f]Gloria[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] & [name_f]Valentina[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] & [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f]
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] is kind of Exotic Lite, so another name in that vein would be great. [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] and [name_f]Ottilie[/name_f] certainly work. I think [name_f]Maelys[/name_f] might be a bit overlapping with the Lis/[name_f]Lys[/name_f] syllables. A few other ideas:
[name_f]Amabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Appoline[/name_f]
[name_f]Camille[/name_f]
[name_f]Capucine[/name_f]
[name_f]Celine[/name_f]
[name_f]Honora[/name_f]
[name_f]Indra[/name_f]
[name_f]Magdalene[/name_f]
[name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] (love this with [name_f]Lisette[/name_f])
[name_f]Mariel[/name_f] or [name_f]Marielle[/name_f]
[name_f]Mariette[/name_f] or [name_f]Marietta[/name_f]
[name_f]Melisande[/name_f]
[name_f]Mireille[/name_f]
[name_f]Olympia[/name_f]
Petronille
[name_f]Plum[/name_f]
[name_f]Raffaela[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosamund[/name_f]
[name_f]Suzanne[/name_f]
[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f]
[name_f]Vivienne[/name_f]
Thank you, everyone!
Thanks for all of the suggestions, hubby & I love [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] & [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f]/[name_f]Serafina[/name_f]! I think our top 5 right now are [name_f]Elodie[/name_f], [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f], [name_f]Serafina[/name_f], [name_f]Delilah[/name_f], and [name_f]Audrey[/name_f]!
[name_f]Lisette[/name_f] and [name_f]Natalie[/name_f] would be sweet, too–my sister’s [name_f]Natalie[/name_f], so I’m extremely biased there. I think it’s a sweet name, I just can’t seem to think of anybody BUT my sister wearing it.
