Sister for Lonan

Girl Names
1

I am expecting a baby in [name_u]August[/name_u] and we have no names picked out. We have names we like but do not agree on anything. i’ve been lurking the forum and the lists on here for inspiration, this site has been a great help in brainstorming but I decided to post to get some comments tailored to us.

Our son is [name_m]Lonan[/name_m]. A little unique but we love it. We want something less popular this time too. We like that he doesn’t share the name with anyone, but the name isn’t too weird or out there. people can pronounce it.

Our list is all over the place. I’ve just been listing anything I like that my husband actually shows interest in.

Names I have listed are: [name_f]Alaina[/name_f], [name_f]Kira[/name_f], [name_u]Eloise[/name_u], [name_f]Iris[/name_f], [name_f]Isla[/name_f], [name_f]Ailsa[/name_f], [name_f]Maeve[/name_f], [name_f]Freya[/name_f], [name_f]Fenna[/name_f], [name_f]Cosima[/name_f], [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f], [name_f]Alba[/name_f], [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f], [name_f]Elora[/name_f]…

as you can see they are all over the place. I don’t know how well any of these names ‘go’ with [name_m]Lonan[/name_m]. WDYT??/

I really need some new ideas so if anyone has any please let me know!!!
Thank you all in advance.

Thank you for the replies!

[name_m]Lonan[/name_m] we just really liked. We found it while going through irish baby names as my husband has some irish roots. We don’t want to stick with Irish names though so we liked that [name_m]Lonan[/name_m] wasn’t obviously Irish so we don’t get stuck in a theme.

We were stuck between [name_m]Lonan[/name_m] and [name_u]Everett[/name_u] but when he was born he suited [name_m]Lonan[/name_m] so perfectly so it was an easy choice in the end!

I like [name_f]Orla[/name_f], [name_f]Maeve[/name_f], [name_f]Eleri[/name_f], [name_f]Audra[/name_f], [name_f]Coralie[/name_f], [name_f]Indira[/name_f], [name_f]Fenella[/name_f], [name_f]Esme[/name_f], [name_f]Selah[/name_f], [name_f]Junia[/name_f].

I will pass them on to my husband and see what he thinks. I find girls names SO hard!!
