Sister for Paige! Please help!

I am 28 weeks pregnant and DH & I can’t agree on a baby name! We don’t know if we are having a boy or girl yet…but here are 2 the names we have just in case it is a girl:

[name]Daphne[/name] (DHs pick)
[name]Josie[/name] (my pick. My hesitation is that it may sound nicknamey, but I do love it).

Oh and middle name will be either [name]Joan[/name], [name]Jennifer[/name], Or [name]Elizabeth[/name] :slight_smile:

That is all we have but we are open to suggestions!! [name]TIA[/name]!

I like [name]Daphne[/name] [name]Joan[/name] or [name]Josephine[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] nn [name]Josie[/name]

I like [name]Daphne[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name]. [name]Josie[/name] is fine as a nn but I don’t like it too much as a full name. Here are some other suggestions that would go well with [name]Paige[/name].

[name]Sloane[/name]
[name]Hope[/name]
[name]Clare[/name]
[name]Blair[/name]
[name]Reese[/name]
[name]Quinn[/name]
[name]Rowan[/name]
[name]Megan[/name]
[name]Isla[/name]
[name]Erin[/name]
[name]Eden[/name]
[name]Brynn[/name]
[name]Eve[/name]
[name]Skye[/name]
[name]Brooke[/name]
[name]Blythe[/name]
[name]Faye[/name]
[name]Ivy[/name]

If you like nicknames for full names here are some names that can stand on their own.

[name]Nell[/name]
[name]Gwen[/name]
[name]Lee[/name]/[name]Leigh[/name]
[name]Tess[/name]
[name]Heidi[/name]
[name]Kate[/name]

Can [name]Josie[/name] really not stand on its own?? I really had my heart set on that name… By obviously I don’t want to use it if nobody likes it!

Thank you for the suggestions [name]Mischa[/name], any one else have suggestions for short, spunky girls names?

I like [name]Josie[/name] better than [name]Daphne[/name].

[name]Paige[/name] seems like a short, spunky name while [name]Daphne[/name] is more flowery-feeling.

[name]Josie[/name] is cute although people might often ask her what it is short for. If that isn’t a problem, go with it. It’s a great name for a little girl and a grown woman.

Also, I really like the name [name]Claire[/name] with [name]Paige[/name]. I think [name]Claire[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] would be lovely. :slight_smile:

I agree on [name]Josie[/name] not sounding like a full name. I think [name]Paige[/name] and [name]Harper[/name] or [name]Paige[/name] and [name]Sadie[/name] would be cool.

I think [name]Josie[/name] is totally fine as a first name! I love it! I also love [name]Daphne[/name] though… not much help I guess!

I have nieces (sisters) [name]Paige[/name] and [name]Tatum[/name], I always thought they sounded great together. I’m all for picking the name you love most over the name that goes “perfectly” with [name]Paige[/name] though.

I really love [name]Daphne[/name], and though I think [name]Paige[/name] and [name]Josie[/name] make a better set, [name]Daphne[/name] would be my first choice. I like [name]Daphne[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] :slight_smile: I think [name]Josie[/name] can stand on it’s own, if you don’t mind people constantly asking what it’s short for, or just making the assumption that she’s [name]Josephine[/name].

I like both [name]Daphne[/name] and [name]Josie[/name], but another idea I had for you is [name]Phoebe[/name] - she is classic and spunky, and goes wonderfully with [name]Paige[/name]!

You ladies are amazing! Off to show this to DH! Thank you thank you!

You should use what you like. It’s your baby. I’m a fan of giving a baby a full, formal name and calling her by a nickname. That way, she has options as she grows up and doesn’t like her name or finds there are too many with the same name or simply thinks it doesn’t age well with her personality.

I’m not a fan of the name [name]Daphne[/name]. [name]Josie[/name] is pretty. I would pair it with [name]Elizabeth[/name] if you choose not to make it [name]Josephine[/name].

Some other suggestions to go with [name]Paige[/name]:

[name]Emma[/name]
[name]Ella[/name]
[name]Lucy[/name]
[name]Kate[/name]
[name]Olivia[/name]
[name]Shelby[/name]
[name]Reese[/name]

I love them both. I prefer [name]Josie[/name]. It doesn’t seem too nicknamey to me. [name]Josie[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] is so pretty.

I think [name]Josie[/name] can stand on its own just fine and I think it goes well with [name]Paige[/name]. You could call her [name]Jo[/name] or [name]Jo[/name]-[name]Jo[/name] for short. [name]Josie[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] would be cute!

I love [name]Daphne[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name]. :slight_smile:

Good luck!

[name]Hi[/name] there

We’ve just made a similar post, because we’re struggling to find a name for the sister of our daughter [name]Maisy[/name] (Nameberry - Welcome to the Nameberry Forums)

[name]Paige[/name] was actually on our shortlist too, although we are now down to three – [name]Kinsey[/name], [name]Elliott[/name] and [name]Darcy[/name] / [name]Darcie[/name].

I really like [name]Josie[/name], and that was also on our list until quite recently. I don’t think it is too nicknamey… But then we are in the UK, were nickname names are The Big Thing! ([name]Hence[/name] [name]Maisy[/name]!!) :slight_smile:

Thanks redzed! I will check out your link :slight_smile: PS - I love the UK & UK inspired names :slight_smile:

I vote [name]Daphne[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name]. PERFECT and GORGEOUS! :slight_smile:

Thank you! Bumping for more name suggestions/input! :slight_smile:

[name]How[/name] about [name]Chloe[/name]? [name]Chloe[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] would be lovely! [name]Chloe[/name] combines the botanical image of [name]Daphne[/name] with the short, spunky sound of [name]Josie[/name].

A few other ideas, besides [name]Chloe[/name]:
[name]Lucy[/name]
[name]Zoe[/name]
[name]Rose[/name]
