Help! Our second daughter has arrived and we just can’t settle on a name.
Her big sister is [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] — names we chose because of the sound and nature connection of [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f], and [name_f]Alice[/name_f] is an old family name for us.
(Title of post is take 2 because another parent posted [name_f]Sister[/name_f] for [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] years ago, but hers was [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] I think!)
We are attracted to names with some history and/or some nature connection if possible. The middle name will be [name_f]Caroline[/name_f], after a family member.
Here are some options, what are we missing?
[name_f]Calla[/name_f]
I love [name_f]Maisie[/name_f].
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] (dolphin/delphinium)
Thank you for the suggestions – I almost forgot about [name_f]Violet[/name_f], that was the first of the flower names our 4yo was lobbying for
I hadn’t known [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] was wave, that’s neat.
p.s. do names automatically turn into links, or is there a step I’m missing?
[name_f]Maisie[/name_f], [name_f]Calla[/name_f] and [name_f]Mira[/name_f] are lovely!

From your list, I’d choose [name_f]Anna[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f].
(I adore [name_f]Clara[/name_f], but the flow of [name_f]Clara[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] doesn’t sound right to me).
I love these suggestions for you:
[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
Good luck deciding!
I really like [name_f]Calla[/name_f] and [name_f]Lilah[/name_f] with [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f].
[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] and
[name_u]Josie[/name_u] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]

I love [name_f]Anna[/name_f] with [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f]! I also like:
[name_f]Leonie[/name_f] (seconded)
Thanks all!
Why is it so hard to make up my mind this time? Last time we didn’t decide until we met the baby, but once we found the name it was clear. All you who make plans before the postpartum hormones kick in are wise.
[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] is our top girl’s name choice at the moment and potential second girl’s names we’ve considered are [name_f]Eliza[/name_f], [name_f]Margaux[/name_f], [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], [name_f]Juno[/name_f] and [name_f]Zelda[/name_f].
I like the idea of having a second girl with an x or z to compliment the v in [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f].

[name_f]Anna[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Miri[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Calla[/name_f], lilah, and maisie are my favorites and I think that [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] middle and and [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] go very well together
I’m biased, but I highly recommend it!
[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] & [name_f]Fern[/name_f]
I love [name_f]Anna[/name_f] and second [name_f]Margot[/name_f]–you can even use [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] as a nickname. Good luck!
There are two [name_f]Sofia[/name_f]/Sophias in her class, but just one [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f].
