[name_m]Hi[/name_m], could you help with a sister for [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] ([name_u]Scout[/name_u]) and [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] ([name_f]Poppy[/name_f])?
My sister-in-law is pregnant with her third daughter who will be a sister for [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f] and [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] [name_f]Olive[/name_f] who are called [name_u]Scout[/name_u] and [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] about 60% of the time. Their surname is [name_m]Henderson[/name_m] and she wants a 2 or more syllable first name with a ‘sweetish’ nickname that matches with [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] and [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f].
The first one that came to mind was [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f], nn “[name_f]Vivi[/name_f]”. Not sure if [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] [name_m]Henderson[/name_m] is too much “n”, but I think [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] would be lovely with [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] and [name_f]Penelope[/name_f]!
Others:
[name_f]Francesca[/name_f] (either [name_u]Fran[/name_u], [name_u]Frannie[/name_u], or my personal favourite, Cesca ([name_m]CHESS[/name_m]-ka)!)
[name_f]Arabella[/name_f]
[name_f]Arianna[/name_f] (too much “n” with [name_m]Henderson[/name_m]?)
[name_f]Caroline[/name_f] ([name_f]Cari[/name_f], [name_f]Cara[/name_f], [name_u]Caro[/name_u], [name_f]Lina[/name_f], [name_u]Kit[/name_u])
[name_f]Annabelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Alexandra[/name_f]
[name_f]Lydia[/name_f] ([name_f]Lia[/name_f], [name_f]Dia[/name_f], Lyddie)
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]
[name_f]Maria[/name_f] “[name_f]Mia[/name_f]”
[name_f]Helena[/name_f] or [name_f]Elena[/name_f] ([name_f]Lena[/name_f], [name_f]Ellie[/name_f], [name_f]Leni[/name_f], [name_f]Nell[/name_f], [name_f]Nellie[/name_f])
[name_f]Juliette[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucia[/name_f] or [name_f]Luciana[/name_f]
I like that the girls’ nn aren’t the typical ones (Scarlie or [name_f]Lottie[/name_f] and [name_u]Penny[/name_u] or [name_f]Nell[/name_f]) so I’d choose something that has the opportunity for a less-common nickname. I’m going to work backwards
[name_u]Scout[/name_u], [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] and [name_f]Flossy[/name_f] ([name_f]Felicity[/name_f] or [name_f]Florence[/name_f])
[name_u]Scout[/name_u], [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] and [name_f]Dottie[/name_f] ([name_f]Dorothy[/name_f])
[name_u]Scout[/name_u], [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] and [name_f]Dolly[/name_f] ([name_f]Gwendolyn[/name_f])
I like the idea of working backwards from a nickname:
[name_f]Gigi[/name_f] - [name_f]Georgia[/name_f]
[name_f]Coco[/name_f] - [name_f]Colette[/name_f], [name_f]Corinne[/name_f]
[name_u]Joey[/name_u] - [name_f]Josephine[/name_f], [name_f]Joanna[/name_f]
[name_u]Rory[/name_u] - [name_f]Lorelei[/name_f], [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]
[name_u]Romy[/name_u] - [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f], [name_f]Ramona[/name_f]
[name_f]Tess[/name_f] - [name_f]Theresa[/name_f], [name_f]Thessaly[/name_f]
[name_f]Bee[/name_f] - [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f], [name_f]Bianca[/name_f]
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f], nn [name_f]Greta[/name_f], would go well with [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] ([name_u]Scout[/name_u]) and [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] ([name_f]Poppy[/name_f]).
First name that came to my mind.
[name_f]Georgia[/name_f] or [name_f]Georgiana[/name_f]
[name_u]Scout[/name_u],[name_u]Penny[/name_u], and [name_u]Georgie[/name_u]. I think that’s so cute!
Please vote on my namelist below
Thanks everyone! lots of beautiful names here.
What do you think of [name_f]Olive[/name_f] ([name_u]Ollie[/name_u] or [name_f]Ivie[/name_f]), we also really like [name_f]Flora[/name_f] but do not want to use another F name (same as father and mother).
I love [name_f]Olive[/name_f]. And [name_u]Scout[/name_u], [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], and [name_f]Olive[/name_f] sound perfect. But since your girls have longer more old fashioned firsts as their proper name… I would go with [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] nn [name_f]Olive[/name_f]. [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f], [name_f]Penelope[/name_f], and [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] sound as right as [name_u]Scout[/name_u], [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] and [name_f]Olive[/name_f].
I think [name_f]Alexa[/name_f], [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f], [name_f]Eloise[/name_f], [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] and [name_u]Kennedy[/name_u] would go best with [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] and [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
What about using [name_f]Olive[/name_f] or [name_f]Flora[/name_f] as a mn? [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] goes well with [name_u]Scout[/name_u] and [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], but I’d probably use [name_f]Liv[/name_f] as a nn instead.
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] ([name_u]Scout[/name_u]), [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] ([name_f]Poppy[/name_f]), and
I thought [name_f]Olive[/name_f] was [name_f]Penelope[/name_f]'s middle name… I wouldn’t use that for a third daughter if that’s the case.
I like the suggestions of [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] “[name_u]Jet[/name_u]”, [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] “[name_f]Laidey[/name_f]” or “[name_f]Della[/name_f]”, and I’d like to add [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] “[name_u]Caro[/name_u]” or “[name_m]Arrow[/name_m]”.
