Hey Berries! I had my first little baby on 3/13 and got to use my all time favorite boy name, [name_m]Fox[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m]. We don’t want another for a while but I wanted to know what names you like for a sister in this sibset. If we have another boy he will be [name_u]Linden[/name_u] [name_u]Blue[/name_u] ([name_u]Linden[/name_u] for my mom [name_f]Linda[/name_f] and [name_u]Blue[/name_u] is a family surname and brothers middle).
We tend to like shorter and spunkier names that aren’t super popular. I also like nature names. [name_f]Aria[/name_f] and [name_u]Wren[/name_u] are two I like a lot but [name_f]Aria[/name_f] is too common in my area and I can never pair [name_u]Wren[/name_u] with a middle plus [name_u]Wren[/name_u] and [name_m]Fox[/name_m] together seems like a bit much.
Congrats on your baby boy! [name_f]Aria[/name_f] sounds perfect next to [name_m]Fox[/name_m] -sad to see it goes away. Some names that come into my mind:
[name_f]Zoe[/name_f]
[name_f]Arwen[/name_f] - well, you have [name_f]Aria[/name_f] and [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] in your signature, [name_f]Arwen[/name_f] combines the sound of these two.
[name_f]Stella[/name_f]
[name_f]Niamh[/name_f]
[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Poppy[/name_f]
[name_f]Juno[/name_f]
[name_f]Bianca[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f]
[name_f]Nessa[/name_f]
[name_u]Winter[/name_u]
[name_u]Clare[/name_u]
It’s quite matchy but I like [name_f]Freya[/name_f] with [name_m]Fox[/name_m]. Think they sound great together.
Other names I think would go with [name_m]Fox[/name_m] -
[name_f]Heather[/name_f]
[name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Linnet[/name_f] (obviously if you aren’t going to use [name_u]Linden[/name_u])
[name_f]Lily[/name_f]
[name_f]Daisy[/name_f]
My immediate thought was [name_u]Arden[/name_u] - it’s strong and spunky yet still maintains a degree of femininity. Also, it has the nature connection in that it sounds a bit like ‘garden’ (but not in a bad way) and the nickname ‘[name_u]Ari[/name_u]’ sits quite well with [name_m]Fox[/name_m], I think.
Another possibility could be [name_f]Catrina[/name_f]/[name_f]Catrin[/name_f] or [name_f]Kitty[/name_f] for short? They both have the animal connection but aren’t both named directly after them.
Also, from your signature I think [name_f]Odette[/name_f] could really work, especially if you use the nickname [name_f]Ode[/name_f].
[name_m]Fox[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] and [name_u]Arden[/name_u] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_m]Fox[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] and [name_f]Catrina[/name_f] [name_u]Blue[/name_u]
[name_m]Fox[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] and [name_f]Odette[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
I don’t have many suggestions, but I want to say congratulations on the baby boy! [name_m]Fox[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] is such a handsome name!
I also love [name_u]Linden[/name_u] [name_u]Blue[/name_u]! I love your style of names in general :). Would you ever conisder using [name_u]Linden[/name_u] [name_u]Blue[/name_u] or just [name_u]Linden[/name_u] or [name_u]Blue[/name_u] on a girl if you didn’t have a boy?
A few more suggestions… [name_m]Fox[/name_m], ([name_u]Linden[/name_u]) &
I think of [name_f]Lyra[/name_f] as being very similar to [name_f]Aria[/name_f] but less popular (shares the musical meaning). [name_f]Lyra[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] would be nice.
Thank you! Loverly suggestions!
We actually would use [name_u]Linden[/name_u] [name_u]Blue[/name_u] if we had trouble conceiving #2 (We fell pregnant quickly with [name_m]Fox[/name_m]) since we might not have a chance for #3. Ideally we’d love 3 kiddos, so if we hadnt had a chance to use [name_u]Linden[/name_u] [name_u]Blue[/name_u] before hand then #3 would be named that regardless of it being a boy or girl We did contemplated [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] [name_u]Blue[/name_u] for this pregnancy before finding out we were having a boy.
Thank you all for the lovely suggestions! I’m really loving [name_f]Clover[/name_f] and [name_f]Freya[/name_f]. I’m torn that [name_f]Aria[/name_f] is so well received, I love how well it goes with [name_m]Fox[/name_m]. I’ve always loved being the only one with my name so I’m hesitant to pick a popular girl name. Definitely a bridge it’ll have to cross when/if I get to it.
