My name is [name]Polly[/name] and this is my first time posting here… I’ve been lurking for ages but I’m in a slight pickle. My husband [name]Jack[/name] and I have 3 boys, [name]Teddy[/name] ([name]Edward[/name] [name]Paxton[/name]) is 6, [name]Max[/name] ([name]Maxwell[/name] [name]Tennyson[/name]) is 4 and [name]Gus[/name] ([name]August[/name] [name]Sawyer[/name]) is 2.
My pickle is this, we had our 3 boys and decided that they were enough for us and then we got the surprise of our lives…twins! Our boys were all very much a plan…we found out what we were having and they were all named well before they arrived, but since the twins were not so planned we thought it would be interesting to not find out what we are having, so I guess I need some help with names!
Girls names are a problem…I love so many its crazy! I would like you opinions on my list and any other suggestions you think might go with the names I already have.
If we have 2 girls I don’t mind them not having nicknames but if it’s a girl and a boy I think it would be nice to have all the kids with a full name and a nickname
Thanks in advance, sorry for going on and on,
[name]Polly[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Violet[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Ivy[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] and [name]Amelia[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] and [name]Lila[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Violet[/name] are my favorite together
[name]Maisie[/name] - Too cutesy.
[name]Lila[/name] - Meh.
[name]Evie[/name] - I like this as a nn, maybe for [name]Evelyn[/name].
[name]Sadie[/name] - [name]Love[/name]!
[name]Edie[/name] - Again, I like it as a nn. [name]Eden[/name], [name]Edith[/name], something else?
[name]Thisbe[/name] - NMS.
[name]Lottie[/name] - [name]Don[/name]'t like at all.
[name]Scout[/name] - Really don’t like.
[name]Emmy[/name] - Maybe as a nn but there are SO many Emmys and related names out there.
[name]Avery[/name] - Like better on a boy.
[name]Willow[/name] - NMS but ok.
[name]Gemma[/name] - Like it.
[name]Sophie[/name] - Like, too popular for me though.
[name]Grace[/name] - Meh. [name]Kinda[/name] boring TBH.
[name]Ruby[/name] - [name]Love[/name]!
[name]Violet[/name] - Cute.
[name]Amelia[/name] - Like!
[name]Ivy[/name] - NMS.
Your boys have great names! Obviously I’m partial to the name [name]Edie[/name] as it’s my own
[name]Edie[/name] & [name]Maisie[/name]
[name]Edie[/name] & [name]Evie[/name] (I would not fully recommend this combo but one of my flatmates is named [name]Evie[/name], and while it can get confusing I also think it’s sweet)
[name]Edie[/name] & [name]Thisbe[/name]
[name]Edie[/name] & [name]Sadie[/name]
I also love [name]Gemma[/name] & [name]Sophie[/name], [name]Gemma[/name] & [name]Ruby[/name], or [name]Sophie[/name] & [name]Sadie[/name]
Any ideas about what names you would use for boys?
Congratulations and good luck!!
[name]Lila[/name] (I adore most of the [name]Lil[/name]- names and this is no exception)
[name]Evie[/name] ([name]One[/name] of my favorite nn’s and it would be cute with the boys)
[name]Edie[/name] (I can never find a long form of this name that I love as much as I love [name]Evie[/name])
[name]Thisbe[/name] ([name]LOVE[/name]! It would probably jive better as a mn, though.)
[name]Lottie[/name] ([name]Charlotte[/name] could be a full name if you need it)
[name]Emmy[/name] (Perhaps short for [name]Emmeline[/name]?)
[name]Sophie[/name] (adorable name)
[name]Ruby[/name] (So cute with the boys’ names)
[name]Violet[/name] (nn [name]Vivi[/name], yes please!)
[name]Amelia[/name] (I really like this name and would use [name]Mia[/name] as a possible nn)
With the boys, I think [name]Sophie[/name], [name]Violet[/name], [name]Amelia[/name], and [name]Ruby[/name] are my favorites of your list. If I think of any suggestions, I’ll be back, but I love a lot of your current list.
I think that [name]Sadie[/name], [name]Gemma[/name], [name]Sophie[/name], [name]Grace[/name], [name]Ruby[/name], [name]Violet[/name], [name]Amelia[/name], and [name]Ivy[/name] would all go great with [name]Teddy[/name], [name]Gus[/name], and [name]Max[/name].
[name]Maisie[/name]- know 2 dogs with this name
[name]Lila[/name]- pretty
[name]Evie[/name]- more of a nn and is it eh-vee or ee-vee?
[name]Sadie[/name]- know 2 dogs with this name
[name]Edie[/name]- cute
[name]Thisbe[/name]- [name]LOVE[/name]!!!
[name]Lottie[/name]- too nicknamey
[name]Scout[/name]- cute for kid but not for grown woman
[name]Emmy[/name]- like it but maybe spelled [name]Emme[/name]?
[name]Avery[/name]- too popular and in the vein of [name]Madison[/name], [name]Kendall[/name], [name]McKenzie[/name], etc
[name]Willow[/name]- pretty
[name]Gemma[/name]- [name]LOVE[/name]!!!
[name]Sophie[/name]- too close to [name]Sophia[/name] which is too popular

[name]Ruby[/name]- [name]LOVE[/name]!!!
[name]Violet[/name]- [name]LOVE[/name]!!!
[name]Amelia[/name]- like alot

[name]Edward[/name] ([name]Teddy[/name]), [name]Maxwell[/name] ([name]Max[/name]), [name]August[/name] ([name]Gus[/name]) and [name]Thisbe[/name] and [name]Gemma[/name] look the most sophisticated, yet somehow, still cute and youthful, which is a perfect combo [name]IMO[/name]!
Out of your list I like:
[name]Maisie[/name]
[name]Lila[/name]
[name]Evie[/name] (as a nickname for [name]Evelyn[/name], [name]Evangeline[/name], [name]Genevieve[/name]…)
[name]Edie[/name] (as a nickname for [name]Edith[/name]?)
[name]Emmy[/name] (as a nickname for [name]Emily[/name], [name]Emmeline[/name]…)
[name]Willow[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] (nickname could be ‘[name]Gem[/name]’)
[name]Sophie[/name] (I prefer [name]Sophia[/name]!)
[name]Grace[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name]
[name]Violet[/name]
[name]Ivy[/name]
With your boys, I like:
[name]Maisie[/name] (possible nn for [name]Margaret[/name], [name]Magnolia[/name], [name]Magdalena[/name], [name]Mary[/name], etc [I think any name that starts with Ma- works, and it can stand alone too])
[name]Evie[/name] (possible nn for [name]Eve[/name], [name]Eva[/name], [name]Evelyn[/name], [name]Evangeline[/name]/a, [name]Evanna[/name], [name]Geneva[/name], [name]Genevieve[/name], [name]Eviana[/name], [name]Evonne[/name], etc)
[name]Sadie[/name] (possible nn for [name]Sarah[/name], [name]Mercedes[/name], but could stand alone too)
[name]Edie[/name] (possible nn for [name]Edith[/name], [name]Eden[/name], [name]Meredith[/name], Edelia, etc)
[name]Emmy[/name] (possible nn for [name]Gemma[/name], [name]Emmeline[/name], [name]Emily[/name], [name]Emilia[/name], [name]Emma[/name], etc)
[name]Willow[/name] (Possible nn [name]Willa[/name])
[name]Gemma[/name] (Possible nns [name]Gem[/name], [name]Emma[/name], [name]Gemmy[/name], [name]Emmy[/name], etc)
[name]Ruby[/name] (Possible nns [name]Rue[/name] and [name]Bee[/name])
[name]Violet[/name] (Possible nns [name]Vi[/name], [name]Lettie[/name], [name]Io[/name])
[name]Amelia[/name] (Possible nns [name]Amy[/name], [name]Mia[/name], [name]Elle[/name], [name]Ellie[/name], [name]Ella[/name], etc)
[name]Ivy[/name] (Possible nn for [name]Ivory[/name], i guess, but could stand alone obviously)
[name]Sophie[/name]
[name]Grace[/name]
I put possible nicknames because all your boys have nicknames, but not all of these names need nns or to be nicknames. Good luck!
