I am pregnant with our third and just not coming up with any names that jump out at me. I’ve found oodles of names I love, but they don’t really jive with my older two, whom we’ve named [name_m]Orrin[/name_m] and [name_f]Norah[/name_f]. It wasn’t really planned that their names would sound to similar, they were just the names we liked best, but now I’m stuck on finding a third name that works as well. Also, we don’t know the gender, but we will be finding out.
The other thing is that we don’t shorten the older two’s names; we often use nicknames, but never based on their actual names. (Like ‘Bug’ or ‘[name_f]Sugar[/name_f]’ and things like that).
As for middle names, we normally pick something honouring our family, so those aren’t a huge issue.
Any suggestions? I really love unique names, but not confusing ones.
[name_u]Hadley[/name_u], [name_f]Hazel[/name_f], [name_f]Linda[/name_f], and [name_u]Penny[/name_u] all go well with [name_f]Norah[/name_f] and [name_m]Orrin[/name_m], I think. [name_u]Piper[/name_u] does, too. I love the name [name_m]Orrin[/name_m], by the way!
