Our little girl is due in [name_u]August[/name_u], and we still aren’t sure about a name. We already have a son [name_u]Owen[/name_u] [name_u]Reid[/name_u], and our last name starts with B if that helps. So far we’re leaning towards:
[name_f]Stella[/name_f]
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] (we mostly like the nn [name_f]Evie[/name_f], but are open to other names for that nn)
[name_f]Elle[/name_f] (which DH likes but sounds more like a nn to me)
[name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]
[name_u]Reese[/name_u]
I also like [name_f]Sera[/name_f] but I feel like her name would always be misspelled. We haven’t found a name that feels like “the one,” yet, so other suggestions welcome!! Thanks- [name_m]AB[/name_m]
[name_f]Sera[/name_f] like [name_f]Sarah[/name_f]? I think some people pronounce [name_f]Sara[/name_f] like [name_f]Sera[/name_f] and some are pronouncing it Saharh.
I like [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] the best. I suggest [name_f]Valerie[/name_f], [name_f]Marjorie[/name_f], [name_f]Sabrina[/name_f], [name_f]Georgina[/name_f], [name_f]Gillian[/name_f], [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], [name_f]Sabina[/name_f]…
[name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_f]Geneva[/name_f] instead of [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]? It sounds a bit more playful, perhaps, and I think it’s lovely and rarely heard. You could still use NN [name_f]Evie[/name_f] or [name_f]Neva[/name_f] is pretty, too! I quite like [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_f]Cecily[/name_f], too. [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] is lovely, but again, [name_f]Cecily[/name_f] seems a bit more lively. [name_f]Serena[/name_f] would be a lovely choice, too, and you could call her [name_f]Sera[/name_f] as a NN. I like that! My great-grandmother’s name was [name_f]Anna[/name_f] [name_f]Serena[/name_f], always said together like that, and I have always thought she was beautifully named! Good luck!
You have a lovely list. I think my favourites are [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] and [name_f]Elle[/name_f]…
Suggestions:
[name_f]Estelle[/name_f] - this way you get to call her both [name_f]Stella[/name_f] and [name_f]Elle[/name_f].
[name_f]Serena[/name_f]
[name_f]Celia[/name_f]
[name_f]Cosette[/name_f]
[name_f]Elena[/name_f]
[name_f]Evelina[/name_f]
[name_f]Bianca[/name_f]
[name_f]Viola[/name_f]
Well I have an [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and a [name_f]Stella[/name_f], though [name_f]Stella[/name_f] is a cat and I didn’t put any thought into their names matching. But I love those 2…
I also like the sound of [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_u]Reese[/name_u], as [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] is one of my top names for a brother for my [name_u]Owen[/name_u]. However, [name_u]Reese[/name_u] is cute, but nowhere near as lovely as [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f], [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f], and [name_f]Stella[/name_f] in my opinion.
I definitely like the idea of [name_f]Evie[/name_f] with [name_u]Owen[/name_u]. [name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f]? Or maybe [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] nn [name_f]Vivi[/name_f]?
Names I like with [name_u]Owen[/name_u]: [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f], [name_f]Matilda[/name_f], [name_f]Eliza[/name_f], [name_f]Mila[/name_f], [name_f]Mara[/name_f], [name_f]Penelope[/name_f], [name_f]Margot[/name_f], [name_f]Thea[/name_f], [name_f]Hattie[/name_f], [name_f]Maisie[/name_f], [name_f]Lila[/name_f], [name_f]Lily[/name_f], [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f], [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f], [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f].
I think my favourites are [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] and [name_f]Elle[/name_f]…
