Suggestions for me?

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] guys! I’m trying to come up with a good, solid list of names I like. I have always loved names, and kept lists when I was a teenager, but seem to have gravitated towards completely different names now that I’m a little older. Not planning kids in the immediate future, but I would like to have a running list of names to consider whenever we get to that point. And I just enjoy names, and lists. So. What would you add/take away from my lists, as they are today? Bonus points if you can make me some lovely combos :slight_smile:

Girls:
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Catherine[/name_f]
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f]
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] (mn only)
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
[name_f]Mae[/name_f] (mn only)
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f]
[name_f]Molly[/name_f]
[name_f]Nora[/name_f]
[name_f]Tess[/name_f]
[name_f]Virginia[/name_f]

Boys:
[name_u]Carter[/name_u]
[name_m]Charles[/name_m]
[name_m]Edward[/name_m]
[name_u]Grey[/name_u] (mn only)
[name_m]Hayes[/name_m]
[name_u]Mason[/name_u]
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m]
[name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_u]Sawyer[/name_u]
[name_m]Wesley[/name_m]

From your girls list I am a big fan of [name_f]Virginia[/name_f], [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] and [name_f]Josephine[/name_f].
My combo suggestions, with some add ins from me would be;
[name_f]Virginia[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f]
[name_f]Virginia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_f]Emma[/name_f]

Personally, with such stalwart classic firsts I would go more daring in the middle;
[name_f]Virginia[/name_f] [name_f]Faye[/name_f]
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_u]Winter[/name_u]
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f] [name_f]Olympia[/name_f]!

On the boys side [name_m]Charles[/name_m] [name_u]Grey[/name_u] is simply smashing.

Girls:

Ooh thanks :slight_smile: I really love some of these suggestions!

@suzywoo I do think adding in a little more spunk would liven things up a bit. (I also feel like DH will like a litte more daring/not as ‘sturdy’ names so I feel like he would appreciate additions of that sort. However, he thinks it’s silly to talk about names seriously since we’re not TTC so I likely won’t actually have his input for a while. Haha!)

Of the boys names/combos you guys suggested, I adore [name_m]Hayes[/name_m] [name_u]Carter[/name_u] , [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] [name_u]Rowan[/name_u], [name_m]Wesley[/name_m] [name_m]Meyer[/name_m], and [name_m]Charles[/name_m] [name_u]Grey[/name_u]… they’re all just so handsome!

And the ladies… [name_f]Molly[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f] is lovely! [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] [name_u]Winter[/name_u] is too cute, if I could get behind [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] as a fn… & [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Nora[/name_f] is stunning. Maybe I need to start considering two mns :slight_smile:
