Hey everyone,

We’re currently expecting baby #2 In [name_u]January[/name_u]. [name_m]New[/name_m] baby will be a delivery suprise and join big brother [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] [name_m]Kael[/name_m] ( who goes by [name_m]Kael[/name_m]). We’re having a terrible time finding names for this little one. We tend to like English/Scottish/irish names - but we’re not limited to them. Boy middle name will be [name_m]William[/name_m] but girls middle can be anything. Last name is F0rrestt. Heres our ideas so far:

Girls:
[name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Elin[/name_f]
[name_f]Emme[/name_f] [name_f]Isla[/name_f]

Boys:
[name_m]Breccan[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_u]Quinn[/name_u] [name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m]

Any suggestion, opinions, or ideas would be much appreciated!! Thanks everyone!!

Congratulations on your second child! Good for you for keeping it a surprise - that’s what I would love to do when I start my family, and I hope I have the willpower not to find out. :slight_smile:

[name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Elin[/name_f] - I’m not a big fan of [name_f]Ayla[/name_f], but that’s just personal preference. I like [name_f]Elin[/name_f].
[name_f]Emme[/name_f] [name_f]Isla[/name_f] - I love [name_f]Emme[/name_f]. I like [name_f]Isla[/name_f].

Another name you may want to consider for a first name is [name_f]Yvaine[/name_f] - I love that! I think [name_f]Emme[/name_f] [name_f]Yvaine[/name_f] and [name_f]Yvaine[/name_f] [name_f]Isla[/name_f] both have a great flow to them.

[name_m]Breccan[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] - this has a very rugged masculine quality to it. [name_u]Love[/name_u] it!
[name_u]Quinn[/name_u] [name_m]William[/name_m] - very handsome combo.
[name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] - I don’t care for [name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] at all.

Some other names you might like:

[name_m]Angus[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_u]Campbell[/name_u] [name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_m]Duncan[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_u]Leland[/name_u] [name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_m]Knox[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m]

[name_m]Hi[/name_m]! Congrats on [name_u]Baby[/name_u] #2! [name_m]How[/name_m] exciting.
I quite like [name_m]Kael[/name_m]. [name_f]My[/name_f] friends have a son called [name_m]Cale[/name_m]. Such an adorable name.
[name_f]My[/name_f] first thought was “[name_m]Forrest[/name_m]” for you, then I read to the part where you said that’s your last name. I guess [name_m]Forrest[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Forrest[/name_m] really doesn’t work, huh?:slight_smile: [name_m]Will[/name_m] you also call this baby by his/her middle name?

Girls:
[name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Elin[/name_f]- I personally think this is a bit too close to [name_m]Kael[/name_m].
[name_f]Emme[/name_f] [name_f]Isla[/name_f]- Pretty, but the [name_f]Emma[/name_f]/ [name_f]Emily[/name_f]/ [name_f]Emme[/name_f] family is kinda overused. What about combining these sounds ([name_f]Emme[/name_f] and [name_f]Isla[/name_f]) into [name_f]Esme[/name_f]? Or using [name_f]Isla[/name_f] as a first? [name_f]Jada[/name_f] would be pretty, too.

Boys:
[name_m]Breccan[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_u]Quinn[/name_u] [name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m]

The boy’s names are all kind of “meh” for me. [name_m]Just[/name_m] not my style! Sorry!
But other ideas are:
[name_u]Grady[/name_u]
[name_u]Parker[/name_u]
[name_u]Kolby[/name_u]
[name_u]Keegan[/name_u]
[name_m]Javin[/name_m]
[name_u]Shea[/name_u]
[name_u]Rhys[/name_u]
The good thing is almost anything sounds great with [name_m]William[/name_m]!

I REALLY like [name_m]Breccan[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m]. It’s so handsome and it goes really well with your other son’s name. :smiley:

The flow of both your girls names is a little off to me. I do love [name_f]Emme[/name_f], but as a nickname for a more formal name. I’m not a fan of [name_f]Ayla[/name_f], but I love [name_f]Isla[/name_f].

Suggestions
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] nn [name_f]Emme[/name_f]
[name_u]Emerson[/name_u]
[name_f]Emma[/name_f]
[name_f]Emiliana[/name_f]

[name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] nn [name_f]Emme[/name_f]. I think it sounds much more “official” than just using [name_f]Emme[/name_f] as the given name. I also like [name_u]Piper[/name_u] and [name_f]Elsa[/name_f]. Some middle name combination suggestions:

[name_f]Paige[/name_f]

I think [name_f]Emme[/name_f] [name_f]Isla[/name_f] and [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] [name_m]William[/name_m] are the best options with older brother names [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] [name_m]Kael[/name_m].

9

[name_m]Breccan[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m], that’s my vote for your boy and [name_f]Emma[/name_f] is my vote for your girl because I also have it on my list.I had searched for unqiue baby names on baby names sites my searches I found out that there is a free baby names book download with some cool ideas for baby names. Here it is Newsletter Sign Up but I am still debating about the right name , what do you think is better [name_f]Emma[/name_f] or [name_f]Alice[/name_f] ?

10

Those are some great suggestions! Can’t wait to run them by my husband! I hadnt heard/thought of the name [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] until I saw it on this site. [name_m]How[/name_m] would you pronounce it ( we’re in [name_f]Canada[/name_f])?? Emm-uh-line or Emm-uh-leen??

11

I like [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] (Emm-uh-line) nn [name_f]Emme[/name_f] with [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] [name_m]Kael[/name_m]. [name_f]My[/name_f] other favorite from your list was [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] [name_m]William[/name_m]. [name_m]Lachlan[/name_m] or [name_m]Declan[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] Forr— are very handsome too. [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f] nn [name_f]Elsie[/name_f] for a girl was my first thought for a girl.

[name_m]Atticus[/name_m] [name_m]Kael[/name_m] and
