while making a top ten list of my boy’s names on here a bit ago, i had the realization that i couldn’t not include tarka. he’s very sweet and spunky, and i love the presumed meaning ‘wandering as water’. i’m at a loss for sibling names though, so my question to you all is:
what would you use as a middle name for tarka; and what would you name a sibling for your tarka combo?
I like [name_m]Tarka[/name_m]! Such a fun and unexpected sound.
I’d use [name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_m]Bow[/name_m] or [name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_u]Wolf[/name_u] if I was brave. [name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_m]Evander[/name_m] or [name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_u]Forest[/name_u] for a little more realistic.
@columbiacharm I love [name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_u]Forest[/name_u]!
I adore [name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_u]Willow[/name_u] as a beautiful name pairing, but if I think about wearability for an actual person, I think I’d use [name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_u]Henry[/name_u] (because [name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_u]Willow[/name_u] is a ever so water themed!)
I think I’d use the combos [name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u], [name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] or [name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_m]Ozias[/name_m]!
For siblings:
[name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m], [name_m]Sholto[/name_m] [name_m]Felix[/name_m] and [name_f]Elswyth[/name_f] [name_f]Tallulah[/name_f]
[name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u], [name_m]Lorcan[/name_m] [name_m]Ferdinand[/name_m] and [name_f]Bronte[/name_f] [name_f]Isolda[/name_f]
[name_m]Tarka[/name_m] [name_m]Ozias[/name_m], [name_m]Nevan[/name_m] [name_m]Silas[/name_m], and Rosfrith [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
Sorry, got carried away, but this was a fun name to work with
