Yea pretty much the same as @ellerbea, but I think you could rock as a [name_f]Beth[/name_f] or [name_f]Lily[/name_f]

Loooooove [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] for a boy, I like the name in general, though I have a odd association with it for some reason, doesn’t make much sense but I always think about it in the back of my mind

I would absolutely be voting for mĂĄire miriam and mĂĄire mhaigdilĂ©ana if it weren’t too double [name_f]Mary[/name_f] or [name_f]Mary[/name_f] [name_f]Magdalene[/name_f]. (Although you can never have too many [name_u]Marian[/name_u] names, and I don’t know if the association is too strong for [name_f]Mary[/name_f] [name_f]Magdalene[/name_f] to use!)

Very very slightly different but barely noticeable, just has a slightly more -ehn sound to it

[name_f]Daphne[/name_f], [name_u]Florence[/name_u], & [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] would all be a great match!

i personally think cleo works better for a boy since clio is the name of one of the muses in greek mythology. cleo doesn’t really have a strong association for either gender.

I picked Leo August for flow, but the combo is a bit zodiac-ish considering Leo is an August sign!

  • Valentina Grace Exandria B.
  • Valentina Grace Anna B.
  • Valentina Grace Elizaveta B.

Would it be weird to have a sibset where one sister has a “boy name for a girl”, and the other has a very feminine name?

  • Very weird
  • A little weird
  • Not particularly weird
  • Not weird at all

I think if he is stipulating the first name/nickname, it’s fair that you should have more control over the middle names. So I voted one of your picks for that reason, but also because I think [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] [name_f]Elizaveta[/name_f] is really beautiful. :slight_smile:

I’d expect [name_u]James[/name_u] and [name_f]Arabella[/name_f] (for example) to be a mixed sibset rather than two girls and would find the parents’ choices really strange, it would make me think they really wanted a boy!

Depends on the names

[name_u]Rowan[/name_u] & [name_u]Hazel[/name_u] wouldn’t bother me
[name_u]James[/name_u] & [name_u]Hazel[/name_u] sounds rather odd to me
