*Thoughts on Artis*

[name]Hi[/name] everyone! I haven’t been around as much lately…thinking about baby names makes me think about babies! Since I don’t plan to have another, for at least a couple of years, I’m trying to stay away! Anyway, I want to know what you all think of [name]Artis[/name]? It snuck up on me, out of nowhere, and I think I’m in love! I think it would fit in nicely with my 2 girls…[name]Willow[/name], [name]Veda[/name], and [name]Artis[/name]…

I haven’t given much thought to middles, but drawing on names I’ve considered in the past, I like [name]Artis[/name] [name]Octavia[/name]! What would you pair with [name]Artis[/name]??

I really like it. At first I saw it and I’m like, ‘Is that supposed to be a shortened form of [name]Artemis[/name]?’ But then I clicked the link for it and I was surprised. I’ve never heard of [name]Artis[/name] before. Plus, it really does go with your other daughter’s names. I’m not going to do any matches cause I’m not so good at that, but [name]Artis[/name] [name]Octavia[/name] is beautiful. I like your style!

I think it’s lovely, though it is close to “artist” …not that that’s a bad thing! It really matches [name]Willow[/name] and [name]Veda[/name] in tone.
That said, my vote goes to you having a boy and naming him [name]Solomon[/name].
[name]May[/name] I ask what your daughters’ middles are?

Haha! Yes, my vote would definitely go to having a boy named [name]Solomon[/name], if I had a choice!

My girls are [name]Willow[/name] [name]Allegra[/name] and [name]Veda[/name] [name]Juliette[/name]. My hubby’s middle name is [name]Arthur[/name], so that’s just a little part of why I like [name]Artis[/name]. For me, the “t” at the end of artist is distinct, so [name]Artis[/name] doesn’t sound too close for my ears.

Nice! Looks like you prefer more feminine middles with your strong first names. I think [name]Artis[/name] [name]Octavia[/name] would be great, but here are some more:

[name]Artis[/name] [name]Delphina[/name]

[name]Artis[/name] [name]Calantha[/name]

[name]Artis[/name] [name]Hermione[/name]

[name]Artis[/name] [name]Leonor[/name]

[name]Artis[/name] [name]Penelope[/name]

[name]Artis[/name] [name]Thisbe[/name]

Thanks emmabobemma…I really like [name]Artis[/name] [name]Penelope[/name]!

Anyone else have opinions on [name]Artis[/name], or middle name pairings?
