We have two girls on the way and can come to no conclusion on names. This is my third post, and I am feeling a bit like I’m abusing the system. Anyway, my husband and I differ on style a bit- I am looking for something to honor our families, my Greek roots or at least be somewhat exotic. My husband likes more classic.
This is what is floating in my head so far. Any help is appreciated!!
Family names:
[name]Frederica[/name] (my mom)
[name]Maryjane[/name] (his mom)
[name]Jane[/name] (again, his mom’s middle name)
[name]Stella[/name] (my great grandmother)
[name]Eleni[/name] (my great aunt)
[name]Anna[/name] (his great aunt)
Random that I like:
[name]Helena[/name]
[name]Elena[/name]
[name]Georgia[/name]
[name]Thalia[/name]
[name]Clara[/name]
[name]Amelie[/name]
[name]Esme[/name]
[name]Simone[/name]
Only names my husband has offered:
[name]Anna[/name]
[name]Jacqueline[/name]
Congrats on the twins! Have you considered the option of each of you naming one of the twins. Maybe you could each come up with 3 or so names you would like for one of the twins and then together pick your favorite off each others list. [name]Just[/name] an idea.
Some ideas:
[name]Anna[/name] and [name]Stella[/name]
[name]Annabel[/name] and [name]Clara[/name]
[name]Jacqueline[/name] and [name]Thalia[/name]
[name]Jacqueline[/name] and [name]Elena[/name]
[name]Amelie[/name] and [name]Esme[/name]
I think [name]Jane[/name] and [name]Frederica[/name] would make great mns and honoring both of your mothers would be a really nice touch.
I’d say [name]Anna[/name] for sure since you’ve both had that on your list! I like [name]Amelie[/name] or [name]Maribelle[/name] and you could use that from his moms name.
What is your son’s name? Here are more combinations I like for your girls:
[name]Stella[/name] and [name]Jacqueline[/name]
[name]Anna[/name] and [name]Jane[/name]
[name]Clara[/name] and [name]Georgia[/name]
[name]Elena[/name] and [name]Simone[/name]
[name]Stella[/name] [name]Jacqueline[/name] and [name]Annabel[/name] [name]Clara[/name] would be so sweet!
Thanks again everyone, twins are here and we settled on [name]Elena[/name] [name]Jane[/name] and [name]Stella[/name] [name]Frederique[/name] (our last name is French, so it flows) on our last day in the hospital. Now if we could get everyone to pronounce [name]Elena[/name] in one way, we’d be good!
