Ugh! Sibling Girl's Names for Graham?

Girl Names
1

Hey, Nameberry community! We have a gender reveal party coming up, and we are making two banners… one with the girl’s name and one with the boy’s, and we’ll hang up the appropriate gender after the reveal is made. We have one son named [name_m]Graham[/name_m] [name_m]Irwin[/name_m], and we have already chosen [name_m]Asher[/name_m] [name_m]Lucas[/name_m] as our boy’s name for number two if it is a boy… But the girl’s name, if it is a girl? It has us stumped.

We want something unique but not over-the-top. We have several names on our list but so far nothing has just grabbed us. Help! :confused:

A few considerations we have made: [name_f]Tovah[/name_f], [name_u]Quinn[/name_u], [name_u]Finley[/name_u], [name_f]Lisbeth[/name_f], and [name_u]Shiloh[/name_u].

I adore [name_f]Tovah[/name_f]. [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] is cute too. If you like [name_u]Quinn[/name_u], have you considered [name_u]Quincy[/name_u] or Quinlee?

I think out of your list [name_f]Tovah[/name_f] is my favorite! I like the combination [name_f]Tovah[/name_f] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u].

Quinlie orQuinley, [name_f]Quincie[/name_f], Quinnith, [name_f]Cherith[/name_f], Nayvia(navy-a),[name_f]Rubie[/name_f], [name_f]Liza[/name_f] orLizah, Ulaylie

Out of your list I like [name_f]Tovah[/name_f] the best, it’s unique without being weird and it has a lovely sound to it.

I’ve tried my best to come up with some suggestions…
[name_f]Aster[/name_f]
[name_f]Ramona[/name_f]
[name_u]Tora[/name_u]
[name_f]Ingrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Oona[/name_f]
[name_f]Suri[/name_f]
[name_f]Zora[/name_f]
[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Astrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Inka[/name_f]
[name_u]Sage[/name_u]
[name_u]Rowan[/name_u]
Troian
[name_f]Mila[/name_f]
[name_f]Juno[/name_f]

Not sure if I’ve hit the right mark there but they reflect the same kind of vibe as your other considerations to me. Good luck and don’t rush the decision if you’re not certain before the reveal party!

Hmm, you’ve ordered a unique but not too elaborate girl name to go with [name_m]Graham[/name_m]. Let me see what I can cook up:

[name_f]Blythe[/name_f]: Among short names, [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] is definitely unique but earns points for still being very feminine. [name_m]Graham[/name_m] and [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] as a sibset would be to die for.

[name_f]Calla[/name_f]: This charming name is surprisingly rare, despite it’s ease to pronounce and spell. It means “beautiful” as a bonus, and shares its name with the [name_f]Calla[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f]. [name_m]Graham[/name_m] and [name_f]Calla[/name_f] sounds lovely in my opinion.

[name_f]Eliska[/name_f]: A distinct form of [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], [name_f]Eliska[/name_f] channels a bit of [name_f]Lisbeth[/name_f] with the strength of [name_f]Tovah[/name_f]. Nickname Lissy is adorable.

[name_u]Ever[/name_u]: It’s definitely unique, [name_u]Ever[/name_u] would stand out from classmates [name_f]Ella[/name_f] and [name_f]Emma[/name_f], yet everyone would be able to pronounce and spell it no problem. It’s sounds very natural with [name_m]Graham[/name_m] to boot!

[name_u]Hadley[/name_u]: Embodies the slightly unisex vibe you seem to enjoy, but with a little feminine flair the way I see it. I adore the pairing of [name_m]Graham[/name_m] and [name_u]Hadley[/name_u], also.

[name_f]Indie[/name_f]: It’s certainly freeform, and [name_f]Indie[/name_f] would make a charming sister to [name_m]Graham[/name_m]. [name_f]Indie[/name_f] [name_f]Lisbeth[/name_f] would be spectacular.

[name_f]Kaia[/name_f]: Similar to [name_f]Calla[/name_f], exhibits some familiar qualities in a more unusual package.

[name_f]Lisette[/name_f]: Another spin on [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], an alternative to [name_f]Lisbeth[/name_f] that adds [name_m]French[/name_m] flair. I think it parallels the classiness of [name_m]Graham[/name_m], but still manages to be unique and not boring.

[name_f]Lyra[/name_f]: More unique than [name_f]Luna[/name_f], but evokes the same starry night sky imagery. Yet the simplistic sounds are seamless with brother [name_m]Graham[/name_m]. This might be my favorite after [name_u]Hadley[/name_u] of these options.

[name_f]Maeve[/name_f]: It’s an Irish beauty that sounds unisex even though it isn’t, it really falls into the same category as [name_u]Quinn[/name_u], but may even be more of a standout without being ridiculous.

[name_f]Opal[/name_f]: Reflects the [name_m]Long[/name_m] O of [name_f]Tovah[/name_f], references a beautiful precious stone, and sounds appropriately precious next to [name_m]Graham[/name_m].

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] you see some options you like, best of luck with your new baby!

I’m reading so much pressure in your post that I just have to comment that it’s okay NOT to announce a name until after you have met your baby. Take all the time you need so you don’t have to deal with name regret because of a rushed decision:). All the best.

14

Yes, firs things first- don’t announce a name (certainly so large scale!) if you’re not 100 % sure it’s the one you love. No one expects to hear a name at a gender reveal; they are excited enough about the gender.

Names… I loved the suggestion of [name_f]Calla[/name_f] as [name_m]Graham[/name_m]'s little sis.

15

I agree w pp’s… it’s ok to make your girl banner with the initials “TBA…” to be announced! We had a gender reveal with Angus, and kept his name a secret until birth (in spite of incredible pressure.) Nothing bad happened and it didn’t detract at all from the party.
You seem to like soft, “whispery” sort of names, gentle and serene. How about:
Hannah
Laine
Isla
Olivia
Phoebe
Willa
Tallulah (Tally)
Ember
Wendy
Juniper (Junie)
Lyra
Olwen
Iris
Heddy
Hildy
Sylvie
Blair
Cassia
Aspen
