hi there,
so my husband and i are ready to try for our second child, so of course i’m planning the name! we have a daughter names [name]Isabel[/name] [name]Honey[/name]…the name has such meaning to us, it seems hard to find another name to go with! if we have another girl I think we are set on the name [name]Penelope[/name], nickname [name]Nel[/name] or [name]Nellie[/name], however I need a middle name that works as a sister name to [name]Isabel[/name] [name]Honey[/name]. So far we have these middles that have meaning, but am looking for other ideas too:
[name]June[/name]
[name]Sugar[/name]
[name]Pearl[/name]
[name]Mae[/name]
[name]Clark[/name]
Thoughts on any of these with [name]Penelope[/name]? Other ideas for unique middle names? Other ideas for first names/middle combos that would work well as a sister name? Thank so much!!!
Out of your middle name choices, I think [name]Sugar[/name] goes the best with [name]Honey[/name], but I’m not sure if [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Sugar[/name] flows that well. When I first read [name]Isabel[/name] [name]Honey[/name], I thought of [name]Penelope[/name] Bloom or [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Blossom[/name].
Thank you! I will definitely check out the link…[name]Sugar[/name] does have meaning to us ([name]Sugar[/name], [name]Sugar[/name]) was our first song! So, I do like it but agree its not the best with [name]Penelope[/name]…
From your options I really like [name]Penelope[/name] [name]June[/name] and [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Mae[/name] but I don’t think they go well with [name]Isabel[/name] [name]Honey[/name] (btw her is gorgeous !).
I love the previous suggestion of [name]Penelope[/name] Bloom!
Thank you for the ideas! I agree nothing seems to flow as well as [name]Isabel[/name] [name]Honey[/name]…do you guys have other first name ideas? I love [name]Penelope[/name] but it is hard to find a middle that flows well…seems like it needs to be one syllable. Our last name starts with an N and is 2 syllables.
Hmm…
[name]Isabel[/name] [name]Honey[/name] is such a light sugary name. I think [name]Penelope[/name] works gorgeously with [name]Isabel[/name] but I do think you need to go with a quirky potentially southern-sounding middle name (like [name]Honey[/name]) which in all honesty rules out [name]June[/name], [name]Pearl[/name], and [name]Mae[/name] their far to sophisticated and grown-up teamed with [name]Honey[/name]. Yet I think [name]Sugar[/name] is just too candy induced with [name]Honey[/name]. [name]Sugar[/name] and [name]Honey[/name] is just an over-kill in my mind. But [name]Clark[/name] is great! [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Clark[/name] sounds so awesome : )

[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Leighton[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Grey[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Ellis[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Juno[/name] (variant of [name]June[/name] but works better with [name]Honey[/name])
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Liv[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Willow[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Isis[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Niamh[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Quinn[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Snow[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Sunshine[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Lark[/name]
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Wren[/name]
[name]Just[/name] thought I’d chime in that I love bellerose’s suggestion of [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Moon[/name]. I think it would be lovely next to [name]Isabel[/name] [name]Honey[/name]. But I think you should pick another word name with meaning to you.
Thanks everyone! I am definitely looking for a light, sweet name like [name]Honey[/name]…but not too much (I agree [name]Sugar[/name] is over kill)…a word name would be great but doesn’t have to be…[name]Just[/name] something cute and different to compliment her sister! Others I have thought about or like from above:
[name]Bird[/name]
[name]Lake[/name]
[name]Bay[/name]
[name]Sun[/name]
[name]Dream[/name]
Shine
[name]Summer[/name]
My favorites are [name]Penelope[/name] [name]June[/name] or [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Clark[/name] (my maiden name)…I just don’t know if they are sweet enough!!
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]June[/name] is very lovely, but I wouldn’t really call it “sweet”. Same with [name]Clark[/name], since it feels rather masculine.
What about [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Spring[/name]?
[name]Penny[/name] bee is adorable!!! [name]Love[/name] it! But we do call my daughter honey bee or Bizzie bee alot! I was thinking if we went with [name]June[/name] we would use [name]June[/name] bug or [name]Nellie[/name] bug. I love the color ideas though, violet is pretty and I also love spring! So many great ideas!
I can see your second baby girl wanting to have a bee name too, so honey bee and penny bee fit together like peas (or should I say like bees) in a pod.
[name]Penelope[/name] [name]Bird[/name] isnt that bad …
