[name]Hi[/name]! I love [name]Caroline[/name] and [name]Spencer[/name] together, and I’m so sorry about [name]Violet[/name] [name]Hope[/name]. :frowning:

I love [name]Sallie[/name] ([name]Sally[/name] is one of my favorite names) and [name]Jane[/name], too. :slight_smile: Like you said, I think that [name]Sallie[/name] [name]Jane[/name] flows more naturally than [name]Jane[/name] [name]Sallie[/name], but I don’t see any reason why you couldn’t use [name]Jane[/name] [name]Sallie[/name]. You need to love the name, and I think it’s great that you’ve found a name you love. :slight_smile:

I really like [name]Jane[/name] and think you should go for it. It’s good with [name]Caroline[/name]. It is fresh and new but classic and lovely. I like it much better than [name]Sallie[/name], and would put it in the first position. [name]Jane[/name] [name]Sallie[/name] doesn’t have great flow, but if you love it, use it anyway.

[name]Daphne[/name],

Congratulations on your triplets! I bet you, your husband, [name]Spencer[/name], and [name]Caroline[/name] are very excited for those new babies!

So, off the bat I notice you have a distinguished surname name with [name]Spencer[/name] and an elegant classic in [name]Caroline[/name]. [name]Lovely[/name] names! Here are my thoughts for the babies…

[name]Jane[/name] is a great classic name, like [name]Caroline[/name], and I can definitely see [name]Jane[/name] “[name]Janie[/name]” with [name]Spencer[/name] and [name]Caroline[/name]! I worry a bit about [name]Jane[/name] with a one-syllable surname, but you say it isn’t an issue, so I’ll trust you with that one. I loved the combination of [name]Jane[/name] [name]Cecilia[/name] best, but if your husband isn’t sold, I guess it is out! My suggestion for you is [name]Jane[/name] [name]Felicity[/name], as [name]Felicity[/name] means “happiness” and you seem to have a penchant for virtue names as expressed in your girl name choices ([name]Caroline[/name] [name]Grace[/name] and [name]Violet[/name] [name]Hope[/name], God bless her!). I really love [name]Jane[/name] [name]Felicity[/name] the more I say it!

[name]Sallie[/name] - or [name]Sally[/name] - to me is a bit dated, but it is a cute nickname! [name]Sallie[/name] is no different than [name]Maggie[/name] or [name]Betsey[/name] or [name]Ruthie[/name], right? But, did you know that [name]Sallie[/name] is a diminutive - or nickname - of [name]Sarah[/name]? [name]Sarah[/name] would be right at home with a sister called [name]Caroline[/name], as both are timeless, sophisticated, feminine classics! You could have it all - a classic name to match her siblings and the easily-accessible [name]Sallie[/name] nickname that means so much to you! And, if she doesn’t look like a [name]Sallie[/name], you can always call her [name]Sarah[/name], or another [name]Sarah[/name] diminutive that is just as cute, [name]Sadie[/name]. If you like this idea, you could name your daughter [name]Sarah[/name] [name]Jane[/name], as [name]Jane[/name] [name]Sarah[/name] doesn’t flow quite as well. Or, perhaps you like [name]Sarah[/name] better, in which case I’d recommend [name]Sarah[/name] [name]Faith[/name], [name]Sarah[/name] [name]Patience[/name], [name]Sarah[/name] [name]Felicity[/name], or [name]Sarah[/name] [name]Margaret[/name]. Only issue with [name]Sarah[/name] is that it begins with the same letter as [name]Spencer[/name]…

Oh, boys! Well, you can’t guarantee that [name]Quentin[/name] would be a fifth-born, can you? The name is nice, but it reminds me of Mister [name]Tarantino[/name] - is that good or bad? I love [name]Walker[/name] with [name]Spencer[/name] - too bad your husband doesn’t! For me, [name]Sawyer[/name] is a bit on the trendy, modern side to fit with your more vintage names, so I’d stray away from that one. You might like [name]August[/name], [name]Caleb[/name], [name]Elias[/name], [name]Emmett[/name], [name]Henry[/name], [name]Maxwell[/name], [name]Rupert[/name], or [name]Theodore[/name] as options, too! My favorites are [name]Elias[/name], [name]Emmett[/name], [name]Henry[/name], [name]Maxwell[/name], and [name]Rupert[/name]. I’d personally recommend [name]Emmett[/name] [name]Walker[/name], [name]Maxwell[/name] [name]Sawyer[/name], [name]Henry[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name], or [name]Elias[/name] [name]Walker[/name] for your baby boys!

So, here are some name combinations for your triplets:

[name]Jane[/name] [name]Felicity[/name]
[name]Maxwell[/name] [name]Sawyer[/name]
[name]Henry[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name]

[name]Sarah[/name] “[name]Sallie[/name]” [name]Margaret[/name]
[name]Emmett[/name] [name]Walker[/name]
[name]Henry[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name]

Good luck!

[name]Jane[/name] [name]Rosalie[/name] is brilliant!

Clearly you love [name]Jane[/name], nn [name]Janie[/name], so I think the first name for your girl is set. The first name is most important, that’s what will identify her, that’s what you’ll be saying for the rest of your life, so go with the one you love and don’t worry too much about the flow. It’s true that [name]Sallie[/name] [name]Jane[/name] flows better than [name]Jane[/name] [name]Sallie[/name], but for simplicity, I’d make her first name be the one you want to call her. [name]Jane[/name] [name]Sallie[/name] is fine, especially since you love [name]Jane[/name] so much. I really love the suggestion of [name]Jane[/name] [name]Rosalie[/name], if you were open to changing the form of [name]Sallie[/name] a bit.

great names!
if you are unsure if you like how [name]Jane[/name] [name]Sallie[/name] flows, sometimes if you add in a second middle name it might help!
Going by your suggestions, how about [name]Jane[/name] [name]Marion[/name] [name]Sallie[/name]? This, to me at least, seems to flow a little better then simply [name]Jane[/name] [name]Sallie[/name]! Try it with the other girls names you like and see if anything works better for you!

Congrats! Wow, triplets will be very fun! After you get used to the no sleep and crying! Well i think because you like [name]Jane[/name], you will like [name]Jenna[/name]. I think it is a beautiful name. I also think it would be cute for all of the names to start with a J, if you use [name]Jane[/name], or [name]JENNA[/name] [name]JENNA[/name] [name]JENNA[/name]! I love that name! So I like [name]Jack[/name], [name]Josh[/name], [name]Jeremy[/name], [name]Jordan[/name], [name]Jude[/name], [name]Joey[/name], [name]JACE[/name](I [name]LOVE[/name] THAT) [name]Jackson[/name], [name]James[/name]( i realllly like) Jarron, [name]Jarrad[/name], [name]Jason[/name], [name]Jeff[/name]/[name]Jeffery[/name], [name]Jerry[/name], [name]Jessy[/name]/[name]Jessie[/name]/[name]Jesse[/name], [name]Jim[/name],[name]Joe[/name], [name]Joel[/name], [name]John[/name], [name]Johnny[/name]/[name]Johnnie[/name], [name]Jonah[/name], [name]Jonathan[/name], [name]Julian[/name], and [name]Justin[/name]. WHEW that was alot of names! and I also really like (for girl) (jane and [name]Jenna[/name]) [name]Julia[/name], [name]Jacklynn[/name], [name]Jackie[/name], [name]Jonnie[/name], [name]Jerry[/name], Jahne (A REALLY COOL [name]WAY[/name] TO SPELL [name]JANE[/name]! IM ALL ABOUT SPELLING THINGS WIERD) [name]Jorgina[/name], Jetlie( i like that) and Niccolette ( not a J but cute!) Jewles, [name]Janice[/name], Jalyne, [name]Jay[/name]-[name]Lynn[/name], [name]Jenny[/name], [name]Jen[/name], [name]Jennifer[/name]. Wow there are so many, i could go on and on! I REALLY [name]HOPE[/name] THIS HELPS!!!

I love [name]Quentin[/name] [name]Walker[/name].

Thank you all so much for your help with our triplets’ names!

Since I last posted I also thought of a new idea. I thought of the name [name]Georgiana[/name] (pronounced jor-jayna as it’s pronounced in [name]England[/name]) with the nn [name]Jane[/name], since it’s found inside the name phonetically. What do you think? [name]Do[/name] you think we’d have trouble with others’ pronunciation? Well maybe that won’t matter so much since we’ll be calling her [name]Jane[/name] (although the more I say it the more I love to say [name]Georgiana[/name] and might be tempted to call her that all the time although of course my hubby likes [name]Jane[/name] the best.) I’m also hoping we won’t have trouble when filling out forms that the name she is called is so different from her legal name although it’s not much different than a [name]Robert[/name] going by [name]Bob[/name], right?

So, this week I like:
[name]Georgiana[/name] [name]Violet[/name] (the best)
[name]Georgiana[/name] [name]Sallie[/name] (kind of)

Also thought of:
[name]Jane[/name] [name]Beatrice[/name]

What are your thoughts on this idea?

For boys, it’s hard for me to get excited about any classic or vintage names as I’ve always liked surname names or other similar 2-syllable boy names. Hoping that’s still okay with our classic or vintage girl names?!?

My husband’s favorite boys name is [name]Sawyer[/name]. I like it too. (His other favorite is [name]Oakley[/name]…I like [name]Sawyer[/name] better.) We’ve liked it for years, long before the show “Lost”. I didn’t realize it was considered trendy. I don’t know anyone in my area yet with that name but of course there could be some. [name]Don[/name]'t know any myself but I’ve heard (I think I read it on this website) that lots of people are also using it for girls (bummer!). My husband says if that’s true it doesn’t bother him. [name]Do[/name] you think this is going to be a problem for our son? When we named our son [name]Spencer[/name] 7 years ago, I was somewhat concerned about this problem also (about the name going all to the girls) but I’m so glad we went with [name]Spencer[/name] anyway because so far it hasn’t been a problem for us at all. We would have 2 boys starting with an “S” which isn’t “perfect” but they will be 7 years apart and not in the same multiples group which isn’t as bad. I don’t think it’s bad enough not to use it with it being such a favorite name of ours, right?

We also like [name]Quentin[/name] [name]Walker[/name], [name]Quentin[/name] being after an uncle of mine and [name]Walker[/name] being one of my absolute favorites (also a family name).

[name]Feel[/name] free to share your thoughts on these!

I have been hoping for a long time to hear of someone naming their baby [name]Sally[/name]. It reminds me of a girl who is carefree and happy with red hair that is tousled by the wind, it reminds me of a fast paced executive smartly dressed in the ‘suit’ with towering high heels. [name]Sally[/name] is a pretty but unusual name, very refreshing. Yay for a [name]Sally[/name]!!

[name]Jane[/name] is of course a dark haired beauty with a ton of ‘presence’ who is a born leader used to getting her own way because she is so charming. [name]Jane[/name] is a winner in life.

I would prefer [name]Sally[/name] [name]Jane[/name] if you wish to use both names because it flows better, and if you want to use her middle name everyday, so be it!

All the best with your babies.

For boys here are some combos

[name]Miles[/name] [name]Quentin[/name] A great combo
[name]Miles[/name] [name]Asher[/name]

[name]Quentin[/name] [name]Rhys[/name]
[name]Quentin[/name] [name]James[/name]
[name]Quentin[/name] [name]Findlay[/name]

[name]Lachlan[/name] [name]Walker[/name], love, love [name]Lachlan[/name]
[name]Lachlan[/name] [name]James[/name]

[name]Ashton[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name] prefer [name]Ashton[/name] over [name]Asher[/name] with [name]Nicholas[/name]

[name]Walker[/name] [name]Ian[/name] [name]Scott[/name]

[name]Grant[/name] [name]Walker[/name]
[name]Mason[/name] [name]Walker[/name]
[name]Jules[/name] [name]Walker[/name]

[name]Asher[/name] [name]Jamison[/name]
[name]Asher[/name] [name]Reilly[/name]

I want to like [name]Salli[/name] but I just cant get behind the name. [name]LOVE[/name] both [name]Jane[/name] and [name]Georgina[/name] pronounced any way. Also really like [name]Sawyer[/name] and quintin for a boy. I understand your concern about sawyer going to the girls side. I feel like [name]Sawyer[/name] could be like [name]Morgan[/name], [name]Harper[/name] and reiley I associate all those with boys even though I know girls with those names.
