What do you think of this sibset?

What do you think of the sibset [name_f]Nora[/name_f] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]?

In a perfect world, s/o and I will have a girl and a boy and at this point, this is what we would name them. Our surname is Cranmer.

Thoughts? Middle name suggestions? We like vintage names with some spunk! :slight_smile:

In your perfect world, how many kids would you have and what would their names be?

Mm for me [name_f]Nora[/name_f] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] sound a bit too similar for sibs with the double or sound but [name_f]Nora[/name_f] and [name_u]Theo[/name_u] is very cute.

Vintage namewise:
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m]
[name_m]Otto[/name_m]
[name_m]Benedict[/name_m]
[name_m]Isidore[/name_m]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m]
[name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]
[name_m]Cyrus[/name_m]
[name_m]Walter[/name_m]
[name_m]Harvey[/name_m]
[name_m]Cedric[/name_m]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u]
[name_m]Darwin[/name_m]
[name_m]Ambrose[/name_m]
[name_m]Solomon[/name_m]
[name_m]Simon[/name_m]
[name_m]Magnus[/name_m]

[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Mabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
[name_f]Hazel[/name_f]
[name_f]Tabitha[/name_f]
[name_f]Eleanora[/name_f]
[name_f]Elsie[/name_f]
[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f]
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Opal[/name_f]
[name_f]Lilith[/name_f]
[name_f]Astoria[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Olive[/name_f]
[name_f]Odette[/name_f]
[name_f]Edith[/name_f]
[name_f]Enid[/name_f]
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Willamina[/name_f]
[name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f]
[name_f]Ada[/name_f]
[name_f]Eve[/name_f]

In a perfect world: 4. 2 girls and two boys.
[name_f]Freya[/name_f] [name_f]Willamina[/name_f] [name_f]Briar[/name_f]
[name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] [name_f]Anna[/name_f] [name_f]Sapphira[/name_f]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_m]Fox[/name_m]
[name_m]Caspian[/name_m] [name_u]Everest[/name_u] [name_u]Emory[/name_u]

I think [name_f]Nora[/name_f] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] are lovely together. Maybe [name_f]Nora[/name_f] could be short for something like [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] so they’d both have longer names that could be shorted to sweet spunky nicknames?

For me, I want at least one daughter whose name will be [name_f]Sienna[/name_f]. I’d hope to have a boy at some point too, and at the moment our top contender is [name_m]Ramsey[/name_m]. I dont really know how many children I want but I’ve always wanted a big family, maybe three or five (I dont like even numbers!)

[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] and [name_f]Nora[/name_f] Cranmer sound so sweet and vintage! They work really well together

[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Hart[/name_m] is also perfection, it sounds so preppy. [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] seems a bit more modern to me, although it flows well, I’d go for something like [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Camille[/name_f] or [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]

Another boy and girl I’d add to the sibset would be:

[name_m]Miles[/name_m] [name_m]Calloway[/name_m] and [name_u]June[/name_u] [name_f]Eleanora[/name_f]

Same! I feel like odd numbers of children work so much better for some reason, even numbers tend to split into two sides more or something? I’m not sure

Ideally I’d have three or five, mostly boys- and a girl would be called [name_f]Rosa[/name_f]

[name_u]Emmet[/name_u] Ritho, [name_f]Rosa[/name_f] [name_f]Emmanuelle[/name_f], [name_m]Lorcan[/name_m] [name_m]Edward[/name_m], [name_m]Dashiell[/name_m] [name_m]Martin[/name_m] and [name_m]Angus[/name_m] [name_m]Rafferty[/name_m]

Great vintage name suggestions! I love quite a few of these.

I see what you mean about the “or” sound in each name.

I love your “perfect world” family! Looks like you have a think for girl’s names ending in “ah.” [name_f]Willamina[/name_f] is really pretty.

For some reason, I’m mostly drawn to shorter girl’s names! But thank you for the suggestion :slight_smile:

I really like the name [name_m]Ramsey[/name_m]!

I’m really digging how the two names sound with our last name!

You have great name taste. I really like the names [name_m]Lorcan[/name_m] and [name_m]Angus[/name_m]!

I think they’re a tiny bit too close in sound as the -or- sound seems very present in both names (especially on paper). I think [name_f]Nora[/name_f] & [name_u]Theo[/name_u] or [name_f]Nora[/name_f] & Ted would be lovely, though.
The middle names I’d give them, [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] & [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Hugo[/name_m].

In my dream world (meaning I get to use every name currently on my short list), I’d have 7 kids named [name_m]Henry[/name_m], [name_f]Flora[/name_f], [name_m]Hugo[/name_m], [name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_m]Arthur[/name_m], [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] & [name_f]Alice[/name_f] (with the middle names being uncertain), however, I think eventually, I will combine the names and make combos.
