What’s Your Dream Family?

General Name Discussion
1

This is for name collectors, people without kids yet.
If you could choose the number of kids you have, the gender of each, and their names, what would they be? Also, what age you’d like to have them at and birth month, and maybe birthday (if you want to be specific).

For me, it would be 5 kids:

[name_m]Wesley[/name_m] [name_m]Edison[/name_m] [name_m]Ford[/name_m] and [name_f]Fiona[/name_f] [name_f]Willow[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] - boy girl twins, [name_u]December[/name_u] 23, age 28.

[name_f]Anneliese[/name_f] [name_u]Piper[/name_u] [name_u]Grey[/name_u] - girl, [name_f]April[/name_f] 2, age 31.

[name_u]Michael[/name_u] [name_m]Phineas[/name_m] [name_m]Levi[/name_m] - boy, [name_u]November[/name_u] 3, age 34.

[name_u]Eloise[/name_u] [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] - girl, [name_f]September[/name_f] 1, age 37.

I’m curious to see your desirable family. What personalities do you think they’d have?

[name_m]Wesley[/name_m] - athletic.
[name_f]Fiona[/name_f] - soft, quiet.
[name_f]Anneliese[/name_f] - extremely girly, obsessed with pink.
[name_u]Michael[/name_u] - very academic, winning all the awards at school (valedictorian, [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] League schools, etc.).
[name_u]Eloise[/name_u] - like me, nerdy, theatre obsessed, aspiring actress.

What’s your dream family?

I only want one kid, so this is going to be a fairly short response!
[name_u]Lionel[/name_u] “[name_m]Lenny[/name_m]” [name_m]Forrest[/name_m], and I’d like to adopt when I’m 27 or so. It feels weird to think about your kid’s “dream personality”, but I guess I’d really like it if he liked reading like I do. Other than that, as long as he’s a good kid I don’t have any preferences.
Bonus: Two black cats named [name_u]Stanley[/name_u] and [name_f]Miriam[/name_f].

3

I’d really like at least one of each, but if I had full choosing capabilities, then two girls and two boys.

[name_u]Rowan[/name_u] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]
[name_m]Bennett[/name_m] [name_u]Michael[/name_u]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Calvin[/name_m] [name_u]Gray[/name_u]

I’d hope that my girls would be tomboys, like me. I would still love them if they were not but I would be disappointed because I would not know how to be a mom to a girly girl. I would be happier if I could share the things I loved with them.
I want all of my children to be dirty, grubby, barefoot and wild. No tablets or videogames all day. I want them to love all things outdoors, love music, and love animals. And not just the fuzzy kind. I want them to respect bugs and reptiles and everything not-so-cuddly. It would be a bonus if they inherited my love of reading.
But mostly it is important to me that they are kind souls.

Right now i want only boys, since I can’t name girls haha.

I want two boys (preferably twins), and If i could name them whatever I want, then
[name_u]Marlow[/name_u] [name_u]Gus[/name_u] & [name_u]Mickey[/name_u] [name_u]Lennon[/name_u].

4 kids, 2 boys 2 girls. I couldn’t care less what they are like, as long as they are happy! In an ideal world without SO’s opinions…

[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Thiago[/name_m]
[name_m]Maxwell[/name_m] [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m]
[name_f]Miriam[/name_f] [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f]
[name_f]Susannah[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]

[name_u]Ari[/name_u], [name_m]Wells[/name_m], [name_f]Miri[/name_f], and [name_f]Sanna[/name_f]

Ideally it’d be two girls & two boys, though there’s no way I’m having as many as four irl!

[name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] “Guin”
[name_m]Caspian[/name_m] [name_u]Blaise[/name_u] [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] “[name_m]Kip[/name_m]”
[name_m]Albus[/name_m] [name_m]Caradoc[/name_m] [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] “[name_u]Asa[/name_u]”
[name_f]Mabel[/name_f] [name_f]Ffion[/name_f] [name_f]Nimue[/name_f] “[name_f]Bel[/name_f]”

I’d love to have one child, then twins of the other gender. I think dressing twins in complimentary (not identical) outfits would be so cute.
Not that sure on names, except that I’d love to name a boy [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m]. I currently haven’t got my heart set on a single girls name or two.

8

Right now I think I’d like 3 kids, 2 girls and a boy if I could pick. I would be more than happy with just two children though, and I’d really be happy with any combination of gender.

For 3 kids, 2 girls and a boy:
[name_f]Della[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f]
[name_u]Jude[/name_u] [name_m]Patrick[/name_m]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f]

9

Right now, I would love to have four kids, maybe two boys and two girls? I mean I’m still nowhere near having kids, but one can dream!

[name_m]Percival[/name_m] [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m]
[name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] [name_f]Astoria[/name_f]
[name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] [name_f]Clementine[/name_f]
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Rafael[/name_m]

10

Ideal I would like perhaps two children, one girl and one boy, fairly close in age. Probably [name_f]Margareta[/name_f] [name_f]Ebba[/name_f] [name_f]Frederika[/name_f] and [name_m]Gottfrid[/name_m] [name_m]Olof[/name_m] [name_m]Cornelius[/name_m]. Later on I might adopt a third child, when the others have grown up a bit, possibly a little girl named [name_f]Hedvig[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f].

Ideally I’d like to have 4 children with them being quite close in age (2-3 years), but maybe a bigger gap between 2 and 3. As for names I’d go:

[name_f]Pandora[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] [name_f]Fae[/name_f]
[name_m]Caspian[/name_m] [name_m]Sherlock[/name_m] [name_m]Walter[/name_m]
[name_u]Artemis[/name_u] Valkyrie [name_f]Clio[/name_f]
[name_m]Ptolemy[/name_m] [name_m]Lysander[/name_m] [name_m]George[/name_m]

In reality I’ll probably have two, and I’d like to adopt as well as have biological children, so names might differ.

12

My ideal family that I’d actually have:

[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] - born in either Oct/Nov or [name_u]March[/name_u] when I’m about 29/30.
[name_m]Lucas[/name_m] [name_u]Avery[/name_u] - born Feb/[name_u]March[/name_u]/[name_f]April[/name_f] when I’m about 33.
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f] [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] - born Sept/Oct/Nov when I’m about 36.

My ideal family that I’m not going to have, but a girl can dream!

[name_f]Alice[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] - when I’m about 27
[name_m]Lucas[/name_m] [name_u]Avery[/name_u] - when I’m 30
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f] [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] - when I’m about 33
Twins [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] [name_m]Nathan[/name_m] and [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] / [name_f]Orla[/name_f] [name_f]Natalie[/name_f] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_f]Frances[/name_f] - as a surprise when I’m about 38.

13

My dream would be two boys and two girls. If I’d been able to plan my life, I would have met my spouse a lot earlier and these kids would already be born and named. If I named them 100% on my own, they’d be:

DS: [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]
DS/DD: [name_m]Boaz[/name_m] [name_m]Landon[/name_m] / [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] [name_f]Willow[/name_f] [name_u]Rae[/name_u] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
DD: [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] [name_f]Meadow[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_f]Callie[/name_f]

14

Ideally I’d have boy-girl twins
[name_u]Sullivan[/name_u] [name_m]Clifford[/name_m] and [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_m]Foster[/name_m] - Sulley and [name_f]Daisy[/name_f].
I’d love a spring birthday so early [name_f]May[/name_f]/late [name_f]April[/name_f], maybe even into [name_u]June[/name_u].
As for my age I’d shoot for 30-34.
Personality-wise as long as the kids are well behaved and happy I don’t really care

15

I want to 2-3 kids, either one of each for two, or two girls and one boy.

Girls:
Lexington/[name_u]Lexi[/name_u] [name_f]Summer[/name_f]

[name_f]Leah[/name_f] [name_f]Briar[/name_f]

Boys:
[name_m]Milo[/name_m] [name_m]Andrew[/name_m]

16

I want 6, all or most of them adopted. I don’t mind age difference. If I got to name them:

[name_m]Caspian[/name_m] [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] “[name_m]Koa[/name_m]”
Nefertari [name_f]Diana[/name_f] [name_f]Camille[/name_f] “[name_f]Nara[/name_f]”
[name_m]Poseidon[/name_m] [name_f]Ilaria[/name_f] [name_f]Joy[/name_f] “[name_f]Posie[/name_f]”
[name_m]Tiberius[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] Aslan “[name_m]Bear[/name_m]”
[name_m]Maximilian[/name_m] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] [name_m]Dashiell[/name_m] “[name_u]Max[/name_u]”
[name_f]Lucia[/name_f] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] Braveheart “[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]”

I don’t have specific personality but I’d love my children to be strong characteristics with a good moral code, children who make a difference and love with their whole heart.

My boyfriend and I were actually joking about this the other day (definitely not seriously as we’re still teenagers lol), but we said 5 kids:

[name_u]Kennedy[/name_u] [name_f]Sarah[/name_f] [name_f]Myfanwy[/name_f] & [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_u]Alex[/name_u] Carrow - late [name_f]May[/name_f]/early [name_u]June[/name_u] 2029
[name_m]Grayson[/name_m] [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m] [name_m]Juan[/name_m] - mid [name_f]October[/name_f] 2033
[name_f]Skyla[/name_f] [name_f]Jill[/name_f] Addiena - early/mid [name_u]August[/name_u] 2035
[name_u]Hunter[/name_u] [name_m]Gustav[/name_m] [name_u]Ryan[/name_u] - late [name_f]April[/name_f] 2038

Personality wise, I would hope that they all have good morals and preferably similar ish interests (trying to find time for 5 different interests doesn’t exactly sound easy!) but also be individual from one another.

[name_m]Henry[/name_m] [name_m]Isaac[/name_m], [name_f]October[/name_f] [name_f]Libra[/name_f] 2025 (age 31)
[name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] “[name_u]Allie[/name_u]” [name_f]Bea[/name_f], [name_u]July[/name_u] Cancer 2028 (age 33)

Alternately, she’s the oldest and the boys are twins, in which case I want her in the late spring/early summer of 2026 ([name_m]Taurus[/name_m]/[name_u]Gemini[/name_u]/Cancer) and them in [name_f]October[/name_f] 2028 ([name_f]Libra[/name_f])

21

Ideally four, starting when I’m in my early 30s:

Harriet Rosalind, nn Hatty
Adelaide Isadora, nn Daisy
Lucia Jessamine (loo-CHEE-uh)
James Alexander

22

I just want a little [name_m]Archie[/name_m] :slight_smile:

[name_m]Archibald[/name_m] [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] [name_m]Charles[/name_m] “[name_m]Archie[/name_m]”, would be my dream but realistically, he’d be [name_m]Archibald[/name_m] [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] or [name_m]Archibald[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m].
