What sibling names go with Leland?

A name my husband and I agree on for a boy is [name]Leland[/name]. It is my late grandfather’s name, and we both love it. I tend to like frilly, girly names. What are your suggestions for a brother and sister for a [name]Leland[/name]? I am not sure what style/time period [name]Leland[/name] would fall into. I know it is an older name, but I feel like it fits in with the current trends. Thanks :slight_smile:

I was seriously considering [name]Leland[/name] last time before I found out it was a girl. So I’ll just share some of my girl faves that I think would flow nicely.

[name]Vera[/name], [name]Louisa[/name], [name]Velma[/name], [name]Cordelia[/name], [name]Irene[/name], [name]Theodora[/name] (nn [name]Thea[/name]), [name]Beverly[/name], [name]Hazel[/name], [name]Lenora[/name] (might be too matchy though)

There was [name]Leland[/name] Chapman, his siblings are: [name]Duane[/name] lee, lyssa, tucker, zebidiah, [name]Gary[/name], bonnie, [name]Cecily[/name], … can’t remember the others buy [name]Lennon[/name] might go with it?

[name]Leland[/name] is great! It is vintage, so it is good that you like frilly, girly names. There are lots of pretty vintage girl names that you could pick from. Here are some from a hundred years ago that are currently popular now:
[name]Stella[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name]
[name]Cora[/name], [name]Cordelia[/name]
[name]Violet[/name]
[name]Alice[/name]
[name]Amelia[/name]
[name]Beatrice[/name]
[name]Isabel[/name], [name]Isabella[/name]
[name]Evangeline[/name]
[name]Lavinia[/name]
[name]Dorothea[/name]

thank you, everyone, for your recommendations. I love vintagey names. We just can’t seem to land on a girl’s name we both love. We both like [name]Annabelle[/name]/[name]Arabella[/name]… I love [name]Vera[/name], [name]Cora[/name], and [name]Louisa[/name] of your suggestions. niteowl- I pretty much love all of those names!! lol… but as far as ones that I would use/hubby would approve I like [name]Cora[/name] best :slight_smile: Thanks, all! Any ideas for brother names? p.s. I love [name]Ruby[/name], it is actually a family name… but I don’t think it suits our last name well, which is also a word name.

Keavy is a wonderful Irish name for a girl. I just recently heard this name. I was babysitting for a family and it was the mother’s name. According to records online, there are fewer than 1,500 people in the US with the name Keavy.

It seems like girl names are much easier for us! We have been talking about “brother names” for [name]Leland[/name]… we are having a hard time agreeing. He likes the names [name]Colton[/name], [name]Justice[/name]/[name]Justus[/name], and [name]Walker[/name]. I am liking [name]Luke[/name]. Any more suggestions for boy names that go with [name]Leland[/name]? We will likely call him [name]Lee[/name] at least some of the time, so a nickname type name would be a plus. :slight_smile:
