What would you name a sibling to Lucrecia?

ethelmary · May 13, 2024, 2:04pm

[name_f]Lucrecia[/name_f] is the only name I feel like I truly love at the moment - to me she’s bright and romantic with a fairytale-like imagery and a soft, melodic sound. The combo would be [name_f]Lucrecia[/name_f] [name_f]Diana[/name_f].

However, I don’t have any names I love as much as [name_f]Lucrecia[/name_f] and have no idea what would actually go with it. I’ve thought of [name_f]Maxima[/name_f], [name_f]Rosalba[/name_f], [name_f]Estella[/name_f], [name_m]Amadeus[/name_m] and [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] but I’m not too sure about any of them. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Please may I check how you are PN [name_f]Lucrecia[/name_f]?

I say Loo-cree-shuh but there are a lot of international pronunciations.

[name_f]Lucrecia[/name_f] is lovely! I do really like the ideas you had, but if they don’t feel right how about…

[name_f]Elvira[/name_f]
[name_f]Lettice[/name_f] (or Leticia)
[name_f]Rosamonde[/name_f] (this spelling specifically gives me similar imagery to how you describe Lucrecia)
[name_f]Amalthea[/name_f]
[name_f]Floria[/name_f]
[name_f]Rafaela[/name_f]
[name_f]Romana[/name_f]
[name_f]Melicent[/name_f]
[name_f]Pomeline[/name_f]

[name_m]Alaric[/name_m]
[name_m]Auberon[/name_m]
[name_m]Florian[/name_m]
[name_m]Percival[/name_m]
[name_m]Valerian[/name_m]
[name_m]Clement[/name_m]
[name_m]Alasdair[/name_m] (this spelling always reminds me of the word debonair, which feels appropriate here)
[name_m]Aurelian[/name_m]

Thanks everyone for the lovely suggestions!

I pronounce it the Spanish way, like loo-CREH-sya? Don’t know how to write it but with a quick see-ah ending!

Firstly, Lucrecia is simply stunning — am excellent choice of a name.

From your options, I love Amadeus and Maxima. If interested in other Max names, may I also suggest Maximilienne for a sister or Maxence for a brother?

Other names that come to mind (please count any repeats as seconds!):
Annunziata
Belphoebe
Euphrasie
Hyacinthe
Lavinia
Violanthe

Bessarion
Lysander
Marius
Orlando
Sacheverell
Wolfgang
