What would you name a sister to..?

This is all hypothetical, but I’m redoing my lists (sort of) and like to have a nice even top ten. I have 7 names at the moment, and one maybe name…so what names would you add to this list?

[name_f]Antigone[/name_f]
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Guinevere[/name_f]
[name_f]Hermione[/name_f]
[name_f]Octavia[/name_f]
[name_f]Sibyl[/name_f]
[name_f]Theodosia[/name_f]

I’m considering adding [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], but I’m not sure?

If possible, please only suggest names with different initials.

Thanks berries, can’t wait to see your suggestions! :slight_smile:

:slight_smile:

Thank you for all of these great suggestions! :slight_smile: I have had several of these names on my lists as firsts and middles before, so you have definitely got my style right.

From these suggestions, I’m going to consider…
[name_f]Isolde[/name_f]
[name_f]Pandora[/name_f]
[name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]
[name_f]Drusilla[/name_f]
[name_f]Isadora[/name_f]
[name_f]Demelza[/name_f]

What are your thoughts of [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] of [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] with this list?

Apart from [name_f]Sibyl[/name_f] and [name_f]Theodosia[/name_f] all your names have been on my list for girls so I’ll add…
[name_f]Persephone[/name_f]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Isadora[/name_f]
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f]
It’s a great list. I’m sad I only got to use 2 names :blush:

Thank you! I am considering [name_f]Isadora[/name_f]. I would consider [name_f]Persephone[/name_f] too if I didn’t love [name_m]Percival[/name_m] so much.

What two did you get to use if you don’t mind sharing?

I slightly prefer [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] to [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] here - the X gives it a fitting eccentricity, but there’s something too jarring about it compared to the other rounded, flow-y type names you have there.

Avoiding repeats, some other suggestions
[name_f]Francesca[/name_f], Francesa
[name_f]Bryony[/name_f]
[name_f]Angharad[/name_f]
[name_f]Emanuelle[/name_f]
[name_u]Damaris[/name_u]
[name_f]Hestia[/name_f]
[name_f]Clemency[/name_f]
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
Isola, [name_f]Isolde[/name_f]
[name_f]Magdalena[/name_f]
[name_f]Constance[/name_f]
[name_f]Georgina[/name_f], [name_f]Georgia[/name_f]
[name_f]Xanthe[/name_f]
[name_f]Helena[/name_f]
[name_f]Thalassa[/name_f]
Hespera
[name_f]Maude[/name_f]
[name_f]Agatha[/name_f]
[name_f]Christiana[/name_f]
[name_f]Elspeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Hebe[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalba[/name_f]
[name_f]Pomona[/name_f]
[name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]

I think [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] is a must-add.

Also:
[ul]

[/ul]

I used [name_f]Persephone[/name_f] and [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] ”
I can see why [name_f]Persephone[/name_f] isn’t an option when you love [name_m]Percival[/name_m]…I love the nn [name_u]Percy[/name_u] for a boy, my daughter’s nn is Sephy.
I would add [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]/[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] not sure which I’d pick …I like the x factor of one and the [name_m]Shakespeare[/name_m] factor of the other!
And [name_f]Isadora[/name_f] is lovely unfortunately for me my DH doesn’t like it ”

I would name sisters:

Antigone and Cyra
Cordelia and Diana
Guinevere and Cecilia
Hermione and Lorelai
Octavia and Cassia
Sibyl and Rose
Theodosia and Gwendolen

Add:

Cyra
Pandora
Lavender
Gwendoline/Gwendolen
Diana
Cynthia
Rose
Rosaline
Cecilia
Lucinda
Violetta
Rosemary
Cassia
Claudia
Florence
