What You'd Really Name Your Nine

Girl Names
1

For some reason (OCD? Baby grief? Closure?), I’ve felt since having my unborn children (having them in heaven), I’ve felt the need to solidify my next nine. Honestly. Like somehow I might wake up one day as a post child-bearing aged woman pregnant with implausibly conceived nonuplets. Only in our berry universe, right? :slight_smile:

Anyway, here they are. I can’t help but share them. And these aren’t my Cozumel/Lisbon/Turquoise names, but what I’d really call them. (Boys in their own thread tomorrow)
Thanks for providing a place to share.

Sandra Avonlea (Sande/Sands)
Rosamund Shirley (Romy)
Geneva Morning (Neva)
Esme Virginie (Essie/Ginnie)
Forsythia Pearl (Forsythe, Flossie, Sythia)
Guinevere Faye (Vera)
Araminta June (Minta)
Maryellen Garnet (Polly)
Freya Earhart (Eyre)

I’m so sorry for what you’ve experienced :broken_heart: these names are wonderful! It can be hard to find even one set of middle and first names that go together and here you’ve done it with nine! They sound beautifully as sisters :heart:

If I named nine daughters, I think I’d go with:

[name_f]Ada[/name_f] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u] [name_f]Madalena[/name_f]
[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f]
[name_f]Avalon[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Zinnia[/name_f] [name_u]Louise[/name_u]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Astoria[/name_f]
[name_f]Mary[/name_f] [name_f]Celestia[/name_f]
[name_f]Lilah[/name_f] [name_u]Juniper[/name_u]

Firstly I’m so sorry for what you have experienced baby loss is so horrible and to experience so many losses is just so cruel. I’m so sorry and I’m glad that nameberry has provided you with comfort. Honestly nameberry is definitely a great place to go when the world is a little tough :dove::dove:

From your list I absolutely adore [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f] [name_u]Shirley[/name_u], [name_f]Geneva[/name_f] [name_f]Morning[/name_f], [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] [name_f]Faye[/name_f] and [name_f]Freya[/name_f] [name_f]Earhart[/name_f] they are truly stunning.

I think today my nine would be…

[name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_f]Helena[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Clara[/name_f] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] Otema
[name_f]Eloise[/name_f] [name_f]Laura[/name_f] [name_f]Margaret[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] [name_f]Ann[/name_f]
[name_f]Sofia[/name_f] [name_f]Daina[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Marianne[/name_f] Lockhart
[name_f]Marina[/name_f] [name_f]Christabel[/name_f] [name_f]Edith[/name_f]
