@namelover218–

I continue to be surprised at your vigor. Four days after birthing twins, likely three days after filling out their birth certificates, likely 2 days after returning home, nursing and caring for two newborns who doubtless are not yet on the same schedule, with three other children (two of them preschool age) in the home… to be thinking about names again is very impressive.

14

[name]Ah[/name], my top ten :slight_smile: recently decided upon, currently middle name-less (although I am working hard to make combos), it stills seems so incomplete to me. I’ll give you my first names and the possible nicknames that we’ve come up with.

[name]Scarlett[/name] - no nickname really, we love [name]Scarlett[/name] too much
[name]Camille[/name] - possible [name]Mimi[/name], but definitely not [name]Cammie[/name]
[name]Harlow[/name] - probably just [name]Harlow[/name], I like it quite a bit
[name]Esme[/name] - too short for nickname, except maybe [name]May[/name]
[name]Maeve[/name] - we love the nickname [name]Evie[/name] for this
[name]Romilly[/name] - more than likely [name]Milly[/name] or [name]Mimi[/name], not a fan of [name]Romy[/name]
[name]Blythe[/name] - no nickname needed, way too short for one, haha
[name]Amelia[/name] - [name]Mimi[/name], MAYBE [name]Mia[/name]
[name]Eliza[/name] - cant really think of one as its already kind of a nickname itself
[name]Imogen[/name] - the boyfriend likes Imma, maybe [name]Immy[/name]. I’m more of a fan of [name]Gen[/name]

[name]Hugo[/name] - no nickname, too handsome (and short)
[name]Theodore[/name] - [name]Theo[/name], of course. Maybe [name]Teddy[/name] (but just for me)
[name]Ezra[/name] - too short
[name]Otto[/name] - too short again
[name]Wilder[/name] - I’ve seen [name]Wylie[/name] as a nickname for this and I kind of like that
[name]Felix[/name] - cant even think of a nickname for this
[name]Jasper[/name] - I’ve seen [name]Perry[/name], but Im not sure I like that. Probably no nickname
[name]Finlay[/name] - [name]Finn[/name], of course. I love [name]Finn[/name].
[name]Jameson[/name] - probably [name]Jamie[/name]. I adore [name]Jamie[/name], dont like [name]James[/name] on its on really
[name]Miles[/name] - [name]Milo[/name] more than likely. I have a deep love for [name]Milo[/name].

I’ll probably update when I’ve decided on combos. Then my list will be more substantial.

I have a huge list of names, but have a terrible time ranking them and coming up with combinations, especially when considering my
partner’s likes and dislikes (it’s mostly dislikes!), working with a difficult last name (it’s a noun, a verb & and adjective!) and making sure that they “go” with my son’s name – [name]Leo[/name].

boys
::: in alphabetical order

adrian
alexander << such a handsome name, but will be relegated to the MN spot in all likelihood.
cedric
digby << i’m definitely in the minority in liking this name enough to bestow it as a first. partner thought i was joking…
felix << love it, partner doesn’t
leif << avoiding repeating initials
heath
ronan
ulysses << partner dislikes, i MIGHT be able to get away with it in the middle!
winston

girls
::: in alphabetical order

aroha << partner thinks it’s too ethnic for us, we are NZers, but not Maori
blythe
daphne
elsie << partner not a fan, it was my grandma’s middle name, so may yet have a chance
fern
naomi
ophelia
thisbe << i waffle on this one, it starts looking like two seperate words, “this” “be”, and with a noun last name…gets weird
veda
zuleika << probably would only use in the middle

I’m not entirely pleased with the above list, it is by no means definitive and definitely not set in stone. I think when it comes time
to name the next baby I may just need the full 9 months to sort it out!

Haha, defintely a name freak! :slight_smile: Unfortunately, the twins aren’t home yet though. [name]Scarlett[/name] should hopfully be coming home today or tomorrow and [name]Murphy[/name] is sadly still not breathing or eating properly and so will be staying in NICU for a little while longer. :frowning:
