Which do you prefer as sib to Reed and Claire?

Due in another month with #3 and we don’t know what we’re having. Our son is [name]Reed[/name] [name]Douglas[/name] and daughter is [name]Claire[/name] [name]Annika[/name]. Names on our list if its a girl include:

[name]Catherine[/name] [name]Olivia[/name]
[name]Samantha[/name] [name]Kate[/name]
[name]Ella[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]

Our last name is two-syllable and ends in -er.

Which do you prefer?

Or other suggestions? We’re very undecided at this time. I’m finding it so hard to name a 3rd!!!

[name]Samantha[/name] is adorable! <3 I like Catherine as well, but you already have Claire (I don’t like two of the same first initial), and Ella is alright … actually, looking at it now, Ella is probably the best one for the sibset. I just really like Samantha Kate!

[name]Catherine[/name] [name]Olivia[/name] is my fav, but [name]Ella[/name] [name]Josephine[/name] might work better with our sibset, unless you might call her [name]Kate[/name]?

My thoughts, too. If you call her [name]Kate[/name] and spell it with a K, that would be my choice. Or [name]Katie[/name], etc.

Yes, [name]Kate[/name] is a definite NN choice!

What about [name]Kate[/name] [name]Olivia[/name]?

I think [name]Samantha[/name] ([name]Sam[/name], [name]Mandy[/name]) works best with [name]Claire[/name] and [name]Reed[/name]. [name]Catherine[/name] seems too traditional to fit with [name]Reed[/name] ([name]Cait[/name] and [name]Reed[/name] goes, but then that doesn’t seem to fit with [name]Claire[/name]).

[name]Reed[/name], [name]Claire[/name], and [name]Samantha[/name] is my choice.

[name]Ella[/name] [name]Josephine[/name] is beautiful, although personally I prefer [name]Elle[/name] and think [name]Elle[/name] [name]Josephine[/name] would be lovely.

I like [name]Samatha[/name] [name]Kate[/name] too, or [name]Kate[/name] [name]Samantha[/name], [name]Kate[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]?

[name]Catherine[/name] [name]Olivia[/name] is the only one not doing it for me sorry! Good luck :slight_smile:

First off, I love all three. You have amazing taste in names!
[name]Catherine[/name] is out for me. It starts with a C like [name]Claire[/name] and it has the er sound like your last name which wouldn’t sound good.
So it’s between [name]Ella[/name] and [name]Samantha[/name]. I think either would be great.
[name]Samantha[/name]'s full name would have a better flow, because it has a three syllable name, a two syllable name, and a one syllable name.
[name]Ella[/name] might go better because it’s shorter like [name]Claire[/name] and [name]Reed[/name].
On the other hand, [name]Sam[/name] would be short enough to go with the sib set.

[name]Ella[/name] [name]Josephine[/name] and [name]Samantha[/name] [name]Kate[/name] are both great names and you couldn’t go wrong with either of them. My advice would be to choose the one that means the most to you. Good luck!

[name]Catherine[/name] [name]Olivia[/name] is my favorite solely so you could call her [name]Kate[/name]. [name]Kate[/name] & [name]Claire[/name] are gorgeous together! If you’re not planning on calling her [name]Kate[/name], my vote would be for [name]Ella[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]!

[name]Samantha[/name] is a little bland compared to the others, imho!

Best wishes!

[name]Ella[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]

I love [name]Samantha[/name] [name]Kate[/name], but agree with others that [name]Ella[/name] may work better with the sib-set.

Have you thought about [name]Ella[/name] [name]Kate[/name]? I think that would work well and I love the flow.

I think [name]Samantha[/name] goes best with your other names.

I think [name]Samantha[/name] [name]Kate[/name] is really nice! It’s easily recognizable but not ridiculously popular for today’s kids.
