Here is our list of girl names. I don’t particularly love any as much as I love our boy names, so more suggestions or options are also welcome!! We are looking for something not too popular but also somewhat classic sounding, or something that we can pair well with a very classic name. Our boy names are [name_u]Jules[/name_u] [name_m]Langston[/name_m], [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] [name_m]Chester[/name_m], and [name_m]Warren[/name_m] [name_m]Briggs[/name_m] (family names in the middle slot).
Names we’ve paired:
-Azalea [name_u]Sawyer[/name_u]
-Violet [name_f]Cambria[/name_f] or [name_f]Cambria[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] (hesitate bc the popularity of [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and I don’t love shortened options for Cambria)
-Daisy [name_u]Adler[/name_u] (worry [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] is too cutesy)
-Augustina [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] (August would be what she goes by, [name_f]Augustina[/name_f] is in honor of a grandmother and husband dislikes Augusta)
-Augustina [name_f]Judith[/name_f] (August)
-Sabrina [name_u]Carlisle[/name_u]
Names we really like but have trouble pairing with another name:
-Juniper (worry this won’t age well and [name_u]June[/name_u] is too close to [name_u]Jules[/name_u], which we love)
-Iris
-Naomi
-Fern
-Eve
-Noelle
-Zelda (want to use for a middle name)
-Briar
-Alice
-Phoebe (close friend just used this so I think it’s unfortunately out of the running)
I like a lot of these, though with some rearrangements
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_u]Adler[/name_u] would probably be a favourite. Also
[name_f]Azalea[/name_f] [name_f]Judith[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_u]Carlisle[/name_u]
[name_f]Naomi[/name_f] [name_f]Zelda[/name_f]
[name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] [name_f]Eve[/name_f]
[name_f]Zelda[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f]
Agree that I’m not the biggest fan of [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] (for the reasons you cite) but it really works with [name_u]Adler[/name_u]. However, in general, you really don’t get too much wear out of middle names so you have to LOVE the first as well as the combo.
We really, really like the suggestion [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] [name_f]Zelda[/name_f] and I love [name_f]Fern[/name_f] [name_f]Annabel[/name_f] but husband doesn’t like [name_f]Annabel[/name_f]. Definitely in the flavor or vibe we like though!! Thank you for the suggestions.
Follow up: my husband is half Greek but we will likely have very blonde children thanks to my genes. Is [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] culturally appropriate? I have seen feelings towards certain names like [name_f]Samara[/name_f] shift recently so I do want to be respectful too. I love [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] and do think it’s classic but want to make sure!
I reckon [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] wears across cultures… Think [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] [name_u]Campbell[/name_u] on the one hand, [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] [name_f]Osaka[/name_f] (the Japanese name has a separate meaning), and [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] Klein. Then there’s the silent film actress [name_f]Naomi[/name_f] Childers (very fair).
You have some lovely options, I especially love Violet Cambria. I wonder if you’d consider Hazel Augustina the other way around, I find it has better flow, and Hazel pairs nicely with your boy names.
Some other suggestions:
Ruby Zelda
Maren Carlisle
Cecilia Adler
We have thought of [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] [name_f]Augustina[/name_f] and would probably go with it but I know SO MANY little Hazels now. I can’t decide if the popularity of the name ruins it for me or not.
I like [name_f]Azalea[/name_f] [name_u]Sawyer[/name_u] (especially Sawyer),Daisy Adler(I don’t think that it’s too cutesy) and [name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] [name_u]Carlisle[/name_u]
I don’t like [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Cambria[/name_f] (Cambria reminds me a bit of Cammembert cheese or a mix of Cambridge and Columbia,Bria would be cute through ) and I think [name_f]Violet[/name_f] is cute but overused in my opinion),Augustina [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] ,I don’t like either (I personally think [name_f]Augustina[/name_f] is too old fashioned ,and your child probably wouldn’t like it ,I would probably use it as middle name ),I‘m a big fan of [name_u]August[/name_u] through I think that’s a beautiful,bold and unique ,I would use it as first name and I personally don’t like [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] ,but you can’t go wrong with that,same goes for [name_f]Augustina[/name_f] [name_f]Judith[/name_f]

[name_u]Briar[/name_u] (especially with the middle name Rose),Naomi,Noelle,Sabrina,August ,Juniper (I don’t think that it’s too similar)and [name_f]Eve[/name_f] are my favourites
Violet and Daisy are lovely, and whilst I don’t like Augustine, I love August on its own (more for a boy but it’s fantastic on a girl too). Would you consider just using August considering that’s what you’d call her? I can’t say I love the middles but that’s just personal taste - there’s really nothing wrong with them.
Of your other options I adore Juniper, Iris and Fern and am also a fan of Zelda, Alice and Phoebe. Here are some middle options for you:
Juniper Maeve
Juniper Liv
Juniper Astrid
Juniper Mabel
Juniper Zelda
Alice Marlowe
Alice Flora
Alice Beatrix
Alice Clover
Alice Ruby
Unfortunately, it sounds like Phoebe is out of the running. Re Juniper, I don’t necessarily see why it wouldn’t age well. Yes, it’s sweet and quirky, but no more so than, say, Clementine, which is one of my favourites and which I’ve encountered on adults before (and it works perfectly well).
The greater issue is how close Jules and June are however you could always use Juni or Juno as a nickname instead. I suppose they’re still close but maybe a tad less so being two syllables rather than one (as Jules is)? I don’t know - it’s a tough one.

Azalea Sawyer - fresh, floral and modern

-Augustina Hazel - intriguing and classt
-Augustina Judith (August) - I prefer Hazel
-Sabrina Carlisle - bright and bubbly. I love Carlisle
-Juniper - I do love this, though it is close to Jules. Maybe Pippa as a nick name
-Iris - sharp and bright
-Naomi -classic and lovely
-Fern - warm and earthy
-Eve -sleek and strong
-Noelle - warm and distinct
-Zelda -sharp and interesting
