Willow Ivy, Willow Caroline

So after considering [name_f]Ada[/name_f] and [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] to the point of name fatigue (lol) I started to dislike how [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] rhymes with my dogs name, [name_f]Fiona[/name_f]. And [name_f]Ada[/name_f] started to feel short but is still in the running for sure. So [name_m]Ive[/name_m] come back to one of my original favorites, [name_u]Willow[/name_u]!

[name_m]Ive[/name_m] done a poll on this in the Quick poll but wanted to give some background too. Both [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] are linked to family. [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] is linked to a few people including my mother. [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] is linked to my husband, he’s a 4th! Actually my husband really likes [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] as a first but I don’t love it as much, right now anyway. I love both these names as middles and Im not bothered that both [name_u]Willow[/name_u] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] are technically plants :joy:

So what do you think about [name_u]Willow[/name_u] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] and [name_u]Willow[/name_u] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]?

Bonus: Sibling names??

I prefer Willow Caroline! It’s very gentle and sweet. I’m not personally a fan of the double plant name in Willow Ivy, but I do like the way it sounds and that it honors your partner! I think if I personally used Ivy in this situation, I’d go with Caroline Ivy or Ivy Caroline

I like both of the combo picks you have. I want to add Willow Delta as a suggestion.

I also don’t like the two plant names together, but luckily [name_u]Willow[/name_u] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] is just lovely!

Also I love both [name_f]Fiona[/name_f] and [name_f]Ramona[/name_f]! (Though I understand why having used one you aren’t inclined to use the other.)

Some others you might like as Willow’s siblings:

[name_u]Rowan[/name_u]
[name_f]Georgia[/name_f]
[name_f]Isla[/name_f]
[name_f]Freya[/name_f]
[name_f]Norah[/name_f]

I do like it but unsure about two middle names! It’s pretty much unheard of where I live.

I think I’d probably pick [name_u]Willow[/name_u] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] over [name_u]Willow[/name_u] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]. I think having two plant names would be a bit much for me - it’d be a little different if it was something like [name_u]Willow[/name_u] [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] (which means from the Forest) vs having two literal plant names.

If you like [name_u]Willow[/name_u], would you maybe also like [name_f]Willa[/name_f]? It has more of the vintage vibe that [name_f]Ada[/name_f] and [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] have and [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] is a great combo!!

I like [name_u]Willow[/name_u] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]! It sounds like [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] could be a contender in the future. So if it’s a name you may want to use down the road I say don’t use it as a middle name for now and wait to see. [name_u]Willow[/name_u] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] sounds very elegant and classic.

I prefer ivy to go with willow however if you’re still considering ada I would go with [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] because it goes with willow and [name_f]Ada[/name_f] whereas ada ivy doesn’t sound great (in my opinion). Also if you think it feels too short you can spell it ayda. [name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps
