We have a ds called Jonah.

Please help us choose a sibling name as we just can't decide. Current favourites are:
Elijah, Caleb, Isaac, Luke/Luka/Lucas
Lydia, Tabitha, Rose (Rosie), Matilda.

Open to any other suggestions as well. Thanks!

All lovely names. I would tend to avoid two sounds at the end of Jonah and your chosen name that sound the same. All the boys names would work but for me only Rosie works. The other girls names are lovely but end in A.

ChocolateCrunch · 20/09/2017 08:24

From your list, I like Caleb and Tabitha best

SuperBeagle · 20/09/2017 08:55

I like Caleb and Lucas.

And I like all of the girls names except Lydia. I'd probably choose Matilda though.

17caterpillars1mouse · 20/09/2017 09:37

Jonah and Caleb sound best. I'd avoid Elijah and Luka. Elias maybe?

I like Lydia best from your girls list

DuggeeHugs · 20/09/2017 09:52

caffelatte100 · 20/09/2017 09:58

I love Matilda. I would love to use it but my brother got in there first with his dog.

Isaac hands down for a boy.

Rose/Rosie lovely for a girl.

I really dislike the name Matilda; there are simply too many little 'Tillies' around now. I love Rosie, though and think it sounds lovely with Jonah. What about Kate/Katie?

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 24/09/2017 19:29

From your 'boy' choices I think I like Caleb best. David sounds nice with Jonah too.

Babyblues14 · 24/09/2017 19:30

Elijah and Rosie x
