Name for Amelie’s sister

[AnnaM247]

Hi everyone,

My DH and I are struggling to find a name for our little girl and would appreciate some name suggestions that we may not have thought of! I lean towards more traditional names but DH prefers more unique names (DD1 would have been Amelia but DH felt this was too popular when she was born in 2015).

We are open to any suggestions, our surname begins with an m so probably want to avoid m names.

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for your suggestions, there’s some lovely names here which we haven’t mentioned before, so maybe something we both like!

I love Elsie (was my great grandmas name). Violet and Sylvie but DH finds them old lady names unfortunately.

Francesca and Evelyn are two we have spoken about that we both like but not sure they are the one yet.

I think names that go with Amelie are:-

Sophie
Lucy
Evlyn (alternative spelling)
Emilia
Isobel
Erin (my DDs name 😉)
Isla

[Sugarpiehoneyeye]

Amelie and Sienna
Amelie and Imogen
Amelie and Cayla

[ellalouise90]

Heidi
Hattie
Dolly
Delilah
Maggie
Thea

I feel like these names are still quite traditional with a unique twist 😄

[SazCat]

We have a Jessica and I like Amelie for if we had another girl. I think they go together well.

Kitty
Molly

I love the suggestion above of Flora so would go for Fleur.

How about

Lara
Isabelle
Eloise
Gabrielle
Carina

I would probably go for something else which could be French.

Sophie
Lucie

Delphine
Florence
Marie
Beatrice

Bronte, Cassandra, Coralie, Delphi, Ebony, Effie, Eden, Giselle, Honor, Iona, Lyra, Noelle, Rowena, Rosina, Saffron, Saskia, Tamsin, Verity, Zia

Thanks for all the additional suggestions :)

Manic I think your post sums up my DH and I really well! I like all your traditional names whilst he would want one from the unique list, which I think are pretty but a little too unusual for me to use.

He did suggest Zoe last night, which I quite like. I know it won’t be to everyone’s taste, but can you see any obvious disadvantages of using this name? Am I right in assuming most people in the UK would be able to pronounce this as Zo-Ee rather than Zo as I wouldn’t want to spell it with a y?

Didn’t realise the problems we would have with pronouncitation and spelling of Amelie, so keen to avoid similar issues this time!

Thanks

[InkSnail]

Yes, it's a well known name and will be pronounced Zo-ee

[roseblossom75]

I think Amelie & Esme go beautifully together.
Or Amelie & Clara

[midsomermurderess]

Sophie. They seem of a kind.

[Bubblesoup]

Zoe is really pretty and goes well with Amelie.

Otherwise, names that might be a compromise?.....
Lara
Tabitha
Tara
Zara
Sadie
Mara
Kiara
Giselle
