Sibling name that goes with Christian?

37 replies

MuffinMouse · 06/12/2010 19:47

Please give suggestions for a sibing name to go with Christian and Isabella. We don't want trendy, and chose Isabella before it became massively popular - so not too 'common' popular would be good. We liked the Scandinavian association with Christian, as DH works/ed there a lot. Unisex names are def out, or anything that's very biblical eg Isaiah, Elijah etc - as it's too much with Christian IYSWIM. As are any names ending in ella.

3+ syllables works with our surname, - and our sibling names. Big thank-you for any help.

I think she means Fletcher Christian from Mutiny on the Bounty?

A bit high brow for me - I had to google it

My cousin had a Christian and when pg with DD, she always joked that she would call her Pagan!

She didn't though - she was a Georgia

Heidi for a girl, perhaps?

Peter might be good for a boy and not too common atm.

AllieW · 10/12/2010 09:37

Ok, just spotted your post, so only Heidi is applicable, therefore.

Naomi and Juliet are both beautiful and go with Christian and Isabella. I do see Juliet on MN a lot but in rl I only know of one and she'd be at school by now.

I like eloise but not with Isabella. Too many els and zzee sounds.

Just seen math's list for boys and I love it. Can I add Thaddeus to that list? It'd be right at home on that list..
I prefer Stanislas to Stanley. Nicholas would go really well with Christian (and Isabella).

Secretwishescometrue · 10/12/2010 11:31

Juliet my favourite :) its really beautiful and I think Christian, Isabella and Juliet go really well together! My second and third would be Annalise and Helena (great list btw)
