Final brainstorm for a sister for Louisa

41 replies

DD2 due in 3 weeks! We have a potential list of 4 names but I just want to make sure I'm not missing something before we decide that's definitely our final list. So I'd love to hear the names that spring to your minds when you think of a sister for Louisa! Be interesting to see if any of our possible names are mentioned!
Thank you!

Louisa and Zoe works really well
Louisa and Clara (as you said above)
Louisa and Polly
Louisa and Daisy
Louisa and Merryn
Louisa and Beatrice
Louisa and Genevieve

Actually I generally thing names that don't end in -a sound better paired with Louisa.

Good Luck!

The Louisa I know has a sister named Natalia.

My first thought was Cicely or Cecily - to me it has a similar feel, but sounds entirely different.

I also thought Marianne, Susannah or Constance.

Caitlin or Caitlyn

Something completely different to Louisa. So

Kate
Tess
Francis
Mary
Zoe
Phoebe
Clementine
Daphne

Don't go for a name with two or three syllables ending with an A, that would be so boring!

Thanks 2boys2girls, Clara has actually been on and off our list about 4 times! But I think I'm going to revisit it again actually as it is lovely and sounds so nice with Louisa. just have to convince dh to reconsider it too!

Louisa is so lovely I would try and match it with classic name again, where as ruby is lovely and so is Megan I think ssome things missing from them ... Lara I do not like sorry, now Clara is beautiful sibset pn like car rather than Clare, in fact most "a" ending names will go lovely

Sophronia · 01/04/2015 18:18

I like Kate, Isabella and Lara from your list, not so keen on Megan or Ruby.

Thanks everyone, very interesting!
2boys2girls got one of our choices which is Isabella and Leeds2 got another which is Megan! The other 2 haven't been mentioned which Im not sure is a good thing?! They are Lara (I like matchy names too GettingEggyWithIt!) and Ruby.
Most of the names suggested have been on our list at some point! And there's a good few we can't use as used already by family and friends, such as Emily, Sophia, Anna, Sarah, Jessica, Ellen, Jane, Rachel.
A couple of people have suggested Catherine/Katherine which I do love but it's my middle name but I'm starting to think about Kate possibly as another name to add to our list. I love Violet too and Meredith actually but DH doesn't! Think his faves at mo are Lara and Ruby. I'm finding it hard to pinpoint mine, it seems to change on a daily basis, which is somewhat worrying at this late stage!
