A sister for Imogen

rubyred84 · 01/06/2018 07:03

We just can't decide on a name we love as much, that goes well. I think Verity 'goes' the best (but not our favourite), but both dh and I really love Ottilie. But does it 'go'? Nickname would be Ottie...can you imagine a 20/30/40 year old called Ottilie?

Imogen is such a unique name to us...suits a child and adult, strong yet feminine without sounding too cutesy....

A few other options we like below, does anyone else have any suggestions?

Clara
Verity
Ottilie
Briony (dh doesn't like it but I can't seem to take it off the list)

That's it! We are a bit stuck so any suggestions welcome!

Imogen and Annalise or Annalie?

I thought Clara when I read the title of your post. And then I saw it was on your list!

Glumglowworm · 01/06/2018 19:47

I really don’t like Ottilie

How about

Claudia
Hannah
Georgia
Freya
Thalia
Mila

The Imogen I know has a sister Phoebe.

susurration · 01/06/2018 19:32

I love Clara and like the suggestions of Emilia and Cecily too.

My favourite two sib-sets for Imogen are:

Imogen and Olivia (Immy and Livi)
Imogen and Martha (Immi and Mati)

Both six letter names, both lovely sets of sisters that I know.

Violet
Juliette
Phoebe
Rosalind

daisypond · 01/06/2018 19:07

I don't like Ottilie at all. But I like all the others. I'd probably put Verity at the top.

VioletCharlotte · 01/06/2018 18:53

I love the name Imogen... not so keen on Ottilie though, sorry!

How about -
Phoebe
Alice
Harriet
Charlotte
Emily
Felicity

Cyclingforcake · 01/06/2018 17:54

I think we’re going to go with Imogen. But other names on our list were
Clara
Aurora
Florence
Freya

All of which have been mentioned on this thread. Think I’ve found my people!

auntyflonono · 01/06/2018 17:51

Love Verity!

MiniAlphaBravo · 01/06/2018 17:50

Imogen and Cecily

IggyAce · 01/06/2018 16:32

I like Clara, but how about Evangeline or Rosalie.

EivissaSenorita · 01/06/2018 16:09

Maidie a lovely Scottish name not often heard

MinisterforCheekyFuckery · 01/06/2018 16:05

I don't like Ottilie (sorry) but Clara is beautiful and I think it goes very well with Imogen.

I would definitely go for 3 syllables again. I would suggest Miranda but I like Verity too.

TatianaLarina · 01/06/2018 09:58

Don’t understand the love for Ottilie.

Don’t think anything on the list goes that well with Imogen. Of the suggestions on this thread I like Aurora, Beatrice.

Phoebe? Viola? Venetia?

I think Ottilie works - if you love it, go for it. Also love Verity though and, as a pp suggested, Esme.
