Surprise Baby needs a name

64 replies

Hello!

We already have three daughter´s which were all conceived via ICSI. This baby was conceived naturally and we are still surprised especially because I am already 42.

Isadora = Gift of the moon; *2011
Estella = Star; *2015 (twin of Marisol)
Marisol = Loved sun child; *2015 (twin of Estella)

This pregnancy is a total surprise and we now know it is a boy. We always thought that our children were given us from heaven and because of that we would love a name that goes with the siblings names nicely.

Thanks in advance

Adriel means ‘God sent’.

I actually like this suggestion, I think it goes well with the other names.

Many congratulations @78Helena! Another vote for Cosmo here 😄 Also, there is a lovely thread running for older pregnant Mums, which I'll link. Really supportive and welcoming.

@Happenchance

Jovian or Jovan. Which both mean father of the sky and form of Jove from Jupiter.
I like those

Gabriel is a beautiful Name. Michael is our Nephew.

Orion is a name I do not like
Benedict is on the list now
Asher does not really fit
Dorothea I still feel unsure about it

What about Asher which means blessing or fortunate. I think that would go lovely with your other children's names!

PrincessSarene · 22/08/2020 12:38

What about Orion to follow the sky/star theme?

TheSeasideSlide · 22/08/2020 12:35

Dorothea (Girl) / Theodore (Boy) - same meaning - gift from God

Fishfingersandwichplease · 22/08/2020 12:34

I would go for Gabriel - love it!

Sallyspoons · 22/08/2020 12:34

Benedict means “blessing”

Twisique · 22/08/2020 12:30

Helios
