Names not ending with a vowel

38 replies

Margo34 · 12/11/2022 21:54

Name suggestions please for names that don't end with vowels or vowel sounds (so no names ending y either like Tommy for example). So far...

I like:
Sebastian
Benedict
Aubyn
Thomas

And:
Carys
Harriet

I have a few other name ideas but just trying to broaden ideas so far.

Thanks!

It's just the vowel sound more than anything, I hadn't thought of that, so your suggestions would fit. Thank you!

Could you clarify whether you mean a vowel sound or a letter that's a vowel?

Amber, Harper, Summer - all end in the consonant letter R but a vowel sound (schwa - 'er' in most UK accents is a vowel sound)

Emmeline, Justine, Catherine - all end in the vowel letter E but a consonant sound N

What about ends with a consonant sound but a vowel, like Evangeline, Emmeline etc.
