Sister for Beatrix?

Hi everyone!

We don't know the sex but there was a fab recent thread from someone asking for suggestions for a brother for Beatrix, so I've saved that one!

Can anyone help out with girls names please? I sort of like Seren/Ophelia/Aurelia/Delilah but not enough to use and my OH isn't keen on any. ARGH!

Thankyou 😁

@Junibug yes was it your boy thread recently ive saved for inspo? 😀 I like both your choices! We have a very 'T' heavy surname putting me off matilda but I guess Beatrix is kind of harsh sounding anyway and we went for it. It's so hard picking something to complement the first name, and I just think Beatrix is so lovely that anything else is a poor second haha

We have a Beatrix! If we had another girl she'd be either Matilda or Clementine. However I also think these names go well...

Delilah
Juniper
Cordelia
Tabitha
Penelope
Margot

Alexandra or Saskia or Olive

If I had a Beatrix I would say "I love you so much I gave you a name with a kiss in it."

So, I would want to do the same for a sibling.

Alexandra also has an x in it to symbolise a kiss.

Saskia uses the letters needed to spell "a kiss" (plus an extra a).

Olive is an anagram of I love.

For a brother, Alexander, Felix, Hugo/ Hugh or Miles. Alexander has the x for a kiss. Felix does too. Plus Felix means happy / lucky. Hugo and Hugh have "Hug" in them - Hugh is more unusual out of the two - Lastly, Miles is an anagram of Smile.
