Sister name for Cassia?

32 replies

Latenighttalks · 20/12/2025 10:36

Hi :)

We have a two year old daughter named Cassia, we’re due a second daughter at the end of January and could do with some help!

We have some names in the running:

  • Gianna (Gia)
  • Nara
  • Elara

Do anybody have any name suggestions similar to Cassia that we may like?
All suggestions are appreciated:)

Julia or Natalya or Aphra
Or if you want it to have the same letter Cecelia or Ciara

Eloise is the first name that sprung to mind.

I would stay away from another ending in an A sound.

Cassia and Ebony
Cassia and Leonie

Acacia is pretty.
Cassia is a beautiful name. You could go for another spice name as Cassia is cinnamon…what about Anise?

Jessamine - an unusual botanical name like Cassia (it’s a variation of Jasmine). Jessie and Cassie would be very cute together.

Other ideas- maybe Gaia (Earth Goddess), Ianthe (Violet flower), Briony or Rosamund/Rosalind? Or Juliet or Verity fit in style imo even though they aren’t botanical/nature linked.

Ianthe is a great one

Also Athene or Athena

One Cassia I know has sisters called Isabella and Phoebe. The other Cassia has a sister called Maisie.

God I'd be really fed up if I were Maisie.. it's a bit basic in comparison

theunbreakablecleopatrajones · 22/12/2025 12:15

I love Cassia !

Gianna is v nice, though I'm not mad about Gia. I don't like the other two, they both sound a bit made up, Elara is a bit Disney Princess and Nara like an acronym - it is in fact the US archives..

If you want another 'ah' ending

Estella
Allegra
Fernanda
Paloma
Philippa (Pippa)
Serena
Seraphina
Susannah
Rosanna
Dorothea (Dora)
Isadora
Zara
Lara
Flora
Ida
Oona

If not..

Verity
Ismene (Iz-me-ne)
Felicity
Cecily
Persephone
Raphaelle
Genevieve
Marianne
Christabel
Juliet
Eloise
Daphne
Cecile
Sylvie
Inez
Clio
Jasmine
