Desperate for name suggestions to go with siblings Jesse and Annelise

Expecting DC3 very very soon but me & partner are still struggling to find names we love, as we already have used our favourite boy & girl names and it feels like nothing will live up to them! We currently have Jesse and Annelise — will not know gender of DC3 until their birth — any suggestions along these vibes welcome!

I don’t have specific suggestions but as your first two have 2 letters the same, it would be nice to follow the same pattern

Alfonse

Eloise

If you think yooneek spellings are lovely, then you do you.

Seriously. Read the post below my reply.

Both are the spellings. Both derive from the Hebrew name.

Being rider doesn’t make you right when you’ve been told you’re wrong!

@TheVeryAngryBanana , They're not particularly Dutch. Jesse is from the Bible and Annelise is of Danish origin.

They're both names you commonly meet in NL though, unlike in the UK. Since she apparently shares tastes with Dutch parents, it seemed a good place to start l. Annelise is pretty ordinary everywhere Germanic

They're both Dutch names, so that gives you somewhere to start. Marlies, Mattijs, Stefan, Sabine, Mirthe

Lorelei

Jude

itsgettingweird · 13/06/2026 20:17

And a quick google would confirm both can be used and both stem from Hebrew and the bible.

But i guess that wouldn’t give you a feeling of being so smug in correctly correcting people 😉
