Boys names: Charlie or Zach
Girls names: Evie, Grace or Jasmine

Ps I am NOT a so called chav...DH and I have been togther forever, both work full time in the city and own our home...just so you know cos I get the feeling Liberty could be seen as a "porn" star name!!

I love the name Liberty, I think it's really pretty.

Out of your list I was drawn to Grace first, but after reading through all the abuse you got I suddenly realised that in the film Miss Congeniality there is a (tongue in cheek) song that goes "she's beauty and she's grace, she's Miss United States..."

So I think Jasmine.

Out of your boys names I normally like Charlie but I think Zach sounds best with Liberty.

Personally I don't think it has to be one syllable but I think a name that doesn't end in "ie" or "y" is best to go with it.

I think Liberty and Charlie or Liberty and Jasmine. There is something rather cool about the name Liberty, imo. It's such an important concept for one thing.

I really like Liberty.

what about Delphine? Libby and Delphi?

loobylu3 · 17/07/2009 15:24

Was going to suggest India too but I seem somebody else already has. I think it goes v well.

pranma · 17/07/2009 15:18

I like it my cousins daughter has a girl named Liberty and her sister is Seren Grace

slyandgobbo · 17/07/2009 15:11

I think it's a great name.
Raffaella
Raphael
Gabriel
Cosmo
Inigo
Jago
I think these go well.

ihavenosecrets · 17/07/2009 15:10

I have always liked Liberty and don't think it is chav at all!

I think India or Jasmine go with Liberty. For a boy I think Beckett or Rafferty sounds cool.

Bettymum · 17/07/2009 15:07

Liberty and Jasmine

Liberty and Charlie

sound lovely

actually so does Liberty and Zach.
Not so keen on Liberty and Evie.

chamoiscreased · 17/07/2009 14:28

Constance?
Faith?
Hope?

loobylu3 · 17/07/2009 13:38

Oh, dear, that was really unfair!
I actually think it's really pretty. All the girlie choices go well. How about:

Flora
Violet
Maya
Isla
Delphi
Arianna
Kitty
Dulcie
Ivy

I'm not too good with boy's names. Prefer Charlie of the two. How about:

Monty
Jack
Ned
Theo
Otto...

Any good?

DS1's schoolfriend Scarlett has a sister called Liberty, if that helps at all!

Thank you to all those that were kind.

My DD1 is called Liberty, Libby for short, and I was looking for some friendly advice to help with the next dd or ds.

I now know why I generally hate these sites as its full of women who judge people without knowning anything about them! As for the name Liberty being American and "pants" I think you will find it's latin and that "Life in a Liberty Bodice" is a wonderful collection of short stories from yorkshire about childhood...we are not all uneducated you know

Many thanx to all x

Liberty, Egality and Fraternity

Agree that a 'similar' style name would work well, such as Amity, Felicity or Grace.

ConstantlyCooking · 17/07/2009 09:43

can't resist suggesting
egalite and fraternite

But seriously if you have one unusual name would you be better with something unusual for dc2 such as autumn, summer, or follow the Puritan idea of naming for virtues another noun such as charity, felicity, grace etc

Bumperslucious · 17/07/2009 09:19

Aww, I wanted to say Belle

Anyway, I wouldn't worry too much about finding a name to 'go with' an existing name, I don't think that matters too much, as long as they don't rhyme (I know a Darren and Karen), and, um, I trying to think but I can't think of any names that might rhyme with Liberty

Grace would be nice, similar in that Grace is a Virtue and while Liberty isn't a Virtue it's a descriptive name IYSWIM?

MamaLazarou · 17/07/2009 09:19

Sorry - that was really horrible of me. My sincere apologies.

Cies · 17/07/2009 09:08

I knew two sisters called Liberty and Amity.

I think all of your options are nice.

ScummyMummy · 17/07/2009 09:06

Do you already have a daughter called Liberty and want to know what to call her sister/brother? Or are you considering calling a yet to be born child Liberty and looking for a middle name?

Spidermama · 17/07/2009 08:58

It needs to be a one syllable name.
How about Jo?

bedjumper · 17/07/2009 08:56

aw dont be mean, the child is already called liberty!
a name that would go with your curent childs name well is zach for a boy or grace for a girl i would say.
