Girl's name to go with Tom?

41 replies

Mum2T · 14/03/2010 09:56

Need help with a girl's name to go with Tom (Thomas) We've got the boy's name sorted, William if it's a little brother.
I really wanted to avoid anything ending in an 'ee' sound, like Daisy, Lily, Emily, Sophie...as my surname ends like this.
Thinking of Elizabeth and Harriet as potential middle names and really like traditional Victorian girls names.
Suggestions please!

I think Alice would go well

Children are individuals and shouldn't be tailored into sets or pairs.
It truly doesn't matter if the names don't "go" together, just pick a name you like.

The Thomas's I know have sisters called Rebecca.
