We haven’t found out the gender yet so we’re looking at both!
Currently our boys names are:
Noah Indigo Gale
Freddie River Gale
Freddie Flynn Gale
Jasper Indigo Gale
Fynn River Gale
Alfie James Gale

And our girls names are:
Autumn Rose Gale
Dahlia Mae Gale
Mabel Rose Gale

Which do you like the best and do you have any other suggestions?

I think Jasper Indigo Gale is a great name!

I am really caught on this one! Seems to be some mixed opinions about it which puts me off a little but I really do love it!

You can't use Noah it sounds like a Knock knock joke.

Nor Autumn as others have already said
nor Mabel. (Just try saying Mabel Gale).

Nor Fynn

you need to look more carefully at first name last name combinations without the middle name, as that's what they'll go through school as

indigo is feminine to me.& expect him to get the nickname Jig.

Jasper Indigo Gale and Mabel Rose Gale are lovely.

Maybe as alternatives -
Jasper James Gale
Jasper George Gale

Mabel Grace Gale
Mabel Marjorie Gale

I like double initials...

I don’t think Mabel Gale sounds bad! But I am glad to have other opinions as I have been caught on this one and Jasper Indigo…

Sounds like a weather forecast, sorry!

Better with James as the middle name i think.

Tuxmittens · 01/06/2026 15:30

My partner loves Liliana, it’s one he found himself and is the first one he seems genuinely interested in (for the girls). I’m still not sold on it though! I’m hung up on Mabel Rose

OP posts:
Tuxmittens · 01/06/2026 18:55

Liliana Mabel-Rose Gale? My partner also has two middle names so to us this doesn’t feel like too much, but I’m curious as to what others think about it? Better with or without the hyphen?

OP posts:
JuneJoys · 01/06/2026 19:19

Much better without the hyphen.

Tuxmittens · 01/06/2026 19:29

That’s what I think! But chat gpt said with is better

Even more reason to ditch the hyphen 🤣🤣

I can see that! But tbh I am trying to gather opinions everywhere I can now before I hard launch the name to the world

It’s over used and a bit chavvy

JuneJoys · 01/06/2026 19:39

Beachbeachbaby · 01/06/2026 19:35

Nice.

i think either spelling will do the job & tbh no one actually uses their middle name(s) much anyway 🤣

NancyMeyers · 01/06/2026 19:42

I love one of the suggestions made up thread: Greta Rose Gale. Sounds like film star! Fantastic. Also, if you like Indigo, can I suggest Violet? And Peony because you like Rose.

MiddleAgedDread · 01/06/2026 19:44

Autumn Gale 😂😂 love a bit of windy weather in October!!

mamaduckbone · 01/06/2026 19:44

Jasper Indigo and Mabel Rose flow the best I think, although Noah is my favourite overall. Noah Flynn?

MeekSqueak · 01/06/2026 19:44

Autumn Gale!!! Please don’t.

Freddy and Xander are nice.

And I prefer Delia, Celia or Tallia.

patermemater · 01/06/2026 19:48

jasper and Mabel are my favourite
