Sibling for Sophia

[bababeagle]

It is early days yet so we don't have a shortlist, but I would just like to get a few ideas for names for DC2. DD1 is Sophia. What do you think would go well with this? Girls' and boys' names please :)

Thanks

I love Lucy. For boys what about Harry or Dominic?

Lol can't have Dominic, as that was my FIL's joke name for my bump when I was pregnant with DD1 - he never did explain this!

Harry is out too, as he is my mum's springer spaniel.

Rufus...

Alice is nice and simple. Quite like it. HA - DH has just voiced his opinion "Living next door to Alice. Alice, Alice, who the f* is Alice?"

Alicia?? I'm pretty sure nobody lived next to her

Ronin or Reuben then if you've not got taste not taken to Rufus

Luke
Isaac
Howard
George
Zachary
James

Lucia
Mabel
Martha
Eloise
Beatrice
Alice

This name thing isn't easy - i am sure this is why human gestation is 9 months!

Reuben is ooook. I sound so fussy. I don't mean to be so negative!

Any thoughts on my shortlist? Oh - I like Julia but think 2 "ias" is maybe a bit rhymie?

Not Catherine or Charlie like the others

thanks. you don't think madeleine and meredith are too much with our kinda-soundie-likie surname?

They both have short nicknames you can use.

Phoebe
Eloise/a
Louisa

Edward
David
Elijah

amy
marnie
eilidh
kirsten
florence
holly

alex
thomas
angus
jonas
lewis
aiden

I like Madeleine 'Hutchinson' -- has a nice ring to it (hypothetically anyway). I also like Elsa very much.

Glad you think so. I really like madeleine but wouldn't want it to be a mouthful. I like the nn maddie too.

happy - how do you pronounce eilidh? i like thomas, nn tom

lonnie - i like phoebe, dh not keen

Baba - Eilidh rhymes with Hayley. It's a Scottish Gaelic name so the 'dh' is silent.

Thanks happy

So our shortlist is now as follows:

Madeleine
Elsa
Catherine (nn Cate/Kate)
Isobel

Thomas (nn Tom)
Charlie
Isaac - DH says no but 2 options just doesn't seem enough!

and James is a definite middle name if a boy.

Sophia and Sabrina

Sophia and Felix
