a brother or sister for Lucien?

[kaycat]

It's early days in the pregnancy, but seeing as our DS (aged 3) was registered a day late by the time we decided on his name, we are keen to avoid the naming stress again!!

Just to give you an idea of names I like, for boys I have always liked Gabriel, but husband doesn't. I also like Cassian, but this will be too much with Lucien I think.

Only have Clara and Delphine on the girl's shortlist so far.

All suggestions welcome....we named Lucien following a Mumsnet suggestion, so there is a good possibility we will find a name here again I hope!

Cassius
Quentin
Darius

Francis
Casper
Marcus
Nicholas

Cora
Helena
Artemis / Artemisia
Athene
Clea

I love Cassius and Quentin

Congratulations OP!

Cassian is lovely but I agree that it maybe isn't the best as it has such a similar sound to Lucien.

How about:
Caspar
Jude
Rex
Hugo
Milo
Cosmo
Etienne

Cora
Claudia
Blythe
Juno
Seren
Sylvie

Sorry - just realised Hatebeak already suggested both Caspar & Cora.

Love the name Lucien and think that these would go really well:

Clara
Florence
Athena

Quentin
Dominic
Gabriel

I love Lucien. If I had a DD, she'd be Lucienne.

For a brother, I like Linus, George or Emeric.

For a girl, Ghislaine, Esther or Severine.

showing my age now, but a sister for Lucien would have to be Carol.... (Liver Birds)

Conrad for a boy; Vashti for a girl.

Caspian

Martha
Clemency
Hebe

Ramona
Celia
Marcelle
Violetta

Felix
Florin
Bartholomew
Benedict

Forgot to say Cecily for a girl.

Some brilliant suggestions to get us started, thank you. Please keep them coming. Anjou pretty much all of the names you suggest are ones I like, and have been considering!

Interesting that Cassius has been mentioned a couple of times. I love it, but I am a bit worried that with Lucien it might be a bit Roman themed? Love Juno for a girl too. I also like Seraphina...one that I have only just remembered I like

Athena
Sayumi
Georgina
Isabella
Callisto
Juno

boys names
Mars
Ares
Apollo
Odin
Leonidus
Charon

I love the name of your ds, Lucien is fab. I have a Gabriel and Sebastian so similar taste A few ideas:

Boys names:

Sebastian (I'm biased!)
Rocco
Tobias
Benedict
Jude
Raphael
Fabian
Otto
Rufus
August (Gus)
Leander
Lawrence
Rupert

Girls names:
Cecily (2nded)
Genevieve
Elenora
Persephone
Viola
Romilly
Clara
Seraphina
Greta
Isolde
Christabel

I am loving your suggestions Lottystar, yes we do have very similar tastes! Have Serephina and Clara on the list already, but also putting Greta, Isolde, Rufus on (is Rufus getting too common though?). Have always liked August too, but I don't have the nerve and DH has vetoes anyway.

Alas, I have a good friend with a Sebastien so that is out...

I love Fabian, but is it too much with Lucien? They sound very similar in French I think, maybe not quite so much in English.

Like two of yours too Swangirl. Juno and Odin.

Thanks very much, please keep them coming!
