Henry as a brother for Arabella?

[Penny139]

Thoughts on this? Would a longer boy's name be a better match for Arabella? Other suggestions welcome (I prefer more traditional names). Thanks!

I like Henry and think it works well with Arabella, I don't think a longer name is necessary.

Some other suggestions:

William
George
Edward
Thomas
Sebastian
Daniel

I think Henry sounds great with Arabella.
I like all of ralinax's suggestions with Arabella. Also suggest Hugo or James.

Love Henry and I would say that it goes very well with Arabella

I love the names together, lovely choices.

I like the name. If you do then go for it. I don't understand why names have to "go with" each other. Children are individuals not a double act.

I think it's fine! We felt like we needed names with equal syllables but consequently it's quite a mouthful saying both names! Think if they were the same sex it would be more important to have equal length. Eg is you had Arabella and Jane, Jane might feel quite short changed!

I think they work well

Thanks everyone! That makes me feel more confident about it. By the way, I really like some of the other names suggested but they have each been ruled out for one reason or another. Thanks again!

Goes really well. Love Henry
