For sylabble name to go with first 4 DC

[CatInTheVat]

Have name changed for this so I can share my DC's names without outing myself.

Our first four DC are:
Elizabeth (Eliza)
Dorothea (Dora)
Maximilian (Max)
Iolanthe (lo)

If it's a boy we are stuck except maybe Alexander (nn Sacha).

If it's a girl we are considering Felicity (but what nn?), Esmerelda (nn Esme) or Antonia (nn Nina).

Don't call a boy sasha!
Felicity could be fliss or lissy

Does it definitely have to be four syllables, as doesn't Lolanthe have three?? Sorry being picky but there are loads of nice three syllable ones so it makes a difference...!

You could call your boy Anders as a NN

And why not call a boy Sacha, vince? I know a male Sacha, but no females.... Although you could also consider Sander/Xander?

Fliss or Flick are short for felicity - I know a Fliss!

Flick for Felicity

Xand (Zaarnd) as NN for Alexander?
Sebastian, NN Bas

Felicity NN Flic
Victoria NN Vicci, Tory
Katerina NN Kitty

Sebastian

Iolanthe starts with an I and is pronounced "eye-o-lanth-e". So they are all four sylabble.

Gabriella (Gaby)

Celestina (Cici)

Montgomery NN Monty

Sebastian is nice. Alexandra for a girl?

Araminta - Minty
Antigone - Tiggy
Penelope - Penny or Nelly
Persephone - Sephy

Montgomery - Monty
Sebastian - Sebby or Tian

Don't call him Alexander - too many around and Sacha is not a good nickname if you are in the UK - too many girls called Sasha. Try Xander or Sandy if you must.

Olivia - Livvie
Emelia - Emmie, Melie

Cecilia?

Boys are tricky, I'll have a think

Oh I like Inigo. but its only 3 syllables. I knew one once and his nickname was Go-go! I quite like Monty from Montgomery. Alexander shortened to Anders is a good thought too.

What do people think of Antonia nn Nina?

OK, cool cat!

So I googled it and there are actually Loads (I love baby naming!!)!

How about Dorothea - Dot
Anastasia - Stasha
Gabriella - Gabby

Zachariah - Zac
Zebediah - Zeb
Archimedes - Archi

Zachariah nn Zac
Jedidiah nn Jed

I think Zachariah goes really well with Maximilian.

Eeek - I have a Dorothea already! But it's a great name.

I quite like Zeb! So pleased people are finding boys names I had not thought of.

Nina isn't an obvious diminutive of Antonia. I think people would just think her full name was Nina.

Antonia is usually shortened to Toni, but I knew a girl who called herself Anto, which was nice.

Sebastian is really lovely and matches your other children's names well, my friend had a Sebastian and his nn is either seb or sometimes they call him bash

Oh so you do.... Recalled Dora and didn't think!

Catalina - Cat

Obediah - Obi
Nathanial - Nate
Montgomery - Monty
Alexavier - Xav

Nathaniel is nice.

I love ophelia for a girl, not sure about a nn though
