Please help!
Our criteria...

Not overly keen on siblings with the same initial.

Needs to have lots of nickname options. Tabitha gets Taba Tatty Tats. Saskia gets Kiki or Sass.

Like the idea of this one also having a longish name.

Like them to be timeless. Not dating.

Current ones in the mix but not fully doing it for me...
Aurelia, Jemima, Aurora, Juniper, Elodie, Hermione, Indira (although people have said this doesn’t work on a probably blonde white British person! - we like Indie but not keen on India and don’t think Indigo or Indiana go with T and S)

Love Sadie, Blossom, Wren, Xanthe, Bonnie but they’re not in keeping....!!

Magda, Magdalena or Madeleine. I really think an "M" name goes with your others.

What about Calypso?

You could get Indie from something like Belinda or Rosalinda.

I think Xanthe works beautifully with those names.

Wow. Thank you guys!!
Can’t have Matilda Clementine Francesca Claudia Alexa due to close friends and family having these names...

There are hundreds of Jemimas were we live Hmm but I do agreee it’s a kinda obvious choice.

No one really commented on Indira?
I don’t like Belinda Rosalind etc

Hermione/Minnie? Just don’t love enough.

Loving new suggestions of Essie with Estella (Stella was my great grandmother)

I’m drawn to Juni - Juniper

Sad I’m never going to name this Baby!!

Damn I thought I'd cracked it with Leonie!

Estella is fab.

Hebenon · 12/01/2018 23:52

Cecilia.

Otherwise, Jemima is the really obvious choice.

MoreCheerfulMonica · 12/01/2018 23:55

Not another -a name. Three siblings with names ending in -a is just too much.
