Sibling for Matilda

[lauraslops]

Hello,
We are currently trying for baby number 2 and I am already name obsessed! (always been very name obsessed)
We have a daughter who is Matilda Hazel and have picked out the following names and was just after some opinions.

Delilah Rose
Rosalie Iris

Noah John Stephen (family middle names)

Thank you

I'm currently pregnant and intend to call the baby Matilda if it's a girl.

We named our son Marlow.

I love Delilah and Noah. It is popular as it's ranking higher and higher, but it's so lovely I don't think it matters (Noah I mean)

Could you have an Iris Rosalie?

Rosalie Iris

Thank you. We are saddened by how popular Noah is but I don't actually know a single Noah which helps and it's the only boys name we both love.

We were hoping for a longer first name for girl to match with Matilda so probably wouldn't consider Iris as the first name.

I'm glad you have chosen Matilda. I think it's a lovely timeless name and we are often complimented on her name.

Matilda Hazel and Rosalie Heather.
I like Delilah Rose, or Harriet Wilow.

First of all, I love the name Matilda Hazel - that is gorgeous!

Noah is a lovely boys names, it may be popular in rankings but like you I've not met a boy with this name.

As for a girls name, both Rosalie and Delilah are beautiful but I think I slightly prefer Delilah Rose.

I quite like Delilah.

Not a big fan of Rosalie, but the only Rose name I like is Rose.

Some others you might like:
Amelia / Emilia
Catherine
Dahlia
Emmeline
Eloise
Eleanor / Elinor
Freya
Hannah
Juliet
Jemima
Josephine
Lillian
Lucinda
Tabitha

Henry
Arthur

Harriet
Beatrice

I'm not wild about either Delilah or Rosalie, Delilah because of the bible story and Rosalie just seems a bit overly cute, though it's pretty enough. I don't think either of them particularly goes with Matilda. Rose is very nice. Tabitha? Edith? Agnes? Rosalind? Rosamund?

O think Matilda and Delilah go well together.

How about something like Jemima/Josephine/Cleo/Clementine/Viola/Beatrice

Thank you so much. We picked Matilda's name as soon as I found out I was pregnant and we are still so happy with it. She is usually Tilda or Tilly unless she is being a pickle!

Charlotte

I like girls names to have a nickname/shortened version so she has some options. Matilda is usually Tilly or Tilda.
Rosalie would become Rose and Delilah would be Lilah.

I love Tabitha and think it sounds wonderful with Matilda but I don't like any of the nicknames that go with Tabitha. Same with Clementine.

I love Eleanor but my its my sister in law's name and I think it would cause some family issues as there are 4 sister in laws altogether lol

I also like the name Emily (Milly) but my partner thinks it is a little plain to go next to Matilda.

Names are definitely harder once you have a sibling!

I have a Mathilda. Her older sister is Alicia.

The 'name that got away' for me is Joan, my grandmother's name & one which fits nicely with the whole 'strong' vibe . I would have loved to have a Joan !

The Matildas I know have brothers Oliver and Dominic.

I love Matilda and Noah.

I also think Tabitha is fab with Matilda but saw you don't like the nicknames.

I don't like Delilah. Prefer Rose to Rosalie - think you may get spelling issues but if you would use Rose anyway....

Millicent (Milly) may match better than Emily?

Elizabeth (Libby or Lizzie)

Charlotte (Lottie)

Philippa (Pippa)

Arabella (Bella)

I like Millicent, but now my partner has pointed out that a Tilly and a Milly might be a bit much.
I really like Arabella and was really pushing for that before I fell in love with Delilah but partner doesnt like the way it sounds.

I adore Matilda but I’m afraid I’m not a fan on Delilah or Rosalie and I strongly dislike Iris. Noah is ok but incredibly popular.
I like the suggest of Harriet Willow.
I quite like Meredith, Merry as nn.

Boys names- I’ve gone off piste with these suggestions!!
Douglas
Alaister
Angus

😂😂😂😂😂. Yes Tilly and Milly may be a bit much!!

Tabitha
Tamsyn

Jonah
Jonas
Eli

To me Alice goes well with Matilda. Or maybe Isabelle.
