Girl and boy name to go with Ella and Amelie?

[marchblossom]

Have huge mega lists and feel like I've exhausted every name possible. Current DDs Ella and Amelie and need a boy or girl name for third DC on the way :)

I like slightly unusual/'hipster' names (Ella was unusual 10 yrs ago!!) but simple to spell/say and pretty. For a boy I tend to lean towards the Hebrew names like Noah etc, but would love something a little more unusual. For example; I like Bodhi but I know I won't convince my husband ! No J names due to surname.

@Pandoraphile it is such a beautiful name but much too close with the El start for my liking. So many good suggestions, thanks all!

@WhereIsBlueRabbit your boys list is my list haha! Plus Nathaniel...that is really in the running now...I never considered it before due to having a Nathan in the family, but if I keep thinking like this every name would be taken! My friends and family have good name taste

Sabine (French pronunciation - Sa-been)
Ingrid (to keep up with vowel initials)

Really like Coralie though

And Reuben

@ProlificLurker Reuben and Sabine are my original top 2! :) Do you not think Coralie is too matchy with Amelie?! I absolutely love it but not sure when I sound them all together.

Clarisse?

Iris

Or

Felix

How strange @marchblossom - Sabine came into my head as soon as I read the thread title.

I think Coralie and Amelie are quite similar but you could get away with it as they start so differently. (May be slightly biased as myself, siblings and cousins almost all had names ending in an ‘a’ sound and it was a bit of a family ‘thing’ )

My OH suggested Emily. I don’t think he was paying attention.

Pearl
Gabriel

I think I mis-read Amelie for Amelia, hence my Coralie suggestion.

This is hard!

Maria?

I really love Zara for a girl. I think it's a very girly yet strong name somehow :)

We are 3 weeks off having dc2 and I'm so stuck with names. Ella is on our top 2 of girls, which I see you have!
For boys we have Theo as dc1. Not sure what you think of this?
On our list for dc2 we have Isaac, Jake and Oliver. Really struggling to find names we like that aren't massively common!

Seth and Cora
