Little sister names?

[heateallthebuns]

We already have boys with traditional classic (some might say boring) names James, Edward, William, Richard type thing.

Expecting a girl. What name should we go for? I like:

Isobel
Imogen
Elinor
Lilian
Imogen
Isolde
Iseult
Beatrice
Violet
Elsie
Evelyn
Iris
Leonora
Leonore

I like Isobel, Imogen, Evelyn and Beatrice. I also like Eleanor but not so keen on Elinor, not sure why.

Would the weirdness be decreased by using Nell day to day with Elinor just for formal things?

Iseult is lovely.

How about
Cassandra
Celine
Ariadne
Leonie

I love Iris as I have one. We considered Violet too so from your list I would say those are my favourites 😁

@TatianaLarina In the UK you would pronounce Isolde with the ‘uh’ sound at the end. The German may be the same, but I was referring to PPs question to prinounciation...not heritage.

Nope - the point is that Isolde is a German name. In the U.K. you have the choice of pronouncing it the German or the French way. The emphasis on the e is entirely German.

Heritage is directly relevant to pronunciation.

You put Imogen on your list twice? Maybe this is the name???

Elizabeth
Marianne
Emma
Harriet
Emily

Evelyn is a gorgeous name
