New sibling for Wilhelmina and Leopold?

[CapCat]

Can't decide on name for baby #3
Which would you pick out of these two lists?

Girls

• Emmeline
• Tabitha
• Cordelia

Boys

• Emanuel
• Ernest
• Cecil

Ty

Love all your names. I would go for Cordelia and Ernest off those lists.

Thomasina would go beautifully but maybe too similar to Wilhelmina.

Wolfgang or Constanza.
Using Leopold unfortunately rules out Leopoldina.

Cordelia and Ernest

Cordelia!

I love Emmeline, it's my #1 girls name. Classy but not too popular at all!

Cecil is yucky sorry. Maybe Arthur, Henry or George?

Cosima and Otto...

Tabitha and Emanuel are my favourites x

Cordelia or Emanuel

Tabitha and Emanuel. Don't like Cecil.

From your lists Cordelia and Emmanuel.

If you're looking for suggestions Henrietta or Albert (Ina, Leo and Bertie is so cute!).

And since you've gone for Germanic and out-there already I'll throw in my all time favourite girls name Elfrida! (Had all boys so didn't have the opportunity to go for it myself!)

I love Ernest 😍

Another vote for Cordelia and Ernest. My daughter is called Cordelia!

Gorgeous names.

To the sharp pp - fed up with that attitude. If you are going to insult people do it properly - Waitrose is consistent with the names, M&S and avocados definitely not.

Any of the girls names - prefer Evangeline to Emmeline & suggested it for DD 2 but DH said no! I like Emanuel but not the others - the only one i know though is a Manny

Girls

• Emmeline
• Tabitha
• Cordelia

I like all 3! Especially Cordelia which is on our shortlist of 2 for our baby!!

Boys

• Emanuel
• Ernest
• Cecil

Hmmm I'm not so keen on your boy choices. I think Ernest is best.

Cordelia is my favourite of your girls names and I think Emanuel is actually a really great name. I see your first two children use nicknames and I think Manny would be really cute for Emanuel.

Is there any group of people that mumsmet actually like? You get slated if you like names that are considered working class, slated if your names are too posh, slated if they're double barrelled. They should just have a post with a list of names that are deemed acceptable and be done with the rest of the posts.

Cordelia and Emanuel.
Demelza
Cedric

Zilpha for a girl.

If you want unusual, Ian. There were no boys called Ian last year at all.

Chardonnay and Diesel ;)

Or Emmeline and Emanuel.

Ernestine is also quite nice for a girl :)

Outstanding names OP. If you're looking for something a little different, how about Ichabod? Ichabod Crane was the main character in Washington Irving's 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow' and a biblical name.

I think Nicholas or Alexander would go quite well with the distinctive Eastern European vibe and are lovely names that I would very happily use myself.

I would not use Cecil in case of being nicknamed Sissy though it is a fine name otherwise. Emanuel is a beautiful name.

I like the meaning of Ernest and also The Importance is my favourite play. I would think this would be a connection for many people, and the child would go through life having Wilde quoted at him. There are certainly worse things, but I imagine you could get tired of that.

I like Emmeline. It could be a celebration of 100 years of votes for women, for a child conceived and/or born in 2018.

I think Cordelia's story was very sad and not sure about Tabitha and its possible nicknames. Tabby?

Cecilia or Cecily might be an alternative, pretty and unusual? (perhaps not if you plan to name a sibling Ernest or Gwendolyn)

Congratulations on the pregnancy and wishing you well.

Emmeline and Emanuel, nn Manu. But really, are you aspiring to be accepted into the Belgium aristocracy?

First glance I thought the name Ty didn't really go with the rest

I love Tabitha and best of the boys is Ernest .

Since Wilhelmina was queen of the Netherlands and Leopold was king of Belgium, I suggest to go with another European royal name.

Philippe
Astrid
Albert
Laurant
Eleonore
Beatrice
Maxima
Alexia
Amalia
Letizia
Sofia
Elizabeth
William
George
Charles
Marghrete
Felix
Nicolai
Isabella
Marius
Ingrid
Bernhard

Cordelia.
All the boys names are terrible imo. You could have Montgomery or Winston but I would rather have John than anything on your list. Poor boy!!!
