Names to go with Iris & Imogen (not beginning with I!)

45 replies

I’ve got two girls, Iris and Imogen, now a few weeks off having 3rd baby (don’t know the gender) and just can’t find any names we both love this time.

Last time we chose Imogen just because we liked it, definitely don’t want another starting with ‘I’ or it’s going to get way too confusing.

I like names that aren’t totally out there - everyone has heard of them but hopefully there won’t be three in each class! These are the types of names on our list so far...

Elliot
Rex
Evan

Polly
Naomi
Zoe
Lucy
Xanthe (actually love this but it just doesn’t sound right with surname)

All help appreciated!!

Funny that you say that, that’s Imogen’s middle name!

I really like a lot of the names on your list! Evan and Elliot are my two top boys names! I think both go nicely

Also love Lucy and Zoe!

Thanks everyone, I really like some of these suggestions and also seeing reactions to the list I feel a bit more confident about some of our top choices too. Learnt the hard way about sharing name ideas with family and friends the last two times, so I’m keeping quiet with them, but it is nice to get other people’s reactions.

I think Naomi and Zoe might be my front runners now, was just worried that they might be a bit dated names of the 80’s?? (coming from me who has another v.popular name of kids born in the 80’s!)
