Names for baby 3

21 replies

TwinMamaPlus1 · 15/09/2018 21:42

I’m 26weeks pregnant with baby number 3, our twins were born at 33weeks so we feel like we need to be ready soon with a name! Our boys are called Joshua & Reuben. We have our boys name set already (Elijah) but we have no idea on girls names whatsoever! We have a couple we like but none we love. We seem to favour more traditional girls names so names we like are Charlotte, Martha, Sophia, Edith, Elsie but none of them jump out at us. Any ideas for similar names?

Love Elijah, and love Martha.

What about Mabel?
Julia?
Stella?

Hanna goes nicely with Joshua and Reuben.

Maybe Eliza for a girl? Unless you were saving Elijah for a future boy.

I think Delilah suits them names.Goes well

TwinMamaPlus1 · 15/09/2018 23:59

Wow! Lots of suggestions, some we’d not even thought of. I will put them to my DH tomorrow & see what he thinks. Some names listed I like but we have close family/friends with children named those.
Phoebe has been suggested by nearly everyone & it’s my favourite girls name but DH hates it! :(

I think Martha sits very nicely with your other names.

TwinMamaPlus1 · 16/09/2018 09:37

I absolutely love Martha but DH isn’t keen, he loves Charlotte but I’m not keen. Have shown this thread to DH & we’ve manged to pull a few that we both quite like

Hannah
Louisa
Matilda
Rebekah

We both like Megan, Isabelle & Emilia but my goddaughter is Megan, her sister is Isabelle & I have a cousin with an Emilia. So they’re all out. We both come from big families where most of our cousins have children so a lot of names are out already. We also both really like Elizabeth but my aunt is Elizabeth & now a cousin has named her daughter Elizabeth too.

Hannah goes very well too, or maybe Rachel.

TwinMamaPlus1 · 16/09/2018 15:33

I can’t use Rachel - my ex-boss was Rachael & she was a vile human being so no way could I use it for my baby!!
