Our final shortlist

[pixieloux]

Me again. We now have a top 3 boys list and top 5 girls list - getting closer! Which do you like/think fits best (as we’ve struggled to narrow it down to this let alone any further lol) We’ll have Aurora (Rora), Theo(dore), Violet (Letty), ...

Elijah Rafferty, Rowan or Tadhg (Tige) & Frances Clíodhna (Clee-Uh-Na)

Sebastian Tadhg &
Beatrix Róisín
Cecily Róisín
Edith Iona (Eye-Oh-Na)
Frances Clíodhna
Penelope Cara or Róisín

Zachary Tadhg & Frances Clíodhna

We want to avoid using matchy names as they’re already going to share so much. I guess our style is traditional yet still being used today. We also like names that allow for the use of diminutives - I love that our LO’s names allow them to choose from a few too. They all have Irish middle names too. Thanks!

Sebastian Tadgh and Beatrix Róisín. Beautiful. (I'm not keen on Edith or Frances.) Seb and Bea. Perfect.

Elijah Rowan and Frances Clíodhna

Zachary Tadgh and Frances Cliodhna.

I'll be honest, I'm struggling to see which are the 3 boys names and 5 girls names you're asking about. I count 6 boys names?

Zachary and Frances for me.

Elijah, Sebastian & Zachary
Beatrix, Cecily, Edith, Frances & Penelope.

The rest are middle names.

Oooh okay now it makes sense!

I love Elijah. Like Sebastian a lot. Not a huge fan of Zachary.
I love Beatrix and like Frances. Not a fan of the other three.

Elijah & Cecily or Sebastian & Beatrix 💕

Sebastian and Beatrix. Cecilly is great too.

Sebastian and Beatrix.
Gorgeous!

Cecily Roisin is beautiful.

I’ve realised I didn’t post the pronunication of Róisín, just in case anyone needs it! It’s Ro-Sheen. I feel like it’s quite a well known Irish name though.

Thanks for the feedback so far everyone!

Sebastian and Penelope

I'm not keen on Frances, i feel like it's just a bit too old fashioned and doesn't fit as well with your other kids names ?

So for that reason I'd say Sebastian & Beatrix or Sebastian & Penelope (Seen & Bea or Seb & Penny, too cute !)

Sebastian and Frances

Sebastian and Cecily

Elijah and Beatrix

Sebastian and Beatrix

Sebastian and Beatrix or Edith

Seb and Bea or Seb and Edie 😍

All 3 of those names were on my short list, DH won the battle though and we have little Niamh 😍

@Thetimehascometo Niamh is our youngest’s middle name :)

Sebastian and Beatrix (unless you'd reconsider Roisin as a first name. I love Roisin but can't use it)

I think it would be a bit strange to have one with a very Irish name and not the others lol. They all have Irish middles so these fit in with the theme lol.
