Sister for Charlotte Sophia?

[Lydialoveday]

Hi,
DD1 is Charlotte Sophia. I like nice elegant classic sounding names. Me and Dh however don’t really agree or see eye to eye with names. I’m looking for something that works well or is similar to her name.
So far my husband and I can only agree on:

Hannah- but perhaps too dated?
Anna- but too formal?

Or maybe go a different direction and pick a different sort of classic...
Like :

Nina?
May?
Zara?

Should I go for a traditional name? Or more like modern classic...can’t really see what suits with Charlotte Sophia.

Thanks

Alexandra, Annabel, Helena, Louisa, Susanna?

Isabella, Anabele, Juliette

Eloise, Flora, Lucinda, Marianne?

I have a Charlotte and my 2nd born was going to be Elizabeth if female (I got a boy).

Jemima, Tessa, Verity, Victoria?

Thanks for the suggestions. What are your thoughts on the names I suggested above? Or start from scratch?

Alexandra or Helena

You may as well keep names on your list until you have more of a sense of the direction you want to go in. But if you don’t like them enough, cross them off!

A few more ideas:

Beatrice, Katherine, Sasha, Zoe

I love Charlotte. I think both Anna and Hannah go beautifully with Charlotte, both classic. I love the nn Annie on a little one.

I don't feel like your other suggestions compare with Charlotte. They are all nice names but don't have that classic feel IMO. Zara reminds me of the shop, May is too short, Nina is OK.

Love Nina and Zara but think Anna would probably go nicest with Charlotte

Charlotte and Annabel sound lovely together.

Annabel Nina is cute!

I love the name Hannah (nicest on your list)

Alana
Amelia

Frances is lovely (imo!)

Nina is a lovely underused name imo..
May is very middle name...boring..
Zara is nice , wouldn’t say it screams “classic”

Ideas...
Florence
Clara
Cara

My two daughters are called Charlotte & Sophia (Isabella & Rose middle names).

DC3 is a boy, but some of the girls names we considered then were Annabelle, Annaliese, Alexandra, and my favourite, Mirabelle /Mirabella.

How about Annastasia, clasic and elegant and you can have Anna for short.

Emmeline
Elspeth
Xanthe

I like Anna

Louisa

Yumsnet

My two daughters are called Charlotte & Sophia (Isabella & Rose middle names).*

Those names really go well together.
So in your family OP it could be Charlotte Sophia and Isabella Rose

Anna/Hannah sound fab with Charlotte.
Anna/Hannah Rose
Anna/Hannah Beth
Hannah/Anna Lucy
Hannah/Anna Grace
Hannah/Anna Jane
Hannah/Anna Louise
Hannah/Anna Maude

I think Hannah, Anna, May and Zara would all be lovely with sister Charlotte. All of these are good, but my favourites are Anna and May. Anna is a timeless and elegant name, and May is beautiful and fresh (used a lot as a middle name but not much as a first). I'm not as keen on Nina as it's not as strong and traditional.

So while some lovely other names have been suggested I think you have 4 strong contenders already.

I like all of your names above. I don't think Zara sounds that nice with Charlotte though.
