Elizabeth, Catherine and...?

[knittedgoldfish]

We've found out we're expecting a third girl (!!) and we are really struggling for a name this time.

I like Constance but DH has vetoed. He wants Mary or Madeleine but I hate both.

Help us please!

Diana
Artemis
Mary-Rose

Susannah
Eleanor
Christine
Isabella

Claudia
Tamsin
Alexia
Deborah

Really like your classic names......would go for a different initial and still quite long (think I would wonder why got a short name like Emma ...) shame about Philippa as love pip nn

Millicent (amazing older lady I knew - if you were very lucky got to call her Mimi - if you tried Millie v hard stare...usually full name)

Georgina/Georgiana

Francesca

Victoria
Anne
Mary
Margaret

Jennifer

Mary was my first reaction

Eleanor, Charlotte, Alice, Harriet, Hannah, Emily, Emmeline

Although Charlotte is another C it is a different sound. Good luck - choosing names is hard!

Sarah would work beautifully with your other daughters’ names I think, and isn’t overused these days

@cantrip so agree Sarah would work really well. Can't think of the last time I heard it. Pretty nicknames like the other names too :)

Beatrice
Eleanor or Elinor
Alexandra
Jane
Susannah

Adelaide
Vivienne
Prudence (another virtue name. Love Constance btw)
Felicity

Anouska
Tatiana

Mabel
Harriet
Frances
Martha
Annabelle
Hannah
Abigail
Meredith
Florence
Imogen
Ingrid
Millicent

Grace

You seem to be going for a royal vibe. Victoria? Charlotte? Camilla?

Eleanor or Alice, surely with Elizabeth and Catherine?

Alexandra
Helen

Clementine?

Elizabeth, Catherine and Violet
Elizabeth, Catherine and Sophia
Elizabeth, Catherine and Persephone
Elizabeth, Catherine and Beatrice/Beatrix

Do sibling names necessarily have to "go together"?

My situation is slightly different as my kids would not all be "full" siblings but...I have two boys with my ex. He was old-school traditional and so our two boys have pretty traditional names. I do like their names. Ish!

My fiancé and I are considering a child together (he has no children). We have already discussed names and they are not common because we both like slightly quirky and he's half Welsh. I'm loving Iestyn (say "Yestin") for a boy and he likes Cerys for a girl.

I don't think if you really like a name that you should necessarily rule it out because it is not similar in style to your other children?

Louisa
Christine/Christina
Nancy
Annabel
Charlotte

Margaret
Victoria
Charlotte (Although I'd be reluctant to have two Miss C Smiths)
Mary and Anne are also classic names but much shorter than the others.

Alessandra

Do sibling names necessarily have to "go together

Well there’s no law to say so obviously. But if you’ve got a James and Henry or a George and William etc already and then have a son and call him Iestin personally I think it would be a little odd.
