Hello, expecting baby #5 (sex unknown) and a bit stuck for names!
We’re Catholic and so far our pattern has been fairly “classic” but not too popular first name + saint’s name (usually a bit more unusual) + family name.
If this one’s a boy, we’re pretty set on Ignatius Paul for the middle names. First name ideas so far: Samuel/Samson (which), Robin, Oliver (too popular?), Isaac, Julian.
Totally stuck for girls! We’ve had three girls already so feel like so many good names are already taken. I quite fancy Fidelma for the saint’s name (Irish), but husband is less sure and it is pretty unusual. Family name could be Jane, Mary or Iris. Any ideas for first names? Our current daughters are Ellen/Nell, Orla and Daphne, we quite like Bethan or Betsan but we’re not remotely Welsh, would that be strange? Otherwise we do like Emma, Sophie, Cate, Lucy/Lucia, Freya, Phoebe... but they all feel a bit uninspiring, maybe I’ve just got naming fatigue after so many girls.
Love to hear any thoughts and suggestions, thank you.
