Sibling for Ophelia

So far I'm liking Astrid and Genevieve for girls.
Zephaniah for a boy.
There's not really many boys name I particularly like.

DD1 already has Josephine as a middle name so that's out.

Any suggestions gratefully received however Aurelia and Cordelia ahh no probably not, although beautiful, they're far too similar.

TIA

I like both Astrid and Genevieve, although I'm less keen on Zephaniah. You could continue the Shakespeare theme for another DC but without them being quite as obviously Shakespearean as the beautiful Ophelia.

Alexander (Xander?)
Abraham (Bram?)
Charles
Frederick
Nathaniel
Nicholas (Nico/Cole?)
Sebastian
Tobias? (Toby)
Edgar/Edmund/Edward
Cassius
Bertram
Ferdinand and Corin a bit more obvious but nice?

Not Shakespearean but Xavier, Gabriel, Maximilian, Lucian, Elias or Mathias?

Constance
Cassandra
Helena (Nell?)
Rosalind
Rosaline
Mariana (Marianne?)
Marina (Mina?)
Hermione
Diana
Katharina (Kit/Kitty?)
Iris
Jessica (Jecca?)
Miranda, Viola and Imogen a bit more obvious but nice?

Not Shakespearean but Larissa (Lara?), Verity, Madeleine, Serena, Christabel or Emmeline?

Of those suggested, I like
Cassius
Lucian

Larissa
Katharina
Christabel

Though you might want to avoid another 'a" at the end as they'll sound too similar.

The Ophelia I know has brothers Charlie and Felix

partyatthepalace · 15/03/2021 09:13

For a girl it might be nice not to have an a ending for variety, I like Astrid and Genevieve - there is also Marianne, Persephone, Rosalind/Rosamund, Madeleine, Verity, Christabel, Jasmine, Lucienne, Lois, Ines, Cecily, Frances, Hermione, Imogen, Emmeline, Eloise

Or for another a end then Clara, Stella/Estella, Cecelia/Celia, Honor, Leonora, Serena, Cassia, Diana, Miranda, Flora, Seraphina, Augusta, Viola, Julia, Alexandra, Emma, Laura

Boys - Lucian, Julius, Cassian, Alexander, Alistair, Raphael, Gabriel, Josiah, Elijah, Elisha, Joshua, Maximilian, Leonardo, Atticus, Francis, Sebastian, Benedict, Alberic, Jonathan, Dominic, Blaise, Guy, Hugh, Rafe, Lorne, Rollo, Marcus, Lucas, Gideon, Nathaniel, Tobias, Jeremiah, Noah

Unfortunately DH isn’t keen on Zephaniah either. Sad! I LOVE it. I also like Daniel and Thomas for boys.

One of Ophelia’s middle names is Josephine so that’s out unfortunately, but good suggestion! I always wonder what people mean by they wouldn’t be brave enough to use a name. I’ll use any name I like with absolutely zero F’s given Grin
