Sister for Mabel

We’ve recently found out we’re expecting another girl, but struggling with a name. There’s just none I love as much as I did with Mabel’s name. I want to keep the name a secret so stying to not discuss it with family/friends.

My husband and I quite like the name Rose or Rosa. Our surname is boys names, 1 syllable starting with G.

What do you think of the name Rose/ Rosa?!

Also love Rosa

I prefer Rosa to Rose but both are nice.

If you’re still looking I think Eadie or Iris would compliment Mable nicely.

I’m in your boat. Fell in love with Mabel.. now struggling to find one I like as much! DP would like a name that starts with M to keep the flow, something like Mabel and Maggie.. but I’m not sure on Maggie tbh.

My list is:
Penelope (Penny)
Aubrey
Winnie
Edith
Vivienne
Margo.

Trying to stick to the old-name theme if we can but I’m running out of choice!

Rosa is lovely. Olive was the first name that came to mind.

ShuddaBeenMe · 15/08/2021 14:38

Pearl or Violet or Sylvia go I think.

How about kitty as its kind of old time but yet plain and nice and classy

Hollywolly1 · 15/08/2021 14:45

Annie is good to,I think steer clear of names starting with M

Enko · 15/08/2021 14:55

Rosa is lovely. I thought Nancy or Daphne when I saw the title

LadyCarolineDester · 15/08/2021 15:32

Mabel goes naturally with Florence, Ella and Violet in my world, because those are the names of adjacent streets in my neighbourhood.
