Sister for Jennifer

62 replies

We have a Jennifer (known as Jenny)

Currently expecting another baby but we don't know the sex.

What would you expect her sister to be called? Looking for ideas and suggestions.

My current favourite is Annabelle (Anna)

Thanks Smile

Not Annabel

Rosalind goes well.

Anna, however, is a gorgeous name. Strong, classic, straightforward, not posh, not common, not faddy.

Anna could conduct a bus, or an orchestra, or a coup d'etat, and she'd do them all with aplomb.

Jennifer is a lovely name, hope it comes back to popularity soon, same with Jessica.

Anna is very nice too, I would use it by itself. The only longer name I can think of with Anna as a nickname is Annabel/Anneliese. If I had a Jennifer I’d call her sisters Hannah and Bethany. I think they go together.

Annabelle, Annabel, Arabella, Annabella - LOADS around in my DD's school. I prefer the nn Bella personally but a lot of them are Annie or Anna.

How about
Marianne
Annaliese
Lianne
Roseanne
Anneke

I once knew a girl called Cerianne, with a hard "C" which was pretty, perhaps made up.

I'm a Jennifer Elizabeth and my sister is Rebecca Katherine.

I have a Jennifer too! Not many around. If we had another girl, I would have called her Elsie (short for Elizabeth).

My very first thought was Annabel, followed by Christa.
