Sibling for Adam

DC2 is due imminently and we are still lost for names. The only other boy name we like is Evan but aren’t sure if that goes well with Adam?. For girls we like Nina and Cora. Any other suggestions?

Cora is beautiful!

cptartapp · 17/10/2021 16:53

My sibling to Adam is Luke.
Like Evan but wouldn't choose it, too similar.
Also liked Benjamin, James, William, Elias, Isaac, Zachary, Dominic, Marcus, Edward.

Evan is lovely.

Adam and Evan is a bit close to Adam and Eve?

Love Luke as a suggestion. I also love Matthew (we chose it but never got the chance to use it).

TurnUpTurnip · 17/10/2021 21:55

Adam and Evan (eve) nope!

Chunkymenrock · 17/10/2021 22:00

Cora just makes me think of corer (apple). How about Joshua for a boy? Cassia for a girl?

NameChange30 · 17/10/2021 22:09

Definitely not Evan!

James (was the first name that I thought of)
Jacob / Jake
Harry
Leo
Toby
Daniel

It needs to be something quite classic and unfussy I think.

rosemaryglows · 17/10/2021 22:23

I think for a boy we will go with Luke

WeDidntMeanToGoToSea · 17/10/2021 22:31

Luke is nice.

Now about Cara instead of Cora? Quite like Nina.
Lucy?

rosemaryglows · 17/10/2021 22:33

My grandads partner is called Kara so can’t have Cara. I don’t like Lucy very much either. Also considering Nora

OP posts:
Dustingiseasy · 17/10/2021 22:34

Adam and Evan want a too like Adam and Eve for me.

Benjamin?

WeDidntMeanToGoToSea · 17/10/2021 22:47

I can never decide whether I love Nora or strongly dislike it.

You seem to like short, unfussy names - Erin? Mary (perhaps too much of a religious theme going on there)? Lara? Beth? Rosa? Quite like a PP's suggestion of Stella - goes quite well somehow.

I think Nina and Cora are basically fine, though. especially Nina.

WeasilyPleased · 17/10/2021 22:55

Adam and Nina sound great.

rosemaryglows · 18/10/2021 06:44

I think we are going with Nina for a girl. Any opinions on the name Sean?

OP posts:
BeKindBeYou · 18/10/2021 06:56

I love Nina! ‘Adam & Nina’ lovely!

StampOnTheGround · 18/10/2021 07:08

I prefer Luke to Sean!

NameChange30 · 18/10/2021 08:06

I like Luke and Nina.

Not a fan of Sean.

Paul?

alpinerain · 18/10/2021 09:04

I love Nina.

Sean doesn’t go with Adam. Luke is better. How about John? It quite unusual these days.
