Following on from my other thread I've amended my name choices.
I'd appreciate help/advice on which is nicest.
Middle name would be Jean (named for my nana I can't compromise on this).
I'm half Korean so have picked some Korean names too this time as well. I could add the Korean name as another middle name after my nanas though:
Bae
Chin-Sun
Minji
Moon
So-Ok
Sailor
Ember
Cherry
Magnolia
Bronte
Sage
Venus
Yes I've ditched Apricot & taken on board some of the advice you ladies have given me I appreciate it x

With the ever rising popularity of K-POP, the younger generation will probably be more familiar with Korean names 💙

Another vote for Azalea here! Along the same lines as some of your suggestions.

I like Ember, Sage and Sailor Smile Also Story from your other thread. Might Maple be an option? Heard it once and thought it was lovely.

@ValkyrieVik

PLEASE DONT NAME YOUR BABY MINJI!!

Apricot Jean come back - all is forgiven!! 😂 😂 😂

Lol!

Magnolia Jean isn't bad. Maggie as nickname.

I love Chin-Sun, Sailor, and also Azalea.

My DCs watched Sailor Moon years ago, happy memories...

What about Linden? I went to school with someone with this name. So Linden Jean? The short form of Lin is OK too I think. 🌹

Newestname002 · 17/03/2022 03:37

Also Brontë is a lovely name. 🌹

OP, are you due soon? I'm invested in this now and want to know what name you do actually go for Grin

SylvanianBunnies · 29/03/2022 01:38

I know I am commenting pretty late, but if you are going for a Korean name, please don't choose anything other than Chin-sun from your list. Bae is more of a surname, Minji is too common and a generation or two older, Sook is for ladies in her 60s. I assume you got the names from a British app/website? I found them super far from actual Korean naming conventions. I recommend taking a look at a Korean website with some help from Google Translate.

I really like the word sakura in Japanese as a name, I don't know what the Korean word for it would be.

Cherry Jean sounds like Billie Jean
