Sibling for Henrietta and Matilda

62 replies

We have a Henrietta (Hettie) and Matilda (Tilly), they are mostly known by their nicknames, apart from at nursery. Any ideas for a name for their sibling (gender unknown). Thanks so much.

I love the name Tabitha, it was one of the top 3 if we'd had a girl.

MyBuggyIsOutToGetMe · 26/10/2022 23:11

For a girl, my first thought was Arabella but I’d also consider continuing the historic queens theme:

Isabella
Eleanor
Elizabeth
Charlotte

All go with your other girls’ names (I LOVE Henrietta!) and all have equally great nickname potential. Although I appreciate some may be too popular for you.

You seem to have a bit of a theme of Queen Consorts with Henrietta and Matilda, so why not keep that going with Alexandra, Adelaide or Philippa.

Thanks so much again.

We have added Rupert to our boys list. I really like Rupert.

I do like Evelyn (Evie and variations of) and Olivia - they are on our list - but I am put off by how popular they are and this will probably mean it's unlikely we would go for them.
