Juniper and ?

Sister name for Juniper. Have the following list, DH and I can't agree on much! He likes semi-nature themed but not too matchy with Juniper (nn Juni) and I like some of the more vintage/classic names. Current list is May and Fern but struggling with middle names as they are both one syllable. I liked Alexandra as a middle but they are veoted. Could not bother with a middle but my eldest has the same middle as me and feel bad not giving the new baby a middle.

May
Fern

Others on my shortlist are Faye, Robin, Chloe, Elodie.

Any other ideas or help with middles very welcome!
(Names I love but DH doesn't are things like Harriet, Tabitha, Thea)

I love the idea of Juniper and Wren.
Both were my nicknames when I was younger, as both are associated with my real name.

Me too. My Dad used to play that record to me when I was five!
I loved it as it had my name in it - Jennifer not Juniper.

If eldest has your middle name you better choose a meaningful/family middle for new baby or they will feel like an afterthought!

Juniper and Mariette?

I heard a lovely name today -Bunty
Not sure if it's short for something else

LBFseBrom · 19/05/2023 00:58

Bunty is a term of endearment and means 'playful', also means 'plump'. I think it is a childish name and few grown women would be happy with it. Along with 'Wendy', you rarely hear it nowadays, thankfully. I used to a comic called the 'Bunty' as a child.

May is so bland against Juniper.

Juniper is the popular girl at school, she's a little bit wild but in a climbing trees and standing up to the bikes kind of way.

May is just say in the corner with her head in a book.

Marielle is pretty. And now delicate than Juniper but she's the one whom nurse the birds back to life in their little cardboard box and sings to the wind
