Sister for Anna. One of 3 names:

[JackFrostsMumma]

Elizabeth, Rose or Louisa.
Which do you think goes best with Anna?

Rose or Elizabeth. Louisa is too “ah” at the end. Like Anna

Not Elizabeth. Anna and Elizabeth seem a mouthful together. Others are lovely.

Rose or Elizabeth!

Elizabeth, with or without one of its many shortenings. Classic and beautiful.
Louisa is lovely too, but personally I wouldn't do "a" endings for both siblings.
Congratulations 😊

@fourelementary I have had the same thought. I really like Louise but DH less keen.

Thanks everyone! :)

They don't need to 'go'. Just pick your favourite.

Would you or DH like Eloise?

Family have suggested Eloise, Elodie, Jane and Lucy but we've vetoed all. I have a soft spot for Jane but it's not getting past DH.

Alice?

Rose

The other two are too much compared to Anna. Anna needs a sister like Kaye, Beth, Laura, Tara, Faith, nothing with 3 syllables

Grace
Emily
Ruth
Catherine
Claire
Rose
Juliet

Ah, I see. In that case, Rose. I'd agree another -a ending is problematic as is four syllables. Something short with a consonant at the beginning works, like Rose, Grace, Jess, Tess, Beth, Hope flows better or as a PP suggested, Alice. Or Lois.

Anna and Rose
Anna and Grace
Anna and Jess
Anna and Tess
Anna and Faith
Anna and Beth
Anna and Hope
Anna and Wren
Anna and Clare
Anna and Ruth
Anna and Raine

Anna and Alice
Anna and Lois
Anna and Seren
Anna and Catherine
Anna and Hazel
Anna and Mary
Anna and Frances
Anna and Beatrice
Anna and Helen
Anna and Imogen
Anna and Mabel
Anna and Isobel

All lovely names. I'd go with Louisa, then Elizabeth then Rose in order of preference, but any one of the three would be a good choice.

I’d go for rose but Elizabeth is great too!

Elizabeth or Louisa

I’d go for Louisa

From your three, I would pick Rose.

I'd pick Louisa but that's because I have one and she's wonderful 😁 she was nearly Elizabeth so I very much like your name choices.

Elizabeth Rose sounds lovely ❤️

Louisa

Rose, I think.

Rose

Rose

Well they all 'go' fine. They are all the classic style of name, like Anna (my favourite name!). Yes Elizabeth is a lot longer etc, but why does it matter? Each name is for an unique person. As they grow up they'll have their own, different lives, friends and families. The only thing that might cause a problem would be if the names were so close in sound it could cause confusion, so for instance I wouldn't choose Anna and Emma, Anna and Hannah (of course!), Anna and Susannah. But you're not!

I also would avoid another name beginning in 'A'. But another name ending in 'A' is absolutely not a problem and quite usual, so many female names follow this pattern. In fact I was going to suggest Rosa rather than Rose, as it's a bit more unusual.

I also prefer Louise to Louisa (although Louisa is fine), but you will get a lot of people bleating 'dated'. Have you considered Luisa instead of Louisa? I know you rejected Lucy, but do you like Lucia?

Clare or Clara? Emily? Isabel? Helena? Zoe or Chloe? Charlotte? Madeline? Christina?
