Sister for winter.

[winterbabyrose]

Our 2yo DD is called Winter and her little sister is due in May and we are struggling with names. We have a few we like but can't decide on one. So not sure if just haven't come across the perfect name yet. We mostly like names that aren't too common, or too uncommon, so somewhere in the middle. Nature themed, whimsical names we like the most. Our list so far is:

Astrid
Dahlia
Ophelia
Nova
Lilith
Juniper
Pandora (least favourite)
Arabella

Willow?

@thatneverhappened Willow is lovely but want to avoid anything too similar. Different but compliments, if that makes sense.

Astrid is definitely my favourite from your list - a lovely name. I quite like Juniper, Dahlia and Nova. Lilith is ok but might be misheard as Lily. I find Arabella and Ophelia a bit pretentious sounding, but that probably varies depending where you live. I’m not too keen on Pandora.

Other ideas -

Seren
Iris
Cassia
Willow
Wren
Robyn
Ruby
Sienna
Savannah

Astrid is gorgeous and sits with Winter beautifully

Summer!!! :)

Winter and Nova are lovely together.

her little sister is due in May

for one moment i thought you weee going to say you weee planning on calling Winter’s sibling

May

My first thought was Daphne. Sounds similarly floaty, and in the myth daphne turned into a laurel tree so it's kind of nature-related.

I love Winter.
From your list, I like Dahlia and Juniper. I don't really like Arabella or Ophelia.
Love Seren as per a pp's suggestion.

I like Juniper from your list, but I'm not overly crazy over the rest, although my opinion is that your list is lovely

Summer?

April, May and June are also good names.

I’d go for juniper, nova or dahlia with winter. I love Pandora too.

I really love Astrid and it goes beautifully with Winter names like Ophelia are obviously very beautiful but a bit try hard, I feel.

Ophelia, Arabella are too common to go with Winter.

Astrid - ok
Dahlia -ok
Ophelia - no
Nova - awful
Lilith - no
Juniper -yes
Pandora (least favourite) - no
Arabella- ish

How about aster? It’s a flower and also references the stars.

Arabella is beautiful

Luna?

What about May?

I knew sisters called Summer and Winter. Winter was born solidly in Autumn! May is Celtic Summer at least, and she could come late.

Very similar tastes in names and we nearly went with Winter. Other ideas

Avenelle
