Rainbow Baby's Name!!

25 replies

ellierossi · 01/05/2024 03:45

Hello,
We are expecting our rainbow baby(yay!!) at the end of May, and have been constantly at war with what to name her! We would like to honor my French parents or his Italian parents. I want to name our daughter something classic French or English; he prefers more unique Italian names. Her middle name will be either Isabella, Maria, or Lucia(Lou-ch-ee-ah) and our last name is Rossi. Please, please give us feedback or suggestions! Here is what we have so far...
Violet
Vivienne
Penelope
Lucy(I love but won't work with last name)
Evangeline
Ivy
Juliette
Aria
Gianna
Evelina
Margot
Eliza

Thanks so much!

Why not Lucia as a first name? You get a name close to Lucy, he gets Italian. Lucia Juliette Rossi is lovely.

Congratulations on your little miracle!! How wonderful for you both❤️

Some absolutely gorgeous choices on that list - I particularly love Penelope, Evangeline, Aria & Eliza.

The only one I’m really not keen on is Ivy - has a very harsh sound to it and negative connotations with a rather ugly and prickly plant (sorry!!)

How about:
Beatrice
Charlotte
Isabel
Amelie
Elise
Celeste
Mathilde
Genevieve

Congratulations! Beautiful names on your list.

how about Madeleine? Madeleine Lucia Rossi sounds lovely, it goes with Isabella beautifully too I think!

ellierossi · 01/05/2024 04:08

I never even thought of that! I love it!

Ivy, Juliette, Eliza or Evelina ❤️

I like Violet and it's a rainbow colour!

Moreteaandchocolate · 01/05/2024 07:07

From your list of ideas my favourite is Ivy - a gorgeous short, simple name that works well for all ages.

I also really like Eliza, Evelina, Penelope, Vivienne and Violet. Gianna is gorgeous too. Aria and Juliette are quite nice. Pp suggestion of Madeleine is also lovely.

Evangeline sounds a bit like evangelical to me, which puts me off. Margot I find a bit faddy, not sure how well it will date.

Ahh thanks. I have a Madeleine myself so a particular fondness for the name. Actually, she has an Italian middle name too 😊

JimPansy · 01/05/2024 15:07

Violet - 2 colours
Vivienne - not keen, Vivien is ok
Penelope - too long, will be Penny, won't work with last name
Lucy - won't work with last name
Evangeline - too long, will be Evie, won't work with last name
Ivy - don't like, won't work with last name
Juliette - Juliet is much nicer, dated in France. Giulietta is nice
Evelina - hospital. too long, will be Evie, won't work with last name
Margot- too trendy
Eliza - won't work with last name

Aria - don't like, not great with last name
Gianna - too italian. Might get mixed up with Jenna/Janet
