Sibling for Nico- girls names

22 replies

Moominglitter · 06/07/2024 15:00

Hi! Due soon and having such a hard time with names!
I have a son called Nico Bowie

I love Cleo (worry about its similar sound to Nico) Romy, Lola, Saskia, Suki. But none are really making me feel sure.

middle name will be Love (I know won’t be everyone’s cup of tea but my son decided it because we ‘love’ the baby)

i like shorter names, we have Irish, Italian, Māori and Jewish heritage so open to ideas.

thanks for any help!

Clea is obviously similar to Cleo but avoids the shared -o ending

I don't think older siblings should choose the baby's name.

Nico and Cleo seem OK to me, but from your list my favourite is Saskia.

I'm not keen on Lola, Romy or Suki but they probably go better with Nico.

BobbyBiscuits · 06/07/2024 15:19

I love Romy. What about Ramona?
Leni, Nova, Lark, Satya, Sedonie?

StormingNorman · 06/07/2024 15:19

Nico & Saskia

TemuSpecialBuy · 06/07/2024 15:21

For whatever reason Justine and Christine (or Christina?) came to mind 🤷🏻‍♀️

StormingNorman · 06/07/2024 15:22

Nico & Noa

mjnewbie · 06/07/2024 15:23

Ayla

Nico and Ayla sound nice together

If I didn’t like it also we wouldn’t have gone for it 😊 my husband chose his little brothers middle name (which he loves and uses as his first name now) and it seemed like a nice tradition as it worked.

Ooo like Leni! I really like Romy too my husbands on the fence but he’s a name hater so think he would be for all 😂

I prefer Remy/Remi to Romy, but all of your names are nice

I also love Remy but it’s my dads dogs name and not sure I could get past that 😂

I really like Saskia from your list and think it goes well with Nico.

Some other suggestions:
Sasha
Romina
Vita
Petra
Leda
Zadie

SilverSimca · 06/07/2024 15:32

My first thought was Angelica or Angelika but it goes against all your requirements 😀
Anya
Mara
Layla

BobbyBiscuits · 06/07/2024 15:35

@Moominglitter Leni is my favourite at the moment! Your taste in names is great though, so don't worry about DH, lol.

Firsttimebabymummy · 06/07/2024 15:42

We have different taste but I think Suki goes best with Nico and mn Love

I know it doesn't fit with your requests for shorter names, but the Nico I know has a sister called Leonora which I love! Leonora Love works great!

Otherwise what about:
Cosima
Elena
Elea
Lucia
