Greek baby names!

[Pinohoratio]

Greek/British baby 3 due imminently. Don’t know the sex. Please help with Greek name suggestions that work in the UK!

Older bro and sis have “proper” Greek names rather than English translations, eg. Alexandros rather than Alexander, so probably need to stick to this theme!

Boys names suggestions in particular are welcome - I am finding it easier to find girls names that we like.

Ideas so far:

Girl - Ismene, Nephele, Eleni, Eirini

Boy - Vasilios, Dimitrios, Petros, Kosmas

I know a little boy named Georgios (nn Georgie). I also like Calix for a boy, or Calixta for a girl.

I love Eleni and Eirini so much! Petros is nice too.

Phoebe is a Greek name l believe.
Thea or that might be Cypriot.

I was coming to say I love Eirini then saw it on your list

Ntaiana

I like Eleni, but she'll spend her UK life being called Elaine-y.

Katerina? Anna? Konstantina (Ntina)?

I know a Vasilios (goes by Vasili) - I think it is nice.

When you say "proper" Greek names, do you mean they are both Greek Orthodox saints' names for your first two?

Love Dimitrios

I really like Dimitrios

Theadora is lovely, or Daphne.

Constantinos
Philipos
Achilleas
Aristos

or Elleny. It's El-enny.

I like Eirini and Petros

Yes! I was going to say that they have the Greek spelling, but obviously they are anglicised in terms of the alphabet! But I mean Petros instead of Peter, for instance.

I'm in love with the name Despina.

Athina

I always liked Eirini and Zoe.

Giorgios
Nestor
Athos
Polydor

Dorcas
Olympia
Calista
Merope
Calypso
Helena

Just a note of caution, my autocorrect has been going crazy on this thread, I guess because so much English vocabulary has Greek roots. For the sake of your future DLO, it might be worth testing out what spell check will try to turn their chosen names into...

Mandras
Iannis

Pelagia

Spot the theme?

Eleni is a beautiful name ❤️

It is, isn’t it?! I don’t think correcting the pronunciation would be too much of an issue?
