Sibling names for a MARIGOLD

[sas32]

Hi!
We have a daughter named Marigold and are pregnant with No.2.....
We've decided on Monty (Montgomery) for a boy but can't decide on a girls name.
We like Agnes, Eugenie, Oona, Clementine, Florence..... but don't love any of them...
What do you think would suit? any great boys name suggestions welcome too!
Thanks for your help!

If I were you I'd cross Clementine off. Marigold + Clementine and people will think you have a real thing for orange.

But no constructive suggestions, I'm afraid.

i love the name juniper...could be shortened to juni.

mmmm.

boys name? nothing really springs to mind..will keep thinking!

I LOVE Monty!! I want that name! Stick with it.

I agree with Ninedragons about Clementine. I think Marigold and Florence would be good together.

I quite like Juniper too. Marigold and Juniper- how lovely.

Yes, I agree with the others about Clementine, bit ott I feel. I think Florence goes really nicely. For me personally, I wouldn't use Monty as I have a real problem with sibling names beginning with the same letter!!

Monty is fab!

How about Marguerite (Daisy)?

I know a little Primrose, I think its gorgeous. Or would 2 flowers a bit too cutesy for you?

Thanks for your suggestions!
I completely agree with the too orange combination of Marigold and Clementine!
Juniper is a great suggestion- yes maybe a bit cutesy?! Not sure....
Hedgiemum, does the Juniper you know have a nickname?
Thanks again- I really appreciate your help.

Marigold and Primose sounds like two cows - SORRY... I think you need a completely different kind of name if you have another dd or you are going to look a bit silly imo

But whats wrong with sounding like cows? (Sorry, lots of dairy farmer relations!)

Sas, it wasn't me that suggested Juniper. I'll try to think up something a bit less bovine than Primrose for you though....

Oh I know, instead of Florence/Clementine then Florentine or Clemency - Either would be beautiful with Marigold.

Ooh, Florentine- how lovely.

Matilda?

Of those you mentioned I like Florence best.
Rosemary , Constance I also quite like.

actually I'm wondering if sibling names really need to suit. I do know one family who have given all their dc names beginning with M and another where the girls' names are all flower-related but I wonder if it isn't a bit contrived. There's no harm really either way but I don't see why one dd can't be called Marigold and the next say Anne

How about Emerald? I think that's a fab name

Marigold and Ezmerelda

Marigold and Cassandra

Marigold and Raephella (sp?)

Constance is pretty.

I've always liked Tuesday and Honeysuckle and have mentally bracketed them with Marigold as pretty names that DH wouldn't let me have.

(If only I'd kept my plain maiden name I could have had some fun with these - now, with my longish and tricky to spell married name I feel I have to go with plain, classic and easy to spell first names).

ps Marigold and Monty - supercute!

I love Camellia.

Dahlia and Freesia are two flowers I'd love to see used as names but I wouldn'thave the nerve myself! I like them though.

These names are all sounding very Darling Buds of May

ItsMargot...I knew a lovely Dahlia once, she was a flautist.

Amaryllis....doesn't that look amazing written down...NN Ams, Lissy, Amar....oh its lovely

Monty is v sweet but personally I don't like alliteration in sibling names.

Constance is lovely, as is Florence.

Yes, two flower names could well sound very twee and children's TV-ish if you're not careful.

Clementine is v bad imho.

Marigold and Beatrice
Marigold and Hermione
Marigold and Elinor
Marigold and Felicity
Marigold and Pearl

Marigold and Jocasta

Marigold and Scarlett

we have a Rosabel and are thinking of calling dd no'3 Marigold...

Marigold and Rosabel sounds lovely to me!
