The Not so easy partner congrats - Round 1
Note: You can still sign up, if there is someone else who wants too since I need an even number.
Rules
I want to keep this congrats simple, so there won't be a bunch of rules.
However, you and your partner can PM each other or whatever instead of talking on the boards, if you want to.
Hopefully your partner will be active and check the board regularly. If you miss one round that's fine, if you miss two your partner can choose the names, and if your partner still haven't responded to the third round, well, congratulations, I'll be your new partner!
Round 1
Each of you now have a partner whose naming style isn't exactly like yours. There are no children in this round, instead I would like the two of you to do the following things:
- Agree on a surname (and maiden name, if you want)
- Name your DH and DW (however, don't decide who is what. You can give them ages if you want)
- Start talking a bit about names. Create a list if you want too.
- Write "Finished" in the subject line when the two of you consider yourselfs finished

I'm glad we have a fair few names on our list seeing as our naming style is so different =)
I think we can add Ashford- we're lacking a little on boys names.
Is Arya pronounced ar-YA or ah-REE-ah?
Arianne is still lovely, let's add it!
Liana can maybe be a MN as can Lillian =)

I like Desmond Alasdair the most out of the DH names. For DW I really like Astrid Liana or Tabitha Jane. I think we should go with Tabitha Jane since Astrid and Desmond would both end in a 'd'.
Out of the surnames, I like Lindley the best ... it seems like the most versatile. Desmond Alasdair Lindley and Tabitha Jane Lindley sound great.
Arya... I say AR-ya, but I've heard others say it AR-ee-ya (emphasis on first syllable).

I don't mind what our surname is so if you can think of something better, go for it. Otherwise, our family is

DW: Tabitha Jane
and our lists look like

I've just gone through my PNL and the only names I now like that weren't on it before are Desiree for a girl and Micah for a boy. Do you like either of those? I'm not going to add Arya, it's too different from Aria, sorry. If you're happy with our family, write finished in your reply =) Can't wait for the next round now!

Here's your response to the sign ups:
1. Is popularity a big issue for you? Yes, I don't want my child to be one of 6 kids in their class at school with the same name!
2. How would you describe your naming style? I like classic, but still unique names. I really dislike unisex names, nickanmes used as full names, and kre8tve spellings
3. Is the meaning of a name important to you? Not really
4. Please list 3 names of each gender that you love: BOYS: Jamison, Austin, Emmett. GIRLS: Aveline, Lily, Eleanor
Here's mine:
1. Is popularity a big issue for you? No, but I'd prefer something that is not very popular.
2. How would you describe your naming style? I like Biblical names, as well as names that sound fairly British, maybe with a hint of French, too. Oh, and Shakespearean names are on my list, as are Saint names.
3. Is the meaning of a name important to you? They can be. If I find a name that has a meaning that I like, I'll probably start liking the name, too.
4. Please list 3 names of each gender that you love:
Girls
Faustina
Philomena
Joelle
Boys
Evander
Benjamin
Lysander

Toby (but only as a nn for a longer version)
Zeph (but only as a nn for a longer version)
GIRLS:
Adela
Adriana
Ariadne

Diana
Emily (prefer a variant however as Emily is too popular for my liking)
Gaia

Kassiopeia (prefer Cassiopeia though)
Lauren
Lili (prefer Lily)
Margaret (love some of the nn's for this name)
Nova
Phoebe
Rosie (love as a nn for a longer version)

Great, well that gives us a good starting point anyway!
So for Round 1 we have to;
- Agree on a surname (and maiden name, if you want)
- Name your DH and DW (however, don't decide who is what. You can give them ages if you want)
- Start talking a bit about names. Create a list if you want too.
- Write "Finished" in the subject line when the two of you consider yourselfs finished
So, surname... Did you want to choose a name from our lists that works as a surname as well? or do you have a 'favorite' surname? Suggestions:
Daniels
Jacobs
Andrew
Orion
Philippe

That's actually a good idea. Maybe we could have a maiden name for the DW like that, and then choose a different one for the DH. That way the first son or something we can have them honor the DW.
Maybe ____ ____ Jacobson?
And for the husband, here's some I like:
Kennet
Rosenfeld
Hanley
Bernard/Barnard
Bellamy
Fairbairn
Rothwell
Or Bellamy could be the maiden name of the DW, and Bellamy could be a name used for a DD. Bellamy would be a cute name.

I like your thinking about using one of names as the maiden name, and then honoring that in a sons name... brilliant!
Jacobson works, and then having Jacob as the first sons mn?
Out of your suggestions I like Rothwell best. So is this them?
DH: ______ ______ Rothwell (?)
DW: ______ ______ Rothwell [nee Jacobson] (?)
I'm thinking early-mid 20's for their ages? Maybe 23-26?
For the names, did you want to each pick one, or should we pick out top 5 male & female out of each others lists, and then we'd have 10 names for each gender to toss around and make combos out of?

How about these ages?
DH: ______ ______ Rothwell (25)

Do you want to choose the FN of one, and I the FN of the other, and then the same for MNs?

perfect - BUT, just to make it interesting, what if we have to pick from each others lists not our own????
Do you want to do the fn for DH or DW?
Do you want to do the fn for DH or DW?
That works for me. I'll choose the FN for the DH.
How about we go with Dominic for the FN?
How about we go with Dominic for the FN?
WDYT of Dominic Evander Rothwell?
How about Gwendolyn for the wife? nn Gwen?
How about Gwendolyn for the wife? nn Gwen?
Works for me. Maybe his nn could be Dom or Nick. Which do you like better? Or he wouldn't even have to have a nn.
What do you think of Gwendolyn Lucretia [Jacobson] Rothwell?
What do you think of Gwendolyn Lucretia [Jacobson] Rothwell?
LOVE Gwendolyn Lucretia! honestly i'm just excited to use Lucretia :)
I'd go for Dom as a nn for Dominic.
So this is us then:
DH: Dominic Evander Rothwell "Dom" (25)
DW: Gwendolyn Lucretia Rothwell [nee Jacobson] "Gwen" (23)
I'd go for Dom as a nn for Dominic.
So this is us then:
DH: Dominic Evander Rothwell "Dom" (25)

Hey there new partner!
Here are my own name suggestions for the surname, maiden name and parents' names. Let me know whet you like and show me you're own suggestions as well.
Surnames: Dowling, Black, McCallum, Richardson, LaPlante, Hart, DeSantis, Von Essen, Richardson, Graven, Davies
Men: Donovan, Xavier, Malcolm, Julian, Louis, Armand, Declan, Fabian, Gideon
Women: Clara, Viola, Mariel, Bianca, Amalia, Lorelei, Renata, Matilda, Alexandra
And just so you have an idea of what I'm like:
-Popularity is not important to me. If I love a name, I'll use it.
-I have a very eclectic style, but tend to go for names that sound like they'd fit in a gothic story
-Meaning is not important to me.

Can we name a parent each?
My favourite surname from my list was Galloway, is that okay?
If I named the husband, his name would be Josiah Declan. If I named the wife, her name would be Matilda Josephine.
So if you like my girls name or boys name best, just leave that one and name the other parent?
Sorry if the way I'm saying stuff is confusing.. lol I'm a bit tired.

Sorry it took me a while to answer, I had no internet at my job today :-/
Yeah that works out. And Galloway is great.
And I definitely get what you're saying. I like Matilda Josephine the best and was thinking of giving her the maiden name Black if that's okay.
Here are my combinations for the husband. Which of these do you like best?
Theodore Malcolm
Theodore Declan
Felix Gideon
Felix Declan
Henry Xavier
Henry Malcolm
Robert Julian
Robert Declan
Robert Xavier
Josiah Malcolm
PS - What ever names we don't use now we should still consider them for future rounds (and add on if we feel like it).

Hi! :)
What kind of surnames do you like?
Some surnames I like: Hawthorne, Quinn, Winchester, Rafferty, Hartley and almost any nature-related word surnames. And I'd like the wife to keep her surname (or at least hyphenate) after marrying if that's okay.
How would you like to decide the names for the couple? One names the husband and other names the wife? Or do we decide both names together? What kind of names do you like?
Here are some names I like:
Aurelia, Cordelia, Rhea, Rosabel, Amabel, Katherine, Cecily, Bryony, Cassandra, Alina, Dahlia, Katja/Katya, Therese, Serene, Aubrey
Edward, Dorian, Jasper, Brody, Alexander, Julian, Adrian, Adair, Reed, Darwin, Leander, Elias, Linus, Ronan, Victor
I'd say my naming style is somewhat diverse. I don't like or dislike names just because they are trendy, classic, biblical, made-up, unisex or something. I tend to stay away from word names spelled wrong, very creative spellings, overly religious combos, filler middle names, and boring unimaginative combos.

How about... I name the wife, you name the husband?
Some names I like
Tali, Aviyah/Avia, Maayan, Ayelet, Ziv (Zeev)
Daniel, Itai, Natan
The names I like from your list
Alina, Serene, (what about Rosalind?)
Julian, Alexander, Ronan
I like Hebrew names, and would like to make one of the spouses Israeli, if possible.

You can name the wife and you can make her Israeli if you want.
Would Julian Reed Hawthorne be okay for the husband?
From your list I like
Avia, Ayelet
Daniel
How about Maya/Maia? Yonatan (or Jonatan) with nickname "Natan"?
The names you like from my list
Alina, Serene, Rosalind
Julian, Alexander, Ronan
I do like Rosalind very much.
You said you like Hebrew names so I made a list of some Hebrew names I like
Ilana, Adina, Dalia, Maya, Shira
Yonah, Yonatan
Would Julian Reed Hawthorne be okay for the husband?

Sure :)
Julian Reed Hawthorne and Talia Amichai?
Kids can be Amichai-Hawthorne?
I don't like Jonatan/Yonatan. Jonathan is okay, though.
WDYT of Rosalind Maia/Maia Rosalind, Avia Serene, Ronan Natan (although Rosalind and Ronan can not be in the same sibset), or Jonathan Daniel (or Jonathan Alexander and Daniel Ronan)?

WDYT of Rosalind Maia/Maia Rosalind, Avia Serene, Ronan Natan (although Rosalind and Ronan can not be in the same sibset), or Jonathan Daniel (or Jonathan Alexander and Daniel Ronan)?
So our family looks like this:
LN: Amichai-Hawthorne
DH: Julian Reed Hawthorne
DW: Talia Amichai
Should we have ages for them or not? I'm okay with either way.
I really love Maia Rosalind (awesome combo!) and Avia Serene is very nice too. WDYT of Serene Ayelet (or Ayelet Serene)? Alina Ayelet?
Ronan Natan doesn't really flow. How about Ronan Daniel?
Daniel Ronan is perfectly okay but I think I prefer Ronan Daniel.
Jonathan Daniel and Jonathan Alexander are okay but I see them a bit of boring. I guess I would be okay with Alexander Jonathan.
How about Alexander Natan?
LN: Amichai-Hawthorne
DH: Julian Reed Hawthorne
DW: Talia Amichai

Jonathan Daniel and Jonathan Alexander are okay but I see them a bit of boring. I guess I would be okay with Alexander Jonathan.
How about Alexander Natan?
Maia Rosalind- Yes!
Avia Serene- Yes!
Ayelet Serene- Yes!
Alina Ayelet- too alliteration-y for my liking
Ronan Daniel- Sure
Alexander Natan- I like Alexander, but I do think it is a little average
Ages... Sure :) 26 and 24?
Avia Serene- Yes!
Ayelet Serene- Yes!
Alina Ayelet- too alliteration-y for my liking
Ronan Daniel- Sure
Alexander Natan- I like Alexander, but I do think it is a little average
Ages... Sure :) 26 and 24?
LN: Amichai-Hawthorne
DH: Julian Reed Hawthorne (26)
DW: Talia Amichai (24)
Combos we agree on:
Maia Rosalind
Avia Serene
Ayelet Serene
Ronan Daniel
Other possible names:
Alina
Jonathan / Natan
Alexander
I think this is a pretty good start. We can try to find more names we agree on (especially for boys) when we have a child. If you have any other name ideas let me know.

Hi!
I'll tell you a little about my naming style to start out. For the most part, I like serious-sounding, old-fashioned (clunky) names. I also like Spanish, French, and Italian names. But those are just my favorite categories of names...I really can appreciate and even love all sorts.
Here are some of my favorites, just in case you like any of these-
Francis / Frank, Ray, Saul, Bede, Abel, Asa / Asaph, Alva, Ira, Chester, Anthony, Augustine, Urban, Saverio, Nicasio
Ruth, Luce, Rae, Maud, Lois, Zoya, Augustine, Esther, Dolores, Pilar, Carmen, Ursula, Angelica, Faviola / Favi, Antonietta
What are your favorites and how would you describe your name style?
Any ideas for the last names? Here are a few...
Orozco
Greenwood
Thomson
Knowles
Villalobos
Jimson
Berea
Folsom

So just to recap, my naming style is romatic and classic, popularity isn't that important to me, and meaning isn't as important as connotation and namesakes, though I do like a name with a nice meaning. My favorite girls' names are Lily, Arianna, and Magdalena while my favorite boys' names are Gabriel, Owen, and Samuel. Here are some ideas for our last name:
Graham
Kilpatrick
Moore
Gracey
Delaney
Rossi
Bergin
I'd love to hear any of your ideas as well!
Graham
Kilpatrick
Moore

Delaney

I'd love to hear any of your ideas as well!
Here is what I said when I signed up.
1. Is popularity a big issue for you? Somewhat. I don't like super popular names, but medium popularity is fine. I guess.
2. How would you describe your naming style? Unusual, but not eccentric. Mostly uncommon names, but people still can pronounce them. Mostly.
3. Is the meaning of a name important to you? Not that much.
4. Please list 3 names of each gender that you love
Girls
Alana
Chiara
Katya
Boys
Demetris
Jethro
Nikola
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
I like Delnaey or Kilpatrick. How about Delaney as the surname and Kilpatrick as the maiden name? Sound good to you?
By the way I like Lily, Arianna, Gabriel and Owen out of your favorites. Here is a name list to get us started.
Girls
Lorelei
Wynne
Suri
Tallulah
Tatum

Hello there! Here's what I posted on the sign-up thread:
1. Is popularity a big issue for you? - It's an issue, but not really a big issue. Trendy names turn me off, and unless I really love a name (e.g. William), I will probably shy away from something extremely popular (e.g. Sophia, which I would otherwise love). But I wouldn't be entirely opposed to it either.
2. How would you describe your naming style? - Anything but modern. I usually go for traditional names but I also prefer them to be unique, as long as they're not ridiculously complex or difficult to pronounce. I would prefer names that work well in the English-speaking world since that's where I am. I like names with an old, historic, romantic sort of quality to them. And I have an inclination toward names that end in S or N, especially for boys.
3. Is the meaning of a name important to you? - Not really.
4. Please list 3 names of each gender that you love - Cecily, Mercedes, Glenice; William, Tristan, Julian.
-------
Here's a list of surnames I fancy, in approximate order of preference:
Hanna
Gilchrist
Callahan
Cockrill
Shepard
Sauvage
Collumbell
Sutherland
Llewellyn
Kirchner
Christie
Eastgate
Teague
Drury
Collier
Quinlan
And here's a longer list of first names I like, in order (roughly) of most preferred to least preferred:
F:
Cecily
Mercedes
Glenice
Melaine (yes, Melaine, not Melanie) or Melaina
Moira
Lucia (preferably Lu-CHEE-a, the Italian pronunciation)

Hello!
These are my answers on the sign up thread:
1. Is popularity a big issue for you?
Not really. I'd use a very popular name if I liked it but I would avoid very popular / filler middle names.
2. How would you describe your naming style?
I like classic and modern names from all/most languages. I dislike creative spellings and most made up names but there are exeptions.
3. Is the meaning of a name important to you?
Yes, but it's not a deal-braker.
4. Please list 3 names of each gender that you love.
Aurora, Phaedra, Helena & Henry, Alexander, Sebastian.
From your lists I like (* means I really like):
* Eastgate
* Sauvage
Sutherland
Callahan

* Helena
* Magdalene (pr. MAG-də-lən but I don't mind other pronunciations)
Kerensa
* Anais
* Sophia
Nell (as a short form of Eleanor/Elanor)
Grace
Celeste

Okay, let's see...
From your lists I like:
Fay
Hollis
Catherine
Eleanor
Stella
Alexandra
I especially like Fay and Hollis, now that I think about it. Hollis is on my PNL but I just tend to overlook it sometimes.
Paul
Riordan (Funny, I just added this to my PNL last night!)
John
Alexander
Nathan / Nathaniel (I never can decide which one I prefer, but I'm leaning toward Nathaniel at the moment)
Henry
I think of the five, Callahan is my favorite surname, but I also like Sauvage a lot. How about Sauvage as a married name and Drury as a maiden name? Or Callahan as married and Sauvage as maiden? On the other hand, Eastgate might be a better fit since it seems like we have more Irish and English names on our lists and Sauvage sounds more French...then again, we also have Anais and Celeste.
So for DH and DW names, do we select from our list or choose names that aren't on it? I tend to think of these all as baby names so I figure we'd go for something a little different for the parents, but I don't really have a preference. Well, here's a couple of ideas to start with:
Nathaniel James Callahan / Sutherland
Ethan John Callahan / Sutherland
Ethan Xavier Callahan / Sutherland

Hmmm,
I really like Joanna Grace Drury, I think it flows very well! We could change Joanna to Helena (He-LAY-na) so we can use a name from our lists.
I prefer the other 3 surnames over Callahan for DH. Maybe we could use Ethan John Sauvage, Ethan Jude Sutherland, Lucas Xavier Eastgate or something like that!

I always liked the sound of Magdalene Anais. Not sure how I feel about it with Sauvage, though, since it ends with S. But it's a possibility.
Magdalene Anais Sauvage
Magdalene Wren Sauvage (I think this flows much better than Magdalene Anais)
Magdalene Eleanor Sauvage
Magdalene Kerensa Sauvage
Magdalene Stella Sauvage
Nathaniel Riordan Sauvage
Nathaniel Ezra Sauvage
Nathaniel Eamonn Sauvage
I also tend toward William, Lucia or Melaina for their first child. Let's see...
William Nathaniel Sauvage
William Stellan Sauvage
William Ezra Sauvage
William Lucas Sauvage
Lucia Magdalene Sauvage
Lucia Celeste Sauvage
Lucia Kerensa Sauvage
Melaina Catherine Sauvage
Melaina Wren Sauvage
Melaina Fay Sauvage
By the way, I'm using the Italian pronunciation for Lucia, Lu-CHEE-a. Is that what you use? I don't mind Lu-SEE-a, and LU-sha doesn't work with as many middle names, but LU-sha would be my second favorite pronunciation.
Magdalene Anais Sauvage
Magdalene Wren Sauvage (I think this flows much better than Magdalene Anais)

Magdalene Anais Sauvage is great! I don't mind the "s" part because in real life the middle name isn't used often and I don't think it ruins the flow. I also like Melaina Fay & Lucia Magdalene / Magdalen Lucia. I like all pronunciations for Lucia. Lu-CHEE-a is fine.
For a boy I like Nathaniel Riordan and Lucas William / William Lucas. What about Nathaniel Jude?

Hi! Okay, so we need to figure out a maiden name and last name and also the names of DH and DW.
Here are some surnames...
Campbell
Ayers
Schwartz
Ramirez
Beasley
Carey
Boyer
Sellers
I just chose them randomly from the surname site.

Campbell
Ayers
Schwartz
Ramirez
Beasley
Carey
Boyer
Sellers
I just chose them randomly from the surname site.
For the last names I like Campbell and Sellers. What about Antema, Dewitt, Crewe, Prince, Hayes, or Logan (Those are random, as well)
So most of the names I like are pretty classic, normal, names people will recongize.
Here's a list of some that I love (you'll probably think most are boring)
Eliza
Clara
Charlotte
Caroline
Cecilia
Theresa
Louisa
Ellen
Naomi
Miriam
Lucy
Lilia
Lila
Odessa
Natalie
Samantha
Audrey
Rose
Margaret
Adele
Felicity
Esther
Grace
Elena
Mary
Kate
Alice
Vivenne
Violet
Simon
Soloman
Benjamin
Levi
Henry
William
Theodore
Luca
Noah
Lewis/Louis
Ian
Micah
Oliver
Peter
As you can see, I'm more interested in girls names than boys names :). So maybe one of us can to the FN and the other can chose the MN, and then if I chose the FN first, then the next time I'd chose the MN? Or we can just try to comprimize a different way. Let me know what you think! :)

No, I think that's a really good way to compromise. :) And I like quite a few of your names. I just tend towards more out there names, but there are more traditional names I like as well!
Out of your random last names, I like Hayes and Logan. So we are down to Campbell, Sellers, Hayes and Logan. We can probably pick which one sounds the best after we name DH and DW. Since you are more into female names, how about you choose the first name for DW and I do the middle and then I choose the first name for DH and you do the middle for him?
Here's a list of 20 names for each gender that I like that displays my rather quirky style.
Eleanor
Emmeline
Ariadne
Lydia
Seraphina
Elowen
Bryony
Luna
Amalia
Miriam
Maisie
Guinevere
Linnea
Calista
Juniper
Tamsin
Indira
Liora
Adara
Rowena
Elias
Rowan
Lucian
Julian
Milo
Leander
Alasdair
Evander
Caspian
Ezra
Morgan
Silas
Leon
Rory
Flynn
Sebastian
Brennan
Anders
Aubrey
Tristan
So for DH's first name, I was thinking Morgan or Brennan.

Okay, we'll do that then, but we can still offer opinions on what eachother's thinking, right? Yeah, most of your names I like, and I might use for a real child's MN, but not the first.
Okay that works. I like Morgan a little better than Brennan (you like names that end in N, don't you? :) ). Maybe Morgan Henry, Morgan Theodore or Morgan Nicholas?
For the wife maybe Naomi, Elena or Gevevieve?

Okay awesome so does Morgan Henry and Naomi Celeste work then? :) Now we just have to pick which last name sounds the best. We can also choose one as a maiden name.
Morgan Henry Campbell
Morgan Henry Sellers
Morgan Henry Hayes
Morgan Henry Logan
Naomi Celeste Campbell
Naomi Celeste Sellers
Naomi Celeste Hayes
Naomi Celeste Logan
Morgan Henry Campbell
Morgan Henry Sellers
Morgan Henry Hayes

My fav nn for Elisabeth is Elsie, but I also like Elise and Beth, probably Elise more than Beth.
I like Tatum as well if you want to add that to the list. I also love Elias, which reminds me that I like Isaias. What do you think?
I like Nicoline and Nicholas as well.

Wilde is fine as our surname, and Jensen is fine as a maiden name.
I don't like Isaias, but I do like Isaiah. WDYT?
Adding Tatum, Nicoline and Nicholas if that's alright with you?
From your combos I like: Lydia Noelle and Noa Isabel.
Oliver and Noah are my favorite names for boys, but I wouldn't use them in the same combo. I'm not sure about Abel as a FN - what about Maximilian Abel?
And Abel reminded me that I like Raphael. WDYT?
Some more combos:
Tatum Maximilian
Lucas Tatum
Raphael Alexander (if you like Raphael, that is)

Ages, between 20 and 25 perhaps? It doesn't really matter to me, but I would prefer if the DH was a bit older than the DW.
