Approx. spacing preference: 2+ yearsA daughter and a son! Looks like we'll be using the middle name William. I'll let you take the lead on this one, dear husband, as we used my favorite name for Lily. What is our second daughter's name? One from the list before?

Yay, a son! For first names I especially like Oliver and Noah. But I also like Felix, Isaac, Zephyr, Maximilian, Simon, Rhys, Kieran, Elias... Do you have any suggestions?For a girl I like Rose names, but as you know I have a sister named Rosalie. She doesn't go my Rose though, so maybe we could use Rosaline, Rosalind or Rosemary nn Rose? From last round we both agreed that we liked these names: Ariana, Jessamine, Nora, Mathilde, Matilda, Theodora, Sienna, Elisabeth, Zara/Sara?, Noelle, Alice, Jocelyn, Noa, Molly.And you said that Freya and Persephone might grow on you. And I have two suggestion, Adelaide and Emilia. What do you think? Any new suggestions? And I can't believe 4 years went by so fast, it seems like our little Lily was just born!

I LOVE Oliver and Noah both, I'd be happy to use either of those names I think Oliver William sounds best, but Noah William is really nice too. I think Rose would be great as a middle name, and though I don't like themes generally, there's something sweet about a flower theme for sisters that I can't help liking. If we go for a rose name as a first name, I like Rosemary nn Rose best. I think your sister would like having a niece named after her.I like Emilia a lot from your new suggestions, and I like Adelaide but prefer Adele or Adela. I'd also suggest Evelyn or Aveline. And from our list from before Ariana, Jessamine, Theodora, Jocelyn, and Noa are my favorites. Freya is especially starting to grow on me too.I can't belive what a good big sister our Lily is. She loves helping out with her little sister and brother. I can't believe she starts preschool soon, it seems only a little while ago that she was a baby learning to talk and walk and now she's learning to read and count and so many new things!

I love Oliver a little more than Noah, so Oliver William is perfect for me. I actually hadn't thought about the flower theme. There isn't really any other flower names I like for girls, so maybe we should stay out of Rose? Or do you think it's fine to have two girls with a theme and name a third daughter something else?
I don't really like Evelyn or Aveline, but they might grow on me as middle names.
I'll give you some combo suggestions, and you can let me know if there is any you like, give me some suggestions yourself etc. :)Theodora Ariana "Thea?"
Noa Jocelyn (but we wouldn't be able to use Noah for a boy..)
Emilia Jocelyn
Jocelyn Freya
Noa Adelaide
Rosemary Aveline "Rose" or "Mary?"Since we are naming our son after me, do you want us to name the girl after you? Julia? Juliana?

I'm fine with leaving Rose alone if you are, since I'd really rather carry a theme through if I start one. I'm open to a middle name after me, but I really like Theodora Ariana and Jocelyn Freya. Another combo I like is Ariana Jocelyn, or even Jocelyn Ariana. What do you think of Joss as a mickname for Jocelyn if we use it as a first name?

I'm happy with Theodora Ariana, Jocelyn Freya, Ariana Jocelyn and Jocelyn Ariana, so I'll leave the final decision up to you. Do you like Thea as a nn for Theodora? I haven't really thoguht about a nickname for Jocelyn, since I don't really think it needs one. But if you want to use Joss, I'm okay with that.

Thea's a great nn for Theodora. I think Theodora Ariana, nn Thea, would be great for our littel girl. We'll put Jocelyn possible nn Joss back in our pockets...who knows, we may have another girl!So we have Lily Seraphina, Theodora Arianna "Thea", and Oliver William.
