Sibset Opinions?
I am currently 4 and a half months pregnant with my third child, and I have two daughters. Which name do you think would work best as a sibset with my daughters' names?
My Daughters:
Andromeda Rose
Katherine Alexandria
Potential Names for Baby #3:
Caspian James, Gabriel Ashton, Jacob Alexander
OR
Laura May, Lydia Lucille, Autumn Elizabeth
(Please pick one feminine combo and one masculine combo, as I don't know what my baby's gender is.)
My Daughters:
Andromeda Rose
Katherine Alexandria
Potential Names for Baby #3:
Caspian James, Gabriel Ashton, Jacob Alexander
OR
Laura May, Lydia Lucille, Autumn Elizabeth

Lydia Lucille is the perfect choice for a girl. If you go with Autumn, Katherine will look like the odd one out. If you pick Laura, then Andromeda becomes the family freak. Lydia is a good midway point between Katherine and Andromeda.
Caspian is too rhymey with Katherine so that one's out for me. Jacob is too dull next to sister Andromeda. So the winner by default is Gabriel Ashton.

I think Autumn Elizabeth fits in best for the female combo. I really think any of the boy combos can work with Andromeda and Katherine: you have one unique name and one traditional name, Caspian would make perfect sense with Andromeda and not clash badly (in my opinion of course) with Katherine while Gabriel and Jacob would make perfect sense with Katherine and mot clash badly (again, imo...) with Andromeda.
My favorite of the three is Caspian James though.
Just wondering, and I know middle names aren’t used that often regardless, but it wouldn’t bother you to have an Alexandria and an Alexander in two of your children’s names?

Yes, it does bother me a bit, but my husband and I both have relatives that recently passed away, one of whom was named Alexandria and the other Alexander.
For a boy, I would say Gabriel Ashton. I was going to say Jacob Alexander, but after looking through some of the replies I realized it probably wouldn't be a good idea. For combinations, Gabriel Jacob or Jacob Gabriel would work. For a girl, I would say Laura May. For combinations, I'M totally loving Lydia May.
The two names you already used are so far apart in sound and style that pretty much any name will sound right with one but not the other.
Definitely not Caspian; it sounds way too similar to Katherinn.
I vote for Laura May, but again, it makes Andromeda stick out that much more.
Don't use Alexander for a son's middle name; you already used Alexandria.
Try Gavin James.

Not Caspian! Caspian and Katherine sound very matchy matchy.
Ooh, I didn't notice that. In that case I'd say Gabriel Caspian.
I love your daughters' names!
Definitely Caspian James for the boy. Gabriel works but Ashton is too generic, and Alexander doesn't work when you already have Alexandria.
For the girl, I'd have to cheat and make Lydia Elizabeth (or maybe Elizabeth Lydia). Laura May is nice but it's on the cute side, and sounds too 'country' for the more elegant names of the sisters. Same with Autumn. Lydia Lucille is just too alliterative and matchy.
