Some girls names I think would go with Tallulah Wren are


Avalon


Finley


Ainsley


Kennady


Sloane


Willow


Hazel


Dahlia


Leilani


Lorelei


Nova


For your boys names, they're NMS but if I had to pick, I probably like Sullivan and Finnian best.

From your list, my favorite is Sullivan nn Sully. Thatcher is also nice. I think a two or three syllable name makes a nice set with Tallulah, so Thane or Hayes wouldn't be my first choice. Archer is okay, but doesn't sound as special as the others.


I'm assuming a Finnian would go by Finn, and I think there are going to be a lot of little Finns around (both boys and girls) due to the increasing popularity of Finley. So, again, it doesn't sound as special as the others.


Tallulah & Sullivan

I love all of the names you listed! I think my top two of your boys' names would be Cormac and Archer. Tallulah and Cormac, Tula and Mac? Tallulah and Archer, Tula and Archie? I think I like Archer best without a nn, but I do love Mac for Cormac.

Let's see if I can give you any inspiration on girls' names...

Arabella
Aurora nn Rory?
Bellamy
Bryony/Briony
Cassia or Cassidy nn Cassie
Cecelia
Cecily
Cordelia nn Cora
Elodie
Genevieve nn Vivi
Gwendolen/Gwendolyn nn Gwen, Gwenna, Gwennie, Wendy?
Imogen!
Isadora nn Dora, Sadie, Isa?
Joceline/Jocelyn or Josephine nn Josie
Mirabel nn Mira
Octavia
Odessa
Ophelia nn Faye?
Phaedra nn Faye?
Philippa nn Pippa
Rosalie or Rosemarie/Rosemary nn Rose, Rosie, Rosa
Susanna nn Sanna
Vivienne/Vivian nn Vivi

I really love Tallulah and Imogen together. I think Tula and Faye make a fun sister set too! I can't decide whether I like Ophelia or Phaedra better for Faye though.

HTH, let me know if you like any of these and maybe I can suggest some more. I really love your taste, so this was really fun for me.

Good luck,
Rachael

This is funny to me, I have a 3 year old Hayes and no one has ever said a word about Isaac Hayes. I definitely associate it more to Rutherford B. Hayes, 19th president of the US, and only two people have ever made that connection, one was my old high school history teacher, and once a gas station when someone overheard me call my son, and he said "thats a boring president to name a kid after"

Of course I love Hayes, and since not very many people do, you don't have to worry about it becoming too popular.
All the Finns have been played out to the extreme around here, I know a plain Finn, a Phineas nn Phin, two Griffins that go by Finn and a Finnegan who also goes by Finn. But it is a neat name so I can see why people like it. And I don't know a Finnian.

I really like Cormac from your list too.
