Names that go with....

We're looking for names that go with Georgia Mae and Holden Charles. We're going to begin TTC this month. Holden turns 7 months old on the 22nd. It took us a year and a half to concieve Holden and we would like for the next one to be a bit closer in age (Georgia is 4). First names are still up in the air, but middle names will be unusual classic.

For a girl, we still love Francesca. This has been a top contender since we had our first daughter. Any other suggestions for middle names or names similar would be great.

Not sure about boy names as of yet.

I really like Georgia Mae and Holden Charles - a nice old-fashioned vibe to them with the funky nn's of Gia and Chaz - nice!


Francesca Pearl would be my first pick, nn Kessa (from Cesca/Cessa)


Then I think of


Antonia (Nia)


Beatrice (Bea, Bee)


Lillian (Lili)


Louisa (Lola, Lulu)


Evelina (Lina, Evie, Eva)


Cecilia (Cece, Cela)


Clarissa, Clara (I like Cleo myself)


Lucinda (Lulu, Luci)


Estelle, Estella (Estee)


Bianca


Rosalie (Rosy, Sali)


Mariella, Mariana (Mari, Ella, Ana)


Claudia


Calista


Florence


Camilla


Susanna


Johanna


For mns, I'd be thinking of Jewel, Lee (my gran's mn was Mae, her sisters were Lee & Jewell :o), Fay/Faye, Eve, Bess, Belle, Maude, Tess, Rue, Nell, Ruth, Jane, Jean/Jeanne, Fleur, Blythe, Joy, Iris, Ellen, Adele, Irene, June, Clare, Ceil (the last Ceil I ran into is now pushing 70, it's almost forgotten at this point and Maud/Maude is on the endangered list it's so rare)


For a boy, I can't help but think Salinger with Holden, it gives me a
