New here, looking for TTC#5 suggestions
| Fri, 11-03-2006 - 4:23pm |
Hi everyone,
I have been viewing these boards for a while and am impressed with the diversity of suggestions. DH and I are considering TTC for #5. Baby would be his fourth and my second. We have all girls and are hoping for a boy. Another girl would be great though.
Anyway, some names we are considering for Future Baby are:
Navarra Jayne
Samantha Mia
Cassia Renee
Amelia Mireya
Nathaniel Roland (mn for DH)
Christian Michael/Miguel (mn for my Dad)
Dante Aleric
Mateo Revelin (Irish equiv. of Roland)
Last name is hispanic, starts with S and is two syllables. "Our" girls are (his) Diana Carine, Jennifer Lee, Lisa Marie and (mine) Kaylan Shea.
TIA for your help!

You have some very diverse options here! Of your girls names, I like Amelia the best, but I would prefer it paired w/ mn Jayne instead. Amelia Jayne- very pretty! My second choice would be Samantha.
Of your boys, I love the name Mateo. My only concern is that none of the girls have very "ethnic" names (although Diana works in both languages), so that's something to think about. I don't mind Revelin as a mn, but I might prefer Roland b/c it's a more direct version of DH's name and balances out the "different" first name. My second choice for a boy would be Nathaniel, with mn either Roland or Miguel.
Good luck with all the decision-making!

Thanks belle_petite for the siggy!
I went over our list again and this is just the tip of the iceberg! LOL But they are names we are liking at this stage of the game. His girls are 24,22 and 16 and mine is 10.
Our taste has obviously changed since the girls were born. Thanks for your suggestions. Mateo is actually my number one choice and Nathaniel is DH's. He is really pushing for Roland as a middle name and I want to honor my Dad who has all girls too.
Well we have time.
Thanks again.

With Diana Carine, Jennifer Lee, Lisa Marie and Kaylan Shea:
Navarra Jayne - I like Jane (spelt this way) a lot. The "y" is unnecessary. Navarra is horrible though, sorry. It reminds me of Nevaeh, which is such a trashy name, so Navarra brings the same images to mind.
Samantha Mia - Love both of these names separately, but not together. If you go with Samantha, Samantha Jane or Samantha Renee would be a better combo.
Cassia Renee - Cassia doesn't sound very pretty to me at all, but I love the similar Calla, Carissa, and Calista
Amelia Mireya - Love Amelia, not quite sure where you found Mireya but it isn't very pretty
I think you really have to focus on not using trendy/made up names and spellings. You can use more modern names without making them up. Here are some ideas for you:
Taryn
Sage
Carlen
Carys
Maren
Kendall
Tatum
Marissa
Kelsey/Chelsea
Sienna
Nathaniel Roland - love this, a perfect combo
Christian Michael/Miguel - again, this is very nice. I am loving your boy choices
Dante Aleric - Dante is nice, I prefer Dante Roland or Dante Michael (Dante Miguel is nice too but maybe a bit TOO cultural)
Mateo Revelin - I love Mateo, though I think you should just stick with Roland. Mateo Roland is very nice.
I think you have some awesome boys choices. I would stick with Roland as a mn, it is great and so strong, and flows well with all your choices.

Nikki-
Thanks for the input. Navarra is actually a place in Spain that I read about. Mireya is a Spanish name that can also be spelled Mireia. It means to look at or admire. I'm not sure about the girls names, just playing with a really long list. LOL
I do think the boys list has better potential. I'll play with the list you provided and see what DH likes.
