Sib for Adam
8
Sun, 07-15-2007 - 5:45pm
Hello Everyone! My neighbor is expecting her second in Jan and is trying to come up w/ some sib possibilities for her DS, Adam. Her criteria are: needs to be 2 syllables (because her last name has one syllable), she tends to like more traditional, less treny names. Her last name starts with "K", to keep that in mind.
Her long time fav for a girl is Emily, but thinks she's sort of board with it. However, she's thinking of just sticking w/ it if it's a girl, because they just really like Adam and Emily. She's not so sure if it's a boy. She really likes Owen, but that's my DS's name, and she doesn't want to copy, even though I don't mind.
So, any ideas for her???
TIA

I think Noah is a great sibling name for Adam

Luke is too, but that's one syllabe - she could do Lucas - well, that might not feed into the hard K sound to start the last name though

I know a sib-set of boys Adam and Aaron (ages 4 and 2)

here are others I think would work well with Adam in both style and her other criteria:

Eric, Evan, Ethan, Ian, Gavin, Hunter, Joshua (albeit 3 syllables), Jacob, Liam (maybe, a little trendy), Matthew, Nathan, Preston, Rory, Ryan, Spencer, Trevor, Tristan

some of those are probably trendier that she's looking for

I think Eric, Evan, Ethan, Ian, Joshua, Jacob, Matthew, Nathan are the next best ones to Noah

I really like the suggestions someone posted of Isaac, and Rachel - I could see those working relaly well. Rachel and Emily have always seemed to go hand in hand to me, with Rachel being the more classic/less popular option. Adam and Rachel sound perfect to me.


For a boy, I also like Levi...
