Hi there! I am not pregnant, but love talking baby names and would love to hear your opinions on my current choices.
BF and I want 4 kids, 2 girls and 2 boys (obviously we won’t get to pick , but that would be ideal) and after *lots* of changes, have decided that our favourites are:
• Tabitha Caitlin- Caitlin is after a dear friend. We will call her Tabitha or Tabby, or maybe Tabby Cat as a “home” nn
• Simon Alexander- Simon has special meaning to us and Alexander is BF’s name
Do you think Tabitha and Simon go well together?
What names can you think of that would go well for Tabby and Simon’s brother and sister? mn for a boy would likely be James after my Dad and mn for a girl, probably Adeline (family name). With Adeline it would probably be better if the first name didn’t begin or end in an “a”, which makes things difficuly. If I do find a name I love that begins or ends in an “a”, we will just think of a different mn.
BF really likes Maren, and I like it a lot too, but Maren and Simon seem a bit matchy and it seems a bit short compared to Tabitha.
For a boy, I really like Anders, but bf doesn’t like it and it doesn’t go well with mn James. I also like Julian and Micah, but he doesn’t like these either. He likes Samuel and William but I want something a bit more unique.
Thanks for any ideas or feedback you can give!

I have to make this short, but just wanted to say that I love Tabitha Caitlin, and Tabitha and Simon work very well together. ;)
Just a quick thought, but if you don't think Maren quite matches up with Tabitha, what about Marian/Marion (three syllables like Tabitha) or Miriam (also three syllables, very similar to Maren, and Biblical like Tabitha and Simon ... might not matter but it's a nice connection).

Hello, I'm a name fanatic too, so I definitely understand where you're coming from! :)
I think Tabitha Caitlin & Simon Alexander are great names and they go together perfectly.
For the next girl, I loved the suggestion of Miriam Adeline.
Oh my, I love your names!
Simon is the name we are considering now for #3 (we have Lillian and Naomi). Tabitha is a name I love. Also love Miriam, Bethany and Asher.
I think with Tabitha Caitlin and Simon Alexander
Noah James or Isaac James (Asher James would not be my first pick, but it's ok)
Miriam Adeline or Bethany Adeline
Karen
Isaac sounds a little dorky to me, sorry just my opinion
I like Tabitha Caitlin and Simon Alexander a lot and I think they make a great set.
Asher - like it, goes well
Isaac - ditto
Jonah - I don't like it with James as a mn
Judah - ditto
Noah - like it a lot
Miriam - good
Bethany - good
Delilah - I have negative associations with this one
Jemima - even more negative associations with this (Aunt Jemima)
Maren and Simon don't seem too matchy to me; they're similar but not that bad
Good luck.
