Kenneth

Ok, here's the story.

My first son was named after my fil and husband

I've been thinking about finding a way to name my coming baby after my father.

Now, my brother is named Derek Kendal and his first son is named Braxton Kendal. So Kendal is out.

Can you think of any veriations on Kenneth? for a boy AND a girl without using super popular macs. Especially, a girls name.

My husband is from the former USSR so his/her middle name follows tradition.

My son is Nicolai Nicolaievich
My daughter is Juliana Nicolaievna (named for my dh's grandmother - Yuliana)

And what about the name Cynthia? (mom's name)

Maybe, I'm just crazy. ;-D We just have such a hard time naming our kids!

My dad's name is Kenneth and it is my oldest son's middle name. Here are some "Ken" names that I like. For a boy-Kennan(means little Ken), Kendrick, Kenton.

For a girl-Kendra(my sister's name), Kenzie, Kennedy, Kenley, Kenna.

As for Cynthia my baby name book say that Hyacinth has the same letters which is a nice connection but still different. I think it would make a nice middle name.
Cynthia means moon other names that also mean moon: Chandra, Celine, Luna, Lucine and Selena.
Hope that helps.

I like Kent, Kenyon, and Kensington.
