    Please consider making a video about gem/stone/mineral inspired names. I love names like Flint, Opal, Topaz, Ivory, Mica, Ruby, etc. There are so many possibilities with this one. What do you think?

    I absolutely love researching baby names! Some of my favourites are;
    Marina Evangeline
    Aurelia Harriet (Lia - nickname)
    Lena Noelle (Pronounced Lay-na, Nell - nickname)
    Cambria Juliette
    I also love Lucia (the Spanish pronunciation - ‘ See-ah’ rather than ‘Chi-ah’) Evelyn, Annalise & Rosalie as middle names.

  • @valeriecarter7860

    I’ve been watching your videos like crazy daydreaming names for our third baby.
    Big siblings are Christopher Joseph and Gwendolyn Grace. They often go by their nicknames, Kit and Gwen, so nicknames are essential for us.
    For boys, we’re liking Theodore (Teddy), Finnegan (Finn), and Milo. For girls, I’m loving Eleanor (Nora), Luna (Lulu), and Aurelia (Rory). Middle name has to be nautical in some capacity so we’re loving Cove for a boy and Pearl or Cordelia for a girl.
    Any other fun ideas? Nicknames are important and my feeling is that this baby is rather whimsical and mermaid-y.

    1. Congrats!!! Enfys? It means rainbow in Welsh, so thought it would match well with "Light".
    2. I literally have no idea.
    3. I love how the girl names are both 2 of the gardener quadruplets. I quite like Azaria for a girl, actually. I don't know whet's prompting me to throw this one out there, but maybe you could use Estelle or some other variant of that? It incorporates the e from Evangeline and the S from Scarlet. For boys, how about Caesar?
    4. Congrats!!! Stella (Meaning star) could be a second s name, considering you have 2 m names already. You could always name her Stella Lucy (Or the Scandinavian form mentioned).
    5. Yay!!! You could make it longer and call her Nakova. The Stopher family have a Nakova on youtube and I'm so in love with this name. Revery is beautiful. Again, I don't know what's prompting this, but I feel like you might like the name Elody? It's long and still not too out there.
    6. Just listen to SJ. :)
    7. Omw she mentioned Elody too? Elyssa? Elowyn? Eliana?
    8. Loooove adoption!!! KEATS makes me think of literature, so maybe a name like Wilbur, Clive, Maybe you could go for Keats as a middle name? Charlie Keats maybe? Zackary?
    9. Oh hi, Colette's my first name. Loooove Ardith.
    10. Twins!!! Leila Anne and Angela Lee? Samantha Meredith and Melina Scarlet? Brigit Destiny and Denice Briana?
    11. Really glad this is going well. ❤️ Leslie, Melanie?

    We are expecting baby #2. 22 weeks today and we do not know gender. Please help us as we cannot agree. If I have a girl, I’d prefer her middle name to be Faye to carry on my grandmothers name. Last name will be Wagner. For a boy, we liked Grayson, but it is just so common :( if you could recommend boy and girl names that are unique but not too unusual. Our first born boy is Camden Ryan. Thanks in advance!

      brandy hall native American names are tricky. Unless you have permission from a tribe to use one of their names, I would tread lightly. We wanted to use the name "Onawa" with our first but after doing some research and calling the tribal preservation office we found out that it was a made up name by a settler who was writing a story, which supposedly is a common occurrence.

    I love powerful name meanings but for the name to sound sweet and even edgy/gender neutral. When I share my next baby name ideas with my husband, Josh and my family..they don’t react the same as how I feel about them. Lol. Would love your suggestions/thoughts!

We hadn’t thought of those names at all, but a friend of ours suggested Coralie and then we stumbled across Rhosyn online and it all fell into place!
