Baby Names

Mix and Match Please

Well, we got a BFP! DH and I finally have a reason to look at names seriously now!

I'm going to start with girl names since I seem to love too many of them. The first list of names is my top 5 for girls, and the second list is female family names I would love to honor by using as a middle name. Can you ladies come up with some combinations you like? TIA!

ETA: For the last name, use "Bolton"  

First Name:  
Sylvia
Ruby
Caroline
Norah
Scarlett 

Middle Name:
Frances
Erin
Elizabeth
Marie
Colleen
June
 

Re: Mix and Match Please

  • Sylvia Frances

    Norah June

    Scarlett Marie

     

    FWIW, I love your names. Especially your siggy name (Daphne). We want to use Francis for a boy's middle name and I just adore Sylvia and Norah.

  • I think Marie would sound great with any of your first name picks. My fave is Ruby Marie. And congrats on your BFP!!!

  • Scarlett is NMS, but I really like the rest.

    Let's see...

    For Sylvia, I like Frances, Erin, or Marie as a mn.

    For Ruby... Elizabeth, Marie, or Colleen

    For Caroline... Frances, Marie, or June

    For Norah... I think everything but Erin flows nicely.

     

  • Congrats!

    I like Caroline Elizabeth best, but I also like Sylvia Marie and Norah June. You probably can't really go wrong with any of your choices.

    FN: I like Sylvia and Ruby the best.  The others are fine, they just don't get me that excited.

    MN: Love Frances, Elizabeth, Colleen, and June! 

    Sylvia Frances and Ruby Elizabeth?  Sylvia June?  Ruby Colleen?

  • Thank you all so much! (And for the BFP congrats, and even the comment on my fur-baby!) 

    My first choice has actually been Sylvia Frances, so I am super glad that so many of you picked it!

    (PS If you look above, I put the boy lists up!) 

  • I LOVE Ruby Frances

  • Congrats, Lurkey!!! That's wonderful news. Yay!

    I LOVE Sylvia. I can't even explain how much I love it.

    Did you ever see this thread from back in March? I know you didn't post in the thread, but I also know that a lot of times (especially back then) you just lurk, and don't post. So I just thought I'd share.

    As for combos, of course June goes with almost anything, and is a pretty popular middle name right now. Frances and Marie go well with most names too.

    Here are some combos I really like for each name. They are listed in order of preference, starting with the best. If I've left it off completely, that means I don't like how it sounds at all.

    Sylvia: Sylvia June, Sylvia Frances, Sylvia Marie, Sylvia Colleen

    Ruby: Ruby Frances, Ruby Marie, Ruby Colleen

    Caroline: Caroline Elizabeth, Caroline Frances, Caroline Marie

    Norah: Norah June, Norah Frances, Norah Marie, Norah Colleen

    Scarlett: Scarlett Frances, Scarlett Elizabeth, Scarlett Erin, Scarlett Marie, Scarlett June, Scarlett Colleen

     

    As for your last name, they all sound great, with one exception: Ruby Bolton. That is, IF your last name actually does start with a B.

  • I like Norah Colleen or Sylvia Frances

    I responded to my boy list first, so thanks again for your thorough response! Also, you nailed my concern about Ruby! I sort of stumble on it with the double "B" sound.

    You're welcome!

    Given your response in your other post, I would definitely stay clear of Ruby with your last name. Now it's not just the double B sound, but also the rhymey-ness. Sorry. Sad

    PS: I wasn't trying to get you to say your last name. I just wanted to give you the info you needed, so that you could see if it does apply it to your real last name, kwim? Feel free to edit that out!

  • Ruby Frances

    Caroline Elizabeth

    Norah June

    Congrats!
