Suggest a classic with spunk girl name

austenreader85 · February 2015

I'm a recovering name addict...total relapse in the last few days since we've decided to TTC #3 in the next few months. Looking at our old girls name list and it feels like something is missing.

Elizabeth will be the middle name. Top contenders right now are: Margaret and Catherine/Katherine. DD is Anastasia Josephine (Annie) and DS is Theodore Robert (Teddy). We do like nicknames but it doesn't make or break it. On paper our top names are perfect. Margaret was DD's picked name until about 30 weeks and Catherine was going to be the middle name until a week or two before birth. But I feel like they're missing some kind of pizazz, or are perhaps too usual compared to the siblings. We still want something relatively traditional though. Last name is two syllables and starts with B. I'd love to see your suggestions. TIA!

I like Penelope with your sibset but depends on what you consider classic! Bronwen has "spunk" of your two choices I like Margaret! Best of luck!

Lorelei came to mind. Pipper. Sadie. Elanor. Julia/Juliette/Julian. Seraphine.

I like Margaret, because then your sibset could be Annie, Teddy, and Maggie...which I think is cute, but LOVE that they have adult names that sound fantastic.

I'm the exact same with girl's names...LOVE classic names but still want something a bit quirky with some spunk. It's hard. One of my favorites is Eleanor, but DH is not a fan (yet).
