My children are Sophie Grace and Grant Joseph. Help me figure out my feelings on our front runners.
Note: Big Sister who is 5 picked Lily Rose which I was surprised at actually liking it despite being two flowers and therefore a little corny but it flows nicely and would be sweet if DD got to name the sister she’s been asking for for several years.
Also, yes, we like Norah with the “h”. I know that’s not a popular spelling on here haha
And lastly, we don’t want to use Evelyn as a FN bc it’s so popular.
Thanks in advance!

I like Lily Rose and that sister picked it, but I agree about the 2 flower names. I also like Norah June, although it might be too similar to Norah Jones the singer.

Thanks — hasn’t thought of Norah Jones. She’s not really a thing anymore though, is she?

If you're not into the double flower, have you considered mixing elements of the name your daughter picked with the other names? Such as Natalie Rose, Norah Rose, or Paige Lily?
I think Lily and Rose are both common enough names that most people will not immediately pick up on the double flower. Obviously people who spend their time on name board are more tuned into that stuff than the general public! Ha
I picked Lily Rose because it is nice, classic, ages well and I absolutely love that your daughter picked it

I wasn’t sure if the double flowers made it corny? I’m not particularly into nature (enough to purposely set out to use nature-related names) but I do like feminine names. I was expecting her to choose a name like Princess Marina or something lol She has many stuffed animals named Marina.

I like those things, too, and most people don’t know anyone else’s middle name anyway.

@little_bren I don't think two flower names is corny. Some people might think you really like flowers because of the name, but as you mention middle names aren't even often used, and it is a pretty sounding combination. If you really like it and it has a special meaning because your daughter picked it, I think it's a very nice option! It may even increase your daughter's immediate bond to her sister because she chose the name.
I voted Natalie Paige, love it, but reading through comments made me love Lily Paige as well. It actually goes really nicely with your other kids names.
