A little sister for Arthur and August!

Hi, we're looking for a girls name to go with Arthur and August. We love Aurelia, Eleanor and Audrey for example. Suggestions are welcome!

Re: A little sister for Arthur and August!

  • Are you looking to keep the 'A' theme going? I like all of your choices, but Eleanor is my favorite with your boys' names.

    Suggestions from nymbler: Adelaide, Aurora, Eloise, Imogene.

    Thanks! I really love Adelaide and Eloise! And I'm not trying to keep the 'A' theme going, I just like a lot of names that start with 'A'. (:

  • Since Arthur and August are both very British (I LOOOVE them both BTW...Arthur was on our short list for Edward), I'd go with another British name like:

    Bronwyn
    Amelia
    Phoebe
    Martha
    Claire
    Beatrix
    Hazel
    Louise/Louisa
    Cordelia
    Aster
    Millicent

    I really love your pick of Eleanor though too!

    Thanks! I really like British names, I live in the UK (:.  I love Alexander and Edward too! If this baby was a boy, we'd probably called him Edward. We like Amelia, Louise, Hazel, Claire and Phoebe!

  • I think Aurelia is a great match for Arthur and August, as long as you don't mind the pattern.
  • First of all, I love the names, Arthur and August. Spot on my naming style!

    For a little girl, I'd actually go towards a different letter of the alphabet. Sure Audrey would be two syllables and have an A and a U in it, but if you have more children, you'd kind of be stuck, wouldn't you?

    Eleanor is lovely. Some other suggestions:

    Eloise, Heidi, Elaine, Flora, Bronwen, Cora, Annette, Breatrix, Fleur, Julia, Louise, Greta, Adele, Cecilia, Astrid, Aurora, Felicity, Clara, Isolde, Lara, Matilda, Alice, Lucia, Coralie, Edith, Florence, Gwendolen, Margot, Jocelyn, Lillian, Madeleine, Rosalind,  Vivian.

    I'm more drawn to the letter U in your sons' names rather than the A, and I think it would be a nice subtle theme. Another possibility is to have the two boys start with As while the girl could end in an A.

    Personal picks from my above suggestions: Julia and Louise. HTH!

  • Ive never been a huge fan of all siblings having the same beginning initial (my nephews and niece are carson, Corbin, and Carlee) but since you already have two I would go with Aurelia and Audrey

  • The problem with Aurelia is that I keep thinking areola....as in nipple.

    Having two A kids is one thing, but once you have three, it really gets into the cutesy territory. I'd really consider a different letter. You could stick with vowels if that's your style. Eleanor is nice, and seems very in line with your Arthur-August name style.
