I have a family relative, Dawn, that I would like to honor in our daughter's middle name, although the FN I chose sounds best with a two syllable MN and our first and last names are both 4 letters, think "Emmy Lang." I'd like something that includes Dawn or somehow honors it.. but I'm at a loss. Dawn's MN is Marie.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Re: Names that include or honor "Dawn"
Donna
Aurora (goddess of the dawn)
Roxanne (dawn)
Donelle
Donnica
Donata
Donatella
Donae
What about something that has a similar or connected meaning like Aurora, Iola, Zora or Soleil?
ETA: This lists some names that include dawn as a meaning: https://www.thinkbabynames.com/search/0/dawn
Alba
Sol/Soleil
My mom is Dawn Marie and I love her name.
I'd go with Dawn. It's pretty uncommon but not weird.
This. I don't understand when people say they want to honor someone but then they want to change the name. That is like me saying I want to honor my friend Bennett by naming my son Benjamin.....how is that the same?! It isn't....if you want to honor someone, use their name....not something that is like their name or the same meaning as their name.
Does Dawn have a middle name or something that you like better?!
