Baby Names

Name my imaginary 3rd baby...

Note our first two have somewhat unique names...Kaatje is dutch for Catherine and Eloise is French.  So obviously I want an unusual name.  I'd like something foreign, but it doesn't have to be I guess..so what do you think of when you hear these names...

Girls:
Indira (Indie)
Wilhelmina (Willa or Mina)
Marja (Mar-yuh)
Marjike (Mar-eye-kuh)
Greta
Matilda (Tilly)
Neeltje (Nail-chuh...NN Nellie - FWIW my great gramma's middle name was Nellie)
Ola
Marta
Clementine
Ingrid
Roosje (Row-zjuh...NN Rose)

Boys:
Ari
Lachlan
Nico
Maatthijs (Matt)
Joannes (Johnny)
Kellen
Desmond (Desi)
Sullivan (Sully)

I know some of them are out there...so I know they aren't maybe your style...but in general, what do you think?  Any favorites?  Other suggestions?

  • I really like Greta and Matilda. I've never heard Indira before, its NMS necessarily but i think it would grow on me quickly.

    For boy names, Lachlan and Sullivan are my favorite off of your list.

    And just a side note, I had a great aunt named Wilhelmina and she used to go by Minnie which I think could be a cute nn for a little girl.
  • Love Matilda nn Tilly.   I also love just Willa as a full name.   Greta and Ingrid are good as well.  Some of the others I would have no idea how to pronouce!

    For boys I like Lachlan.

  • Boys Nico and Lachlan. Girls Matilda and Indira maybe.
  • I like Ingrid and Matilda, and I think Ola is pretty. My grandmother's name was Ola Mae.
