Hi hi!
I’m Natalie, 28 years old, and together with Joeri. I’ll soon be giving birth to our first baby. We’re super happy, and everything is ready except for the name. We don’t know what it’ll be yet. We like a bit of unusual names, but not too out there. And we also like Dutch names, but that’s not a must. These are our options, new suggestions are very welcome!

Girl:
Marlou Phine Leah Merle Xan Niene Elin

Boy:
Rein Iven Jules Lieuwe

What do you think?

Love!

    Hi,

    Personally, I think Merle is really nice for a girl. What do you all think of Yinthe?

    And for a boy, I’d go with Jules.
    But I also really like Finn!!

    Good luck with choosing, and good luck with the birth !

    Of the girls, I really like Marlou and Elin!

    Jules is really nice for a young one
    My dad is called that
    I think Nine is the cutest from your list of girl names.
    The rest not so much.
    Renate might also be nice

    Hi everyone,

    Thanks so much for your suggestions. I wasn't able to reply earlier because our little girl decided to come a bit early.

    On September 2nd, our daughter was born (three and a half weeks early). Luckily, she's perfectly healthy and we were able to go home quickly.

    Her name is Elin Merle Marie.

    She's very sweet and calm, and we're absolutely overjoyed. We decided on the name at the last minute, but we're really happy with it.

    Love, Natalie
