Names for triplets

Hi hi,
I'm exactly 14 weeks and 3 days pregnant with triplets. We already have a daughter, Lola-Lizzy "Lola", and we'd love to give the triplets double names too (if they're girls). For boys, we're thinking of James and Tyler, but we have no clue for the third boy. For girls, we considered Holly-Sophia "Holly", Willow-Celine "Willow", and Zoë-Faye "Zoë".
What do you think of these names, and do you have any other suggestions? For both boys' and girls' names.

    Oh wow, that's so lovely!
    I'd go for Holly-Sophie... Sounds more logical or something.. And Willow? I don't find it beautiful. But otherwise, really nice names! Creative of you to already be so far along!
    And I find boys' names a disaster.. So I can't really help you with those.

    Good luck with your pregnancy!

    Congratulations, sweetheart! A triplet set—how exciting and thrilling!
    It’s quite a challenge to come up with 2 sets of 3 names, especially when there are duplicates too!
    What about William, Liam, or River? I think they’d fit well for a boy.
    Personally, I find Willow a bit less appealing, especially paired with Celine. But what would work better is tricky to figure out. I’d probably reverse them, Celine Willow, since Celine sounds a bit more ordinary and cheerful. For Holly, something like Haly could also work.

    Wow, I think all the names you've shared so far are really super! Catchy, beautiful, modern, and special.

    Thanks, Betty!
    I think River is really nice for a girl instead of a boy.
    I like the sound of Haly, but I don't like the spelling; it looks more like Hailee or Hailey.
    What do you all think about Dolly instead of Holly?
  5. Knuffel #6

    I find Dolly a bit too poppy. Hailey is indeed a cool spelling. But I already thought Holly was really nice too! River is indeed quite tough for a girl!

    Holly is cuter than Dolly.
    I think Willow is a really cute name.
    I like River too.
    For boys: William and Liam fit well.
    Maybe also: Mylo, Lennon, Calvin, or Finley.

    Yes, Hailey is indeed more beautifully spelled. I was also fiddling with that, it just sounds nice. And indeed, River can also be a girl's name, didn't think of that haha.
    Dolly, then you get the little Dutch doll Sophia, or is that nice when they're a bit older?
    I also think Finley is nice, fits well too.
    Beautiful English names. We have an old-fashioned Dutch one, that fits us and I don't think my in-laws can pronounce or spell it differently haha.

    What do you think of the names Pixie and London?
  9. Anonymous Guest #10

    Pixie is cute, London is stupid.

    Wow, 3, congratulations!

    Here in the village there's a boy named Woody and a girl named Lilly..

    They're not really my favorites, but maybe you'll find them useful.

    I also know a girl named Bailey.

    Wow, a triplet is quite special! Congratulations!
    You guys are creative with names! I'm not really into double names myself, but I do like the names you mentioned! Like:
    Holly, Zoë, Faye, and Celine.
    But just single names, though that's just my opinion.
    I don't find Willow so beautiful.
    Boys' names are tricky for me, but maybe you'll find something useful here:
    Levi, Zep, Seth, Jake, Lenn, Kian, Liam, Dean.

    Good luck with it all.

    I actually think Willow has a nice, unique charm! It just doesn't work well with Celine. Maybe Willow-Mae?
    I like Holly-Sophia, but Zoë-Faye doesn't really sound good to me...
    I like Pixie, but I think the child might get teased for it later (Pik-Sie)
    I find London a bit too American, though it's nice. Just not for the Netherlands, and I think it's a boy's name.
    Other options:
    Lily
    Bebe (Bibi )
    Cece (Sisi)
    Bella
    Hazel
    Hope
    Lexi
    Katie

    For a boy, Jaxx or Jackson, Mason, Julian, Max, Jace,
    I don't find the combinations for girls very nice, they don't sound so smooth to me personally. I think Willow is really beautiful.
    Willow-Grace
    Willow-June
    I also prefer hearing Hailey over Holly
    Maybe Ruby, Jane, Ava, Lou, Sky, Kate or Joy are names that fit your nickname?
    E.g. Zoë-Kate or Zoë-Lou, Holly-Jane, Hailey-Joy,...
    Ava-Lane, Ruby-Sophie, Marie-Kate

    James, Tyler and...
    Rendall
    Scott
    Dylan
    Ryan
    Logan
    Mason
    Brandon
    Joshua
    Miles
    Denzel

    For the girls, I don't think Willow is a beautiful name.
    Holly-Sophie
    Zoë-Fay
    And...
    Joy-Céline
    Lily-Rose
    Tilly-Kate
    Allie-Grace
    May-Lee
    Jay-Linn

    Or
    Holly - Sophie (prettier than Sophia)
    Fay - Linn
    Zoë - Grace

    Good luck with choosing! And definitely let us know!

    Willow is nice, but indeed fits better with Grace or June.
    Holly is nicer than Dolly or Hailey.
  17. moeder04 Guest #18

    What do you think of:
    Holly - Sophie
    Pixie - Grace
    Lily - Rose

    3rd boy's name: Nolan
  19. Anouk Guest #20

    I’d go for a 5-letter name for the boys again.
    For example:
    James, Tyler and Aiden
    James, Tyler and Bruce
    James, Tyler and Caleb
    James, Tyler and Chris
    James, Tyler and Cliff
    James, Tyler and Ethan
    James, Tyler and Flynn
    James, Tyler and Glenn
    James, Tyler and Kaleb
    James, Tyler and Lewis
    James, Tyler and Mason
    James, Tyler and Miles
    James, Tyler and Nolan
    James, Tyler and Quint
    James, Tyler and Vince
    James, Tyler and Wyatt

    I’m not really a fan of double names, but I think Zoë and Willow are beautiful as first names. I’m not so keen on Holly/Dolly. I’d still choose a first name with 5 letters, because then you’d have 3, 4, 5 and 6 letters as first names. I think that looks nice. I’d go for something like:
    Zoë, Willow and Bella
    Zoë, Willow and Edith
    Zoë, Willow and Faith
    Zoë, Willow and Hazel
    Zoë, Willow and Jadey
    Zoë, Willow and Laila
    Zoë, Willow and Mabel
    Zoë, Willow and Pippa
    Zoë, Willow and Quinn
    Zoë, Willow and Raven
    Zoë, Willow and River
