Looking for a name for my little sister

4 replies

KimGuest ·
Good morning,

I'm pregnant with our 4th child. I hope you can help me out. We prefer first names that aren't super common.
We already have:
Julan Pepijn
Milas Jelmer
Bodil Sophie

So we're looking for a name for our 4th. We do have a few names we like, but can't use because they're too similar, too popular, already in the family, or just don't fit us.
Those are: Julin, Fenna, Arwen, Malin, Marin, Carice, Liv, Anna.

Do you have any other ideas for us?

Best, Kim (and Dave)

    What beautiful names your kids have, Kim and Dave! I also think the names you mentioned for 'little sister' are really lovely. I could easily choose Malin

    Here are some other options:
    J.ulan, M.ilas, B.odil and ...
    Ronja
    Vieve
    Cela
    Neva
    Nieve
    Odet(te)
    Elin
    Erin
    Veere
    Robin
    Isolde
    Eden
    Maite
    Chaja/Gaia
    Femme
    Diese
    Meja
    Solvej
    Tove
    Ylva
    Jaelin
    Fae
    Else
    Vesper
    Saga
    Maj
    Suze

    Do any of these fit your style?

    I especially think Odet fits perfectly with your kids. I find J.ulan, M.ilas, B.odil and Odet really sound great!

    Are you also specifically looking for a first name with 5 letters and a second name with 6, and both with 2 syllables? Because that's the case with the older brothers and sisters too?

    Anyway, here are some less popular names with 5 letters:
    Alice, Aniek, Aster, Babet, Catho, Chloë, Cilou, Ciska, Clara, Danae, Diede, Dieke, Diese, Dinte, Edith, Elske, Ember, Estée, Fajen, Fenja, Fieke, Filou, Flore, Frida, Heidi, Hilde, Indra, Jalou, Janou, Jiska, Jolie, Josie, Julot, Kaisa, Katie, Kensi, Kenza, Laila, Laure, Loiza, Lorin, Madée, Maudi, Minte, Mirre, Mirte, Nandi, Ninte, Nissa, Novée, Pilar, Pippa, Rafke, Rhodé, Rivka, Robin, Romée, Rosie, Sanna, Sasha, Sifra, Silke, Solvé, Tamar, Tanja, Tesse, Tirza, Tirze, Tosca, Tyche, Tynke, Vajen, Valou, Vieve, Willa, Yentl, Zelda, Zenzi, Zonne

    I don't think Odet really fits us.
    Maite is pretty, but starts with the same letter as M.ilas
    Robin is also nice, but too popular.
    I think Vieve and Nieve are beautiful. I'm going to discuss these with my husband.

    @Anouk
    We do indeed hope to continue with the same theme, but it's not a requirement; it's nice if it works out. We already have some options for a 2nd name: Benthe, Carice, Hannah, Lauren.
    We think Jalou, Julot and Minte are beautiful, but they start with the same letters as one of the other kids.
    Chloë, Diede, Flore, Robin, Silke and Tirza are pretty, but we hear them a bit too often.
    Estée, Aster, Cilou, Lorin and Vieve, I find these names beautiful and will discuss them.

    Thank you so much for your reactions! There's already a lot of beauty in there.
