Just think of all the self-isolation babies that will be born in December/January that are going to need names!!! Love your channel & your name suggestions so much 😍🙌🏼
For girls, I like Ruby (though it's very popular here in Canada), Garnet, Amethyst (Amy), Sapphire (as an alternative to Sophia), Coralie, Soraya (Jewel in Arabic). For boys: Topaz, Jasper, Sterling, Mica
Alysha Campbell oh my gosh I’ve always have wanted to visit their I’ve heard it stunning😍 but I don’t think it’s cheesy at all, but that’s maybe because I don’t live their, but if you really like the name I’d say go for it!
I love the girl name Willa, I've always been a fan of the boy name William, however its so common now, but for the female version I WAY prefer Willa to Willow!! ❤️
I love Maeve and Sloane!! They definitely sound good together! Edit: oh no! I hope Boaz doesn’t become popular! That and Atticus are my top two boy names!
I absolutely love your videos! I’m way too young to have a baby at the moment (17 😬) but I’m obsessed with babies and baby names so your videos are perfect! 😆
Hi SJ, thank you so much for taking your time to research for our little boy. This is definitely the last baby the Fiancé has told me; if I had it my way I would have 7 😂. Me and my fiancé have put Barnaby, Percy, Archer and Chester on our list. We are going to ask the kiddies there opinion. I love Archer and Fiancé loves Barnaby.❤️
Ahaha I forgot it was Monday! Wow, it has come to the point that your videos are the only things allowing me to keep track of time 🤣 Quarentine is so disorienting
I like Percy for a girls name and have a friend whose daughter is Percy Faith. However, it’s is difficult for a boy to wear in the US as it’s too close to “prissy” which is NOT a compliment. Children can be cruel so remember that when you’re picking out these unusual names. Girls can get away with them easier than boys.....voice of experience here!
I’ve got Beatrix Blythe (as a first+middle set!) on my list! Love these videos SJ, thanks for being a ray of sunshine in these frankly shit times 🌻☀️🌼✨
I notice that whenever you pronounce Hebrew names you mispronounce the endings. For example: Raziel would be pronounced Raz-ee-el (3 syllables) or Ramiel is Ra-mee-el. Also names like Azariah (which I know you mentioned in a previous video) is pronounced Az-uh-rye-uh not Uh-zar-ee-uh. Just trying to be helpful! I love your channel and all the great ideas you have! Much love and stay safe!
My name "Sahondra" is from Madagascar and it is the name of the flower of the Aloe Vera, a plant well known for good hydratation and its healing virtues! If it interest anyone 😅🥰
I always knew I loved the name Raphael but hearing it pronounced in this video...ahh my heart just fluttered. It’s perfect. Sophisticated, angelic, strong, soft, not too simple, not overly complex...I’m pretty sure it’s my top boy name at the moment. And funnily enough, you mentioned my number two in the video as well, which is Kasper💕 also, I wrote down Wyndham, Ramiel and Rhodes after this...ahh, so many glorious names out there😍😇
A nickname for Ezekiel besides the basic Zeke could be EZ like “easy.” My dad had a good friend that went by that instead of Ezekiel & I love it! Takes a long, somewhat traditional name & turns it cool for everyday!
Names I like Girl Elia Brinley Boy William Lucas Grant Nicholas Lincoln Finnick Girl middle names Forsythia Briar Elizabeth Boy middle names Graham Blake Names I like but would not acutely use Bellamy Oliver Willow Willa
a few names I found in our genealogy to share- girls; Addie/Adelaide, Caldonia, Arvasena, Evalena ! , Beulah/Bessie, Meredith, Eurena (Rena,) Armenia (Nina), Euphamia (Fanny.) Boys; Gru, Meredith, Ellsworth, and Wycliff.
Hi SJ! I am due with triplets- 2 boys and a girl- and would love your help with names! Our last name starts with S, so probably no first names that end in S. I like strong, traditional names (Charlotte, Margaret, Amelia, etc) that age into adulthood well and don't end with the "ee" sound. I also want them to have names that aren't so popular, so they don't have the same name as a lot of peers. I particularly need help with boy name choices... I like Oliver, but my husband doesn't!
How about Kyle (you could even spell it Kile or Kiel) as a nickname for Ezekiel? I know the usual nickname is Zeke, but I always love an unexpected nickname!
My sons name is Leonidas, haven't met anyone who has the same name. If we ever have another boy I love the name Ares, and for a girl I love penelope and ada!
@@allpartiedout6975 there is two ways to pronounce it. One way is Leo-knee-das and the other is Leo-Nye-das. He is named after the king of Sparta, for better understand there might be a few RUclips videos!
What about Lilyanna for the couple (James and Katie) who were thinking about lily and sienna. Could be pronounced as lily-anna or lily-ahna. Less common than Lily and Sienna but incorporates the Lilly and the na sound?
one of my friends is named Tabitha! we call her tabby, tabby cat, and tabith (but instead of i we say ee sound) such a unique name, she's half British half American and it really suits her!
Not pregnant, just love names- but my boyfriend and I (together 7 years) had names set for our future kids since we started dating. Well, I apparently have a cousin with the exact same taste because she used the same or very similar names. We love Eloise, she has an Ella Louise. We love Jade, her second daughters middle name is Jade. And her sons name is Nathaniel, which was our only boy name. Any other suggestions? I typically like older names that aren’t weird, but do like some out there ones as well. However my boyfriend likes very traditional names.
I absolutely LOVE Maeve and Sloane. Sloane was my all time favorite girl name, but my future husband's last name is Malone, so I had to give it up : ( He is not a fan of Maeve, but I am working on getting him to consider it!
Had my twin girls last week. I had one twin’s name picked, Antigone Rose. And I went with Ramona June for the other but I really don’t like it, the hospital just pressured me into it. Idk if this was in the video because I just started watching, but if not, can I have some help? I considered things like Salome, Andrea (pronounced ahn-drey-uh), Delilah, Maeve, and Dorothy.
Rosalyn Gummer Congratulations! I think those are very lovely names but if you don’t like them it’s ok to change...one of mine didn’t get officially named for six weeks. Isolde? Edith? Nova? Elara? Seraphina? Celeste/Cecilia? Mariposa? Agnes? Sybil? congrats again & enjoy your babies! ♥️♥️
Rosalyn Gummer I definitely agree with Lily if you're not in love with your baby's name you should definitely change it. The names you've listed are lovely; however, if you want names that match without being obvious I would suggest Thomasina Zaria which means twin rose. And I think Thomasina and Antigone go well together and have a very similar vibe.
With a name as important as Antigone, I feel her twin sister could really suit the name of another female hero from the Greek tragedies, like Alcesti :) I don't know if you're familiar with the myth of Antigone, a story of justice (human vs divine) brotherhood and bravery in which antigone would go against the tyrant's rules to be able to give due burial to her brother (such a strong female character) But there are other female protagonists you could get inspiration from :the first who come to mind and the most fitting (because it's always related to family devotion and bravery, just like antigone) would be Alcesti, which is a rare and also very pretty name. The husband of Alcesti (you should into the myth further) had married her with the help of apollo, however, apollo wanted the favour back, and asked him to sacrifice himself for it. Scared he asked his parents if they were willing to take his place but they weren't ;the only one willing was the sweet and brave Alcesti (who represents the unconditional love) . After hearing her story and being moved by it heracles (hercules) will go in the underworld to bring her back to life Otherwise there are important figures like Medea, Elettra and even Elena (of Troy) however these are a bit more controversial figures , but the names and stories are extremely fascinating. You should read into these a bit more, just because it would be nice that both your daughters could be linked to such important stories :) as a second name you could always use another flower or colour name (so your twins would have very different yet very meaningful and compatible names)
24:39 I’ve been crushing on Rosemary and it have a lot of nicknames options Rory, Romi, Rosie Tallulah “Lulu” Delilah “Lilah” Verona “Vera” or “Ronnie” maybe even “Vena” or “Vinnie” Seraphina “Sera”, “Raffi”, “Phin/Finn”, “Senna”, “Phina” I’ve been crushing on Emmanuella right now as well, it has so many nicknames options “Emma/Emmy”,”Nell/Nellie”, “Ella/Ellie” Marigold “Goldie” or “Margo” Primrose “Prim”, “Rosie”, “Posie”, maybe even Priah if you choose a middle name starting on A Nicolina “Nina”, “Nico/Nica”, “Lynn”, “Colin”, “Coco” Rafaella/Raffaela “Elle/Ella/Ellie”, “Raffy”, “Fely”
Names I loved Sloane Kit Maeve Odette Arabella Florabelle Freddie Boaz Heathcliff Clover Honey Lottie Love day 😍 Pearl Rocco Victoria Rose Roux Gideon Archer Percy (except he’s lame in HP) Know a girl Hudson, I like it. I think a floral middle name like Rose is perfect.
What about Romulus instead of Remus? He was the twin Brother of Remus in Roman mythology and also he was the founder of the city of Rome. There are also a lot of good options for nicknames for Romulus.
We’re adding a Great Dane pup to our family in May if you feel like making a dog list 😂 Our first dog is called Tallulah so we are trying to find something equal to her name.
So far I love Gilligan, Gulliver, Wilder, Angus, and Pongo. My husband likes Duke, Forrest, Gunnar, and Achilles. Meeting in the middle is gonna be tough ha!
I love Hudson for a girl! Boys names for girls are me and my partner’s thing for sure. We love Riley or Sloane if we have a girl. Loved this video! So much fun.
I’ve only ever known Hudson for a boy, but I think it would be really cool for a girl! I know a girl named Mason spelled Maysen and that is a very masculine name so I think Hudson could work! For the middle name I love Sj’s suggestion Hudson Hope 💕
I love the name combo Evangeline Aria. I love the Phantom of the Opera and it always reminded me of it because it could translate to “angel of music”. 🥰
Can't decide on a middle name for our daughter due in 2 weeks!! Her name will be Autumn and atm we are stuck between Rose and Skye for the middle name, but would love more suggestions! Would love something Scottish if possible. 3 syllable surname
I love the name Posie as well😍 i'm four month pregnant and looking for a name with a nature / mythology meaning to it.. My husband is Korean and we live in Korea, so we also want a name that wouldn't sound too weird here (or be too long)... I thought about River or Rosen or Hades, but my husband doesn't really like those 😆 any ideas?
Thank you for the ideas for a twin sister for Romi!! We loved the suggestions Indie and Aria. So we are now shortlisted to Gigi, indie or aria 🤣 now onto deciding middle names. Thank you! Xxx
Millie Milo Misha Ryker Willa Anya Alayaa Josie Bonnie Billie Luca Maci Whyze Or wyze Lyza Jolee Neeve - some of my fav baby names ! I loved all of them mentioned in the video!! 😊
I would prefer Constance (steadfast) instead or perhaps Charity (love). I also like Honor. Prudence means sound judgement, but in the US someone who is a prude is know as someone who doesn't "put out" or is overly proper aka boring, stiff, a goody goody.
I love baby names so much! I’m 17 and have never met someone else with my name. I’m lilybeth, it’s all one word. My parents always loved lily but wanted something more so thought of the queens nickname lilybet and kind of made up my name. I love Scandinavian names, my favourites are Isak and Freja 💞
Got a bit tearful over your note at the end. My baby is due in August and trying to stay positive in this situation. Worried about making mum friends, but I guess maybe this will bring us all closer! Anyway...also a bit YES to Hudson for a girl ❤ xx
I’m pregnant with my third baby and we don’t know the gender yet. We already have two girls named Alessia (5) and Eliana (3). We like more uncommon names but nothing too out there. We were wondering if anyone had any suggestions?
Heidi Walker lovely names! For a boy perhaps you could keep the A in there with Marlow or Arlo (Arlo might be too popular). For some reason, reading those two names out loud it feels like Cory for a boy or Cora/Coraline for a girl slides in there naturally. Otherwise what do you think of Adaline for a girl? Congratulations to you!
SJ!!! I just want to say thank you so much for your videos ❤️ my dream was to have a baby girl, I watched one of your videos where you suggested the name “Amalina” and I changed the A to an E, so now we have a beautiful little Emelina born 3 weeks ago and she wouldn’t be named that if it wasn’t for you!!! Thank you xxx
I have watched most of your videos from 2017 up to 2020 videos.. I am having a baby girl with Irish Heritage from her Father side.. SO i am looking for names that means delightful and charming.
What about Romi and Ona? I have a good friend called Ona and it’s got a lot of different meanings in different languages. It means “one” in Irish, it’s the Lithuanian translation of Hannah which means “grace” and in Catalan it means “wave”.
I'm due May 30th! Our boy's name has been set in stone for ever... Abel Ozias Daniel. I love the meaning and flow but our girl name, Naomi Willa Danielle, feels so... my heart isn't leaping like it does for Abel. Why is Naomi so highly used but I've never met one!? 🤔😣
Naomi is a lovely name. It’s #200 in the U.S. but I haven’t met many either. My cousin is Daviana Naomi and her sister is Danielle Bianca. Very similar to your likes lol
Just think of all the self-isolation babies that will be born in December/January that are going to need names!!! Love your channel & your name suggestions so much 😍🙌🏼
I’m convinced any name will sound good in your sweet voice!! 💕💕
This is so true!
I’d really like to know your favorite unique names based on gems, stones, and minerals.
Jade
For girls, I like Ruby (though it's very popular here in Canada), Garnet, Amethyst (Amy), Sapphire (as an alternative to Sophia), Coralie, Soraya (Jewel in Arabic). For boys: Topaz, Jasper, Sterling, Mica
Emerald is really pretty! Can call her emme for short
Onyx, Sapphira, Gemma
Malachite, Peridot, Garnet, Pearl, Rose, Sapphire, you should just watch Steven Universe 😁
The nickmame for Ezekiel is usually Zeke, prounounced zeek, in my experience. Hope that helps! Longform is so sweet too
Kate my fiancé’s name is Ezekiel. Zeke. It’s such a beautiful name.
Jesus Christ loves you
When you mentioned Blythe I immediately thought of Anne of green gables😂 Love this video wish I was pregnant so you could give me name advice😂😂
Kate L. I live in Prince Edward Island and love that name but not sure if it’s too cheesy or not lol
Alysha Campbell oh my gosh I’ve always have wanted to visit their I’ve heard it stunning😍 but I don’t think it’s cheesy at all, but that’s maybe because I don’t live their, but if you really like the name I’d say go for it!
@@alyshacampbell5870 I go to PEI every summer to visit my grandparents
@@alyshacampbell5870 I'm from NS , I LOVE the name Blythe ! It so dreamy cause all i think of is Gilbert !
Emily Parker Avonlea is so sweet of a name!!! I love it, never thought of it! Definitely use it!
I love the girl name Willa, I've always been a fan of the boy name William, however its so common now, but for the female version I WAY prefer Willa to Willow!! ❤️
I love Willa!
I have cousin twins, One lot are Willa and Winnie, the other lot are Willow and Lillow.
Wilhelmina......Wilma.....Wylla
@@moniquenorton-knight945 LILLOW? Omg thats like Pichael from rick and morty
I love Maeve and Sloane!! They definitely sound good together!
Edit: oh no! I hope Boaz doesn’t become popular! That and Atticus are my top two boy names!
Lily Grace - I love the name Atticus
Boaz is so cool
Atticus is already a really popular name here in the U.S.
Boaz is cute and unique.
Thats so cool that you like the name boaz! My 8 year old self was OBSESSED with that name!
Our baby boy was born April 2nd in Auckland New Zealand during a level 4 lockdown. We named him Byron Fionn 🥰 we had chosen Freya Maebh for a girl X
I absolutely love your videos! I’m way too young to have a baby at the moment (17 😬) but I’m obsessed with babies and baby names so your videos are perfect! 😆
Freya Langmaid - SAME!! But I’m even younger than you lol 😂
Same I'm 17 too and honestly the only way I can satisfy my longing for children is via Sims 🤣🤣
Amy Elizabeth Johnston Omg same!!! Sims is literally my life and I only really play it to have babies 😂😂
I’m 13 so ...lol I just love her personality and names they’re so gorgeous
Jesus Christ loves you
Hudson for a girl is amazing!!!! Hudson paired with a girly middle name would be too sweet!
My friend has a Hudson and Cooper for her girls... sooo cute
I love how you so often pay homage to the parents names when choosing names. It never occurred to me to do this. It's lovely ❤️
Hi SJ, thank you so much for taking your time to research for our little boy. This is definitely the last baby the Fiancé has told me; if I had it my way I would have 7 😂. Me and my fiancé have put Barnaby, Percy, Archer and Chester on our list. We are going to ask the kiddies there opinion. I love Archer and Fiancé loves Barnaby.❤️
Roxie Lees Archer is such a cool name!!!
Roxie Lees My cousin is named Barnaby ♥️
His brother’s name is Walter
My little brother is called Barnaby and he has very cute nicknames like Ba ba, barns and barney. I love his name.
My fiancé has Viking links, could you do a video on Viking boys names?
I like saxon linked to vikings
Odin, Thor, Torin, Loki
Ahaha I forgot it was Monday! Wow, it has come to the point that your videos are the only things allowing me to keep track of time 🤣 Quarentine is so disorienting
Here are some good Arabic boy names : Anwar (light), Jamal (beautiful), Salem (protected), Jad (generous), Idris (studious), Jahleel (hope).
I like Percy for a girls name and have a friend whose daughter is Percy Faith. However, it’s is difficult for a boy to wear in the US as it’s too close to “prissy” which is NOT a compliment. Children can be cruel so remember that when you’re picking out these unusual names. Girls can get away with them easier than boys.....voice of experience here!
I literally named my Sim Azalea Rose today 😂 I love Azalea Rosenwyn/ Rosenna as a name too
I’ve got Beatrix Blythe (as a first+middle set!) on my list! Love these videos SJ, thanks for being a ray of sunshine in these frankly shit times 🌻☀️🌼✨
I notice that whenever you pronounce Hebrew names you mispronounce the endings. For example: Raziel would be pronounced Raz-ee-el (3 syllables) or Ramiel is Ra-mee-el. Also names like Azariah (which I know you mentioned in a previous video) is pronounced Az-uh-rye-uh not Uh-zar-ee-uh. Just trying to be helpful! I love your channel and all the great ideas you have! Much love and stay safe!
For the one who liked Hazel but has a last name with the l ending... what about Hazely (Haze-Lee) it’s Hazel but with a different ending.
Thank you for your encouraging words for expectant mothers are this difficult time. You're so thoughtful SJ 😘 xxxxx
My name "Sahondra" is from Madagascar and it is the name of the flower of the Aloe Vera, a plant well known for good hydratation and its healing virtues! If it interest anyone 😅🥰
For a gentle boy’s name I like Amias, it has a strong M but means “good friend” 😊
I always knew I loved the name Raphael but hearing it pronounced in this video...ahh my heart just fluttered. It’s perfect. Sophisticated, angelic, strong, soft, not too simple, not overly complex...I’m pretty sure it’s my top boy name at the moment. And funnily enough, you mentioned my number two in the video as well, which is Kasper💕 also, I wrote down Wyndham, Ramiel and Rhodes after this...ahh, so many glorious names out there😍😇
Florabelle is the cutest 🤩
10:00 I think Flora would also just be a great option!
I JUST HAD A VIDEO IDEA!
how about boys' flower names!?
With romi I think indi would be really cute that way they'd both be 4 letters and both end in an i.
Oooh Romi and Aria! I love it! My sister is Romy and I’m Robyn and it’s such a good match, but perhaps it would be too twee had we been twins.
Robyn McCormick I love both yours and your sisters names! Beautiful! Xx
@@rachelhj1988 oh thank you! Funnily enough, poor Romy has a speech impediment and can't pronouce "R". So we're Womy and Wobyn :D
Well I’m Rachel Wrigley, she’d had a field day with my name haha I hope i you are all keeping safe xx
Had my little boy a few weeks ago, called him Bruno Montgomery ☺️

Another option with the Florence / Arabella couple would be Floella
My sons name is Leonidas, haven't met anyone who has the same name. If we ever have another boy I love the name Ares, and for a girl I love penelope and ada!
Theres a famous RUclipsr with a son named leonidas.

How about Omer for the American/French/Arabic name? Technically a french name but very similar to Omar which is a popular Arabic name
I appreciate your hard work SJ, I know it's late😴. Thank you ❤️

Know a girl Hudson, I like it. I think a floral middle name like Rose is perfect.
I would love to see a video where we (the viewers) tell you the names of our babies and you react to them! Love you SJ!
What about Romulus instead of Remus? He was the twin Brother of Remus in Roman mythology and also he was the founder of the city of Rome. There are also a lot of good options for nicknames for Romulus.
Romi is now a new fave of mine!! Never heard it before but such a lovely name 😍
I have always loved Monarch for a boy or a girl. It thinks it sounds strong yet delicate, but my family hates it. Thoughts?
I like the sound but without the meaning! I think you might he stuck with people expecting you to have quite a big ego
I think Romi and Rayne sound really good together.
It’s actually in a book, there’s a Maeve and juniper. Juniper is the good witch and Maeve the bad. The book is called wise child.
My favourite baby girl’s name is the one I gave my only daughter: Bethany Kathleen
Me and my family all have themed names. My siblings are called Autumn, Hazel and Robin.

Italian name my great Italian gram philomena , arianna, mariana, sienna, vienna, adriana
Delilah raine , delilah wren or winter
I like Erasmus for boy and Isabelle for girl. So lovely!
I love Hudson for a girl! Boys names for girls are me and my partner’s thing for sure. We love Riley or Sloane if we have a girl.
Loved this video! So much fun.
I’ve only ever known Hudson for a boy, but I think it would be really cool for a girl! I know a girl named Mason spelled Maysen and that is a very masculine name so I think Hudson could work! For the middle name I love Sj’s suggestion Hudson Hope 💕
I love the name combo Evangeline Aria. I love the Phantom of the Opera and it always reminded me of it because it could translate to “angel of music”. 🥰
Florabelle is so beautiful !
In literary names I love Zadig from Voltaire's Zadig ou la destinée, but I never hear it anywhere.
When she said Zephyr I thought she said "Zeffia"... which I kinda like! 😄
Kristin Kolp my full name is Bethia and that is similar to Zeffia!
@@bettyjoy6361 That's a pretty name!
Can't decide on a middle name for our daughter due in 2 weeks!! Her name will be Autumn and atm we are stuck between Rose and Skye for the middle name, but would love more suggestions! Would love something Scottish if possible. 3 syllable surname
Autumn Flower/Florence
Another shortened form of Cecilia could be Celia
I love the name Posie as well😍 i'm four month pregnant and looking for a name with a nature / mythology meaning to it.. My husband is Korean and we live in Korea, so we also want a name that wouldn't sound too weird here (or be too long)... I thought about River or Rosen or Hades, but my husband doesn't really like those 😆 any ideas?
Apolline Lucy i know of a korean baby named Romi (Ro Mi), which is like the western name Romy, which comes from rosemary (like the herb)! I love it 🥰
how about FOR GIRLS-- Ara, Hana, Sana,Yuna , Jina,Jia, Naari
Boys - SANG, Jaedan, Jae Sun(Jason) , Jay, Sarang
The name Lumi is cool- it means snow ❤️
Apolline Lucy - Aella, Juniper, Iris
What about Primrose with the nickname Posie? Primrose has the nature link as it's a flower.
zephyrin is my partners grandfathers name!!! I want to use it as a middle name since it's so unique!
Oslo Zephyr
My gosh I’m going to binge watch your baby name videos! I’m 37 weeks pregnant, don’t know the sex and we don’t have a name! 😩
yay!! i love these videos where you name people’s babies
Boaz is super popular in The Netherlands! I know at least 4 around the age of 18-20, funny how a name can be super popular in a specific country☺️☺️
Thank you for the ideas for a twin sister for Romi!! We loved the suggestions Indie and Aria. So we are now shortlisted to Gigi, indie or aria 🤣 now onto deciding middle names. Thank you! Xxx
I love Indie with Romi.
What did you decide on? =)

Neeve - some of my fav baby names ! I loved all of them mentioned in the video!! 😊
How do we feel about the name Prudence (Prue) been binge watching Charmed tv show and it sounds so good but very old
Sara Cook I always think of Danny Lavery from Dear Prudence when I hear this name- he goes by “Prudie”
I would prefer Constance (steadfast) instead or perhaps Charity (love). I also like Honor. Prudence means sound judgement, but in the US someone who is a prude is know as someone who doesn't "put out" or is overly proper aka boring, stiff, a goody goody.
I love baby names so much! I’m 17 and have never met someone else with my name. I’m lilybeth, it’s all one word. My parents always loved lily but wanted something more so thought of the queens nickname lilybet and kind of made up my name. I love Scandinavian names, my favourites are Isak and Freja 💞
I was just thinking another name that starts in A and ends in Y is Arly, and Arly rose is so cute together (are-lee)
Got a bit tearful over your note at the end. My baby is due in August and trying to stay positive in this situation. Worried about making mum friends, but I guess maybe this will bring us all closer! Anyway...also a bit YES to Hudson for a girl ❤ xx
How about Indiana Rose:) And Roux as a middle name is so cute!
At the moment I’ve really been loving the name Jago for a boy but I can’t decide if it is wearable or not
Rachel Rattigan yes I love Jago Jonah that’s a great suggestion!x
For the person who likes Remus I’d like to offer Romulus, Roman, and Reynard as possible options?
I’m pregnant with my third baby and we don’t know the gender yet. We already have two girls named Alessia (5) and Eliana (3). We like more uncommon names but nothing too out there. We were wondering if anyone had any suggestions?
Heidi Walker lovely names! For a boy perhaps you could keep the A in there with Marlow or Arlo (Arlo might be too popular). For some reason, reading those two names out loud it feels like Cory for a boy or Cora/Coraline for a girl slides in there naturally. Otherwise what do you think of Adaline for a girl? Congratulations to you!
i rlly like the names ramona and lyra for girls:)
What about Linnea, Elodie, Elvie or Mabel??

SJ!!! I just want to say thank you so much for your videos ❤️ my dream was to have a baby girl, I watched one of your videos where you suggested the name “Amalina” and I changed the A to an E, so now we have a beautiful little Emelina born 3 weeks ago and she wouldn’t be named that if it wasn’t for you!!! Thank you xxx
Your videos are so relaxing! I love love love them!
I have watched most of your videos from 2017 up to 2020 videos.. I am having a baby girl with Irish Heritage from her Father side.. SO i am looking for names that means delightful and charming.
What about Romi and Ona? I have a good friend called Ona and it’s got a lot of different meanings in different languages. It means “one” in Irish, it’s the Lithuanian translation of Hannah which means “grace” and in Catalan it means “wave”.
On my language it means "She".
I'm due May 30th! Our boy's name has been set in stone for ever...
Abel Ozias Daniel. I love the meaning and flow but our girl name, Naomi Willa Danielle, feels so... my heart isn't leaping like it does for Abel. Why is Naomi so highly used but I've never met one!? 🤔😣
Naomi is a lovely name. It’s #200 in the U.S. but I haven’t met many either. My cousin is Daviana Naomi and her sister is Danielle Bianca. Very similar to your likes lol
@@allpartiedout6975 because I love the name Abel. It's the popularity of Naomi I'm struggling with.
Love Romi and Margo together! Instead of Hazel maybe Lucy, they both have that soft vintage feel
Hi SJ! I’d love if you did another name game or question list, something to keep us name lovers occupied! 😁💘
I like:Aria
Arabella Rose
