A reader named Jen has a daughter named Genevieve Grace. She’s now expecting her second daughter and she’d like some baby name ideas. She writes:
[W]e are looking for another delicate, feminine, pretty name that is not over used, is traditional, and goes well with our last name. So far we like Penelope, but I don’t know if I’m sold on that or not.
The baby’s surname starts with D and has just one syllable, so Jen would like the baby’s first name to contain at least two syllables. (And end with something other than D, probably.)
Here are some names that I think might work:
Anastasia Angeline Aurelia Beatrice Cassandra Clarice Claudia Clementine Coralie Cordelia Cynthia Eleanor Eloise | Eugenia/Eugenie Evangeline Frances/Francesca Harriet Helena/Helen Isadora Johanna Josephine Letitia Lucinda Lydia Marguerite Marianne | Marlena Meredith Miriam Oriana Sophronia Sylvia Tatiana Theodora Theresa Valencia Venetia Vivienne Wilhelmina |
Which of the above do you like best with Genevieve? What other girl names would you suggest to Jen?
