I have a 2 year old boy named Phoenix Edward Brooks*, and recently found out I’m pregnant again! The baby will be born in June, and we’re already racking our brains for names. We like “different” names – like Phoenix – who was named after the mythical bird – and would like something that goes well with Phoenix. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
At the moment she likes Leo/Leonardo for a boy, but doesn’t have any favorite girl names.
Here are some ideas to kick things off:
Boy names | Girl names |
---|---|
Alistair August Deacon Evander Gideon Griffin Horatio Ignatius Jude Malachi Matthias Maverick Raphael | Briar Daphne Ione Keziah Magnolia Penelope Saffron Saskia Tanith Tatiana Tirzah Verity Xanthe |
What other names would you suggest for Phoenix’s younger brother or sister?
*The last name isn’t Brooks, but does start with b and have one syllable.
