Middle name help! :)

[JFTB1177]

All of us have "J" names in our family, even DH and I. My boys are:

Jacob Aaron & Julian Alexander.

We are totally unsure about a girl's name as we can't find any "J" names we like for a girl. If it's a boy he will be Jordan, but we need a middle name! I liked Jordan Armand but DH hates the name Armand. The middle name doesn't have to be an "A" name but it would be nice.

Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Anselm
I really like this name but where I'm from it's pronounced "Anslem" so it simply won't do for me.
Abijah is a nice Bible name.

I love Justine for a girl...

we got "stuck" in a "J" theme for a while--i say stuck because we liked it then, but are now purposely breaking the trend.

anyway, my girl names were always Jordana Isolde and Joslyn Elora.

pp's already suggested middle names i was going to.

Choose a family name. A loved relative or respected ancestor.

And for a girl's name beginning with J, you can't do better than the spunky, classic and literary Josephine.

Thank you so much guys for all of your suggestions!!! I really like Avery and Augustus so far!

i love Jordan Avery

and i have Jordan on my girl name list , i think its a wonderful name for a lady.

[JFTB1177]

Thanks for the girl name suggestions too!!!

I actually do have a fav "J" girl name but can't use it because it is too close to my DS2's name- Julianna. I can't use that name if my son is "Julian", right? lol that would be too weird. Rats.

Those are awesome suggestions, thanks philomom!

Adorkable, I thought about using Jordan no matter the sex too! Still a possibility! I really like it for a boy though.

Jordan Aiden
Jordon Aaron
Jordon Abraham (I kind of like the flow of this one!)
Jordon Adam
Jordon Aviv
Jordon Armon (I like this one a lot too!)

That's all I can come up with at the moment. Good Luck!

I like Jessamyn for a girl.

Juliet and Justine are two of my favorite girl's names.

For boys, I like:

Jordan Amon
Jordan Avery
Jordan Avram
Jordan Arthur
Jordan Abel
Jordan Alden
Jordan Andrew
Jordan Antony
Jordan Arlen
Jordan Arnon
Jordan Asher
Jordan Avel
Jordan Avraham



...Arnon sounds a lot like Armand, and it has a fabulous meaning. "Rushing stream" in Hebrew

[terrordactyl]

you could spell it Jourdan if its for a girl

girls names

Jacqueline
Janea
Jasmine
Jillian
Jocelyn
Jodie
Joëlle

It's too bad you and DH are Js. My friends husband is a J and she is an A so all boys have J names and her girl has an A name.

I love the name Josie for a girl, but it is a family name for me so I am biased.

I love Julia too, but with your son Julian it would not work. What DH and I did is went to a website like babynames.com and put each of our favorite names on our favorite list, and then printed them out and compared them.

[JFTB1177]

Thank you so much for all the great suggestions, this is really a HUGE help!!!

Sumner Rain- you know, my other fav names for a girl are "A" names! DH and I always said if we had more than one girl we would use "A" names, but there is no way to know if that will ever happen lol.

I like Juliet! Is that too close to Julian?

Juliet's a great name. But with brother Julian, I'm afraid that's just too cutesy.

However, a pp's suggestion of Jessamyn is terrific. Jessamyn West is a great author (The Friendly Persuasion etc.) and it's unusual without being outlandish.
