    DD1 - Amelia ..

    Everything seems to sound funny with this.. any suggestions?

    We're obviously early in the brainstorming process but names we liked from the first go round were

    Boys: Miles; Henry

    Girls: Meredith; Ellis; Adelle; Ingrid

    I know, we're more on the "classic" train..

      I really like both boy names, but I think Henry goes better with Amelia.

      Of the girl names I prefer Meredith and Adelle, and I think they're about equal with how well they go with Amelia. I do think Ellis sounds better with Amelia than any of the others, even though it's nms.

      Those all sound good with Amelia. . Ellis is my grandfather's name and dad's mn, so I can't even imagine that being a girl's name though!

      I think Henry Miles would be a great name with Amelia. Amelia and Henry doesn't sound strange. I really, really love Adelle and Ingrid. Amelia and Ingrid sound lovely together and Adelle and Amelia sound lovely together. I love classic names. I'm really loving Ingrid... Ingrid Bergman! Ahhh, love!

      I actually think all of your names go well with Amelia. My personal favorites, though, are both Miles and Henry and Adele.

      I like both of your boys choices and think they'd work together nicely and in either position Miles Henry or Henry Miles

      Girls: Either Adelle or Meredith.
      Immediately with Amelia I thought Charlotte, Olivia, Clementine, or Bethany
