Default I have no idea.. name help please!

Hi

As the title suggests i am really struggling to find names for bub number 2. (i haven't even gotten to middle names! and time is ticking!)
I have a few names that i like but nothing that i 'love'. My problem is that i mainly like names that end in 'y' but my sons name is Riley, so i need something that goes well with that and i don't really want to have two names that end in 'y'. So i've tried to come up with some other names.
here is my list so far:

Boys:
Samuel
Oscar
Angus
Joshua
Jack
Harry

Girls:
Cameron
Amelia
Lila
Evelyn
Cate
Jade
Audrey
Sierra

So i need your help, i know i'm asking alot but please give me your honest thoughts and opinions - i'm also open to any suggestions!

x

I am in the same boat, why we found out bubs sex, at least we rule 1 set of names out. Happy to suggest some though:
girls Abby, Abbie, Amity,Audrey is really nice. Billie, Bonnie, Bonny, Christy,Daisy,Emmy,
Evie,Georgie,Gypsy, Holly, Lily, Lizzie, Lorelie,Lucy,Maya,Meg,Milly,Molly,Naomi,Natalie,Ne lly,Peggy,Peony,Ruby,Shelley, Stacie,Tilly, Trudy. Ok some are'nt great but you just never know.
Anthony, Bailey, Clay, Cy,Danny,Darcy,Eddy,Gray,Harley,Harry is good I think,Henry, Jay,Louie, Murray,Ollie,Sidney,Timothy,Toby,Ty,Zachary.
Good luck, I have to get inspired now and start looking again.

Sorry it would help if i read this properly to start with: I read it as you wanted a Y ending name, I am blaming it on baby brain. (redface)

My faves would be Harry, Angus and Joshua for the boys and

Amelia and Evelyn for the girls, those two names are just beautiful and on my list for a bub too!!

GL with it all!

Boys:
Samuel - Like it, goes with Riley too (Samuel or Sam)... have you thought of Samson?
Oscar - OK
Angus - That was our 'boy name' before DD but I've actually gone off it as it is getting quite popular, otherwise like the name and goes with Riley too.
Joshua - Not bad, goes well, and could be shortened too.
Jack - Nice name but way too common for me
Harry - Nice name, but as you say Harr-y and Rile-y, but I don't think that matters.

Girls:
Cameron - Love it
Amelia - Bit too popular, I know 3 new baby Amelias this year, otherwise very pretty name
Lila - Don't like it, don't know why.
Evelyn - I really really like this and I think it goes well with Riley
Cate - No I don't really like it, but I don't really like nicknames as names if you know what I mean.
Jade - Not my fav but a nice name....
Audrey - Like a lot.
Sierra - Don't like it at all, sorry.

Sorry for not liking some of them!! Good luck!

Pip
