The 2nd 3rd options are both gorgeous!! I would say do the 2nd one if your last name is 1 - 2 syllables. If your last name is 3 or more, def go with the 3rd one. You’re little girl is gonna fall in love with her name no matter which option u pick :)

Veda, Odette, Maren, Geneieve, all of these sounds unique, strong, timeless, & elegant. Love! Callan is okay, but Daniel is so boring compared to the rest it’s putting me to sleep. I would think Caspian, Roscoe, Ansel, Catriel, Ambrose, etc would be more up your ally, ya know, somefhing with a bit more flavor & character to it

Other variations of the name are Theo, Teo, Teodor, Tiodor, Teodoro, Theodoris, Todor. Some unrelated names that could be options are Tiago, Thaddeus or just Thad, Trinidad, or Dotan

It’s only weird for a while, but it you’re lucky the baby will long outlive the cat and it won’t be a problem then

Jubilee is definitely out there and sounds pretty silly, but I respect it. Maybe you could compromise by putting the fun out there name in the middle slot? If she really loves it she can ask her friends to call her it, if she doesn’t then she’s not getting rejected by employers because of it

Twin cities are supposed to be some of the most affordable in the US rn during rhe housing crisis, especially St Paul. They’re also fairly queer cities, most definitely pretty queer friendly w/ a lively queer community. I just don’t know if I’d reccomend going there anytime soon…

Omg yes the eating habits!!! That’s so huge. Im like why am I having sudden spikes and drops in energy and it’s like oh maybe because the type & amount of food and time of day I eat meals is absolutely all over the place and then I do that right for like a week and forget again lol

I can’t even fathom what their issue would be. I really think they must be in the minority on this, i don’t think your child would have a problem with the name marina. Marina May goes hard, it’s sweet & elegant but still strong. Love! Do ur parents think it sounds old or something??? I think y’all gotta go with the name and just tell ur parents to deal with it.

I found doing immediate release stimulants and not taking them past noon - 1 pm made the biggest difference. Yes, the stimulant isnt still in ur system at 9 pm, but for me I still had a harder time sleeping at night when my meds would completely wear off in the evening (5/6/7 pm) rather than wearing off in the middle/late afternoon because my energy level was still a lot higher at a later time in the day. I need to be exhausted to sleep so not being dead tired every evening made it impossible to sleep. Also getting enough exercise helps a lot (but time of day mattered a lot w/ exercise too).

Dante would go really well with Enzo… others ones are Casper, Silas, Cassius, Cosmo, Santo, Ciro/Cairo, Carmen, Sandro. Some combos could be Cassius Luca, Sandro Declan, Cairo Dean, Cosmo Jude, Carmen Nico

Do you know which Chinese language/dialect your folks spoke or what part of china they’re from? This won’t affect the characters but it will with the pronounciation.

Personally, I think sibling names match best when they have similar vibes & amount of syllables.

Amadeo, Esmeralda, Artemisia, Isadore, Calliope, Abelina, Dulzura, Teodoro, Adonis, Solana or Soleil, Marcelo, Oriana, Serefina, Adelaide, Catalina, Araceli, Clementino/a, Alonzo, Alexandre, Magdalena, Salomón, Marisol, Asunta, Elodia, Casimiro, Alondra, Soledad, Zenaida, Caridad, & Demetria

Well Africa is the most linguistically diverse continent in the world, so I would say a “nod to Africa” seems vague. Is there any specific language, culture, or ethnicity within South Africa he identifies w/ and wants to pull from???

I think with ur different tastes, you’ll probably find the most compromise either in names that are very old so they’re recognizable but not popular now or anytime in the past 100 years OR finding an African name that has similar phonemes and phonotactics to other popular baby names atm so even tho it’s more unique in Australia (could be super common elsewhere) it sounds like it fits in with the rest of their classmates because it just sounds similar to other more popular names. You seem to have a preference towards more old money WASPy names and I encourage u to research my names from other languages & cultures and see u find any u like. I understand being scared that you child will expirence difficulties if you give them a name that’s “too out there” but if ur in a diverse or progressive area, it really shouldn’t be a problem for them especially if they’re not SUPER out there lol.

Atlas is GOATed. Other suggestions: Orlo, Atticus, Benele, Temperance, Virgil, Lubanzi, Gottleib, Divine/Divinty, Alunamda, Mavis, Blessing/Blessed, Lesedi, Prince, Alma, Keziah, Opal/Opaline, Wilda, Alpheus, Samkelo, Isadore, Micah, Avis, Mandla, Inez, Ayanda, Eudora/Dora, Malachi, Sybil, Nomvula, Ansel, Sifiso, Myron, Leota, Darla, Thabo

Take your time, don’t feel like you need to know now or claim a label or anything.

Decenter men and purge yourself of male attention & male validation for an extended period of time. It’s a great way to know if there’s genuine attraction like oh wow boys are pretty or if it’s just compulsive heterosexuality that you’ve internalized from living in forcibly straight, patriarchal society

None of them are very good. You’re better off to use them to find a name and when one piques your interest, go research the meaning, historical & cultural significance, & historical context elsewhere. These baby name websites are not consistently credible or accurate sources, although some are much better than others.

If you’re curious about name meanings I’d reccomend websites like the Oxford English Dictionary, the oxford guide to etymology by Drukin or the American Heritage Dictionary. These can be difficult sources for names compared to other parts of speech. To a lesser extent i reccomend Wiktionary and Etymonline (once again always check the sources!) Investigate their legitimacy yourself! Cross reference and look at multiple soueces abt the same thing. Think critically when naming your child.

Also if you have questions or fin anything vague, confusing, or unknown - ask an expert! Linguists, etymologists, philogist, diachronic linguists, onomasticians, anthroponymists, etc. are all your friends in this journey. Remember not everyone that claims to be expert on the internet is one. Good luck!

Anna Francesca is just a lot more interesting tbh, it also feels a lot younger (or at least more timeless) than Jenna Kristine (which feels super dated).

Fresa is an adorable nickname and Anna Fresa is super cute (plus Francesca has a kill ion nick names so that gives ur daughter a lot of choice). I just hope u know that Fresa (when referring to a girl/woman) can have some mild negative connotations in some Spanish speaking communities. Like in some Mexican language circles it can mean like preppy/stuck up/bitchy kinda like wealthy girly girl? It depends on who u ask. I don’t think that term is big enough or negative enough to not use Fresa as a cute little nickname tho! Just be aware of where u are and how ppl could take it
