I'm editing and expanding on my list and I need some help.  lol

 

 

Girls:

Lilia/Lilija Genevieve McDonald

Paulina Rose McDonald (Nina)

Maia/Maija Elizabeth McDonald

Zoya Madeleine McDonald

Stephanie Alessandra McDonald

Geneva Katherine Rose McDonald (Evie)

Irēna Judith McDonald

Vera Josephine McDonald

Katarina Rose McDonald

Noelle Katherine McDonald - Not sure of this one.

Thea Rose McDonald

 

Arielle Jade McDonald - I'm not really crazy about Jade so I'm looking for something else.  I hate Marie, Lynn, Grace, and Faith too.

Annika Mireille McDonald

Fiona Audrey McDonald

Vada Elizabeth McDonald

Xanthe Rose McDonald

Susanna/Zuzanna Audrey McDonald

Zaida Ruby McDonald

Nadia Mireille McDonald

Aislinn Jane McDonald

Evelina Rose McDonald (Evie)

Tessa Caroline McDonald - Love this one, but concerned that Tessa is getting too popular.

Daphne Rebecca McDonald

Maeve Alexandra McDonald

Magnolia Jane McDonald (Maggie)

Aviana Mae McDonald (Avi) - maybe add something else on to Mae or use an entirely different middle?

Gabrielle Rose McDonald

Estrella Madeleine McDonald

Anneliese Claire McDonald - does Claire flow okay?  This name is a difficult one to pair up.

Erica Rose McDonald

Calla Vivian McDonald

Ksenia/Ksenija Violet McDonald

Lyra Natalie McDonald

Cassia Noelle McDonald

Seren ____________ McDonald 

 

I also love Phoebe, Niamh/Neve, Michaela/Mikaela, Lorelei, Giselle (love it as a FN or MN), Catriona/Caitriona, Karenna, and Seraphina.  Middle names I'm considering are Valerie, Amelia, Victoria, Audrey, Caroline, Aurora, Athena, Julia, Vivian, Kimberly (a family friend's daughter), Ivy, Melody, Leilani, Rebecca, Vanessa, April (after a family friend), Janet (my mom)/Jean (paternal grandmother.  Her name was Regina but she went by Jean or Jeannie.  Jean is fine as a MN too), Astrid, or Carys (I love it as a first name, but one of my cousins is Kara which sounds too close so it'll have to be in the middle).

 

Boys:

Eamon Francis McDonald

Rhys Alfred McDonald

Lachlan Elliot McDonald

Ronan Jesse McDonald

Dmitri James McDonald

Alton Gregory McDonald

Damon Merritt McDonald - Not sure.

Andrejs Benjamin McDonald

Abram Vincent McDonald

Ephraim Zachary McDonald - ??

Conrad Jensen/James McDonald - Jensen is growing on me.  Do the middle names work together when combined or should I just go with one or the other? Conrad is growing on me as well.  I don't love it, but it's not bad.

Cassius Bryan/Brian McDonald - Debating between spelling Bryan or Brian.

Henriks Joseph Dylan McDonald  (Erik, Hank, Hal)

Stellan Bradley McDonald

Dario ___________ McDonald - I just can't think of anything.

 

I'm considering Raphael (FN or MN), Konstantin (as a MN.  It's pronounced like Constantine), Ira (as a MN), Rory, Salvatore (MN), Hiro (It's Japanese, so not the same as Hero, but pronounced the same), Tennyson (MN, but not completely opposed to it as a FN), Magnus (MN), Lorenzo (MN.  I worry that it's getting too popular for a FN), or Vincenzo. 

 

 

Feel free to match some of the girls' and boys' names up and make more suggestions.  I prefer classics and international variations of classic names (Irish, Latvian, and Scottish especially), maybe a bit unusual.  Gender specific is a must and preferably nothing in the top 200 (if it is, no top 100's or rapidly rising names.  I hesitated to keep Tessa and Thea on the list because they are both gaining. I'm just not ready to drop them right now.  Waiting for the ssa website to release the names for 2016), creatively spelled, trendy like Harper, Harlow, Mason, or Jayden, or obviously made up.

 

 

Alessandra is pronounced AH-less-ahn-dra.

Irēna is pronounced Ih-ree-na.

Mireille is Meer-AY.

Xanthe is ZAN-thee.

Aislinn is ASH-lin.

Estrella is Es-STRAY-ah.

Ksenia/Ksenija is something close to Ka-sen-ya.  The Ks is pronounced almost like it's one syllable though.

Lyra is Leer-ah.  LIE-ra is okay too, but I prefer the softer -ee sound to prevent people from calling the kid 'liar'.

Seren is Seh-REN, like Serenity, but without the ending.

Andrejs is like the Spanish Andres.

Abram is AH-bram.

Cassius is CASS-ee-us.

Dario is DAR-ee-oh.
