Okay, so I'm writing this story based on a family friend and her family. She has three sisters and four brothers. I wanted to use the same names on most of them, but there are a couple I still need help with.

How do I turn- Aiden:
and Gemma:
Into names that would fit the late 18th century style?
Thanks in advance!

Aiden >> Albert, Allen, Alister, Abraham, Abe, Adam, Alexander

Gemma >> Gladys, Genevieve, Jennifer, Gwyneth, Grace

Thanks Eden! I'm still not sure on Aiden, but I love Genevieve and Grace in place of Gemma!
Thanks!

What do you guys think of Ginny in place of Gemma?

[-TebowTime-]

Ooo! I like it. I think it would be short for Virginia though.

Other Names with nn Ginny or Genny

Virginia >> Ginny
Gwen >> Genny/Ginny
Genna >> Genny/Ginny
Guienivere >> Ginny/Genny

Hope this helps!

Aiden-> Aaron, Angus, August(in)

I really like the idea of Virginia nn Ginny in place of Gemma.
