Nameberry expert help: finding creative match with the letters A and U

[withinreason]

Hello!

So I need the creative nameberry peeps to come up with a few ideas for our unintended family "theme" for names! As I was signing our Christmas cards, I realized my name, my husband's name and my son's name all had "a's" and "u's" in them - so it would be cool to think of a few unexpected matches!

Our names: Paul, Shauna and Atticus

I like that the A and U are seperated in Atticus' name, so I was thinking along those lines names like:

Callum
Tatum
Tallulah

Would love to see other ideas too! It is like the ultimate cross-word match! ha ha!

Thanks!
Shauna

I'm no expert of nameberry or anything elsewhere, but I love a challenge. Hope I can help you out a little!

For boys,
Sullivan
Mulligan
Marcellus
Jacques
Arthur
Marceau
Marcus
Auden (I know there's no separation btwn the chosen vowels, but really liked it, esp with the author reference)
Jaguar (although it's pretty far "out there", IMO)
Magnus

For girls,
Toula or Tula (meaning: "light")
Ursula
Claudia
Aurelia/Aurelie (again, couldn't resist smushing the vowels for such a pretty name)
Bluma (meaning "flower" in Hebrew)
Danube (nn Dani?)
Dunya (another literary name)
Dulcia or Dulcina
Eugenia
Eulalia
Finula

[mill1020]

Giulia/Julia
Giuliana/Juliana/Julietta
Isabeau
Jacqueline
January
Justina
Junia
Keturah (Old Testament name)
Luna
Luisa/Louisa
Luella
Ludmila
Lucilla
Lucretia
Lucinda
Luciana (love this!)
Luca (could be unisex)
Malu (Hawaiian, meaning "peace")
Marguerite
Nuria
Pascua/Pascuala
Paulina
Usha
Raquel
Rufina
Samuela
Subira (Swahili, "patience")
Sula (Old Testament/Literary name)
Shula ("peace")
Sulola (nn Lola?)
Suria/Surya (Hindi)
Susan
Susannah/Susanne
Turia
Uma
Umbria
Ulla
Uta ("YOO-tah")
Zula

There were more, but I left out some that just didn't seem useable. Another suggestion: you could use an A-containing first name and Lou as a middle (or part of a double barreled first).

My recommendation is ...

AtticUs [&] UriAh

[and]

eUdorA [&] isAbeAU

... a sibset comprised of ancient-vintage vowel names with the letters "a" and "u".

My recommendation is ...

Paul [&] Shauna

[and]

Auberon / Aubrey / Auden / Audra / Audrey / August / Augusta / Augustus / Augustin / Aurelia / Aurelius / Aurora / Austin / Autumn / Beau / Chauncey / Claude / Claudia / Isabeau / Laura / Laurel / Lauren / Maude / Maurice / Vaughn

... a family set comprised of names with the letter sequence "au".

But, they already have a son named Atticus, which is why she asked for more names with A&U but not next to each other.

Awesome! These are great suggestions! Was also thinking Tulia - but on baby chat boards everyone says they have to correct and say "Not Julia, but Tulia" ha ha! It is so much fun looking for names like this! I think the idea of ancient/Roman names too!
