Hypothetically,...

[natural]

...what would you name siblings for, Caspian and/or Lilia? Warning, this may seem like a long ramble or a whacked post. Especially, by someone who is not even TTC any time soon. But I really need help to ease my mind and to help inspire me towards other names. I have been obsessing with this as if I was actually having kids, right this moment. Lol I have tried for months to think of it on my own, and have been trying not to annoy, Berries with my annoying post. But I figured, what are Berries here for, right? (At least it's better than making up fake pregnancy stories.)

I know for sure if I have a girl her name would be Lilia. It would have been Liliana, which I still love, but it irritates me beyond belief when people pronounce is as -anna instead of -ahna. Yes, I know, very mental.

In the case of Caspian vs Sebastian. I have loved the name Caspian for years, but thought it was too much for a name. So a couple of months ago, I have come to like Sebastian, but not as much as Caspian. I thought I should settle for the second best because it might be more accepted towards people. But then, I thought, why make myself unhappy (with potential name regret) to please others, who may only call his name in passing. My family has had the chance to pick names they liked, so I should be able to as well. I mean I can even see the name, Caspian stand on it own as a doctor, lawyer, pirate, author, artist, teacher, athlete, whatever he wants to do in life. And for those who cannot handle the name, Ian is a nice alternative (which holds meaning to me since Ian is another form of John).
`
So, if I ever have one boy and one girl, their names will be Lilia and Caspian, but If I have more...here comes the problem. Heck, I might not even have any boys, but I just want to be prepared, which may seem to add fire to my insanity. I know siblings don't have to have matchy names, but I don't want a Caspian, and his siblings name is either Joan or Adam. I will save middle name suggestions for another post, but I want to at least be content with first names. But suggestions are welcomed.

I know these names are not everyones cup of tea, but if you could offer anything. So what siblings would you give each name?

Caspian and
Percival
OR
Darcy

Lilia and
Isadora
OR
Charlemagne

Thanks ireland, Percival never crossed my mind. I actually like it with Caspian, but one of my sister's dad was named Percy (short for perhaps Percival or Perseus). Would that be too weird?

Also, although Isadora is cool, I actually thought Lilia and Isabeau would be nice too.

Thank you very much.

Any one else?

How do you pronounce Cleome? I have an idea, but not entirely sure.

[sunshine.10]

It's pronounced clee-OH-me. It is a really beautiful flower!

[natural]

Thanks sunshine, I have added it to my list. I, Googled the flower and they are uniquely beautiful. I have never heard of it before and like the sound of it. I have always had a guilty pleasure for Cleopatra, but thought it was too much; and Cleo was just to short. Cleome, seems to be a happy medium.

Not that it matters, but have you ever met a Cleome before?

I have also added Fraser/Frazier to my list. Not sure as a first name, but sounds cool if I can use it in a middle.

Yay, I'm glad you like those names! No, I've never met anyone named Cleome, but it remind me a lot of Naomi, which seems to work very well as a first name!
