    Since you have two J boys, maybe two L girls? Some names that work with Lauren and Lillian in the family...

    Lane Amanda
    Lark Amanda
    Layla Amanda
    Leila Amanda
    Leslie Amanda
    Lindsay Amanda
    Lindsey Amanda
    Linden Amanda
    Liv Amanda
    London Amanda
    Lucy Amanda

    I think Sisters Lauren and Lane sound really nice.

    Or perhaps another alliterative name, like Lauren Lillian?

    Alice Amanda
    Allison Amanda
    Amy Amanda
    Ainsley Amanda
    Aspen Amanda
    Ashley Amanda
    Ashlyn Amanda
    Auden Amanda
    Ava Amanda
    Avery Amanda

    I think sisters Lauren and Auden sound really nice.

    Or perhaps something Biblical, like the boys?

    Delilah Amanda (to share the l tie in with mom and sis)
    Chloe Amanda (Christian Bible only)
    Eve Amanda
    Miriam Amanda
    Naomi Amanda

    There are lots of other ideas. What are you leaning toward so far?

    Good luck!

    I like the pp poster's idea of sticking with an L name, especially since you and your first daughter both have L names and all male family members have J names.

    Lacey Amanda
    Lorelei Amanda
    Lucille Amanda
    Louise Amanda
    Momma to Finn & Elizabeth, the joys of my life.


    Favorite girl names: Catherine, Tess, Olive, Violet, Cora, Adele, Cosette, Harriet, Hazel, Roxanne, Vianne, Claudia, Madeleine

    Favorite boy names: Shepherd, James, Malcolm, Archer, Atticus, Alexander (Lex), Felix

    I agree. I really like an 'L' name as well. I think it'd be sweet. Or perhaps an A name, since Lauren has the same middle initial as her first initial? Some that I like that I think go with Lauren, Joseph, and Joshua, and also sound nice with Amanda.

    Leila/Layla (I prefer Leila) Amanda
    Lea/Leah Amanda
    Lila Amanda

    Amelia Amanda
    Abigail Amanda
    Ada Amanda
    Adeline Amanda
    Alena Amanda
    Alexandra Amanda
    Anna Amanda
    Annabelle Amanda
    Aurora Amanda
    Audrey Amanda
    Ariana Amanda

    I really like Lesley Amanda, actually. Lesley/Leslie & Lauren seem like a great sibset to me. Also, I like the suggestion of Lindsay/Lindsey Amanda, but feel Lesley Amanda flows a bit better.
    In current favor of...:
    Boys: Ian, John, Lincoln
    Girls: Marin, Lena, Merraina
