Help give me name ideas for Baby #3
Just found out I'm having baby #3. I am starting to think about ideas for this baby. Not sure if it's a boy or girl, but I'm betting on another girl.I have a 4 year old, Lila Caroline and a 15 month old, Rosalie June (Rosie). Our last name sounds like Waller.I don't want another R or L. I Would prefer a 1 or 2 syllable name, but I like longer ones too. I'd like to avoid flower names. I'd love to have an ending that's not an -a or -ie. I really like Lila, Rosalie and Mae or something along those lines. Three different ending sounds. Not a huge deal for the right name though.My frontrunners:Adele or Adela
Alice
Anne (Annie)
Dorothy (Dottie)
Edith (Edie)
Evangeline (Evie)
Harriet
Hazel
Imogen
Mae
Margaret (Maisie)
Susanna
ViolaI love but can't use:Agnes (husband vetoed)
Beatrice
Evelyn
Eleanor
Ruby
Tess
VioletI need major help with boys, because I only like:Amos
Arlo
Theodore (Theo)Can't use:Graham
Emmett
Henry
Isaac
OliverPlease give me your suggestions! First names and combos appreciated. This forum helped me choose Rosalie, which I was a bit unsure about but now I love it!!

Ones I think would go great with Lila and Rosalie:
Adele or Adela - you may also like Delia or Adelia
Susanna
Viola
(btw if it matters, i pron. this one like the Shakespeare character VYE-uh-luh not like the instrument vee-OH-luh or vye-OH-luh)Instead of:Evangeline is beautiful but does seem a bit long w/ your other girls (2, then 3, then 4 syllables) - Evelyn would get my vote instead, but since that's a no, perhaps Avaline/Aveline (AVA-line or av-eh-LEEN?), also Angela or Angeline (this is pretty and a nice variation on Angelina)
Agnes - Annette or Abigail
Beatrice - Bethany (Beth, Betsy) or Reese
Eleanor - Nora or Annora or Linnea would be pretty with your other girls, also Elena, Elaine, Elliane (elly-ANN), Alaina
Tess - Theresa (you can call her Tess and your hubby can call her Resa ;))Boys:
I'm not a huge fan of your favorites, personally. Instead of:
Graham - Grant, Gareth, Gabriel
Emmett - Abel, Emeric, Emerson, Everett, Merritt/Merit
Henry - Harris or Harrison,
Isaac - Isaiah, Isaias/Esaias(ie-ZAY-us/ee-ZAY-us or eh-ZAY-us), Erich/Erik, Ezra, Jacob or Jacoby
Oliver - Evan or Evander, Oscar, You may also like:Dashiell (b)

Maeve Cassandra - or Mae Cassandra
Maeve Cordelia - or Mae Cordelia
Maeve Sabrina - or Mae SabrinaI also think Alice and Hazel compliment your girls' names...Alice Cordelia
Alice Fiona
Alice Matilda
Alice Vivian
Alice Winifred
Alice WrenHazel Dorothy
Hazel Margaret
Hazel Constance
Hazel Gretchen
Hazel Tamsin
