[Opinions] Ignatius
Im really loving/obsessing over Ignatius at the moment. I think it may be topping Caspian for my top name!Probably the reason is that I named my beautiful new Trombone Ignatius
(His full name is: Ignatius Caspian Timotheus Pierrick Claude LN)My question is: What would you name 2 boy siblings and 2 girl siblings to Ignatius?For boys I thought maybe:
Ambrose, Cedric, Remus, Caspian or Maximilian
girls:
Arabella, Constance, Evelyn, MinervaIm a bit stuck!

Ignatius is brilliant. I also really like the nn Iggy. One of the kittens was very nearly Ignatius, but I ended up going with Leonidas.I think Ignatius & Caspian would make nice brothers, personally.Ignatius & Leonidas (Iggy and Leo, perhaps)
Ignatius & Veritas
Ignatius & Octavia
Ignatius & Zipporah (Iggy and Zippy)Other ideas:
Emerson, Octavian, Solomon, Tobias, Aurelius, Auberon, Prosper, Octavius, Lucien
Florence, Olympia, Hermione, Aurelia, Juniper, Romilly, Verity, Zephyrine, AlcyoneAnything you like?

Auria
Bibiana
Julitta
Odiliaand brothers:I love your Ambrose, Maximilian, and Caspian, and alsoBarnabas
Benedict
Cassian
Cornelius
Cyprian
Edwin

Finnian
Marius
Oliver

I love Ignatius. Any of the names you've listed would make a beautiful sibset. You have the best named trombone, ever.
With Ignatius I like to use other saintly names. Benedict, Agape, Peregrine, Scholastica, Nicodemus, Gaius, Clotilde.

Oh! I love Peregrine and Gaius! THanks :)

I love Ignatius! It's been a longtime favourite :-)Of yours, I think Maximilian and Constance go best with Ignatius. I love both of those, BTW.I think if I had to choose two names from each gender to match Ignatius's style I'd choose... hmm... Evander, Aurelius, Ophelia and Concordia.

Oh! Aurelius is great! It fits so well, Id forgotten about that! Thanks :)

*headdesk*Who in their right mind thinks this is a:usable as a name and b:attractive in the slightest way. It sounds like ignoramus.

PleaseIf you ever feel the need to comment on any of my posts again.. Dont.I didn't ask whether you liked the name, I asked for sibs for Ignatius. If you had said I can't see why anyone would like it and then reply with something helpful that would be fine. But your post was idiotic.

Maybe, oh, Catholics?It is a saint's name, after all. And I don't see how Ignatius sounds anything like "ignoramus".

I like Ignatius. For the siblings out of the names you have listed, I say Cedric and Caspian for the boys and Constance and Evelyn for the girls.

Oh, wow. All of your sibling names would be stellar. You can't miss with any of them. If I had to pick two, I'd say Ambrose and (Sulis?) Minerva as little sibs for Ignatius. But they all have a chic flair to them.Others you might like as sibling to Ignatius:Rex, Tarquin, Linus, Peter, Barnaby, Milo, Stephen, Wolfe, Stirling, Gervase, Rupert, Cyprian, Noel, Oswald, Laurent / Laurens / Lauritz, Roderick, Desmond, Porfirio, Moritz, Casimir, Theodosius, Alban, Roland, Clement;Dulcie, Henrietta (Etta), Valeria, Muriel / Muirgheal, Laetitia, Clemence, Paloma / Jemima, Petra, Eugenia (nn Genia ?), Eleanora, Lucasta, Lucinda, Theodosia (nn Dosie, Dodie ?), Lois, Amalthea, Drusilla, Verity, Saskia, Natalia, Anouk, Sabine, Leda, Artemisia (nn Misia ?).

I went through an Ignatius phase when I was maybe 12. I still think it's pretty cool, but haven't thought about it in a long time.I think Caspian goes very well with Ignatius. I like Maximilian with it too. Also maybe Lucius? And for girls Claudia immediately popped into my mind, and also Justine and Theodora. Going with the Roman thing, I guess. :)

I think it's cute.
