[Opinions] A sister for Jasper
Hi, I used to post on this site many years ago and last year I posted asking for advice about naming my son. We went with Jasper, and we are now expecting our second child, a girl. I would love some opinions on the following names and how well you think they work with Jasper! If you have any suggestions for other names, I would love to hear them as well. The only caveat is that we can’t use floral names or most nature names, as our last name is four syllables and contains multiple floral elements already. Thanks in advance!Names on our list:
Athena
Cordelia
Edith
Juliet
Octavia
Sabrina
Sylvia
Aurelia
Cora
Mabel

I love Edith, Sylvia, Aurelia, and Mabel.
I like Juliet, Cora, and Cordelia.
I'm neutral on Athena and Octavia.
I dislike Sabrina. I think all sound good with Jasper. Other names I think have a similar feel: Alice, Augusta, Enid, Greta, Maeve, Nedda, Verity, Winifred.
Jasper & Hadley
Jasper & Olive
Jasper & Brooke
Jasper & Clio
Jasper & Iris
Jasper & Priscilla
Jasper & Amber

I know siblings named Jasper & Evelyn! From your list I like Jasper & Aurelia best
From your list, I like Cordelia, Edith, Juliet (perhaps better as a mn), Sylvia and Mabel.
Love Juliet and Aurelia. I actually named my book character Aurelia, with the nickname Relia. Overall, a lot of really good names. Congratulations!
My top three are:Octavia
Cordelia
AthenaOctavia is fab, I really like it a lot. Cordelia is also very nice. Athena is not a name I'd use, but it is still pleasant with a cool history.I'm not wild about Sylvia or Aurelia (my least favourite), and would rank Edith, Juliet, Sabrina, Cora and Mabel as OK... none of the names are bad or names I wouldn't like to see irl. I will note that I work with three people with babies named Mabel! So it seems like it's still going strong popularity-wise, at least in my area.Names that give me similar vibes:Adeline
Ariadne
Antonia
Augusta
Beatrice
Clara
Corina / Corine
Cornelia
Daphne
Delphine
Elspeth
Emmaline
Estella / Estelle
Evelyn / Eveline
Frida
Helene
Leonora
Lucille
Lucine
Ludovica
Martha
Minerva
Odilia
Olympia
Ophelia
Sylvaine
My oldest is Jasper too! From your list I love Edith and Mabel. I always wanted a Jasper and a Ruby for siblings, but I have a niece named Ruby, so couldn’t use it. Other suggestions are Martha, Lucy, Phoebe, Milly, Maisie, Cleo, Zoe, Sadie, Hannah, Alice, Nancy and Eve / Eva.
I would definitely choose Athena.

I really like Edith, Sabrina, Sylvia, Aurelia, Cora, and Mabel. I think they would all go well with Jasper. Edith is probably my favorite.
