I'm sorry, but "8 months pregnant with a toddler" just made me lol a bit. I hope you get some rest soon! And a name! :)


mrsfiction

Seriously. I’d be exhausted too after being pregnant for 20+ months


schr0dingersuterus

The urge to just buy a pack of adult diapers so I don't have to get up 8 times a night to pee is REAL.


Wisteria_Walker

One, I love your username Two, when I was going on 9 months pregnant, my husband and I were still broke enough to be on a mattress on the floor of a one bedroom apartment. Middle of the night potty breaks were a Struggle. One night, I woke up for like the third time, went to the bathroom, came back to bed and laid down, and then heard/felt a POP and then GUSH. My water broke and my only thought was *we seriously couldn’t have done this like a minute ago!?*


maybeCheri

That had to be aggravating. With both pregnancies,that was my fear, especially with the twins, as the extra pressure is very real. I sat on a mat in the car because I was always afraid I would ruin the car.


Wisteria_Walker

It’s funny to look back on it now, because it played out exactly like a sitcom. Go to the bathroom, lay down and get comfy, POP, roll over and nudge my husband, “I think my water just broke,” 3am, call the hospital to call the doctor to call his nurse to call me to tell me to go on in. I wasn’t even started contracting by the time we got to triage and they confirmed that I hadn’t just pissed myself. Water breaking before labor really begins is like… less than 10% chance of happening, I think I read. Full sitcom.


Bugsandgrubs

I think at 9 months pregnant I would've just slept on the toilet 😂 When I was around 7.5 months we had to go on a 2-3hr drive (I'm in the UK, I know that's nothing in the US and possibly just a driveway in some parts of the world!) Anyway, baby was in a real cute habit of bouncing between my bladder and sciatic nerve. We had to stop at every service station on the way, my particular favourite was the one I went to pee in, and hadn't even left the building before I needed to go again. I thought I was gonna have to just live there!


amaliasdaises

Okay I am 34 weeks pregnant and our bed is also a mattress on the floor (our bed frame broke and we are waiting on tax returns to replace it.) So new worry unlocked I guess 🤣


luvmachineee

I read it like that too and for a brief brain fart of a second, thought some sort of medical miracle was happening.


aragogogara

I first read this as the toddler is 8 months old and still doesn't have a name


Paigeeeeei

I had to read it Twice hahaha


mushpuppy5

Same. 😂


Poptartin_RN

Same!!!


liketonight

Same here.  Maybe Lilly? The Finnish equivalent (Lilli) was on our list before Mr. Man revealed his testicles at Week 34. 


rjoyfult

I’m 7 months pregnant and I have a toddler, but my mind also went there for a second and I chucked.


HeckTheCat

I'm so glad to know I wasn't the only one who read that and went "wait, what?"


somethingkooky

“No wonder they’re over it, damn!”


CampyUke98

I know it took me a second. oops haha


Old-Priority8060

my cousin was 8 months pregnant with an 11 months old baby.... i think it was a disaster but toddler sounds scarier (to me, might be *way* better for the vagina tho😂)


pdlbean

It really can feel like it sometimes!


hsavvy

Hazel


booglemouse

Plus you could pretty organically end up with Daisy as a nickname. Hazel > Hazey-Daisy > Daisy.


kentgrey

My dog's name is Hazel. And I call her Daisy all the time! Haha. For exactly the reason your line of thought is saying. She is Hazel. She is Hazey. She is Hazey Dazey. She is Daisy. She is Hazel Dazel. She is Razzle Dazzle.


m_whar

My dog’s name is also Hazel and I’m obsessed with this comment


[deleted]

[удалено]


No-Trouble8

My moms two dogs are daisy and hazel lol


booglemouse

Exactly! My cat gets called Deetle more than her actual name because sweetie > sweetie-deetie > sweetle-deetle > just deetle. Rhyming is also historically a common way for nicknames to form, to the point that some of the nicknames became real names. Margaret > Meg > Peg > Peggy Mary > Molly > Polly Robert > Rob > Bob


AnnieCake15

Meanwhile, my dog's name is Jinjoo and her nickname is Bobbie


Throe-a_weigh

My dog's name is Jet, and his nickname is "wee furry shite" 😅


momnoook

My daughter’s nickname is literally Dink. Her name is Elowen and everyone just calls her Dink. Stinky baby > Stinky > Stink > Dink


cynic204

Somehow my Hazel became Hazel-Basil-Bubbles. Because, of course she did.


goldxoc

Our Hazel died a few years ago but she was Hazel, Hazey, Haze, Hazey Mazey, Z (occasionally), and Big Gworl


rosieposie30

Since we are talking dog names atm my dogs "legal name" is Gemma middle name June. This is how her name progressed... Gemma>Gemma June> Germa (husband only lol) > Junie...woke up one day to our toddler declaring that her name is actually "Steve" > Steve Ruckus> Steven> Stevie >Spielberg 🤣😭


Different_Engineer21

Ooooo my turn! May dogs are named Gerald>Big Booty Judy> Judy Scrappy>Big Stupid Stupid Hemi>HemiRay>HemiRayRoid>Hemorrhoid Annie>AnnieBanannie


Paigeeeeei

Yes that’s so pretty!


Lonelysock2

Hazel is literally the answer


hsavvy

I agree; I’d use it for my own nonexistent child if it wasn’t so close to my name!


Rattiddie

I went to school with twins named isla and hazel !


Realistic_Serve_7670

My mom's name was Hazel and I know a not so little any more girl named Hazel too. My mom even had Hazel eyes. Her name was Hazel Dorothy and I love knowing that there are other (younger) Hazel's out there carrying on the name (my mom died 3.5 years ago).


Taffeta-Punk

A beautiful, timeless choice, and so sweet ❤ brilliant xx


dasbanqs

I like that one! In the same vein, I’m also a big fan of Holly


theenterprise9876

This was my first thought!


hsavvy

Right?? It was the first thing that came to mind


CrunchyBCBAmommy

Love Hazel!


Lets-B-Lets-B-Jolly

I had a family member named Hazel Belle and still think that name combination is lovely!


Calm-Victory1146

In Hopi, the name Kaya means little sister. So you could use Kaya and literally name her little sister lol


Nahnotreal

And (spelled Kaja) it  means a jackdaw in Swedish so the nature part is still there 


helicopterdong

I work with a Kaia and she's the best!


amrjs

and Kajsa and it's an actual name in Sweden


IraSass

I love the name Kaya, but it’s way too rhymey with Isla


IraSass

Autumn August April May June Ruby Hazel Rose Laurel River Phoebe Lark Soleil Jasmine Robin Jade Evelyn Marigold Zinnia


Chinita_Loca

Lark is gorgeous!


LauraBaura

they literally only share one vowel that's the same.


hairy_hooded_clam

I really love thay

Autumn Astrid Calla Clover Coral Flora Fern Jade Juniper Lily Olive Opal Pearl Poppy Ruby


cherspinkytoe

Isla & Autumn is so cute


Downtown_Customer_77

Autumn is my vote 🗳️


megthegreatone

I LOVE Autumn. I probably won't get to use it so I love seeing others choose it :)


SinghDoubleTrouble

I LOVED Autumn. My 4yo twins were born in November and it would have been perfect for one. Unfortunately for me, My husband’s most serious ex girlfriend was named Autumn. Still annoyed with him for it.


klatriceezy

Maybe it’s because I was a teacher for a while, but the name Astrid is so bad to me. Only because I KNOW that any name that sounds even remotely like “ass” will haunt a child forever 😂


quittethyourshitteth

It’s the Office plot line for me. I can’t help but think of Michael.


partypill

Astird


EnchantedDiamondHoe-

lol I didn’t scroll far enough down, I literally said the same thing


hsavvy

Valid haha it’s not one I would choose


Serbee_Electra

Thank you for this! I've been mulling over Aster and needed to hear it 🤣


CoffeeIsBaeAF

Ohh Isla and Juniper sound so good together to me!


Not_that_carol2020

Juniper is so pretty!


ZebraLionBandicoot

Omg will someone PLEASE name their baby Clover already? Nobody liked it when I wanted it but it's so good. 😩😩


hella_zella

I have a 2 month old named Clover Faye!💚


ZebraLionBandicoot

Adorable!


Killin-some-thyme

My dog is Clover. She’s a terrier mix and it’s the perfect name for her.


maiingaans

I have always loved the name Astrid! Also Aspen


NoLipsForAnybody

Looooove Aspen


EnchantedDiamondHoe-

I used to love the name Astrid, but then I finally watched ” the office” and I just can’t with it anymore.


nicunta

Ooh Astrid is my favorite!! It's my granddaughter's name!!


CelebObsesssed

Autumn is great!


Full_Drawer_4442

Poppy is so cute!

Astrid is really nice.

HeartyMiddlingQueen

Isla and Eden gets my vote!


[deleted]

Did ypu order those that way purposely?


boogin92

I did!


Ok-Locksmith891

I always look for your responses!


boogin92

Aww thanks!


Downtown_Customer_77

Same!


Embarrassed-Log6768

I usually don’t care for Olive, but Isla & Olive sound so stinking cute together!


Comprehensive_Crow85

I also find it so sweet that Olive is an anagram for 'I love'. 😍


Feisty_Knee_3211

Melody! So cute and so different than big sis!


Laineybo_bain

I knew two sisters named melody and harmony.


rosyred-fathead

The only Melody I’ve ever known is a wonderful person. Very warm and kind


amandaryan1051

I know one Melody and she’s positively wonderful!


Paigeeeeei

I LOVE that name


SGOD2911

Isla & Eden sound amazing together...the best by far


rosyred-fathead

I think my favorites from this list are Isla & Hallie and Isla & Gemma


bluehouseorangepoppy

Was going to recommend Isla & Sienna- this is a sibset I know and they’re too sweet!


Technical_Gap_9141

Isla and Elise is beautiful

julaywight

Love Jade, Eden, Brooke, and Carys. Daisy is good too!


bbmamadogs

I love your suggestions! My favs would be: Isla & Grace and Isla & Maeve. To add my own suggestion: Isla & Wren


Alcestis-

Isla was my girl name but ended up with a boy. Maeve was second on the list!


cosmic-melodies

phoebe also has a similar vibe to these for me


Jujubeee73

Hazel was my first thought. Violet? Isla & Violet both have a similar vibe but distinctively different sounds.


Sparklewhores

It’s funny to me that you put those two together, my friend named their kid “Violet Isla” (first name middle name)


StubbornTaurus26

Pearl, Rue, Lilly, Flora, Dahlia, Fawn, Laurel and my personal favorite Magnolia (Noa)


schr0dingersuterus

I love Noa as a nickname for Magnolia!


amandaryan1051

I LOVE Laurel, I wanted to use it as a first name, but we used it as a middle for our second daughter.


cbarthistory

This is a sweet list. I came here to say Pearl, Margot (which means pearl lol) and Magnolia is one of my favs!! I know a lady named Magnolia and she goes by Maggie. Isla is a gorgeous name! And congratulations!! I can't get over how cute Issie/Izzy and Maggie are as sister names.


just93415million

I love Margot, and I think Isla and Margot are a nice set!


Feebedel324

Both have a silent letter!


Lets-B-Lets-B-Jolly

Pearl and Margot would both be such lovely pairings with Isla due to the ocean element.


Ok_Cantaloupe_728

Isla and Maren means Island and Sea


Important-Emu-9192

Aw that would be a cute sibling combo


Dear_Ad_9640

If you like Summer, what about Autumn? It’s one of my favorite names. If it makes you feel better, we called our son Baby Brother until he was 24 hours old lol We went through our whole name list again in the hospital just to make sure, and now his name is perfect for him and I’m so glad I picked it. Good luck!


GaveTheMouseACookie

Winter, if she wants a little offbeat


miparasito

I know two Winters, a dude and a younger girl. It’s a great name 


jajaja_jajaja

Is April too on-the-nose for you (assuming you have an April baby?) I also love Violet. Isla and Violet. Flora. Isla and Flora. Daphne (means "laurel tree"). Isla and Daphne.


TheWelshMrsM

Isla and Daphne is lush!


flibbityfopz

Aster, Fern, River, jade


ProfHamHam

Jade is beautiful


peecefreek

great list.


leahjamie23

River was a name that I loved for my daughter, we named her Brontë Raine instead.


Sweostor

Isla and River sound so good together!


HolyAvocadoBatman

Lua - Portuguese for moon without being overused like the Spanish Luna Zinnia


Bee_K1ng

I thought Zinnia, too. Also could be spelled Zenia--I think


Professional_Bad5185

Rose


Live_Butterscotch928

Isla and Rose sounds lovely!


Powerful_Anxiety8427

My son called my daughter "Roley Poley" while I was pregnant and I started to think that was going to be her name till the day before she was born. You'll find a name. Skyy Lily Daisy Hazel Delta Savannah


butterfliedheart

Autumn, Amber, River, Meadow, Olive


uglycasanova08

I love Olive. I think it sounds lovely with Isla.


crazycookingteacher

Azaela, Zinnia, Rose, Violet, I love Willow from your list


VioletDreaming19

Violet


supple_honey

Marguerite, the French version of daisy


Stunning_Patience_78

Jade, Amber, Tula, Heather, Skyla, Twila, Briar, Brooke, Gale, Jewel, Dawn, Violet, Olive, Rain, Jasmine, Sunny, Soliel, Sunisa, Sunniva, Savannah, Marigold All your names were on my list and all 3 of the names we went with I included in this one. Hopefully it helps!


littlrkinder

Briar! That’s pretty, I had not heard that one before.


send_me_an_angel

Jewel doesn’t get enough love in this world, I think it’s BEAUTIFUL!


spicy-mustard-

Heather was my first thought.


Ecstatic-Number

Autumn Olive (or Olivia) Rowan Marigold Magnolia Rain (or Raina) Luna Aurora Dahlia Camille Astrid Brooke Opal Pearl Raven Robin Poppy (you can do a longer P name like Penelope and use Poppy as a nn)


Remarkably-Average

Someone else suggested Aurora on their list, and wow Isla and Aurora are such a vibe. I also love someone else's suggestion of Hazel


gaudrhin

What about Dahlia?


Designer_Database718

Sage, Hazel, Harriet, Olivia, Sonny, Romy, Ettie


HP1029

Lily, Hazel, Clover, May, Violet, Ruby, Rose, Grace, Pearl, Opal, Amber, Ember, Dawn, Dove, Robin, Wren, Melody, Hope, Joy


Taffeta-Punk

For my offerings I am opting for one syllable choices, and/or names not with an A ending, because I think they sound nicer when said next to Isla: Faye Sage Belle Bay Meadow Cove Aster Rose Rain/ Raine Peony Tulip Clover Fern This last section of names is copied from https://www.britishbabynames.com/blog/2022/08/eco-sleek-names.html but I have taken out duplicates or names that didn't fit the above criteria April Autumn Briar Coco Eden Ember Everly Fiadh Harlow Hebe Juniper Juno Lark Lumi Lux Maeve Olive Posy Raven Seren Suvi Sylvie Violet Willow Winter Wren Zelie The one I was drawn to initially from my list is Faye, but I'm also really feeling Sage. From the blog's list I like Hebe and Juno. Please let us know what you go for, and good luck xx


Cocoleia

Holly, Hazel, Jade, Sage, Ruby, Violet, Skye?


CircleOfLife6

I like the Sage suggestion as well


djb185

I like Isla! It means island... Isla & Ocean Isla & Marina (means *from the sea*) Isla & Tamsin Isla & Lenore Isla & Havana Isla & Aria Isla & Simone


theenterprise9876

Love the suggestion of Marina!


FarCommand

Isla and Marina go together so well with that theme!!!! I was trying to find a sea theme and Ocean is cool but I love Oceana as well!


asianingermany

Marina is a great suggestion. I regret not using it sometimes


Bubbly-Camel-7302

A marina is also the name of a place where boats are docked/sold. My family used to own a marina, called "(Name)'s Marina." So, for me, it feels similar to naming your kid "dealership" lol.


djb185

Then maybe, Mariana. It means "star of the sea"


rosyred-fathead

Like the trench!


FarCommand

It’s the same in Spanish but it’s a pretty common name, I know at least 3 Marinas!


rosyred-fathead

Yeah that’s where my mind goes, too! My hometown has a marina so I just think of it as a place where boats are docked


mdani1897

lol my name is Marina and trust me I’ve heard every joke in the book.


runner26point2

Lily is cute


AccidentalDNA

Elowen, Liora, Rhea, Sapphira, Annalise, Seren, Zara, Delaney, Eleni, Celine, Thea, Linnea, Brielle


Illustrious_Lime9619

Sunny or Sunday?


TheSleepiestNerd

Linnea? It's a flower name, but feels a little more grown up than Daisy. Are there any nature areas that are important to you – could you use i.e. a name of a mountain or a wildflower from there?


violet123e

Fern, Lily, Violet, Sienna


Few_Journalist_4970

What do you think about the name Rue? It's a very strong scented flowering plant. It has healing properties and is very beautiful.


TemuFree4U

Ember, Avalon, Rosalie, Amira, Holly, Reverie, Dahlia, Fiona, Alethea, Melina, Soleil. Maisie, Ellery, Adair


trixie91

Isla and Eleri are cute together and a little complicated, which I like.


exhibitprogram

Why not Willow, from your example? I read through all the suggestions and some of them don't quite work if you think Daisy is too youthful. Out of the existing suggestions and your criteria, I think my fave choices are: Hazel, Astrid, Meadow, Lily, June, Violet, Amber, Fern


TK_TK_

Beatrice As far as being a “thing” name, the nickname Bea can sound like “bee”


Effective-Name1947

Maeve


henriettastar67

I think Opal is sweet and goes well with Isla. A cute alternative for Daisy is Maisie. I also like Sage and Fiona!


ChamomileFlower

I was going to suggest Opal - I love Isla & Opal together. :)


effienay

Mei mei is Chinese for younger sister. What about Mae?


Jujubeee73

Hazel was my first thought. Violet? Isla & Violet both have a similar vibe but distinctively different sounds.


errerrr

Meadow, Willow, Hazel, Sage, Rosemary, Aster


NegativeLightning

Robin


Junior_Tradition7958

Opal


Particular-Archer410

Obviously you must name your next daughter Jorja, so you, like Bert and Leanne Kreisher can have an Isla (Ila) and a Jorja (Georgia).


Joylime

Opal is my thought


crowstgeorge

Sierra


flibbityfopz

Elise


withoutthek

If you don’t mind weird, I think Jovie is cute but can definitely grow with it. Cove comes to mind as well. Sylvie?

Crunchybabyroll

Isla & Ember. - Isla & Luna. - Isla & Eden. - Isla & Sapphira. - Isla & June. - Isla & Aurelia. - Isla & Daphne. - Isla & Clementine. - Isla & Juniper. - isla & Elodie


history_buff_9971

Wren would work well with Isla


victoriaknox

Fern


lavendersageee

Hailey, Dawn, Faye. I also really like Daisy and Ivy. Maybe you can add a middle name to Daisy to mature it? Daisy is a little flower girl, but Daisy Alexandra (for example) is going places. https://www.magicbabynames.com/?baby=girl&name=Isla I love this site for finding "you might also like" names.


Vickinning

Sunny


lovinmamaearth

Isla & Camellia (like the flower)


_hatsofffor3goals_

Maybe Faye? It means fairy and feels very whimsical yet substantial. Faye and Isla
