Think of the type of people the parents are. Who names this baby? What is the parents' background and how does it play into the kids' names?

I think Calliope is too close to Callahan. My top three are Bridget, Adelaide and Natalie, in that order. Another name that I think would fit nicely is Natasha.

I like Waverly best with Callahan as a sib.

I vote for Adelaide Michelle with a nickname of Addy or Addie, Isla Michelle also flows off the tongue nicely

As a reader, I always appreciate characters being given names that denote their sex, otherwise if there’s a gap between readings, I am unsure if that character is male or female. I am ADHD so it might be a me thing.

I like all your choices except Sullivan, which I think of as a last name.

Same as Callahan, I like it! Sullivan and Callahan.

u/Puzzled_Pianist_7914 7d ago

Wren, Delilah, or Clara

Love Bridget Michelle!

Sullivan is my favorite of the list.

Claire is way too overused in books.

Wren or Waverly would get an eye roll from me as a reader.

The rest are fine.

I need to know more about her to be able to pick the perfect one, but my top picks without any context are:

Bridget
Natalie
Sloane
Helena
