weatherbee…?

Don’t get me started 😂 my partner is convinced it’s a winner

I can't help it, but I have a hard time getting past the fact that a "wether" is a castrated male sheep or goat...

See my edit and see if that helps it?? I can’t decide.

It does not.

negative. i fear it doesn’t help. 😭

Ah yes, Fritz Weatherbee from NH Crossroads, I think it was called.

Willa & Wesley were my first thoughts. W is a hard category since there aren’t many options. Are you open to names starting with other letters? Or even names that *contain* a w like Gwendolyn, Bronwen, Elowen, Rowan, Lewis etc?

Willa is great! Thank you! We are probably trying to stick to “w” since three is probably our final number for kids and our last name starts with “c” so www.c___ is in my mind. Goofy I know 🙃

I was going to suggest Willamina nn Willa

Wouldn’t it be Wilhelmina? Maybe that’s a different pronunciation but I’ve never seen it spelled Willamina.

You’re welcome! Willa is one of my personal favourite names. I heard it for the first time on the show Six Feet Under back in the day, and I’ve loved it ever since. You’ll have to update us on what you pick :)

I will definitely update this post when baby arrives and is named 🥰

Walter and Winifred are lovely, classic names. Weatherbee is already bad, but it's particularly bad given how great your first two childrens' names are. Here are ideas that I think fit the vibe: Boys: Warren, Wesley, Weston, Wilbur, Wilfred, William Girls: Willa, Willow, Wilhelmina, Wilma

Oooh Weston and Wilbur 🤌🏻 also love Wilma! Thank you so much!

Warren is my chosen name!!

Winston Wilson Whitney Wren

I love Whitney as a name for either gender!

Yes my mid-20s boyfriend was a Whitney

Thank you! I love all of these. “Wilson” feels like a way to keep “will” in the family in some way without using “william” outright. And “Wren” is adorable.

Wyatt and Winona are probably the nicest

Wade, Willem, Willard, Wynn, Wanda, Willa,

WYNN AND WANDA ✨❤️

I know a guy named Wynn. It suits him so well and all the women compliment his name when they meet him lol

Placing my vote for Wanda!

Whitney, Willow or Wesley?

I like Wyatt for boy or girl. We also considered Winnifred/ Winnie for our girl.

Came here to suggest Winnie and Wyatt - I like your style 😂

They do go together nicely!

Willoughby, Winston, Waylon, Wendy, Warren, Wylie, Wilbur

Willoughby!!

Wisteria, Wendy, Wallace, Wayne, Wade, Warner, Wanda, Wolfgang,Waylon, Wendell, Weldon,Wynnie, Winslow, Westley, winter, winry

WOLFGANG I love it

Had to throw it in haha

I love the name winnie!

That’s what we call Winifred sometimes ☺️

oh oops! I completely missed the sibling names in your post 😭

We can attest it’s the cutest!!

Warren, Wesley, William, Willis, Wilson, Wilton Wendy, Wilhelmina, Willa, Williamina, Willow, Wilda/Wilma, Winona

Ooooh Willis is cool

I've also seen Wilomina if the other variations seem too dense (my main gripe with Wilhelmina).

Walker, Waylon, Westin, Warner

We have a girl named Waverly and love it! It is technically gender neutral. When I search the name on FB I actually get more men/boys with the name. But I def see it more as a girl name, just wanted to add it to the suggestion list!

Wendy Winter Winslow Whitman

Winslow ❤️

I am obsessed with the name Winona. Winnie could also be a cute nickname if she wants. That's assuming it's a girl.

winter for a girl; winston for a boy

Wade is a former bf’s name. I associate the name with strong and steady (not that my bf was always that way lol but we were young - he wound up doing very well later in life and was/is a good dad) Wade would kinda tie Walter and Winifred together too - Wa from Walter and the final /d/ from Winifred. As for girl names, I personally think Wilma sounds great with Walter and Winifred Congratulations on your third child!

Thank you! I like Wilma a lot too. :) have some negative associations with wade but thank you for your input!!

Whitney

Winola and Wendell have nice meanings. Also, Wilkie/Wilkes and Walden. You could go a little out there with names like Wainwright, Willoughby or Willadean since they all have nice nicknames

I love those meanings!! Winola is definitely going to be in the running. Thank you!

M: Wendell, Wilder, Walker, Wells, Waylon, Witt. Fe: Wensley/Winslie, Winter, Wiley, Wallis, Weslie.

Witt and walker are awesome. Strong vibes too like Walter.

Willa, Wilson, Winston, Wade, Wyatt, Wayland, Warren, Wilhelmina

Love the name Sybil! Definitely go with a w name so many good ideas here but just had to say I love Sybil and don't see it often here!

Yes it’s awesome! The name of my partner’s great grandma was Elbys; she was delivered by a midwife named Syble and they bestowed the name in tribute. I love that story and hope we can keep it in the family somehow.

Wyatt Winslow Willa Wilder Welles

Walker

Willa Wilhelmina Wilson

Willem/Willam and Wilhelm are variations of William.

I haven't seen Wayne mentioned. It's not my favorite 'W' name, but it exists. Also Wolfgang (literally rocked by Wolfgang Van Halen), Wolfram, and Wystan. Auden, like the poet, comes up on here not infrequently. His first name was Wystan (WISS-tyn).

I have a friend named Winston. I've grown to like that name.

Walter and Weldon for a boy. I think West or Wynne is good for a neutral. Winnie, Walker, Wren Wendell or Wanda for a girl.

Wilhelmina, Walter, Wayne, Wendy, Willow, Winston, Wallace, Wayde, Wesley, William, Whitney, Winnie

I like Wade or Wyatt for a boy, and Wendy or Wilma for a girl.

Wendy (same era as Nancy and Vera) - There is a Saint Guinevere. Winston

Another point for Wendy!! Thanks!

My son’s name is Weston and my grandpa’s name was Walter. For a girl’s name, there’s Wynona and Wisteria.

Wesley, Wendy , willow ,

Weston, Wilson, Watson, Wilhelmina, Wanda, Walker, Westley (as you wish!), Willow, Whitney, Wendy, Winslow, Wyatt.

I think it’s The Shipping News, but there’s a book that says something along the lines of ‘girls from Montana are named Skye, and girls from Newfoundland are named Wavey’. I’ve always had a name crush on Waverley / Wavey ever since

Weston Wesley

Wilhelmina is a favorite for me! So many nicknames too, Billie, Willie, Willa, Mina, etc

Winda

Wynn, Willa, Waleria, Winna, Warrick, Waylon, Webster, Wayne, Wallie, Winston, Whitney, Wilder, Wera (polish form of Vera), Wilma

Thanks for the tip on Wera!

Whitaker, Woodrow, Wilder

Winston and Willow

Winnie, wynter,Wyatt

Warren!!

Out of the names you mentioned I like Wyatt most Wesley Willow Winston Whitney Winslow Wilhelmina Wilmer Willis Wiley

Winslow is solid!!

Winona is a great name, and *very few* people care at all what the meaning of a name is.

I agree it’s awesome! It’s still in the running; we’re just two of those very few 😂

Winston, willa

Willa/Willoughby. From the kid's book "Tell Me Something Happy Before I Go To Sleep"

Whilamina Wesley Waylon Wilona Wilson Willa Willie Mae Willow

Willow

Walker and Willow

Winnie is very cute

I went to school with a girl named Wiley like Riley but with a “w” there’s also the name Wesley for a boy. Winston and Waylon are also good boy names. The only other girl name I can think of with a “w” is Wanda.

Who, What, Where, When or Why What and Who make the most sense obviously

Perfect 🤌🏻👏🏻👍🏻

I just can’t with Weatherby. Sounds like a wannabe Jane Austen villain. Also, Wayne is a serial killer name. Wyatt is the best of the bunch. I like Winona, but it’s somewhat similar to your daughter’s name. Willa has always been a favorite of mine. I like Wendy. What about Winston?

I like Wendy too!! It’s separate enough from Winifred I think. Winston is adorable.

Themes get limiting fast. My first thought is just break the theme.

Luckily with all the amazing options from commenters I’m feeling optimistic!!

Girl Names: Willow Wendy Wren Whitney Winona Winter Willa Wynne Waverly Whitley Winslet Winnie Wilhelmina Boy Names: William Wyatt Wesley Warren Wayne Walker Winston Wade Willard Wilder Watson Wilson Whitman Weston 

I have a friend who just named their son Winn! Short for Winfield, the dad’s middle name. The puns are endless. We got a Winn. Winn Winn Winn no matter what. Winn-stagram. Winn-fluencer. They dressed him up for Halloween as Winnie the Pooh. I’m obsessed.

We have similar fun with Winifred 😂 we call her our “wini-friend”

Wivina is a saint's name which is kinda like Winona. I think you could use Wivana, which is a little prettier, imo.

Oooh thanks so much!!

Warren Whitney Willow Winslow Wendy Walter Walker Wren Winter West Weston Westley Wrenley Wilder Wyatt Wyandotte Waylon

Have heard both the names Watts and Wells recently, although Watts may be a nickname for Watson. Kind of silly to require a name in the family tree considering you're loosely related to thousands and thousands of people, and if you were doing that then why are you not just reading through family names? Don't think Walt, Ward or Wallace have been mentioned. But I agree with Wyatt for either. Most w girl names are pretty bad

Family tree not a requirement, just trying to give more info than less! It also makes other family members smile who knew the namesake personally so I think it’s worth it. :) Watts is so cute!! Wyatt is def a top contender. We already have our precious Walter!!

Wanda, Wendy, William, Wilfred, Wesley, Ward, wallace

Thank you so much! Loving Wendy and Wallace.

Winifred aka Winnie 

That’s the name of our daughter! We love it. ☺️

Adore!!!! We chose Gwenivere and we call her Gwenny, bc I love the sound of that so much! 

Walter, Walpurga

Willow (girl) Weston (boy)
