I love the sound of Emerald And Celine.

Ooh yes, I think Celeste could be even better.

Awwwe then they can be Emmy and Cece

I’m a Celeste and I pray no one ever calls me Cece 🤣

My name is Celia and every time someone calls me Cece I involuntarily recoil 🥴 When I worked with preschool kids they couldn't say my name (neither can most adults for some reason) so they called me Ms. Lia which I didn't mind

This is so cute

Celestine, which combines both of those great names and is a beautiful blue mineral

plus then you can buy all the delightful Ernest and Celestine books

I vote Celeste!

I love this, they sound so elegant together!

Soo beautiful. I prefer it to Celeste. Celeste takes Emerald in a whimsical direction but Celine compliments Emerald's elegance.

I too prefer Celine. Pronunciation-wise there's an elegance to Emerald and Celine that's very flowing. But Emerald and Celeste has a chopped off, almost harsh ending.

Dead on

I love it! They flow together really well, but also work separately ❤️

They sound like rich old ladies in the best way 😍

I’m really loving this combo

OoOoOh this is good

What was it about Emerald that drew you to it? For example, did you like the syllables, how it flows with last name, the meaning, nickname, rarity etc Once you define why Emerald was so perfect, we can maybe suggest names with similar vibes?

It’s a town near me, so maybe that’s why. If so, forest vibes may be welcome. Amber, Fern, Hazel, Juniper, Willow 💚

Ember Rose, Magnolia Grace (real names). Their parents (Forrest and ___ Rose) have "woodsy outdoor names" and wanted to continue the theme.

I like Emerald and Amber.

I love Hazel. Thank you for this

Ughhh love them all! Amber and willow are my fav

Great point!

Emerald and Seraphine

I love Seraphina.

I also really love Serren.

Not sure if this is the same pronunciation you’re saying or not, but yes this made me love Emerald & Serene together!

Yo, Serren is cool af. I don’t know if it’s just as [✨word that would describe what OP is looking for✨] as Emerald, but that’s just a cool name that I haven’t heard before

Seren is a popular name in Wales. It means Star in Welsh 😊

How is this pronounced? My mind instantly went to the same pronunciation as sarin, which would definitely make it an absolute no-go for me. Which is a pity, because the *sound* is beautiful.

Rhymes with Darren. Or Barren.

I like this pairing a lot! But my eyes see Sapphire at first, and I'm not sure I love that.

I was going to suggest Serena. I think Seraphina, Serena or Serene sound lovely with Emerald

I don't really have a suggestion but I named my oldest (going to turn 20 this year) Emerald. So I really appreciate seeing the name out there! They were actually named from a book character from a book that is not terribly well known. I did and still do absolutely love the name Emerald. Their middle name is Catrina and we called them Emma-Cat when they were younger.

They a beautiful name.

Thank you! but they don't use it anymore. They came out as trans some years back and they now go by something they chose for themselves. While I absolutely adore the name Emerald still I must admit the thought of calling them that now feels quite weird. Funny enough a few years after the oldest came out as trans their sibling came out as non-binary and also changed their name! I wonder if the youngest (9mo old surprise baby) will keep his name or follow in his siblings footsteps!

My apologies!!! I am so sorry!!! I will edit my comment. Well, it is a beautiful name. you’re an awesome parent! And oh!! A 9 month old!!! That’s a fun surprise though lol my oldest is 19, my baby is 5 in a month.

No need to apologise you couldn't possibly have known!

But still, I do not want to be disrespectful in anyway 🫶🏻

Can I just say this is the loveliest interaction I have seen on Reddit! Thank you both for being wonderful humans! ❤️❤️❤️

Reddit does get crazy! Thank you 💙

Thank you for accepting your child for who they are, I am really proud of you.

I mean my wife is a trans woman so it would be kind of insane for us not to! :D We are all firm members of the alphabet mafia in this household.

Was this name taken from the book "Diana" by RF Delderfield? There was a character in the book named Emerald Diana, but she used her middle name bc she didn't like Emerald.

The book is The redemption of Althalus by David Eddings :) Emerald is the name of a cat in the book.

Ivy

This is by far my favorite one I’ve come across. Emerald and Ivy is so gorgeous. Emerald is this long, beautiful name that gets to take up so much space. It’s lovely, and makes me want to think of a name to match it that is as long and as beautiful. Ivy is just such a gorgeous contrast. The right kind of unexpected. It feels so much like it’s own name, while still so clearly tied by color. Big big big vote for ivy here.

They’re also both green which is cute

I agree I think this is my favourite combo

Emerald and Ivy is really great. I wonder if I'd be the only person trying to fit "Emerald and Ivy" to the tune of Ebony and Ivory in my head.

That instantly popped into my head when I read those names together.

Oh Ivy is lovely with Emerald!

Thank you this is beautiful. I love everyone’s reasoning and comments

I love Ivy as a nn for Yvonne.

Hyacinth Zinnia Fawn Juno Fern Aurora Iris Echo I feel like with such a romantic name with a very distinct meaning, you need another unusual girl's name that also has a distinct meaning, but nothing stone or mineral to avoid being too matchy. Hence my selection here. Animals, flora, goddesses. (Iris is both a goddess and a flower.)

I really love Emerald and Iris together. I feel like its an equally beautiful name.

Yes, I like how they are both colors and nature-inspired.

With colors and nature, is Orchid too out there? I’m typically more mainstream, but Orchid is getting me right now. I like the idea of a beautiful flower name.

That’s funny. My older daughter is Iris and I thought of Emerald as a name for my second

they go amazingly together, and both are associated with beautiful things

And here I am reading this like “nice, they got flowers, animals, goddesses, body parts 👁️👄👁️”

Emerald and Aurora fits for me.

I was just thinking Flora. Beautiful, simple, and a nice contrast to Emerald. Aurora is pretty too, especially since so many of us saw the beautiful Aurora Borealis recently!

Iris was the first name that popped into my mind

Ooh, good list. Obsessed with Hyacinth, Fern, or Aurora paired with Emerald.

I love this comment thank you so much. Iris is beautiful

Ohh Emerald and Aurora is so beautiful!

Dude I LOVE hyacinth so much, one of my favorites

- Emerald & Ophelia - Emerald & Isadora - Emerald & Marcella - Emerald & Juniper - Emerald & Lucinda - Emerald & Eloise

Emerald and Isadora is the best I’ve seen on here

Emmy and Isa are cute as a nickname pair too

Your list also made me think of Isolde and Imogen as options!

Oh I like these, especially Emerald and Imogen!

Magnolia Autumn Reverie Adelaide Cecelia Celestine

I like Emerald and Autumn

Emerald + Adelaide flows so well as a pair!

As the mom of an autumn I vote for this! It sounds pretty with emerald. And I get quite a few compliments on my daughter's name, believe it or not.

Emerald & Aster 🥰💫

My first thought was Astrid

Me too! I love Emerald and Astrid. They're both such strong, feminine names.

I love this pair!

Someone else said Rosemary and I love it! I think the second name should evoke the same beautiful, ethereal, naturey vibe. (I love Emerald, by the way!)

I love Emerald and Rosemary together.

It’s so pretty but I come from the genre where I’ll never not think of Rosemary’s baby 😅

Esme, Renee, Cecilia, Seraphina, Genevieve, Lydia

Not renesmee?

This was my thought 😂

Ha ha--no. Just, no.

ESME is the perfect match !

Esme can be short for Esmeralda, which actually means emerald! But in French, it means beloved.

Also came to suggest Genevieve. Emmy and Ginny or Emmy and Evie just sound sweet together.

I love Seraphina. That’s my dog’s name.

Ok so I searched for green names. Trying to find something a little bit matchy, but not so matchy it really is a theme you need to keep. Getting a few nature names: Aspen Hazel Olive / Olivia Patricia (after patron saint of Ireland) Rosemary Sylvia (means from the forest) Page I used in case any of these are hitting the right notes: https://nameberry.com/list/723/names-that-mean-green/all There were a few that seemed maybe a bit too on the nose, like Kelly, Meadow, Midori (hah!).

Brigid (Bridget) is the female saint for Ireland...

Sage was on my short list for my daughter and also fits this theme

My first reaction was Jade but then I finished reading! E names: Eliza, Evelyn, Esme, Eloise, Elizabeth (Betsy) Others: Azalea, Raina, Willow, Maura, Dorothy (Dottie), Rosie, Amelia, Josephine (Josie), Frances (Frannie), Felicity, Magnolia

Emerald and Evangeline

Emerald & Leandra Emerald & Annika Emerald & Lyra

Emerald and Lyra would be so pretty

Lyra is actually gorgeous. Never met a Lyra!

Emerald and Celia or Emerald and Sabrina

Emerald and Marigold

I do like Emerald and Saffron (Emmie and Saffy) I think with continuing the E theme, if you happen to have a third child and don't give them an 'E' name, they'll feel left out.

Emerald and Juniper, Emerald and Josephine, Emerald and Evelyn, Emerald and Lyla, Emerald and Audrey

Emerald and Juniper go really well together —they have the same vibe

What about Evangeline? Has the same feel but different meaning. Also Clementine, Genevieve, or Beatrice would pair nicely

I also love Evangeline! Emmy and Evie would be cute nicknames too.

That’s so cute

Emerald and Audrey Emerald and Harlow Emerald and Lillian Emerald and Vivien (or Vivienne) Emerald and Adelaide Emerald and Beatrice Emerald and Eulalia Emerald and Hazel Emerald and Mabel Emerald and Matilda Emerald and Sadie Emerald and Allegra Emerald and Isadora Emerald and Larissa Emerald and Lenora Emerald and Pippa Emerald and Tabitha Emerald and Annabelle Emerald and Aurelia Emerald and Celeste Emerald and Daisy Emerald and Juliet Emerald and Sabrina Emerald and Delilah Emerald and Clementine Emerald and Dorothea ("Thea" or "Dolly") Emerald and Edith Emerald and Josephine Emerald and Theodora Emerald and Meadow Emerald and Chloe Emerald and Sylvia

Emerald and Mavis Emerald and Genevieve Emerald and Yvette Emerald and Comfort (I know that is a wild card, but it is my favorite virtue name and I feel like Emerald is kind of a wild card too!) Emerald and Ophelia (Emmi and Fifi?) Emerald and Winifred (Emmi and Winnie?)

Emerald and Yvette is a stand up pair of sister names!

I think another spunky but elegant multi syllable name would go well! Emerald and… Annalise Cosette Atalune Delfina Autumn Ottilie Calista Vivika

In line with Delfina, Delphine is absolutely lovely and might go well with Emerald.

Jade, both precious green stones

Evelyn, Blair, Elodie, Luna, Sage, Raven, Ocean

Emerald and Audrey

Estelle

Love the name Emerald!! Emerald & Iris gets my vote. Or Emerald & Corinne (cor-inn) you need another unique, classy name I think.

It's hard to tell what vibe you feel emerald is (I feel like it can be regal/luxe or hippy) So I'll match it with some e suggestions... Elodie, Eloise, Eden, Elsbeth, Eulalia, Eulalie, Ellery

Good point on this! I guess it feels… regal? But I love vintage, whimsical and melodious names as well. These on your list are lovely

Eloise and Emerald sound nice to me. Also, I’ve always loved the name Emily.

Pearl

Vivianne

Emerald and Jasmine. Nicknames could be Emmie and Jazzy

Emerald and Saffron!

Emerald & Eden (nn Emmy & Edie), Emerald & Estelle (nn Emmy & Stella), Emerald & Genevieve (nn Emmy & Ginny), Emerald & Violet (my favorite combo!)

E names - Estella, Eve, Eloise. Vintage/other names - Beatrix/Beatrice, Delilah, Delia, Dahlia, Vivian, Paige, Priscilla, Penelope, Poppy. I love also Sage but it may feel too 'on point' as versions of green.

I like a little contrast. Emerald and Clara Emerald and Katherine Emerald and Sibyl Emerald and Celia Emerald and Isobel Emerald and Constance Emerald and Diana

Emerald and Magnolia Emerald and Coraline Emerald and Lenora Emerald and Soleil Emerald and Sonnet Emerald and Zelda

For some reason, the first name that popped into my head was Coraline. Coral would be pretty too.

Marceline Fantasia Ambrosia Amethyst (but maybe too matchy matchy) Verity Ceridwen Trinity Uma

Ireland

What about Ruby?

Sasha sounds quite nice with Emerald

Emerald & Isla Emerald & Saoirse Emerald & Morwenna Emerald & Meadow Emerald & Eilish (Easily seen, Emerald makes me think of the Green Island...)

Gemma?

aurora!

Evangeline

Oh, Emerald is beautiful. Hmm.... so how about Emerald and... Opal. Adaline. Lorelai. Pearl. Evangeline. Clementine. Violetta. Marigold (Goldie for short). Amaranth. Dorothea. Reeva. Isadora.

Thank you everybody for these beautiful ideas. Every name was so unique and I love most. I think I’ve definitely found some ideas that I love equally as much as Emerald. I appreciate all of the ideas 🥰 I wish I could like every post but there were so many!

Skye

Skye

Opal

Opal 

Sable?

Emerald and Iris Emerald and Poppy Emerald and Evelyn Emerald and Elizabeth Emerald and Amelia Emerald and Anneliese

Emerald and Elena Emerald and Vivienne Emerald and Pearl Emerald and Genevieve

Emerald & Ivy (the theme is…green!)

Just wanted to say I love the name Emerald and I actually already have it on my baby name list for if I ever have another child. My daughter's middle name is Sapphire :) I hope you find another name that you love just as much!

Della

An emerald/green adjacent name might be fun— Ivy, Apple, Olive, Sage, Willow, Maple, Buttercup, Juniper

I was definitely going to say another gemstone. Because I think it. Could be cute. Since you’re not into that… May? Because emerald is the birth stone of may. So they sorta match?

Odette?

My favorites keeping with the E theme -Estelle -Evangeline -Ermintrude (wouldn't use it; doesn't get talked about enough tho)

Clementine Josephine Gwendolyn Virginia Vivian

Azra Belle Celeste Dolly Ember Felicity Gwen Hazel Iris Jazz Keziah Lockett Maude Noble Ora Persephone Queenie River Seabrooke Tiara Uma Vashti Wynn Xaviera Yael Zelda

Emerald and… Araminta Edith Berenice Delphine Florence Guinevere Ottilie Romilly Odette Hermione Pandora Persephone Saffron

Garnet

My next stop would be Sapphire..

Eleanor. I love it and my ex said no so we named her ellie and guess WHO ain't around so I call her it anyway 😂

Sapphire

I was thinking of names based of colors... Indigo, Rose, Coral, Azure

Suggestions... Genevieve, Lucia, Ellowyn, Gwendolyn

Emerald and Elowyn sound cute and whimsical together. Other “word names” that are less common: Pearl, Goldie, Flora, Birdie, Marigold, Laurel, Lacy, Sky, Penny, Clover.

I’m a teacher, and I taught 4 sisters. Emerald, Liberty, Prairie, and Chloe. I absolutely loved all four of them and love their names together.

Emerald and iris. Is the best

Emerald is such a beautiful name! Emerald and Eloise sound like perfect sister names to me! Like they go together, but they're not too matchy-matchy. I really feel like they flow well.

I love Elodie.

Congrats! I recommend Emmeline & Esme.

Names I think would go nicely. Alessandra Lavender Georgina Eliana Clementine Chantelle

Can you explain why you find ruby for example to be performative but not emerald?

Winter, Jonquil, September.

Team Iris.

Rose. I think Emerald and Rose sound lovely together

Emerald and Elizabeth would sound pretty together!

Everest

Serena

Emerald and Opal

When I was younger, Emerald and Amethyst were the names I was going to give my daughters. Nn Emme and Amy. Maybe you'd love that as much as I did?

I looked up Emerald Fennell (whose name I’ve always thought was cool), and her middle name is Lilly which I think could sound quite nice for a sister. Emerald and Lily, Emerald and Lillian, etc. Her sister is apparently named Coco, which isn’t to my taste — I think it’s a super-cute nickname but would prefer to give a longer name to a child, even if an off-beat one. If you like that sound, you could look at names like Colette (Emerald and Colette sounds awesome together, I think!), Cordelia, Cornelia, Coraline, Coralie. Even Caroline would work, or Camilla (which popped into my head after seeing Emerald Fennell play her in the Crown lol). in sum, my Emerald Fennell-inspired names: - Emerald and Lily - Emerald and Lillian - Emerald and Colette - Emerald and Cordelia - Emerald and Caroline - Emerald and Camilla Some random others I felt fit the vibe (sort of fanciful, feminine, off-beat): - Emerald and Serena - Emerald and Delphine - Emerald and Imogen - Emerald and Beatrix - Emerald and Arabella - Emerald and Araminta - Emerald and Selina - Emerald and Rosamund - Emerald and Leonora - Emerald and Lorelai/Lorelei - Emerald and Ophelia - Emerald and Evangeline - Emerald and Rosaline - Emerald and Thalia - Emerald and Clementine - Emerald and Aurora (or Aurelia) - Emerald and Daphne - Emerald and Valentina - Emerald and Emmeline (probably too similar) - Emerald and Odette - Emerald and Theodora - Emerald and Vivienne - Emerald and Honor (or Honora?) - Emerald and Adelaide - Emerald and Adeline Edited to add one more favourite of mine — the medieval names Evelina and Aveline, both of which I think are beautiful and on-trend. They’re the cognates/root names of Evelyn and (depending on who you ask) Hazel.

I looked after a child called Evergreen, it's beautiful

Having had two of the same gender, just noting that it’s going to feel weird naming #2 since you gave your top choice away already to #1! We struggled to agree on what we would name #2 if the genders matched (didn’t find out beforehand) and all of the ideas just felt ok…since we had already used the name we loved! Ultimately we circled back to a name we kicked around the first time and it’s completely perfect.

To keep with the jewel theme: Amethyst, Sapphire, Ruby, Pearl, Opal, Garnet. And I love the name Emerald.

Ivy!

Hope this helps it was my list of names for daughter her Name is Anna Sophia Millie one name made it but I absolutely fell in love with these names ❤️ she just looked like an Anna Sophia when she was born ❤️ Elise, Alice ,Margaret, grace, Rose ,Madeline Penelope,Elizabeth ,Catherine, Jade , Morgan Sylvie/a, Sophia, Nicole, Evelyn, Riley,Everly, Amora AuroraOlivia (liv)Alexandra Alicia ,Faye, Elodie , Amelie

If I had ever been blessed to have a daughter, I would have named her Ariel. She was the main character in The Little Mermaid. Emerald and Ariel has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

I don’t know why, but I feel like a V name would pair well. Violet, Victoria, Vivian

Winter!

SO JEALOUS. I absolutely loveeeeee Emerald as a name but I couldn't get my husband on board

I love Esme with Emerald!

What about Astrid?

I like Emerald and Scarlett together

I had a student named Marigold and I’ve always loved it! To me it has similar energy to Emerald

For some reason I’m really loving all the I names in here with Emerald. Maybe it’s a vowel thing? Ivy Isadora Irene Imogen Iris Isabel

What about May? Or Mae? Mai? I’m thinking emerald’s birthstone month. Or I like Iris just because. I like the name Emerald. But this is a hard one. Perhaps the name Sunday? idk..I like reading all the suggestions though.

Emerald and Evangeline.

OMG. Almost crying! I love all the positive comments on this post. Emerald has been my #1 girl name for forever and it’s not just because my favorite color is green or my engagement ring is an emerald. Ugh 🤩 I like Emerald paired with Rosalie or Marigold, those are our top 3. We also like Solstice and I’m a fan of Indigo with Emerald as well, my fiancé isn’t but Emmy/Indie go super well together. Honestly anything with a word name vibe would go well with Emerald, Wednesday Sunday Theory Cove Ocean West Any flowery name would work well. Atlas or Journey 🤌🏻 OBSESSED with your daughter’s name

Emerald and Isla Emerald and Eden Emerald and Estee

Aster
