My husband is from Norway, I am from the US, and we want to find a name that will be acceptable in both countries without sounding too weird! I have a daughter already whose name is Alaina, so something that isn't too common or too out there.
We have thought Anya for a girl and Erik for a boy.
Any comments on those, and also any suggestions for good middle names that are used in both countries?
Thanks!
Looking for input on baby names and middle names for them?
Erik is a wonderful name. My oldest son's name is Erik
Erik Bjorn
Erik Soren
Erik Daniel
Anya is a pretty name but might be confuesed with the sister's name.
How about
Elsa Amilea
Anna Katherine
Britta Lind
Sonja Maria
Amilia Anna
Lena Christina - Lena ......sounds like this. Lee Nah
I am American.......my grandparents came from Sweden and Norway.
Reply:I like both of them! As for middle names, you might want to take a look at names in family trees online. Try RootsWeb.com; search on "erik" and "anya" to see what middle names come up in family trees that are Norse/Norwegian - they might give you some good ideas.
Reply:those are good names you can try brittney marie or robert william for first and middle

Hope I could help. You can also try a few different websites to find out some cool Norwegian names and some cool U.S. names . You could even name him after some famous person from Norway or the U.S. and if all else fails.....if it's a boy , name him after your husband, and if it's a girl name her after some special women in either one of your families who is very close to you.
Reply:those are both nice names
Reply:Anya and Erik are fine......i dont know anything that would be good for both countries, i know nothing about Norway, sorry.
Reply:Anya is a good name, and its different too...
Reply:There is a website below that has a few hundred names from Norwegian origin. As an American, you could browse through the names and see what would be considered a 'typical' American name and not too out there.
I personally love Julia or Heidi for a girl's name and Daniel or Jacob for a boys name.
Reply:Anya is a nice name and is definitely unique. Erik is pretty common in the US though (Eric/Erick/etc.).
Reply:I'm sorry, but I don't know any Norweigan (Norwiegan?) names- Alaina is very pretty though, and I think Anya is too.
Reply:Taleah Kate
Adisynn Michelle
Kiana Grace

I don't think those are Norwegian, but they are unique!
Reply:Niklas James (pronounced Nicholas I think) and Anya Bethany.
