[Closed] Help us pick a girl's name.

my suggestions: Ameena, Imogen, Erin - my faves from the ones already are Flora and Freya

Freya was my favourite until the missus insisted on Poppy for our daughter.

Take a look at your great grandmothers - they had some great names back then. It helps connect your kid to their heritage.

@Bregante

Any flower names [i][b]tend[/b][/i] to be nice.

But good try all the same 🙂

Darcy was quite popular the last time we did this. Can't help thinking someone must be turning people off it 😐

Ours is Grace Harriet; on "the list" if we have another are Edie/Evie/Eve, Hazel, Violet, Audrey(!) for girls...

Like epicyclo said - check great grandmothers and such; Grace Harriet is a family name in my Dads family; we dropped the "Darling" that was also in there though!

We know of several other Grace's too - it is fairly popular at the moment.

And being in Australia - land of Anglicised phonetics! - we decided to avoid the Irish names from my wife's family a la the Siobhan and Niamh comments above.

Aoife? I like it as a girls name. Pronounced Efa (best I can think
of)

Victoria or Elizabeth.

Alternatively if you want something a bit more "modern" then try ...

Psilocybin
Galerina
Mycena
Nada
Cuba, China ... England may do too.
Tangerine, Apple ... watermelon?
Virginia ... errrmmm ...
Princess Wawa ...

Suppose Dawn is out of the question 🙂

Spudulika "it's exotic"

A nice range of predictably middle class name types there. :o)

It is well worth checking the names lists though as our daughter has 4 Izzy's and 4 Evies in her class.

We went with Meg in the end though registered Megan on the birth certificate, far better to use the full name when you are shouting at them 😉

Any flower names tend to be nice.

Hyacinth it is then.

We named our daughter Rose when she popped out 49 hours ago. Named after her Great Grandma Rosalie.

congrats Davy, was going to say Rose anyway 🙂

failing that, how about Eris?

Ours is Samantha Petra, my grandmother was Petranella, but the SO wasn't having that.

Second the advice of checking the most popular lists, we deliberately chose a name that wasn't on any of the lists.

We've got a
Bethan Alice
Esther Rose and last but not least
Iona Beatrice

We wanted a "proper" English name that wasn't going to be overly common. Also wanted to make sure any shortening of the name was ok...

Rosemary is now 7 months and no regrets!

Can be shortened to Rose or Rosie as the whim takes her later in life...

Can't beat olivia 🙂 Aw my beautiful baby:)

OP: we went for "Annabelle" - offers her a nice bit of variety for nicknames in the future (Anna, Ann, Bella, Belle, Belly) and then we gave her the same middle name as my wife, which only seemed fair since she had my last name 😀

Kim is nice and short, means 'golden' in Chinese

Hmm What is Chinese for "shower"?

Can't beat olivia

Yes you can, but I'll call social services if you do. (bless! very cute BTW)

We callled ours Amelie, as in the film, you can have that one makes a change from Amelia

Dusty

Amy Jane & Mia Casey for my two girls

I love older names - Maisie and Grace are my favourites at the moment.

We called our little boy (now 20 months old) Stanley - his great great great uncle Stanley is currently Europe's oldest man!

as our daughter has 4 Izzy's and 4 Evies in her class.

🙁

Chloe and Freya my two. (Louise and Olivia middle names)

We called our little boy (now 20 months old) Stanley - his great great great uncle Stanley is currently Europe's oldest man!

How about.. Buttercup? 😉

PS seem to be a boatload of Annabellas around currently.

Dusty

if you're going with a name suggested on STW it might as well have a bit of history 😛

Chlamydia

My sisters are called Alyssa and Inga

I like Jessica myself

mine is called Jemimah - she loves having an unusual name

Mine (half-Spanish) are Aitana and Miranda, you're welcome to them. The names, of course, I'm quite fond of the girls.

Obi_Twa_Point_Wan ?
