Hello! I’m not pregnant, but I am obsessed with baby names. I’ve had a few names that I’m certain on, but I’v been trying to round out a list-as weird as that sounds-and I’ve been having difficulty with finding girl names that I love.
My absolute favorite baby names are (for both genders)
[name_u]Easton[/name_u] [name_m]David[/name_m]
[name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_u]Hartley[/name_u]
[name_m]Archer[/name_m] [name_u]Glenn[/name_u]
I love these names because they sound almost timeless (I’m not one to be concerned with origins or meanings), and all of the middle names are family names. Other boy names I like are [name_u]Sullivan[/name_u] [name_u]Lee[/name_u] and [name_m]Thatcher[/name_m] [name_m]Donald[/name_m]. However, I cannot find any other girl names that I love.
I’ve considered names like [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] or [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]. I need help finding other timeless names, please!
Some suggestions:
[name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]
[name_f]Tallulah[/name_f]
[name_f]Felicity[/name_f]
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]
[name_f]Juliette[/name_f]
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f]
[name_f]Catalina[/name_f]
[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f]/[name_f]Serafina[/name_f]
[name_f]Valentina[/name_f]
[name_f]Fatima[/name_f]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f]
[name_f]Marilyn[/name_f]
[name_f]Farrah[/name_f]
[name_f]Naomi[/name_f]
[name_f]Faith[/name_f]
[name_f]Alaina[/name_f]
[name_f]Erin[/name_f]
[name_f]Penelope[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucille[/name_f]
[name_f]Primrose[/name_f]
I think [name_u]Easton[/name_u] and [name_m]Archer[/name_m] might be too trendy to be timeless. They fit into the -on and -er names that have been really popular for boys this decade—see [name_u]Mason[/name_u], [name_m]Jackson[/name_m], [name_u]Hudson[/name_u], [name_u]Carson[/name_u], and [name_u]Carter[/name_u], [name_m]Asher[/name_m], [name_u]Hunter[/name_u], [name_m]Cooper[/name_m].
As a [name_m]Fleetwood[/name_m] [name_m]Mac[/name_m] fan, I love the name [name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f] but I don’t know that I’d call it timeless.
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] dates back to Greek mythology and can also refer to the flower, so it strikes me as the most timeless on your list. I think a lot of flower names can be timeless, actually. I can picture [name_f]Violet[/name_f], for example, on a vivacious little girl or a little old lady on a park bench. My name is a flower name that I share with two of my great grandmothers, and I get compliments on it all the time, so maybe I’m a little biased.
[name_m]How[/name_m] do you define “timeless”? In terms of names that have just been consistently popular across generations, I’m thinking names like [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], [name_f]Mary[/name_f], [name_f]Anne[/name_f]/[name_f]Anna[/name_f], [name_f]Jane[/name_f], [name_f]Alice[/name_f], [name_f]Rachel[/name_f], [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f], [name_f]Grace[/name_f], and maybe [name_f]Sarah[/name_f].
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] strikes me as timeless, but your others don’t really… not to say they’re bad names, I really like your list! I just wouldn’t describe them as timeless, but they’re more than usable.
