Wife is pregnant with baby #4 and girl #3 but at 6 months we are still baffled as to what to name her. We have a small list of names we like but still haven’t found THE ONE…this is our short list
Shaleigh
[name_u]Vivian[/name_u]
[name_f]Isabella[/name_f]
[name_f]Sabrina[/name_f]
[name_f]Astoria[/name_f]
I like more unique/odd names like Shaleigh and [name_f]Astoria[/name_f] but none of those seems to hit us as the one yet…anyone got any baby girl names that are odd/unique/different? If it helps the baby will have siblings named [name_f]Aryana[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f],[name_m]Ian[/name_m] [name_m]Lorenzo[/name_m] and [name_u]Emory[/name_u] [name_u]June[/name_u]. I don’t care about following a pattern of any kind.
[name_f]Isabella[/name_f], [name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] and [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] feel a lot more common then [name_f]Astoria[/name_f] and Shaleigh do, but I tried to match some names up to the two different tastes. I hope one of two hit the mark!
[name_f]Allegra[/name_f]
[name_f]Gabriella[/name_f]
[name_f]Mila[/name_f]
[name_f]Malia[/name_f]
[name_u]Harper[/name_u]
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
[name_f]Claudia[/name_f]
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]
[name_f]Chiara[/name_f] (pronounced Key-are-ah)
[name_f]Bella[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f]/[name_f]Lyla[/name_f]
[name_u]Matisse[/name_u]
[name_f]Delilah[/name_f]
My favorite from your list is [name_u]Vivian[/name_u]. I also love the suggestions of [name_f]Chiara[/name_f] and [name_f]Allegra[/name_f] above.
More ideas:
[name_f]Acacia[/name_f]
[name_f]Acadia[/name_f]
[name_f]Arabella[/name_f]
[name_f]Isabeau[/name_f]
[name_f]Isadora[/name_f]
[name_u]Kalani[/name_u]
[name_f]Kirrily[/name_f]
[name_f]Mirabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Penina[/name_f]
[name_f]Sabina[/name_f]/[name_f]Sabine[/name_f]
[name_f]Saskia[/name_f]
[name_f]Tallulah[/name_f]
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u]
I like [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] and [name_f]Sabrina[/name_f].
From your list, I think [name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] and [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] work best with your children’s names. Both are familiar enough names without being very popular. [name_f]Astoria[/name_f] feels quite heavy to me, and a step or two less common than your children’s names, though I like the possible nickname of “[name_u]Story[/name_u]”! [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] is lovely but really popular and doesn’t fit your “unique/odd/different” criteria. Shaleigh feels trendy and kind of flimsy to me, especially compared with your children’s names.
[name_f]Aryana[/name_f], [name_m]Ian[/name_m], [name_u]Emory[/name_u], and…
[name_f]Geneva[/name_f]
[name_f]Georgia[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucia[/name_f]
[name_f]Juliette[/name_f]
[name_f]Miriam[/name_f]
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f]
[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f]
[name_f]Veronica[/name_f]
[name_f]Celeste[/name_f]
[name_u]Sage[/name_u]
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_f]Annabelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Lorelei[/name_f]
[name_f]Astrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Harlow[/name_f]
[name_f]Johanna[/name_f]
[name_f]Elena[/name_f]
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]
[name_f]Marina[/name_f]

I think it would be good to stick to a vowel since the siblings start with different vowels. So maybe even an O vowel or U. I do like [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] though.
Here are a few names that spring to mind
[name_f]Arabella[/name_f]
[name_f]Ariella[/name_f]
Otillia
[name_f]Aurelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Ophelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Emelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Amelie[/name_f]
alexia
oceana
[name_f]Astrid[/name_f]
[name_f]India[/name_f]/indie
imogen
[name_u]Indigo[/name_u]
isla
unnur/una
[name_f]Inga[/name_f]
I think [name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] and [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] go wonderfully with your other kids’ names!
I completely understand the struggle for unique names. Here are a few that I think are beautifully unique and doable, too.
[name_f]Abra[/name_f]
[name_f]Althea[/name_f]
[name_f]Amalia[/name_f]
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f]
[name_f]Astra[/name_f]
[name_f]Astrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Bronwyn[/name_f]
[name_f]Ceridwen[/name_f]
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f]
[name_f]Isadora[/name_f]
[name_f]Jacinta[/name_f]
[name_f]Kalila[/name_f]
[name_u]Lennox[/name_u]
Mathyn
[name_f]Nyssa[/name_f]

[name_f]Sibley[/name_f]
[name_f]Vita[/name_f]
[name_f]Xanthe[/name_f]

best luck to you, hope you find one you love
So lots of great names have already been suggested, so I will stick to a very specific category because I had a spark of inspiration. I noticed that all of your children have names beginning with vowels, so why not give this next one her own vowel too? Unless, of course, you plan on having more than one more child, in which case, that might be a hard pattern to live with…
Either way, some different suggestions…
O Names:
[name_u]Oakley[/name_u]
[name_f]Oceana[/name_f]
[name_f]Octavia[/name_f]
[name_f]Odette[/name_f]
[name_f]Odessa[/name_f]
[name_f]Ophelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Olive[/name_f]
[name_f]Olympia[/name_f]
[name_f]Ondine[/name_f]
[name_f]Olwen[/name_f]
[name_f]Oona[/name_f]
[name_f]Opal[/name_f]
[name_f]Orla[/name_f]
U Names:
[name_f]Una[/name_f]
[name_f]Ulla[/name_f]
[name_f]Ula[/name_f]
[name_f]Uma[/name_f]
[name_f]Uda[/name_f]
[name_f]Ursa[/name_f]
[name_f]Ursula[/name_f]
[name_f]Umbria[/name_f]
[name_f]Urbana[/name_f]
