I’m having our second daughter in 2 months and we cannot pick a name for the life of us!
Please, please be creative and list some awesome girl names for me!
I feel like the perfect name I am looking for will have flowery/girly sound, be a bit spunky, and slightly southern sounding (like her big sister’s name, [name_f]Layla[/name_f])
Here is our list of “likes”
(middle name will likely be [name_f]Faye[/name_f] but [name_f]May[/name_f] and [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] are options as well.)
[name_f]Gwen[/name_f] is my favorite on your list
how about
[name_f]Harlow[/name_f]
[name_f]Poppy[/name_f]
[name_u]Hadley[/name_u]
[name_u]Quinn[/name_u]
[name_f]Clover[/name_f]
[name_f]Ottilie[/name_f]- my new guilty pleasure
[name_f]Fern[/name_f]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u]
[name_u]Blair[/name_u]
I love [name_f]Adrianna[/name_f], it is one of my favorite names as it can sound strong and cute at the same time. I prefer [name_f]May[/name_f] and [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] over [name_f]Faye[/name_f] but it has to do with the first name. We have the about the same taste in names, I also love names that sound girly. There are some names with a flowery meaning, plus [name_f]Nina[/name_f], which means girl.
[name_f]Camellia[/name_f], [name_f]Lillian[/name_f] and [name_f]Linnea[/name_f] are adorable names but are not usable as they sound too similar to your daughter’s name.
[name_f]Iris[/name_f] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] : Short and not so popular, just like [name_f]Layla[/name_f]. I think that [name_f]Layla[/name_f] and [name_f]Iris[/name_f] sound wonderful together. [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] would be my favourite.
[name_f]Rosa[/name_f], [name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] etc. : [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is a commonly used name, both in the first and in the middle spot. [name_f]Rosa[/name_f] is commonly used in many countries as well. You could use [name_f]Rosa[/name_f] or [name_f]Rose[/name_f] or [name_f]Rosie[/name_f] as a nickname to [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]. All of them sound romantic and girly. [name_f]Roisin[/name_f] (Irish), [name_f]Arrosa[/name_f] (Basque), [name_f]Rosette[/name_f] ([name_m]French[/name_m]) or [name_f]Rosina[/name_f] (Italian) are only some of the name’s variations.
[name_f]Nina[/name_f] : It means little girl in Spanish (niña) but it is also a short form of names ending in -nina.
Now, some of my favorite girly names :
[name_f]Madeleine[/name_f], [name_f]Livia[/name_f], [name_f]Annabel[/name_f], [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] maybe sound too close to [name_f]Layla[/name_f] for you. But maybe not.
[name_f]Victoria[/name_f], [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f], [name_f]Valentina[/name_f], [name_f]Corinne[/name_f]/[name_f]Corinna[/name_f], [name_f]Amadea[/name_f] are adorable names but maybe sound too long (especially [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] and [name_f]Valentina[/name_f]) in comparison with [name_f]Layla[/name_f].
What about …
[name_f]Tatiana[/name_f]
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]

[name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_f]Alba[/name_f]
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f]
[name_f]Vivienne[/name_f]/[name_f]Viviana[/name_f]/[name_u]Vivian[/name_u] etc.
[name_f]Nora[/name_f]
[name_f]Mina[/name_f] (I prefer it as a nickname to [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f] or Ismena)
[name_f]Christina[/name_f]/[name_f]Christiane[/name_f] etc.
[name_f]Freya[/name_f]
