love the shout out to the rose names!

might i second rosalie? a lovely way to lengthen ‘rose’ in my opinion!

to me, ruthie isn’t quite as wearable on an adult, so personally i wouldn’t choose it. however, for a young girl i think it’s so sweet 🌷

[name\_f]Rose[/name\_f] & [name\_f]Rosemary[/name\_f] are my favorites on your list. [name\_f]Dot[/name\_f], [name\_f]Dottie[/name\_f], [name\_f]Darla[/name\_f], [name\_f]Dolly[/name\_f], [name\_f]Pearl[/name\_f], [name\_f]Mae[/name\_f] and [name\_f]Opal[/name\_f] came to mind besides. Congratulations on your pregnancy 🙂

[name\_f]Rose[/name\_f]- love it pretty and classic. And you don’t often hear it as a first name

[name\_f]Rosemary[/name\_f]- also very pretty although I don’t love it as much as rose but it is a great name!

[name\_f]Louisa[/name\_f]- very pretty and classic. I like that it’s unique as well. I know a girl named [name\_f]Louisa[/name\_f] who goes by [name\_u]Louie[/name\_u] which I think is really cute!

[name\_f]Susannah[/name\_f]- not my favorite. I don’t think people would call her sue or [name\_f]Susie[/name\_f] unless she said she went by that.

[name\_f]Ruth[/name\_f]- love love love it!! Mostly cause I love [name\_f]Ruthie[/name\_f] as a nn it so cute pretty and timeless! What you said about it being simple yet strong I agree with 100%.

[name\_f]My[/name\_f] favorite from this list is [name\_f]Ruth[/name\_f] « [name\_f]Ruthie[/name\_f] »

Here’s some other ideas:  
Nora/Norah  
[name\_f]Stella[/name\_f]  
[name\_f]Iris[/name\_f]  
[name\_f]Elouise[/name\_f]  
[name\_f]Claire[/name\_f]  
[name\_f]Clara[/name\_f]  
[name\_f]Edith[/name\_f]  
[name\_f]Esther[/name\_f]  
[name\_u]June[/name\_u]  
[name\_f]Beatrice[/name\_f]  
[name\_f]May[/name\_f]

I love Rosemary! Plus it’s got the perfect nickname!

Susannah will definitely get shortened to nicknames. Can I suggest Savannah?

I also love Ruth, and Ruthie is adorable!

Ruth and Rosemary are both on my list as well 😁

I think you have some solid options, but here are a few more ideas:

Claire  
Lily  
Esther  
Miriam  
Rosalind  
Emma  
Cora  
Caroline

Thank you all for taking the time to respond with such great feedback and wonderful suggestions! It was so nice to read all your beautiful suggestions!

I think our front runners as of right now are [name\_f]Rose[/name\_f], [name\_f]Rosemary[/name\_f], and [name\_f]Ruth[/name\_f]. While I love [name\_f]Louisa[/name\_f], my husband just isn’t a fan so I’m removing it from the list (but secretly hoping he changes his mind throughout my pregnancy!). I’m still on the fence about [name\_f]Susannah[/name\_f] and all her nicknames, but will keep it on the list for now.

We discussed more options today and have added the following two names to our girls list:

[name\_f]Mabel[/name\_f] - I love how sweet and spunky this name is! I feel like it has sweet vintage charm but also has some gumption to it! I could imagine calling her “Able Mabel”!

[name\_f]Clara[/name\_f] - This is such a beautiful, elegant name and I love the connection to The Nutcracker. [name\_f]My[/name\_f] only concern is that I feel like I’ve heard the name [name\_f]Claire[/name\_f] a lot and I wonder if Claire/Clara is getting a little too trendy?

Thanks again for all your amazing feedback! 🙂

[name\_f]Sosie[/name\_f] is also a cute nickname for [name\_f]Susannah[/name\_f]. 💕

i think [name\_f]Clara[/name\_f] is lovely. it’s so classic and even as it gains popularity, it still strikes me as such a classic name. 💕

I feel like they are both trendy but not very popular yet. I like both.

How about:

[name\_f]Annabel[/name\_f]  
[name\_f]Kala[/name\_f]  
[name\_f]Amabel[/name\_f]  
[name\_f]May[/name\_f]  
[name\_f]Ophelia[/name\_f]
