FTM Lost for Girl Names

General Name Discussion
1

We are expecting our first and not finding out the gender. For boys, we have two that we have agreed on but I am still open to ideas. For girls, we are really lost and I need ideas. I like elegant and feminine names that are not extremely popular. Any suggestions welcome!

Boys:
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Henry[/name_m]
[name_m]Bennett[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] ([name_m]Arthur[/name_m] is a family name)

Girls:
[name_f]Lorelei[/name_f] (the only one we agree on but I’m not sure if I love it)
[name_f]Chloe[/name_f] (DH choice, I am ruling out because of the pop culture references and popularity)
[name_f]Helena[/name_f] (DH said no)
[name_f]Caroline[/name_f] (too close to my name)
[name_f]Marin[/name_f]
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f] (we are both on the fence with this one)
[name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] (DH said no)
[name_u]Evelyn[/name_u] (too popular)

[name_m]Hi[/name_m],
[name_m]Calm[/name_m] down and take it slowly.
When I had mine first, it was also tough to cope.

[name_f]Lorelei[/name_f] and [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] seem good

11

For a boy, I’d go with [name_m]Bennett[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] because [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Henry[/name_m] is that style of name to the extreme.

[name_f]Lorelei[/name_f] - If you’re not sure you love it, than take it off your list.
[name_f]Caroline[/name_f] - You could consider it as a middle, if you like it. [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t worry about that fact that it’s similar to your name.
[name_f]Marin[/name_f] - [name_f]Marin[/name_f] is alright. Not my favorite, but still a nice choice.
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f] - If you’re both on the fence, take it off your list.

[name_f]Elsa[/name_f], [name_f]Adeline[/name_f], [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f], [name_f]Matilda[/name_f], [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f], [name_f]Emma[/name_f], [name_f]Willa[/name_f], [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], [name_f]Anna[/name_f], [name_u]Julie[/name_u]/[name_f]Julia[/name_f], [name_f]Alice[/name_f], [name_f]Emilie[/name_f], [name_f]Adele[/name_f], [name_f]Lilian[/name_f]/[name_f]Lillian[/name_f], [name_f]Etta[/name_f], [name_f]Nora[/name_f], [name_f]Lucy[/name_f], [name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_f]Ella[/name_f], [name_f]Bernadine[/name_f], [name_f]Winifred[/name_f], [name_f]Amalia[/name_f], [name_f]Ada[/name_f], [name_f]Hannah[/name_f], [name_f]Victoria[/name_f], [name_f]Louise[/name_f]/[name_f]Louisa[/name_f], [name_f]Eloise[/name_f], [name_f]Audrey[/name_f], [name_f]Alberta[/name_f], [name_f]Monika[/name_f], [name_f]Clara[/name_f], [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f], [name_f]Abigail[/name_f], [name_f]Lena[/name_f], [name_f]Lydia[/name_f], [name_f]Sophie[/name_f], [name_f]Elvira[/name_f], [name_f]Stella[/name_f], [name_f]Lila[/name_f], [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f], [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f], [name_f]Emilia[/name_f], [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f], [name_f]Elsie[/name_f], [name_f]Claire[/name_f]
