Girl Names

Hello, Berries :slight_smile:

I have been coming here as soon as I found out that we are expecting our baby #2 in [name_u]January[/name_u]. We will find out the gender on [name_f]Wednesday[/name_f] coming week!

I had a few ideas earlier that I was pretty happy about though due to some personal things I am back to Idea [name_m]Zero[/name_m] again!

We do already have a set middle name for a boy and I am pretty set on no middle name if it’s a girl.
So, I need some ideas for both gender first names!

FYI, our surname is [name_m]French[/name_m]/[name_m]German[/name_m] and we might be moving to Germany or somewhere in Europe so I would love to know all the ideas from native [name_m]German[/name_m] Berries or European Berries :slight_smile:

[name_f]TIA[/name_f] xo

I know two little [name_m]German[/name_m] girls called [name_f]Lea[/name_f] and [name_f]Stella[/name_f].

[name_f]Lea[/name_f] sounds very cute! Thanks for the lovely ideas :slight_smile:

Thank you so much for the full list! I am liking [name_f]Clara[/name_f] and [name_f]Luna[/name_f]!

That’s not a full list. That’s suggestions of popular/trendy names across Europe.

8

I would strongly advice against those trendy names tho, because their popularity is overwhelming

9

I recommend looking at the [name_m]German[/name_m] popularity charts on the beliebte-Vornamen website for inspiration.

For Scandinavian names, there are similar popularity charts on the Nordic Names website.

Thanks for the ideas!

Thanks for your opinion. I am staying away from [name_f]Emma[/name_f] especially too and those top ones are always too English anyways.

Thanks for the links!
