Girl suggestions - Denmark

[charlottee]

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all,

[name_f]My[/name_f] husband and I are lucky enough to get a first child in the middle of [name_u]August[/name_u], which is a girl. I can, for some reason, only find boy names that I like:

• [name_u]August[/name_u]
• [name_u]William[/name_u]
• [name_m]Evander[/name_m]

I would like it be a name that is international but can be pronounced in [name_m]Denmark[/name_m] as well. [name_f]My[/name_f] husband likes shorter and very sweet names but none of them really resonates with me:

• [name_f]Ava[/name_f]
• [name_f]Nora[/name_f]

Any ideas?

[name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_u]Alma[/name_u]
[name_u]Alba[/name_u]

[name_f]Heidi[/name_f]

[Parfait_de_Roses]

[name_f]Do[/name_f] you have an aesthetic you would especially like to capture with the name? Maybe we could come up with something that really matches it.
Right now it looks like something classical + a bit sweet?

[name_f]Anneliese[/name_f]
[name_f]Annabel[/name_f] / [name_f]Rosabel[/name_f] / [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] / Florabel / Elsabel
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] / Rosabeth / Florabeth
[name_f]Juliette[/name_f]
[name_f]Penelope[/name_f]
[name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f]Bianca[/name_f]
[name_f]Leonie[/name_f]
[name_f]Ellaria[/name_f]
[name_f]Freya[/name_f]

[name_u]Cleo[/name_u]
[name_f]Frida[/name_f]
[name_f]Noelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Avalon[/name_f]

[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
Chalotra
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f]
[name_f]Emily[/name_f]
[name_f]Margarethe[/name_f]
[name_f]Madeline[/name_f]

[name_u]Or[/name_u] maybe cute short combos like Ellie-May, Daisy-June etc ?

[shells15]

I’m not sure about the two you’ve written about as I’m not great with pronunciations in [name_m]Danish[/name_m], but I did go through my family tree of girl names that are straight out of [name_m]Denmark[/name_m] (only back through the late 1500s).

[name_f]Ane[/name_f] (yes, only 1 N)
[name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_u]Anne[/name_u]
[name_f]Dorthe[/name_f]
[name_f]Elise[/name_f]
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f]
[name_f]Else[/name_f]
[name_f]Karen[/name_f]
[name_f]Kirsten[/name_f]
[name_f]Kristen[/name_f]
[name_f]Maren[/name_f]
[name_u]Marie[/name_u]
[name_f]Mette[/name_f]
[name_f]Sophie[/name_f]

I hope these help or at least give you some inspiration.

I thought at first you were considering [name_m]Denmark[/name_m] as a name, like [name_f]India[/name_f] or [name_u]Kenya[/name_u] or innumerable other place names I was like, “Well, [name_u]Denny[/name_u] and [name_m]Mark[/name_m] are cute nicknames, I guess.”

[elffff]

I’m going to try to hit some that haven’t been suggested yet:

[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] “Liv/Livy”
[name_f]Mia[/name_f]
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] “Mia”
[name_f]Heidi[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f]
[name_f]Leona[/name_f]
[name_f]Adela[/name_f]
[name_f]Della[/name_f]
[name_f]Dahlia[/name_f]
[name_u]Hazel[/name_u]
[name_f]Elowen[/name_f]
[name_f]Audrey[/name_f]

hope these help
