I have one daughter, [name_f]Lila[/name_f], and am expecting another little girl. [name_f]Lila[/name_f] was basically our one girl name, so now we are a bit stuck. I need some name inspiration! We are looking for something feminine and traditional, but a little different.
Some potential names we’ve tossed about, but haven’t fallen in love with like we did with [name_f]Lila[/name_f] are:
I like [name_f]Tess[/name_f]/[name_f]Tessa[/name_f] and [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] with [name_f]Lila[/name_f] and maybe [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] instead of [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]?
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] is lovely! I really love [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], [name_f]Tessa[/name_f]/[name_f]Tess[/name_f], [name_f]Annabel[/name_f], and [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] with it (I love [name_f]Lottie[/name_f], but [name_f]Lila[/name_f] and [name_f]Lottie[/name_f] might be a bit matchy, so maybe the fuller [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] is better, after all). I feel like [name_f]Lila[/name_f] and [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] are utterly perfect together, but [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] seems to be a bit of an acquired taste here in [name_u]America[/name_u]. I think something like [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] or [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] would be great with [name_f]Lila[/name_f], too.
I also have a [name_f]Lila[/name_f] and had a very hard time naming our second daughter. We ended up going with [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] “[name_f]Evie[/name_f]”.
[name_f]Evie[/name_f] was so close to being [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] other names on our list were:
[name_f]Juliet[/name_f]
[name_f]Tessa[/name_f]
[name_f]Aria[/name_f]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
[name_u]Marlowe[/name_u]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
[name_f]Willow[/name_f]
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f]
[name_f]Anya[/name_f]
[name_f]Elowen[/name_f]
Here are some more ideas.
[name_f]Serena[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f]
[name_f]Adele[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Miranda[/name_f]
[name_f]Sadie[/name_f]
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f]
[name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] & [name_f]Tessa[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] & [name_f]Annika[/name_f] – know a few [name_f]Annika[/name_f]'s who are not Scandinavian in the least.
Personally adore the name [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] – cute nn of [name_f]Margot[/name_f] or [name_f]Rita[/name_f], which sound adorable with [name_f]Lila[/name_f].
Some suggestions:
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] & [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] & [name_f]Fiona[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] & [name_f]Cora[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] & [name_f]Brielle[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] & [name_f]Amira[/name_f], [name_f]Mira[/name_f] or [name_f]Mina[/name_f] (personally love [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] with nn of [name_f]Mina[/name_f])
I really like [name_f]Lila[/name_f] and [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], [name_f]Lila[/name_f] and [name_f]Belinda[/name_f], and [name_f]Lila[/name_f] and [name_f]Margot[/name_f].
What about…? (sorry for any repeats)
[name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Harriet[/name_f]
[name_f]Henrietta[/name_f]
[name_f]Millicent[/name_f] (also gets you to [name_f]Millie[/name_f])
[name_f]Etta[/name_f]
[name_f]Camille[/name_f]
[name_f]Alma[/name_f]
Thanks so much for the great suggestions and input! We’ve added some more names to our list. You all have given me some fantastic food for thought. Thanks again.
