I love the idea of “little black dress” names, but when I think of my own list, the image I’m overwhelmed with is akin to the line from Sound of [name_f]Music[/name_f]: “girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes”. Names like [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f], [name_f]Lydia[/name_f], [name_f]Felicity[/name_f], [name_f]Clara[/name_f], and [name_f]Edith[/name_f].
What names would you add to this list?
Not sure if I’m getting this right but…
[name_f]Marie[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f]
[name_f]Faye[/name_f]
[name_f]Lily[/name_f]/[name_f]Lillian[/name_f]
[name_f]Vivianne[/name_f]
[name_f]Sue[/name_f]
?
[name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], [name_f]Lavinia[/name_f], [name_f]Lucienne[/name_f], [name_f]Louise[/name_f], [name_f]Hettie[/name_f], [name_f]Sophie[/name_f], [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
I imagine delicate, dainty, and fresh:
[name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f]Susannah[/name_f]
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f]
[name_f]Poppy[/name_f]
[name_f]Lillian[/name_f]
[name_f]Mary[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
All of those are exactly what I imagined to fit right in!
Aw, this is such a cute thread! I love the Sound of [name_f]Music[/name_f]. I would add [name_u]Eloise[/name_u], [name_f]Alice[/name_f], [name_f]Rose[/name_f], and [name_f]Belle[/name_f], and strongly echo [name_f]Sophie[/name_f], [name_f]Josephine[/name_f], [name_f]Felicity[/name_f], and [name_f]Clara[/name_f].
@larkburb101, [name_f]Belle[/name_f], [name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_f]Alice[/name_f], and [name_u]Eloise[/name_u] are so perfect!
[name_f]Meg[/name_f]
[name_f]Daisy[/name_f]

[name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Linnea[/name_f]
[name_f]Hanna[/name_f]
[name_f]Eleni[/name_f]
[name_f]Juni[/name_f]
[name_f]Cassia[/name_f]
[name_f]Meadow[/name_f]
[name_f]April[/name_f]
I guess I was thinking of little white dresses with black patent leather shoes for little girls, so I thought at once of [name_f]Mary[/name_f] and [name_f]Priscilla[/name_f] and [name_f]Heidi[/name_f]. Maybe on the wrong track though.
[name_u]Leslie[/name_u]
@dream.create, [name_f]Daisy[/name_f], Fluer, [name_f]Linnea[/name_f], and [name_f]Cassia[/name_f] are lovely!
@lesliemarion, not on the wrong track at all! [name_f]Heidi[/name_f] and [name_f]Mary[/name_f] are gorgeous!
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Louisa[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_u]Eloise[/name_u]
[name_f]Tessa[/name_f]

[name_f]Luna[/name_f]
[name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Lily[/name_f]
[name_f]Ruth[/name_f]
[name_f]Helen[/name_f]
[name_m]How[/name_m] lovely! All of those are such beautiful names.
[name_f]Pollyanna[/name_f], [name_f]Cynthia[/name_f], [name_f]Margaret[/name_f], [name_f]SuEllen[/name_f], [name_f]Florence[/name_f], [name_f]Natalie[/name_f], [name_f]Lizabeth[/name_f], [name_u]Ainsley[/name_u], [name_f]Marcella[/name_f], [name_f]Rebecca[/name_f], [name_f]Diantha[/name_f], [name_f]Evalina[/name_f], [name_f]Carolina[/name_f], [name_f]Johannah[/name_f], [name_f]Sharon[/name_f], [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f], [name_f]Bethany[/name_f], BonnieAnn, Bonnilyn, [name_f]Larissa[/name_f], [name_f]Lorinda[/name_f], [name_f]LoriAnn[/name_f].
It occurred to me while reading your names that [name_f]Florence[/name_f] [name_f]Evalina[/name_f] would be absolutely beautiful! As are the rest of your ideas.
Apologies for repeats…

Oh, so many lovely names!
I apologize in advance for any repeats. I also apologize if I’m on the wrong track. I’m just picturing a little girl in a pretty white dress with a satin sash and long, pretty hair. In my mind she kind of looks like a porcelain doll brought to life so a lot of these names will probably be very porcelain-doll-like.
