My mind is blank for names!

I am expecting and I just cannot think of any girl names!! Before I was pregnant I had a million, and suddenly most of them don’t excite me anymore.

My husband likes [name_f]Zinnia[/name_f] and [name_f]Coraline[/name_f]. I like these names, but I have had them on lists for so long that I don’t really want to use them anymore. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you like them with my children’s names?

I have been liking the name [name_f]Alta[/name_f]. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you like it with my children’s names?

I tend like names that have a nature feel, but also some sort of vintage charm. I am looking for a name that isn’t overused in the threads because I feel like I have seen them all. If there is something that you think goes especially well let me know though! Thank you!!!:smiley:

I also like [name_f]Zara[/name_f], but does this go at all?

With your kids’ names, I love [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] and like [name_f]Alta[/name_f], but am not too crazy about [name_f]Zinnia[/name_f].

A few ideas that don’t get tossed around in these threads too often - tried to add some vintage and/or subtle nature names:

[name_f]Ardith[/name_f]
[name_f]Carmella[/name_f]
[name_f]Enid[/name_f]
[name_f]Fay[/name_f]
[name_u]Linden[/name_u]
[name_f]Marilla[/name_f]
[name_f]Martine[/name_f]
[name_f]Maura[/name_f]
[name_f]Naia[/name_f]
[name_f]Rima[/name_f]
[name_f]Tamar[/name_f]
[name_f]Tansy[/name_f]
[name_u]Yarrow[/name_u]
[name_f]Yesenia[/name_f]

Good luck. :slight_smile:

Okay you wanted different so I’m going to give you my GP name:

[name_u]Paisley[/name_u]

It’s not well liked in the forum’s but I personally love it. It also has the softness of your other children’s names.

As far as boys go I like [name_u]Aspen[/name_u], [name_m]Birch[/name_m], [name_u]Cedar[/name_u], [name_m]Hawthorne[/name_m], etc. Maybe [name_u]Sequoia[/name_u] for a girl? Did I even spell that right? I just think tree names
are under used.

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] that helps!

Oh , I like esrever88’s idea of [name_f]Tansy[/name_f]. It has a nice vintage feel.

Thank you so much!! I am excited to ponder these names. :slight_smile:
I am going to start with [name_f]Enid[/name_f], [name_f]Naia[/name_f], and [name_u]Yarrow[/name_u]

Thank you for your thoughtful suggestions.
I like [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] as well, but I like it as a full name, but not so much [name_f]Cora[/name_f] on it’s own (which is strange because it used to be my #1 pick!)

Oh yes I agree!! I like the feel of it too. I have never thought of it before so that is a plus. Thank you for your input!

Thank you for your suggestions! I haven’t really thought too hard about [name_u]Paisley[/name_u], but it does have a similar softness. It is nice to have new suggestions because my mind has been stuck on the same names for so long. I really like all of your suggestions for boys. I like [name_u]Sequoia[/name_u] too, I am just not sure if it goes well enough with my children’t names. Maybe it could!

I can totally empathize with how you’re feeling…I’m still stumped on what name we’d choose for a girl…I have an idea, but it’s not locked-in…my tastes change like the weather re girl names…but we’re about 99% sure for our boy’s name…

I also thought it would be easy to choose a girl’s name…but it’s proving really difficult.

As for the name [name_f]Zara[/name_f], I think it’s a gorgeous name. Very classic.

Other vintage nature names to go with [name_m]Delmer[/name_m] & [name_u]June[/name_u]:

[name_f]Eve[/name_f]
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f]
[name_f]Odette[/name_f]
[name_f]Snow[/name_f]
[name_u]Winter[/name_u]
[name_f]Autumn[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]
[name_f]Gardenia[/name_f]
[name_f]Leda[/name_f]
[name_f]Sigrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
[name_f]Violetta[/name_f]
[name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f]Garland[/name_f]
[name_f]Margaux[/name_f]
[name_f]Marigold[/name_f]
[name_f]Tara[/name_f]
[name_f]Giselle[/name_f]
Iolite
[name_f]Amethyst[/name_f]
[name_f]Holly[/name_f]
[name_f]Holiday[/name_f]

I’ll add more if I think of them…good luck!

Oceansunrise thank you for your suggestions and empathy!!
I am glad you like [name_f]Zara[/name_f], I was not sure if it would go. I am drawn to [name_f]Snow[/name_f], [name_f]Holiday[/name_f], [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f], and [name_f]Marigold[/name_f]. I am going to think more about [name_f]Gardenia[/name_f] and [name_f]Leda[/name_f] because I think I like them too.

Another name I am drawn to is [name_f]Sunniva[/name_f], but I don’t know if it goes with my children’s names either. What do you think?

Thank you again for your suggestions!

[name_m]Delmer[/name_m], [name_u]June[/name_u], and

[name_f]Atlanta[/name_f] -sorry, I don’t care for alta much

[name_f]Hazel[/name_f]

[name_f]Iris[/name_f]

[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]

[name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]

[name_f]Rosemarie[/name_f]

[name_u]Ruby[/name_u], [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], [name_f]Gemma[/name_f]

[name_f]Lark[/name_f], [name_u]Wren[/name_u], or [name_f]Florence[/name_f] with the nn wren

[name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f], [name_u]Robin[/name_u], [name_f]Jasmine[/name_f]

[name_f]Aurora[/name_f], [name_f]Aurore[/name_f](sounds like aura in [name_m]French[/name_m])

[name_u]Ivory[/name_u], [name_f]Hyacinth[/name_f], [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]

[name_f]Coralyn[/name_f], [name_f]Cora[/name_f], [name_f]Dawn[/name_f], or [name_f]Lorelei[/name_f] (laurel, laurence, or laurette)

I suggest [name_f]Alma[/name_f] as a lovely alternative to [name_f]Alta[/name_f]… It retains that vintage softness and classicism of [name_m]Delmer[/name_m] and [name_u]June[/name_u].
Or perhaps:
[name_u]Adair[/name_u]
[name_f]Ada[/name_f]
[name_f]Antonia[/name_f]
[name_f]Aster[/name_f]
[name_f]Betrys[/name_f]

ashleyjuliette Thank you for your suggestions! I actually really like [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], but my husband doesn’t :frowning: [name_f]Florence[/name_f] is one I haven’t thought of that I think I like. Thank you!

mulme944 Thank you for you list! I like [name_u]Adair[/name_u], [name_f]Ada[/name_f], [name_f]Helena[/name_f], and [name_f]Alma[/name_f] is a good suggestion as well. Thank you!

apollonia My husband really likes the name [name_m]Orville[/name_m]! My son [name_m]Delmer[/name_m] is named after his great grandpa, and I guess his best friend was named [name_m]Orville[/name_m]. :slight_smile:

I do think [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] and [name_f]Marjorie[/name_f] could grow on me. Thank you!

I like the previous suggestions [name_f]Aurore[/name_f] (I actually like this better than [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] or [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f] which are the more popular options), [name_f]Zara[/name_f] and [name_f]Gardenia[/name_f]. These names give me vintage, nature vibes:
[name_m]Delmer[/name_m] and [name_u]June[/name_u] have a goddess feel to me so I added names with that aspect/feel to them [name_f]IMO[/name_f] anyway :slight_smile:

[name_m]Delmer[/name_m], [name_u]June[/name_u] and [name_f]Alba[/name_f]

[name_m]Delmer[/name_m], [name_u]June[/name_u] and [name_f]Hyacinth[/name_f]
[name_m]Delmer[/name_m], [name_u]June[/name_u] and [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]

[name_m]Delmer[/name_m], [name_u]June[/name_u] and Avalea
[name_m]Delmer[/name_m], [name_u]June[/name_u] and [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f] - love
[name_m]Delmer[/name_m], [name_u]June[/name_u] and [name_f]Lara[/name_f]
[name_m]Delmer[/name_m], [name_u]June[/name_u] and Daislah (pronounced Daze-la) -hippy, vintage, natural

I truly adore those names, [name_f]Anna[/name_f]. Irresistibly cute!

You will find the right name! We never decided until we had met our baby. We just brought a short list to the hospital. I like your hubs pics but don’t love [name_f]Alta[/name_f]. Also, I don’t love the name [name_f]Tansy[/name_f]. I like the sound of the name, but it’s a invasive, noxious weed (also called tansy ragwort). We were forever trying to get rid of it growing up as it is poisonous and would possibly kill the horses if they ate it.

[name_f]Zinnia[/name_f], [name_f]Coraline[/name_f], [name_f]Alta[/name_f] and [name_f]Zara[/name_f] are all lovely with [name_m]Delmer[/name_m] and [name_u]June[/name_u].

And I think [name_f]Sunniva[/name_f] works as well.
