What name would you pick for a girl who fits this description? She’s classy but not trendy nor artsy. She’s smart enough that she doesn’t feel like she has to prove anything. Although she’s naturally pretty and well-kept, she’s not really into glamour or fashion.
She can be sassy and put people in their place, but she gives a first impression of being a bit shy. She has a few close friends, but she gets along well enough with most people. She likes to read and think to herself, but she also enjoys thoughtful discussions.
She has her own way of doing things, and she isn’t about to apologize for any of her quirks. She doesn’t fit cleanly into stereotypes–she’s neither modern nor traditional, neither tomboy nor princess, neither nerd nor cheerleader.
[name]Hi[/name] Awm,
Believe it or not, you just described my 8-year-old daughter! All the things you described fit her! Her name is [name]Emily[/name], which means hard-working and energetic. She is also not a tomboy, but not a princess. She is very sweet and kind, and we think her name fits her well! (I know [name]Emily[/name] is super-popular, but we actually know more [name]Emma[/name]'s than [name]Emily[/name]'s.)
If not that, I could see her as an [name]Anna[/name], [name]Emily[/name], [name]Grace[/name], [name]Holly[/name] (!?), [name]Julia[/name], [name]Lana[/name], [name]Natalie[/name], [name]Quinn[/name], [name]Reese[/name], or [name]Sara[/name].
I am biased because I picked these names for my daughters, but I love [name]Annalise[/name] and [name]Emmaline[/name]. They are not common at all and sound beautiful and classic. I’ve had nothing but compliments from others for their names.
