Yet another name we like, but unfortunately can’t use, is [name_f]Fiona[/name_f]. Can you suggest names that have a similar sound or feel? Big sister is [name_f]Amelia[/name_f].
Other names we’re considering at the moment are:
[name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] nn [name_u]Sasha[/name_u]
[name_f]Myriam[/name_f] or [name_f]Miriam[/name_f]
And I love [name_f]Bianca[/name_f], but my husband is not a fan…
Thanks!
[name_f]Shona[/name_f] has the same kind of sound as [name_f]Fiona[/name_f]
I love [name_f]Miriam[/name_f]!!
And [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] & [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] seem to have the sort of feel as [name_f]Fiona[/name_f].
I agree that [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] and [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] have the same feel.
[name_f]Claudia[/name_f] and [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] sprang to mind.
What about [name_u]Darcy[/name_u]? [name_f]Wren[/name_f]? [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f]? [name_f]Flora[/name_f]? [name_f]Viola[/name_f]?
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] and [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] also are on a similar wavelength in my head, but they tend to be very love or hate names.
[name_m]How[/name_m] about:
[name_f]Chloe[/name_f]
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f]
[name_f]Cliona[/name_f]
[name_f]Fianna[/name_f]
[name_f]Finola[/name_f]

I know a beautiful baby girl Siona.

I love [name_f]Miriam[/name_f]! (Though I hate the [name_f]Myriam[/name_f] spelling…ugh.) I’m not quite sure whether you mean similar in sound, or similar in style, so I’ll give both.
[name_f]Fianna[/name_f] is a lovely Irish name that sounds similar to [name_f]Fiona[/name_f].
Stylistically similar names to [name_f]Fiona[/name_f]: [name_f]Thalia[/name_f], [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]/[name_f]Maeva[/name_f], [name_f]Rowena[/name_f], [name_f]Alanna[/name_f], [name_f]Catriona[/name_f] nn [name_f]Cat[/name_f], [name_f]Moira[/name_f], [name_u]Sage[/name_u], [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] nn [name_f]Delia[/name_f], [name_f]Iona[/name_f], [name_f]Gwyneth[/name_f], [name_f]Nora[/name_f], [name_f]Myrna[/name_f].
I like the suggestions of [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f], [name_f]Daphne[/name_f], and [name_f]Claudia[/name_f]. Other names you may like are [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] and…

Thanks everyone!
So far I really like [name_f]Daphne[/name_f], [name_f]Nola[/name_f] and [name_f]Fianna[/name_f].
And how do you think [name_f]Fianna[/name_f] should be pronounced? I don’t like the authentic Irish pronunciation given by Nameberry, but do you know if that’s only for the political party? Hmm…
I also like, but can’t use:
[name_f]Lydia[/name_f]
[name_f]Naomi[/name_f]
[name_f]Elowen[/name_f]
[name_f]Freda[/name_f]
[name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f]

[name_f]Felicity[/name_f]
[name_f]Siobhan[/name_f]
Chenoa (native American, I’ve forgotten which language, but it means “dove”)
There is Siona, I Siyona, which is sanskrit and very easy to pronounce. Then there is also [name_f]Sonia[/name_f].
Well, we have very similar taste in names so I will just throw some of my own favorites out there.

Some of the names don’t work well with [name_f]Amelia[/name_f], because of the -lia endings.

Either because they sound similar or are Scottish too.
