I am only 13, so I’m not having any kids yet, but I have a character that I’m naming, who is a nutcracker doll. I am looking for a name that either means doll, or one that has a flowing, girly name, perhaps something a bit long. I don’t care the origin, popularity or style.
(If I shouldn’t be here since it’s not a real baby, let me know right away.)
I really like the name [name]Lydia[/name].
It was the name of the doll in the American Girl [name]Samantha[/name] books, so that has a connection in that way, to me.
What would be a good middle name for [name]Lydia[/name]?
I love the name [name]Lydia[/name]!
[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]
[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Claire[/name]
[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Cecily[/name]
[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Rosemary[/name]
[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Lucy[/name]
[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Helen[/name]
[name]Lydia[/name] [name]Vivienne[/name]
Other suggestions:
[name]Juliana[/name]
[name]Evangeline[/name]
Liviana
[name]Felicity[/name]
[name]Annora[/name]
[name]Eleanor[/name]
[name]Helena[/name]
[name]Marguerite[/name]
[name]Seraphina[/name]
[name]Viviana[/name]
[name]Elisabetta[/name]
[name]Jessamine[/name]
[name]Francesca[/name]
There are a lot of teens on Nameberry (like me!) who are not actually pregnant, so don’t worry!
[name]Clara[/name]! It doesn’t mean “doll,” but it’s the name of the little girl in the Nutcracker musical. It’s a beautiful name, with some of the same vintage charm as [name]Lydia[/name].
And, this is a great website for questions like yours. There are plenty of people on here who aren’t expecting - some of us (like me) already had our babies, but still find it fun to be involved in naming other people’s kids. There are writers looking to name characters. And there’s also plenty of teens and young adults daydreaming about what to name their kids some day.
I love [name]Lydia[/name] [name]Claire[/name]!!
[name]Francesca[/name] is also a gorgeous name…
Thank you so much for the suggestions.
That IS a lovely name… I believe it is pretty similar to [name]Claire[/name], and I think that would make a great mn for [name]Lydia[/name]. <3
Coming up with names is one of the most fun parts of writing for me. I also love to give my opinion, so I am happy to be here. =)
