Girl Names
1

We’ve picked out a boys name and would love to have a girl name picked out for a girl. With first two we didn’t pick til they were born, but it’d be fun to know ahead of time for once!

We can’t agree on a girls name and nothing feels perfect.

[name_m]Prior[/name_m] favorites:
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
Lulette nn [name_f]Lula[/name_f]
[name_f]Margo[/name_f]
[name_f]Rose[/name_f] (mine)
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f] (his)
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] nn [name_f]Betsey[/name_f] (mine, but he liked [name_f]Betsey[/name_f] if it were on the birth certificate)
[name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]

Currently he’s really into [name_f]Zelda[/name_f] and I want to love it but it just doesn’t feel quite right. I’m loving [name_f]Roxanna[/name_f] nn [name_f]Roxie[/name_f] but I’m not 100% on it. We agreed that be both like [name_f]Maple[/name_f], but it seems weird to use since it doesn’t have a special meaning for us, we just like it. If we were Canadian I’d be all for it.

Some ideas of my/our style:

[name_f]Luna[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] (too common for him)
[name_f]Marigold[/name_f]
[name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]
[name_f]Mary[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f]
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Moxie[/name_f]
[name_f]Penelope[/name_f]
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]
[name_f]Susannah[/name_f] (only I love this)
[name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] (same)

I’m looking for something special. I don’t know what it is. Having such a hard time. Combing through lists and nymbler and my family tree and not finding it!

Please help!

I love so many of your names! My favourites (from both lists) are:
[name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
[name_f]Margo[/name_f]
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Zelda[/name_f]
[name_f]Roxanna[/name_f] nn [name_f]Roxie[/name_f]
[name_f]Luna[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Marigold[/name_f]
[name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f]
[name_f]Moxie[/name_f]

Based on the names you already like, here are some suggestions:
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatriz[/name_f]
[name_f]Luella[/name_f] nn [name_f]Lula[/name_f]/[name_f]Lulu[/name_f]/[name_f]Elle[/name_f]/[name_f]Ellie[/name_f]/[name_f]Ella[/name_f]
[name_f]Mirabelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Maggie[/name_f]
[name_f]Daisy[/name_f]
[name_f]Isla[/name_f]
[name_f]Betty[/name_f]/[name_f]Bettie[/name_f] - Maybe this could be a compromise for [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]/[name_f]Betsey[/name_f]? I think [name_f]Betsey[/name_f] could work by itself on the birth certificate, but I prefer [name_f]Betty[/name_f]/[name_f]Bettie[/name_f]
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f]
[name_f]Delilah[/name_f]
[name_f]Dahlia[/name_f]

Thank you, that’s a great list!

[name_f]Daisy[/name_f] really jumps out at me. It’s sweet but cool and uncommon but known and a nature name. My oldest is [name_u]Dash[/name_u] though, and I’d really prefer not to repeat initials. Youngest is the type to feel left out that his siblings share an initial and he doesn’t. He cried yesterday because he’s the only one in the family whose favorite holiday is [name_f]Easter[/name_f]!

[name_f]Francesca[/name_f] was one of my very first favorites, and I love the nickname [name_f]Francie[/name_f]. Again, repeating sons initial! Grr!

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Isla[/name_f], [name_u]June[/name_u], [name_f]Flora[/name_f] and [name_f]Pippa[/name_f]! I have a 3 year old [name_f]Pippa[/name_f] in my class and love it more every single day. I generally try to avoid names of anyone I’ve ever known, lol. So I’m afraid [name_f]Pippa[/name_f] would be too close a memory for me. But maybe [name_f]Penelope[/name_f], [name_f]Pippi[/name_f]? Oh and [name_f]Nova[/name_f] is SO cool. It’s almost perfect, but I have a friend with a cat named [name_f]Nova[/name_f] and for some reason that bothers me.
