Needing help with names!

Girl Names
1

We have 2 boys both with fairly southern rooted names, but we this time around we are needing a girl name! :slight_smile:

Names we like so far:
[name_u]Sutton[/name_u]
[name_u]Addison[/name_u]
[name_u]Scout[/name_u] --(If we were to use this I am on the fence about whether to use this as a middle name or pair it with something girly so that when she is older she could opt out of the name if she didn’t like it.)
[name_u]Abby[/name_u]
[name_f]Kate[/name_f]

Names that are in our family: [name_f]Katherine[/name_f], [name_f]Anne[/name_f], [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]

We are open to all suggestions so by all means fire away!

I would stay away from [name_u]Addison[/name_u], it’s pretty trendy right now and might sound dated in the future…

[name_u]Sutton[/name_u] could be cute for a little southern girl. I know it’s a common practice to use surnames for girls in the south so I think she will fit right in. I like [name_u]Scout[/name_u] but prefer it as a nickname or middle. [name_u]Abby[/name_u] and [name_f]Kate[/name_f] are both cute but kind of incomplete feeling for me. Some suggestions…

[name_u]Harper[/name_u]
[name_u]Avery[/name_u]
[name_u]Piper[/name_u]
[name_f]Sadie[/name_f]
[name_u]Fifer[/name_u]
[name_u]Hadley[/name_u]
[name_f]Annabelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Arabella[/name_f]
[name_u]Arden[/name_u]
[name_f]Harlow[/name_f]
[name_u]Holland[/name_u]
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
[name_u]Malin[/name_u]
[name_f]Nora[/name_f]
[name_f]Patience[/name_f]
[name_f]Tamsin[/name_f]
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u]

I really love Scout! I know a Scout who is 17 (I actually don’t know her middle name) and I’ve always been jealous of her name :wink:
I would go with Scout [girly middle name]. Some suggestions:
Scout Elizabeth (the classic, but beautiful)
Scout Felicity
Scout Annabelle
Scout Penelope
Scout Emmeline
Scout Lucille
Scout Juliette
Scout Rosalie
Good luck!

Edited to add: Scout Katherine would be incredible!

I like [name_u]Sutton[/name_u] for a southern girl.
I probably wouldn’t use [name_u]Scout[/name_u] as a first name nor use [name_u]Abby[/name_u] or [name_f]Kate[/name_f] (but rather longer, formal versions - [name_f]Abigail[/name_f], [name_f]Katherine[/name_f], etc).
[name_u]Addison[/name_u] is pretty popular, but it’s stylistically close to [name_u]Sutton[/name_u]. I see the appeal. Hmm…maybe consider these as well (though [name_u]Sutton[/name_u] sounds kind of perfect):

[name_m]Tennyson[/name_m]
[name_u]Harper[/name_u]
[name_u]Delaney[/name_u]
[name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Lily[/name_f]
[name_f]Daisy[/name_f]
[name_f]Eloise[/name_f]
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Martha[/name_f]
[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f]

this is my name ^^ and im a twelve year old girl. (my fist name and my middle name) this name may seem a little odd at first but ive been very proud of it since i was a little girl. the name means sincere and is an english name. it rolls off of the tounge easily and i often get compliments on the name. though many people think its a boys name, many girls also use it. i hope this helps! its a great name and many children have been named after me or been inspired to use this name for their new baby girls. i’d be honored if you used this!:smiley:
