New name please

If baby is a girl I was almost set on [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] but I actually don’t like it anymore, I see it everywhere and our family shortens it to [name_u]Penny[/name_u] all the time and I can’t stand [name_u]Penny[/name_u].

I like [name_f]Chloe[/name_f]- I know it’s popular but I don’t see it out there as much as [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] right now

I also like [name_f]Holly[/name_f] and [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]…

[name_f]Greta[/name_f] was on the list but was axed.

I am a big fan of [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] myself :slight_smile: [name_u]Penny[/name_u] is quite a happy name.

I love [name_f]Penelope[/name_f], [name_f]Hazel[/name_f], and [name_f]Greta[/name_f]. [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] is lovely but maybe hasn’t quite bounced back after having been so popular.

[name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] or [name_f]Cleo[/name_f]?

I love the name [name_f]Penelope[/name_f], but also hate [name_u]Penny[/name_u] so I have kind of sketched it off my list for the same reason.

From the other names I like [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] the most.

[name_f]Hazel[/name_f] is super adorable! I love it!

[name_f]My[/name_f] DH loves [name_f]Penelope[/name_f], but I just can’t use it now that the Kardashians got a hold of it. I was always on the fence with [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] regardless.

I love [name_f]Priscilla[/name_f] instead of [name_f]Penelope[/name_f]! [name_f]Priscilla[/name_f] has become one of my new name obsessions! I seriously hope I get the opportunity to use it some day.

I like [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] and [name_f]Greta[/name_f]! [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] is on our list but I fear since that movie came out with the lead actress named [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] and [name_f]Emily[/name_f] Blunt naming her daughter that it’s going to jump big time. So I have put that one way down on our list.

[name_f]Hazel[/name_f] is gorgeous, but I do think it’s going to gain in popularity, but if that doesn’t bother you I’d say go for it. I also really love [name_f]Greta[/name_f] & [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] they’re all wonderful choices. If you’re looking for something fresh I would suggest…

[name_f]Daphne[/name_f]
[name_f]Willa[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f]
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f]
[name_f]Ida[/name_f]
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]

[name_f]Chloe[/name_f] is my husbands favorite name! We were going to use it but decided not to due to our God Daughters name, [name_f]Zoey[/name_f]. If the popularity doesn’t bother you, and there aren’t a lot where you live it’d be a beautiful choice.

I am also not so crazy about [name_f]Penelope[/name_f]. The P sound throws me off. I don’t mind [name_u]Penny[/name_u], but I know many do not like it. I think because it is such a well known nn for [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] it’d be difficult to avoid completely especially if your family is already using it.

I think that thanks to the movie/book The Fault in our Stars [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] will sky rocket soon.

[name_f]Holly[/name_f] is a sweet name. One of my good friends in college was a [name_f]Holly[/name_f] [name_u]Lynn[/name_u].

I’m not sure if you’re looking for suggestions, but here are some just in case you are…
[name_f]Clea[/name_f]- I know a [name_f]Clea[/name_f] who says it like [name_m]Clay[/name_m]-uh and one that says it like Clee-uh
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f]
[name_f]Cliona[/name_f]
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Philippa[/name_f]
[name_f]Fiona[/name_f]
[name_f]Mabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]
[name_f]Molly[/name_f]

I think [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] is a great name! I like it much better than [name_f]Penelope[/name_f]. [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] and [name_f]Greta[/name_f] are nms at all. [name_f]Holly[/name_f] is a good name too.

I love [name_f]Hazel[/name_f]! I agree with liking [name_f]Penelope[/name_f], but disliking [name_u]Penny[/name_u]. [name_f]Holly[/name_f] is cute, too.
