Opinions on Girls List

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] everyone! I’m [name_f]Briana[/name_f]… I have always been a lover of names, and used to frequent a message board on another name site. I recently found out I am pregnant and am hoping to join in on your discussions here.

Here is my current girls list, I would love to know your thoughts… and am definitely welcome to more suggestions!

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f]
[name_u]Everly[/name_u]
[name_f]Isla[/name_f]*
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]*
[name_f]Lena[/name_f]
[name_f]Mara[/name_f]
[name_f]Maya[/name_f]*
[name_u]Navy[/name_u]*
[name_u]Reese[/name_u]*

The ones with * have been approved by the hubby… I have to run them by him a couple at a time, lol.

I love all of them except [name_u]Navy[/name_u]. It just makes me think of the [name_u]Navy[/name_u].
My favourites are [name_f]Elodie[/name_f], [name_f]Isla[/name_f], [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] and [name_f]Maya[/name_f]. [name_m]How[/name_m] would you be pronouncing [name_f]Maya[/name_f]? [name_f]May[/name_f]-ah or my-ah?

I would pronounce it My-uh.

My favorites are [name_u]Everly[/name_u] and [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] (love both of these) and possibly pair nicely with:

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Reese[/name_u]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Maya[/name_f]
[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_u]Reese[/name_u]
[name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_f]Maya[/name_f]

My favorites are [name_f]Isla[/name_f], [name_f]Mara[/name_f] and [name_f]Maya[/name_f]. I really like [name_u]Reese[/name_u] as a middle name. I don’t care for [name_u]Navy[/name_u].

My favorites from your list are [name_f]Elodie[/name_f], [name_u]Everly[/name_u], [name_f]Maya[/name_f], and [name_u]Reese[/name_u]. I think [name_u]Reese[/name_u] would work great as a mn for [name_f]Elodie[/name_f], [name_u]Everly[/name_u], or [name_f]Maya[/name_f]! I don’t really love [name_f]Isla[/name_f] or [name_u]Navy[/name_u]. I think [name_u]Ellery[/name_u] is super cute too and that you might like it!

My favorites are [name_f]Isla[/name_f], [name_f]Mara[/name_f], And [name_f]Lena[/name_f]

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f]-nms
[name_u]Everly[/name_u]-nms
[name_f]Isla[/name_f]-pretty
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
-cute
[name_f]Lena[/name_f]-my opinion depends slightly upon how you pronounce it, but I like this name
[name_f]Mara[/name_f]- I like this name a lot
[name_f]Maya[/name_f]- pretty name. Reminds me of maya [name_m]Rudolph[/name_m] but also of the [name_f]Maya[/name_f].
[name_u]Navy[/name_u]
- nms
[name_u]Reese[/name_u]*- reminds me of [name_u]Reese[/name_u] Witherspoon, but somehow I still think of this as a male name

I like [name_f]Isla[/name_f] and [name_f]Elodie[/name_f]. The rest not so much my style, but the only one I really don’t like is [name_u]Navy[/name_u].

My favourite is [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]!

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f]- not a fan.
[name_u]Everly[/name_u]- too trendy.
[name_f]Isla[/name_f]- very pretty.
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
- love love love.
[name_f]Lena[/name_f]- I don’t like it but I don’t dislike it either.
[name_f]Mara[/name_f]- not a fan.
[name_f]Maya[/name_f]- I love love [name_f]Maya[/name_f], it’s so pretty.
[name_u]Navy[/name_u]
- I don’t like this at all.
[name_u]Reese[/name_u]* - My sister’s middle name, I love it.

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] is pretty.
[name_u]Everly[/name_u] is quite nice but I feel it will sound dated in 10 years.
[name_f]Isla[/name_f] is lovely, just bear in mind that’s very popular.
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f] is adorable, I love this name.
[name_f]Lena[/name_f] - meh. I find this name quite boring.
[name_f]Mara[/name_f] - don’t like or dislike.
[name_f]Maya[/name_f] - one of my favourite names, I love it.
[name_u]Navy[/name_u] - is this a name?
[name_u]Reese[/name_u] - probably an unpopular opinion but I have always found this name ugly to look at and say. I don’t like the long ee sound and it rhymes with grease. It sounds lispy to me. Also despite [name_u]Reese[/name_u] Witherspoon it’s a boy name where I’m from.

In order from my favourite to least favourite:

[name_f]Isla[/name_f]- Feels modern and fun, and feminine without being frilly.
[name_f]Maya[/name_f]
- Feels versatile and easy to wear, a name that would suit many different kinds of girls
[name_u]Reese[/name_u]- Spunky and different. It feels unisex skewing feminine to me, since it doesn’t have a particularly masculine or feminine sound, but the only one I’ve ever known of is [name_u]Reese[/name_u] Witherspoon and I haven’t met a [name_u]Reese[/name_u] in real life.
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
- one of those names with a long history of use that feels established and timeless but modern at the same time
[name_f]Mara[/name_f]- sweet and wearable, but doesn’t excite me
[name_f]Lena[/name_f]- same as [name_f]Mara[/name_f]
[name_u]Everly[/name_u]- a bit too cutesy for me
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f]- with exceptions, don’t tend to be a fan of the long O sound, though I normally like [name_f]El[/name_f]- names
[name_u]Navy[/name_u]*- I have trouble seeing this as a name, sorry. I like unusual colour names but this one just seems too much like an everyday word.

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] -yes its a very lovely name
[name_u]Everly[/name_u] - I hear the appeal but I think its likely to be subject to confusion with other names.
[name_f]Isla[/name_f] ditto PP, lovely but soo popular
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f] is nmfav. but that’s very personal and I think without this bias its a spunky name especially with a great middle.
[name_f]Lena[/name_f] - It is a little bland but if you love it -I find no problems. Its pretty.
[name_f]Mara[/name_f] - I actually grew to like this name. A young talent contestant had a name like Maralisa (only not) and as those involved became close to her, she was called [name_f]Mara[/name_f] - It pulled at my heartstrings.
[name_f]Maya[/name_f] - I support [name_f]Maya[/name_f] 100%
[name_u]Navy[/name_u] & [name_u]Reese[/name_u] nms sorry.

You have some lovely name choices!

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f]: I do like although at times it can sound incomplete to me, and makes me think it should be [name_f]Melody[/name_f]
[name_u]Everly[/name_u]: I think you have nicer names in your list but it is ok.
[name_f]Isla[/name_f]: I love [name_f]Isla[/name_f] but it is so popular
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
: Simple yet sweet and suits any age
[name_f]Lena[/name_f]: I really love [name_f]Lena[/name_f], I think it is under appreciated.
[name_f]Mara[/name_f]: I prefer it as a nickname to [name_f]Amara[/name_f] but it is a lovely name
[name_f]Maya[/name_f]: [name_u]Love[/name_u]
[name_u]Navy[/name_u]
: Not a name to me, sorry
[name_u]Reese[/name_u]*: I want to like but just don’t although I think it would be good in middle place

[name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_u]Reese[/name_u] would be lovely! I also like [name_f]Maya[/name_f] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]. Very nice taste :slight_smile:

My favorite is [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]. I also like [name_f]Maya[/name_f] and [name_u]Reese[/name_u].

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f]- 6/10 it’s not my personal style but I do think it’s pretty
[name_u]Everly[/name_u]- 8/10 A pretty name! Reminds me of early 1900’s but is still pretty enough to make a comeback!
[name_f]Isla[/name_f]-5/10 not my personal style
[name_f]Ivy[/name_f]- 8/10 I think it’d be best used as a middle name considering it’s 1 syllable…it all depends on last name tbh
[name_f]Lena[/name_f]-9/10 very pretty…makes me think of water for some reason
[name_f]Mara[/name_f]-7/10 depending on pronunciation…“Mahr-ah” or “[name_f]Mare[/name_f]-ah” …I think “Mahr-ah” is pretty
[name_f]Maya[/name_f]-6/10 not my personal style but think it would sound good as a middle name
[name_u]Navy[/name_u]-9/10 have never heard this name before! [name_u]Unique[/name_u] and refreshing
[name_u]Reese[/name_u]-7/10
