Please help! Girl names...

I’m trying to decide about some girls names, and so I would love some help!

Here is my list:

[name_f]Aria[/name_f]
[name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_f]Autumn[/name_f]
[name_f]Avalon[/name_f]
[name_u]Blair[/name_u]
[name_f]Briar[/name_f]
[name_u]Cassidy[/name_u]
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
[name_u]Eden[/name_u]- too religious maybe?
[name_f]Eowyn[/name_f]
[name_m]Everley[/name_m]
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]- too long?
Kestrel
[name_u]Rylie[/name_u]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f]- too popular?
[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f]- too long?
[name_u]Sierra[/name_u]

I know it’s kind of long, sorry :joy:

Personally, I really like [name_f]Audrey[/name_f], [name_f]Autumn[/name_f], [name_f]Briar[/name_f] and Kestrel!

I also don’t think [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] or [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] are too long.

If you’re worried about [name_u]Eden[/name_u] being too religious, have you considered [name_f]Edith[/name_f]? Very different style-wise but also comes with the lovely [name_f]Edie[/name_f] as a nickname. I think it has a very similar feel to [name_f]Audrey[/name_f].

Are you trying to edit down your list? I see two different styles here. Girly and classic, and more modern and tomboyish. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you have a preference?

My favorites here:
[name_f]Aria[/name_f] -I love [name_u]Ari[/name_u]- names and even though it’s on trend right now, it still feels fresh. [name_f]Aria[/name_f] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] is my suggestion, feels modern.
[name_f]Briar[/name_f] -Always have liked the Sleeping Beauty connection. Feels feminine but not in an obvious way. I would pair with a girlier middle, like [name_f]Briar[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f].
[name_u]Cassidy[/name_u] -I like this slightly better on boys, but am a fan on either gender. Reminds me of the 70’s but in a good way. Would pair with a classic, like [name_u]Cassidy[/name_u] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f].
[name_u]Rylie[/name_u] -Again I prefer slightly on boys, and I prefer the [name_u]Riley[/name_u] spelling. I like it with a more elaborate middle, such as [name_u]Riley[/name_u] [name_f]Avalon[/name_f].
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f] -[name_m]Long[/name_m] time favorite of mine. Yes it’s popular but it’s not a name that gets spelled that many ways nor sounds similar to other names. [name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Savannah[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] -This could get shortened, but I don’t think it seems longer than many popular names. I would keep the middle simple, I like [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] [name_u]Blair[/name_u].

@justthinkin- Yes, I’ve been trying to edit it down for a while but I just keep adding lol

I love the combos [name_f]Briar[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] and [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] [name_u]Blair[/name_u]. Thanks for the detailed feedback and suggestions!

@dechen- I hadn’t thought of [name_f]Edith[/name_f], but it is quite nice as an alternate to [name_u]Eden[/name_u]! Thanks :slight_smile:

I like [name_f]Aria[/name_f], [name_f]Autumn[/name_f], [name_u]Blair[/name_u], [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] and [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]

[name_f]Aria[/name_f]: can’t shake the association with Pretty [name_m]Little[/name_m] Liars.
[name_f]Audrey[/name_f]: meh. It’s okay.
[name_f]Autumn[/name_f]: cute and underused these days.
[name_f]Avalon[/name_f]: also cute
[name_u]Blair[/name_u]: nice, but can’t shake association with Gossip Girl.
[name_f]Briar[/name_f]: unusual and sweet!
[name_u]Cassidy[/name_u]: nah, too 1990s
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]: cute!
[name_u]Eden[/name_u]: I actually think this name gets used by everyone, even non-religious people, these days. I used to dislike but it’s growing on me.
[name_f]Eowyn[/name_f]: [name_u]LOVE[/name_u]. Tolkien. Yes. This.
[name_m]Everley[/name_m]: this is a bit childish to my ears.
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]: not too long, I love it.
Kestrel: Very cool, love bird names.
[name_u]Rylie[/name_u]: not a fan.
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f]: too popular for sure
[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f]: not too long, as long as you’re comfortable with her acquiring a nickname from friends, like [name_f]Sera[/name_f]
[name_u]Sierra[/name_u]: not a fan, too early 2000s trendy

Here are my thoughts:

[name_f]Aria[/name_f] - I loooove this name. I’d use it myself if it wasn’t so popular.

[name_f]Audrey[/name_f] - It’s spunky and feels very casual.

[name_f]Autumn[/name_f] - [name_u]Love[/name_u] the imagery, but not as much the sound.

[name_f]Avalon[/name_f] - Very mystical, but maybe a bit much for a first name? I love it as a middle.

[name_u]Blair[/name_u] - Pretty, but feels lacking.

[name_f]Briar[/name_f] - On the fence with this one.

[name_u]Cassidy[/name_u] - Feels bright and friendly but not my style.

[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] - Feels too quaint for me but certainly a respectable name.

[name_u]Eden[/name_u]- I agree that it’s too religious.

[name_f]Eowyn[/name_f] - I actually LOOOVE [name_f]Eowyn[/name_f]. It’s one of my favorite middle name possibilities, though I’m not sure I’d ever be brave enough to use it. It’s so beautiful!!

[name_m]Everley[/name_m] - I prefer [name_u]Everly[/name_u], which is pretty. [name_m]Everley[/name_m] looks wrong to me.

[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]- Not a fan of this one, feels too religious.

Kestrel - Interesting, never heard it before.

[name_u]Rylie[/name_u] - I think it’s cute, though I’d prefer [name_u]Riley[/name_u].

[name_f]Savannah[/name_f]- I’m a fan of this name, I like the imagery and the sound is pretty. Savvy is a cute nickname.

[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] - I love this name! Although I do think it will kind of inevitably get shortened to [name_f]Sera[/name_f] because there’s no way every person will say the whole thing every time. It’s lovely though.

[name_u]Sierra[/name_u] - I adore this name. [name_u]Sierra[/name_u] makes me think of mountains and has such a pretty sound.

Favorites:
[name_f]Aria[/name_f], [name_f]Savannah[/name_f], [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f], and [name_u]Sierra[/name_u] for first names. [name_f]Autumn[/name_f], [name_f]Avalon[/name_f], and [name_f]Eowyn[/name_f] for middle names. (It really is refreshing to see [name_f]Eowyn[/name_f] mentioned on these forums!)

These are my favourites:

[name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_f]Autumn[/name_f]
[name_u]Blair[/name_u]
[name_f]Briar[/name_f]
[name_u]Cassidy[/name_u]
[name_u]Eden[/name_u]- not too religious at all
[name_m]Everley[/name_m]- I do love this name. Not so in love with the different spelling though. I prefer [name_u]Everly[/name_u].
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]- I love love love this name so much. Definitely not too long at all.
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f]- Popular? I’ve never even met a [name_f]Savannah[/name_f]. I dont think its popular at all!
[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f]- Not too long at all and its got lovely nn’s.

My favourites are [name_f]Audrey[/name_f], [name_f]Autumn[/name_f] and [name_f]Briar[/name_f].
