So we have two girl names we like. I love boys names on girls and counterbalancing it with something very feminine. [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] is a grandmother’s name so if you don’t like it, please just say you’re not a fan…no harsh comments about it. Im also interested to see if there are any other suggestions of feminine names to go with [name_u]Frankie[/name_u]. So far Im thinking vowel names sound better?
[name_u]Finley[/name_u] [name_f]Kate[/name_f]
or
[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]
Sibling is [name_m]Mack[/name_m] [name_u]Owen[/name_u]. Also a family name. We like short, vintage names! Also I just heard that [name_u]Drew[/name_u] Barrymore named her daughter [name_u]Frankie[/name_u]… :-?
I prefer [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] to [name_u]Finley[/name_u] for a girl; it’s spunky and full of character! To me, [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] isn’t a ‘boy’ name since I knew a girl called [name_f]Francesca[/name_f] who went by [name_u]Frankie[/name_u].
Here are some combinations I like (I agree with the vowel thing!)
Out of the two I prefer [name_u]Finley[/name_u]. I really like [name_m]Mack[/name_m] [name_u]Owen[/name_u].
suggestions, [name_m]Mack[/name_m] and -
[name_u]Arley[/name_u]
[name_u]Ashby[/name_u]
[name_u]Ellis[/name_u]
[name_u]Embry[/name_u]
[name_u]Emlyn[/name_u]
[name_u]Loren[/name_u]
[name_f]Mabry[/name_f] (one I just discovered and loving)
[name_u]Quinn[/name_u]
I like both, but I think I prefer [name_u]Frankie[/name_u]. It seems spunky and full of life. I don’t like the double 'e’s back to back in [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f], though. [name_m]How[/name_m] about:
[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f]
[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Lisette[/name_f]
[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f]
[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Jezebel[/name_f]
[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Katherine[/name_f]
[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Belle[/name_f]
[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_u]Valentine[/name_u]
[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Sylvana[/name_f]
[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f]
[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Eulalie[/name_f]
Since [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] has special significance, I think you should choose this name because it would have more meaning for you. However, I don’t like the repetitive “ee” sounds of the [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] combo very much. I prefer a shorter mn beginning with a consonant with [name_u]Frankie[/name_u]. Here are some suggestions.
[name_u]Frankie[/name_u] is very cute, esp. as a nn for [name_f]Francesca[/name_f], Francoise, or [name_f]Frances[/name_f]. I detest [name_u]Finley[/name_u], though…makes me think of Uncle Fester, [name_f]Wednesday[/name_f] & Pugsley from The Addams Family (little [name_u]Finley[/name_u] would fit right in!).
I actually love [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] on a girl and although I’d only use it as a nickname for something like [name_f]Frances[/name_f] or [name_f]Francesca[/name_f], it is still quite edgy and cool and I think it can stand alone. However, don’t be surprised if people assume [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] is a boy - it’s top 100 for boy’s in the UK. I think [name_u]Finley[/name_u] is even more likely to be confused with a boy so I would definitely avoid that. I don’t get why it’s always the Irish boy’s names like [name_u]Finley[/name_u], [name_u]Rowan[/name_u], [name_u]Rory[/name_u] amongst others that are being used on girls?!
Neither of those are girl’s names. If these are the only options, [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] is definitely best, but please consider putting a legitimate name like [name_f]Francesca[/name_f] or [name_f]Frances[/name_f] or [name_f]Francine[/name_f] on the birth certificate.
I’m not a fan of either for girls, but I would choose [name_u]Finley[/name_u] [name_f]Kate[/name_f], mostly because I love [name_f]Kate[/name_f]. I would pair your two middle names together - [name_f]Kate[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f].
I like [name_u]Frankie[/name_u], but personally I would use it as a nickname. I like boys’ names on girls as well and would maybe even go as far to name her [name_m]Frank[/name_m] and call her [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] as a nickname. [name_m]Reason[/name_m] being that [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] sounds young to me and I’d want something less cutesy once they are older. [name_u]Finley[/name_u] is cute too, but [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] is more unique so it gets my vote.
I think [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] is very sweet. I went to school with a girl named [name_u]Frankie[/name_u]. I adore [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]. [name_f]Mae[/name_f] was my grandma’s mn, so it seems vintage to me :).
I like [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] better , but it’s not really a full name on its own to me. I’d prefer it as a nickname for [name_f]Frances[/name_f] or [name_f]Francesca[/name_f].
Another vote for [name_u]Frankie[/name_u]; I’m not a fan of all the -ley names–there are so many of them around now that they’re starting to blur together for me. [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] is sweet. I agree something like [name_f]Frances[/name_f] might be nice as an official name just so she has options as she grows up. [name_u]Frankie[/name_u] has such a strong, specific vibe that I can imagine that it will either really fit perfectly, or really not.
