Please help us with our baby girl's name.

Girl Names

[name]Hi[/name] everyone. My husband and I are expecting a baby girl in [name]September[/name] and are having a hard time finding a name we both love. Here’s the list we have so far, please give me your opinions:

[name]Lucy[/name] - (our favourite at the moment, but I don’t have that ‘this is the name for her’ feeling.)

[name]Lily[/name] - we both like the name.

[name]Ivy[/name] - I love it but my husband isn’t too keen.

[name]Emily[/name] - I’m worried that it’s too popular.

[name]Ava[/name] - Also, worried it’s too popular.

[name]Chloe[/name] - Our last name starts with a K and I think it may be too kk sounding.

[name]Amelia[/name] - I love this name however our last name is Karnaker (pronounced karn-a-ker) and I’m not sure it goes with it.

I’d also like any suggestions for new names. We tend to like names that end in ‘y’ or ‘ie’.

Thank you!

[name]Hi[/name] [name]Claire[/name]! :slight_smile:

[name]Lucy[/name]: I think [name]Lucy[/name] is absolutely darling, but if you don’t think it’s “the name,” that’s all that matters.

[name]Lily[/name]: I like [name]Lily[/name], too. It’s become really popular in the US, but I don’t know how popular it is where you are.

[name]Ivy[/name]: I think [name]Ivy[/name] is great. It’s been growing on me lately…

[name]Emily[/name]: [name]Emily[/name] is #3 in the US, after having spent a lifetime at number one.

[name]Ava[/name]: [name]Ava[/name] is pandemic in the US, too. I think it’s at #5 now.

[name]Chloe[/name]: I don’t think the double K sound is too much (I love alliteration), but [name]Chloe[/name] is really popular here, too. (It just entered the top 10!)

[name]Amelia[/name]: I think [name]Amelia[/name] is really pretty, and I do like it with your last name.

[name]Audrey[/name] Karnacker
[name]Bryony[/name] Karnacker
[name]Cecily[/name] Karnacker
[name]Daphne[/name] Karnacker
[name]Daisy[/name] Karnacker
[name]Emmeline[/name] Karnacker (instead of [name]Emily[/name])
[name]Elodie[/name] Karnacker
[name]Felicity[/name] Karnacker
[name]Isla[/name] Karnacker (another I name your husband may like…)
[name]Lila[/name] Karnacker (another [name]Lily[/name] option)
[name]Phoebe[/name] Karnacker
[name]Rosalie[/name] Karnacker
[name]Ruby[/name] Karnacker
[name]Sadie[/name] Karnacker
[name]Zoe[/name] Karnacker

Good luck! :slight_smile:

Some very pretty names! Congratulations on your pregnancy.

Being a teacher myself, you have chosen the most popular names at the moment and there will a be a couple in the class. There is a reason for that and it’s because they are such cute and classic names.

I know a family with a baby [name]Lucy[/name]. They also have a [name]Georgia[/name] and [name]Elise[/name].
[name]Lily[/name] is very pretty but I prefer [name]Lila[/name] (Lye - la)
[name]Emily[/name] is the most popular i’d say but still a classic. I love [name]Amelie[/name] as a fresher choice.
[name]Ava[/name] is gorgeous. I know twis [name]Ava[/name] and [name]Tessa[/name].
[name]Chloe[/name] is a little dated now I think. It was trendy back in the 90’s with [name]Madison[/name] and [name]Taylor[/name].

Other possibilities are [name]Daisy[/name], [name]Poppy[/name], [name]Sophie[/name], [name]Gracie[/name], [name]Olivia[/name], [name]Ruby[/name], [name]Ellie[/name] and [name]Edie[/name]

I like the name lucy and amelia doesn’t sound bad with your last name.
Some names that I like are:
[name]Norah[/name]
[name]Lacey[/name]
[name]Sophie[/name]
[name]Angeline[/name]
[name]Caroline[/name]
[name]Lena[/name] (lee-na)
[name]Gretta[/name]
[name]Leighton[/name]
[name]Meredith[/name]
[name]Alice[/name]
I hope you can decide on a name! Congratulations!

[name]Lucy[/name] - one of my faves.

[name]Lily[/name] - we both like the name. I love it so much, but it’s getting really popular. What state do you live in? In some states, it wouldn’t be as popular yet.

[name]Ivy[/name] - I love it but my husband isn’t too keen. Oh, that’s too bad.

[name]Emily[/name] - I’m worried that it’s too popular. It’s number one or number two I think. You could name her [name]Amelie[/name].

[name]Ava[/name] - Also, worried it’s too popular. It is, but you could name her [name]Avalon[/name] or [name]Evelyn[/name] or [name]Eva[/name]. But I think [name]Eva[/name] sounds like Evil unless it’s pronounced like [name]Ava[/name]. Then [name]Eva[/name] becomes too popular.

[name]Chloe[/name] - The K-K sounds don’t bother me unless your last name is two syllables. Then [name]Chloe[/name] K---- sounds like a comic book character. Oh, I see below that your last name is three syllables. Well, I would stay away from [name]Chloe[/name] because it is so popular. Maybe you would like [name]Daphne[/name], [name]Zoe[/name], [name]Margaret[/name] nn [name]Maisy[/name], or [name]Matilda[/name] nn [name]Tillie[/name].

[name]Amelia[/name] - I love this name however our last name is Karnaker (pronounced karn-a-ker) and I’m not sure it goes with it. I think [name]Amelia[/name] Karnaker sounds lovely. Is [name]Amelia[/name] too popular? I don’t know. I don’t think it’s as popular as some of your other choices.

Other ideas:
[name]Audrey[/name]
[name]Alexandra[/name] nn [name]Zandie[/name]
[name]Elizabeth[/name] nn [name]Lizzie[/name]
[name]Camden[/name] nn [name]Cammie[/name]
[name]Camille[/name] nn [name]Cammie[/name], [name]Milly[/name]
[name]Cecily[/name] nn Cessie
[name]Mary[/name] nn [name]Polly[/name]
[name]Anastasia[/name] nn [name]Tansy[/name] or just [name]Tansy[/name] on its own.
[name]Tatiana[/name] nn [name]Tati[/name]
[name]Vivian[/name] nn [name]Vivi[/name]
[name]Georgia[/name] nn [name]Gigi[/name], [name]Georgie[/name]
[name]Winnifred[/name] nn [name]Winnie[/name]
[name]Edith[/name] nn [name]Edie[/name]
[name]Eleni[/name], [name]Elaine[/name], Leilanie (I don’t know how to spell this - it’s Hawaiian) nn [name]Lainie[/name], [name]Laney[/name]
[name]Thandie[/name] - I like this a lot!
[name]Josephine[/name] nn [name]Josie[/name]
[name]Jacqueline[/name] nn [name]Jackie[/name]
[name]Harriet[/name] nn [name]Hattie[/name]
[name]Tamsin[/name] - yeah, doesn’t end in -y, but so cute!

[name]Zandie[/name] is my favorite of the week. She could also be a [name]Zandra[/name] when she gets older. I would definitely put this name on my fave list. Also [name]Xandie[/name] and [name]Xandra[/name], but I don’t like those as much. [name]Tansy[/name] and [name]Thandie[/name] are amazing, too!

I love the name [name]Ivy[/name]. We are having a girl in [name]September[/name] & my husband also isn’t keen on the name! Good luck deciding!

I love the names [name]Ivy[/name] and [name]Amelie[/name]/[name]Amalie[/name]. Of the suggestions above, I think [name]Thandie[/name], [name]Lila[/name], [name]Poppy[/name], [name]Daisy[/name], [name]Zoe[/name], and [name]Tessa[/name] sound great with your last name without being overly common or popular. Other names that were high on my own list which might work for you are [name]Eden[/name], [name]Avery[/name], [name]Averil[/name], [name]Adele[/name], [name]Tali[/name]/[name]Talia[/name], and [name]Emery[/name]. Good luck!

[name]Lucy[/name], [name]Ivy[/name] & [name]Lily[/name] are my favorites from your list. Beautiful names and not over the top in popularity
