POLL! Vote on baby girl's name

DoubleL128 · July 15, 2024, 2:14pm

My husband doesn’t want me to share our girl name options with family and friends, but I NEED outside opinions! I can’t decide. We just keep adding more options. (Also open to additional recs that might fit our criteria/vibe.) I’m leaning towards very feminine with a simple nickname, and recently eliminated Blake and Reese from my list.

Criteria: I love a 3 syllable name with a nickname. Fits with brother Levi. Middle name will most likely be Daisy.

Genevieve (nn Gi? Viv?)
Matilda (nn Mati or Tilly)
Eloise (nn Elle or Lou)
Elliott (nn Elle)
Ottilie (nn Tilly)
Delilah (nn Dede?)

A lot of these are also names I love and had to eliminate because they’re already taken by family or my husband vetoed. Maybe I’ll re-suggest a few with more nickname options…

I just came across the nickname [name_f]Lettie[/name_f] yesterday LOVE IT! I actually did a reverse search for what it could be a nickname for – [name_f]Juliette[/name_f] didn’t come up, but it’s an all-time fav of mine (but my husband isn’t a fan )

Greyblue · July 15, 2024, 4:11pm

Love:

Delilah Daisy → sparky, sweet and stylish
Genevieve Daisy → elegant and lovely
Matilda Daisy → strong and pretty

For Matilda, I love Mati/Mattie and Tilly! (and Tilda too)

For Delilah, I do like Dede, but also Dell, Lila and Dee

For Genevieve, I like Viv, but would prefer Gigi to Gi - but I like Neve, Evie, Genie and Ginny too.

I enjoy the sweet elegance of Eloise and Elliot is charming and bright - though it doesn’t fit the ‘feminine’ vibe of your other choices, Ottilie is fun, playful and lovely too.

If I were to suggest some:

Leonie (Leo, Leni, Leelee)
Honora (Nora, Nori, Honey)
Elodie (Elle, Edie, Lola, Lolo)
Amelie (Millie, Mimi, Ami)
Annabel (Belle / Bel, Annie, Anna)
Emmeline (Emmy, Em, Milly)
Anneliese (Annie, Anna, Liese, Elise)
Clarissa (Clara, Clary, Lissy, Reese)

benton_s_mama · July 15, 2024, 4:47pm

Several of these are great and I was thinking I would have a hard time choosing until I got to [name_f]Delilah[/name_f]. [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] is absolutely precious!

lucy_halo1 · July 15, 2024, 6:53pm

With a brother [name_m]Levi[/name_m] and a middle name of [name_f]Daisy[/name_f], I like [name_f]Eloise[/name_f] the best. [name_f]Eloise[/name_f] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] is nice.

somemelodioussonnet · July 15, 2024, 8:03pm

I think you have good options here. But you mentioned suggestions, and lists are fun, so…

[name_f]Amelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Elianna[/name_f]
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Eloisa[/name_f]
[name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Jocelyn[/name_f]
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Louisa[/name_f]
[name_f]Luella[/name_f]
[name_f]Madeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]
[name_f]Priscilla[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]
[name_f]Susannah[/name_f]
[name_f]Vivienne[/name_f]

Taylor_Anne · July 15, 2024, 8:39pm

I love [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] nn Lila/ [name_f]Lyla[/name_f]. I think [name_m]Levi[/name_m] and [name_f]Lyla[/name_f] are a cute duo!!

ashthedreamer · July 16, 2024, 12:55am

Love Genevieve! I also love Levi & Genevieve together; I adore the repeated V’s that sort of tie them together. My favorite nn for Genevieve is Vivi, but I also like Evie/Eve, Neve, Ginny, and Gigi.

Eloise nn Lou is probably my second favorite (although Ella and Lola are my favorite nns for Eloise in general).

I also love Tilly but Matilda and Ottilie don’t do much for me unfortunately. I like the nn Lila for Delilah, but don’t really get the appeal, as a Christian, the Biblical Delilah isn’t someone I look up to. It does have a pretty sound though!

Good luck!

namer_gamer · July 16, 2024, 7:46pm

I voted for [name_f]Eloise[/name_f], and I love the nickname options!

Another suggestion would be [name_f]Geneva[/name_f]. It is very similar to [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f], but easier to spell and sounds better with middle name [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] imo. Good luck!

DoubleL128 · July 17, 2024, 3:51pm

[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] was the front runner for a while but the lack of nickname we love is what keeps it from being the winner. I worry that [name_f]Neve[/name_f] and [name_f]Evie[/name_f] sound too much like brother [name_m]Levi[/name_m]. I like [name_f]Ginny[/name_f] though! I love [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] too, but husband isn’t a fan

DoubleL128 · July 17, 2024, 3:53pm

His best friend at school is actually [name_f]Lila[/name_f], so he would probably love that too!

babymamallama · July 19, 2024, 3:49am

I love love love [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] but [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] is a touch too floral in my opinion. I would choose a different middle if you go with [name_f]Delilah[/name_f]! But maybe not. [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] is a type of [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f] I believe. Also a cute name with a cute nickname “Dolly”.

[name_f]Love[/name_f] your taste in names! I think [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] is super cute.

bellamarin · July 20, 2024, 3:06am

[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] is soooo beautiful. I would use [name_f]Evie[/name_f] as a nickname .
