Simple, short and slightly unusual girls names needed

Girl Names
1

Hi everyone,

I posted on here a little while back and you were so helpful, I feel like you’ll definitely be able to help again!

We’re due baby number 2, a little girl, in August and so far no joy with names. We have a little boy named Joss. We like the names, Renée (or Renae?), Noa (absolutely love this but it doesn’t go with our surname) and Rory. But none of them feel right and I just feel like we haven’t found it yet!

Can you suggest any names similar to Renée, Noa, Rory?

We generally like shorter names, no longer than 2 syllables and with a soft but not girly feel - hence the unisex names in there.

Any suggestions so welcome!

Thank you so much

I adore your son’s name! I’ll second the previous suggestions of [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] and Neve–those were the first two ideas that came to mind for me! I love that they both share the soft-yet-distinctive type of sound that [name_u]Joss[/name_u] has. [name_f]My[/name_f] other favorites for a sister for [name_u]Joss[/name_u] from the previous suggestions: [name_u]Romy[/name_u], [name_u]Clem[/name_u], [name_f]Flora[/name_f], [name_u]Tali[/name_u], [name_u]Rue[/name_u], [name_f]Bea[/name_f], [name_f]Nell[/name_f], [name_f]Fern[/name_f], and [name_u]Caro[/name_u]! I’ll add:

[name_u]Arlo[/name_u]

[name_u]Romy[/name_u] came to mind immediately! [name_u]Joss[/name_u] and [name_u]Romy[/name_u] would be adorable!

Thank you so much for all of your suggestions! I absolutely love [name_u]Romy[/name_u], but my sister’s little boy is called [name_u]Remy[/name_u] so sadly that’s a no go :sweat:
