One of my favourite celebrity name combos is [name_u]Scout[/name_u] [name_f]Margery[/name_f]. I love the way they combined a short, spunky, modern girls name with a (what some would perceive) outdated name to make it sound fresh and fun as a combo.
I’ve long been looking for a first name for [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] to honour my late grandmother. Can anyone help me with some suggestions for a spunky name to go with [name_f]Shirley[/name_f]?
Would love any thoughts you have on my current shortlist too:
I love these names! [name_u]Eden[/name_u] is one of my favorites, but I think [name_u]Arden[/name_u] or [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] would go better with [name_f]Shirley[/name_f]. [name_u]Piper[/name_u] is the most spunky name I know, so I think it also definitely works with [name_f]Shirley[/name_f]!
[name_u]Scout[/name_u] [name_f]Margery[/name_f] is super cute! I like [name_u]Piper[/name_u] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] Hm the more I added to this list the weirder it got lol, but I do think of these names as spunky and a bit out there like [name_u]Scout[/name_u]. The names you listed like [name_u]Eden[/name_u], [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] and [name_u]Wren[/name_u] have a nice elegant sound and would do well on a spunky girl. I like [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] and [name_u]Wren[/name_u] especially. I also came up with some middle names like [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] to play around with combos.
Thanks @cactusgram, I love [name_u]Harper[/name_u] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] and [name_f]Clover[/name_f] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f]!
Lots of other great names in there, but the ones with a -y or -ie ending sound too repetitive with the -ley at the end of [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] (i.e. [name_f]Liberty[/name_f], [name_f]Libby[/name_f], [name_f]Trixie[/name_f]/[name_f]Moxie[/name_f]/[name_f]Roxie[/name_f], [name_f]Busy[/name_f], [name_f]Birdie[/name_f], [name_f]Hattie[/name_f], [name_f]Zadie[/name_f], [name_u]Harley[/name_u], [name_f]Maisie[/name_f], [name_f]Ottilie[/name_f], [name_u]Emery[/name_u], [name_u]Finley[/name_u], [name_f]Susie[/name_f], [name_f]Jeanie[/name_f]/[name_f]Genie[/name_f]/[name_f]Junie[/name_f], [name_u]Avery[/name_u], [name_u]Rory[/name_u]).
Thanks @madrigal. I love [name_f]Luna[/name_f] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f], [name_f]Juno[/name_f] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f], [name_u]River[/name_u] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] and [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f].
[name_u]Piper[/name_u], [name_u]Eden[/name_u], [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] and [name_u]Wren[/name_u] are my favourites! I haven’t liked [name_u]Piper[/name_u] in the past but as I see it more often it’s been growing on me. I’ve always like [name_u]Eden[/name_u] and [name_u]Wren[/name_u] and [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] sounds lovely with [name_f]Shirley[/name_f].
@nooshi - Yes! Thank you for reminding me of my love for the name [name_u]Fifer[/name_u]. [name_u]Fifer[/name_u] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] is wonderful. I also like [name_u]Gardner[/name_u] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f], [name_u]Ever[/name_u] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] and [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] from your list.
Thanks @~teenberry~! My favourite from your list is [name_f]Kyra[/name_f] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f], although it reminds me of [name_f]Kaia[/name_f] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] which I think I love even more than [name_f]Kyra[/name_f].
I love the idea you have for her name! My top 2 would be [name_u]Piper[/name_u] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] OR [name_u]Teagan[/name_u] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f]. I do know though that there is a couple different ways that people spell [name_u]Teagan[/name_u] suck as Teagen or [name_u]Tegan[/name_u]. However, I know someone named that and she spells it [name_u]Teagan[/name_u]! Good luck finding a name and have a beautiful day <3
Thanks @kpearl8. I like [name_f]Harlow[/name_f] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f] and [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] [name_f]Shirley[/name_f]. [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] is great!
