Looking for some new inspiration! I love the cadence of 2 syllable names, especially with our last name. And, I figure a lot of us here could use a little list refresh!
So, drop your favorite 2 syllable girl names that:
• End in a long -e sound
• End with -n
• End with -a
[name_m]Feel[/name_m] free to make combos or share firsts only! And, if you really love a 2 syllable name that has a different ending than listed above, feel free to share those as well.
ending with a long e sound:
lily
lucy
rosie
janie
junie
maddie
hattie
amy

ending with n:
