Unpopular alternative to Harlow?

General Name Discussion
1

Hello! This is my first post :smiley:
I am due in [name]December[/name], don’t know what I’m having yet & can’t wait to find out! I have the boy name covered with a top 2 that I’m 100% sure about. However, I absolutely can not think of a girl name that really hits me hard. (Our instinct is that we’re having a girl).
I [name]DO[/name] NOT want to use a popular name. I love the name [name]Harlow[/name] but I fear that it’s popularity is just going to keep rising. Can you think of a name I might like that compares? I also love [name]Scout[/name] but dad-to-be refuses because all he can think of is his aunts old dog. I like [name]Piper[/name] but we have a long, weird, P last name.
Other names we’re considering: [name]Sloane[/name], [name]Lake[/name], [name]Wren[/name]

Any suggestions would be awesome! It can be anything fun.

babyberry: I mentioned [name]Olive[/name] to the old man and he shook his head and chuckled…in a good way. He is going to let me use [name]Olive[/name] so that is THE name for my baby (if it’s a girl) yay!

jo: We [name]DO[/name] have very similar taste in names :smiley: My vote for you is [name]Piper[/name]…I am in love with that name but I just can’t do it with the last name my man has blessed me with, lol

11

I’ve been trying to push [name]Hartley[/name] as an alternative to [name]Harlow[/name] (and [name]Harley[/name], [name]Harper[/name], etc.) because I love the idea of a little girl running around with the nickname [name]Hart[/name]. Also, there is a very small chance of it making a sudden jump out of near obscurity (whereas [name]Harlow[/name] and [name]Harper[/name] are on the rise), and it eliminates the motorcycle connotations from [name]Harley[/name]. So far no takers . . .

[name]Olive[/name] [name]Hartley[/name]?

I thought of:

[name]Marlowe[/name]
[name]Paloma[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Helena[/name]
[name]Regan[/name]
[name]Johanna[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name]
[name]Ailsa[/name]
Endra
[name]Melody[/name]
[name]Adrianna[/name]
Rohelle
[name]Phoebe[/name]

I hope that helps!

Blessings,

[name]Bella[/name] <3
