Hi, I'm 28 weeks pregnant and just found out we're having a girl and would really like a name that is strong and feisty - she never stops moving and trying to kick her way out of my tummy and has already caused a few dramas :)

I would like a first and middle name that are quite feisty...nothing too traditional or too popular.

TIA

Freya gets refered to as a girly name on here but if you read th mythology Freya was one kick ass feminist hero. She was beautiful, strong, principled and fair but she stood for no rubbish from her brothers/other Gods at all. The Vikings only had 2 major goddesses, Frigg was the goddess of hearth and home, Freya got all the good stuff, love, sex, fertility, and pick of the dead heroes to live in her hall (the Viking afterlife). A feisty one with a different but not odd name has to be a Freya every time!

I know Elizabeth is quite traditional but we call our Elizabeth, Lizzie and she is very, very feisty.

In fact, the 2 other Lizzies we know are just the same. Smile

I always think of Kate as quite a feisty girls' name.

It means wolf, and it's wild and feisty.

I third Harriet nn Hattie. I have one and feisty is certainly one way of describing her!

Is it just me who is a bit Hmm at what people think are feisty names? I mean...Sarah come on.

I didn't suggest Sarah but I do think it's quite a strong name.

Really? my judgement is obviously clouded by only knowing Sarahs who are wishy washy.

My Matilda is feisty. My Scarlett isn't. I think Stella is a strong feisty name

I think that's the thing. It really depends with whom you associate the name.

I am with you on Sarah IslaValargeone!

I have an ex GF called Harriet and she was a very feisty lady! But then my perception of the name just comes from her?

Maybe what ever you want to call her and she turns out to be as fiesty as you expect someone will be saying in a few years I was at school with a 'misfitmum jr' and she was fab and really feisty!

I bet some of my team from work say they know a cowboylover and shes is real fussy cow! Smile
