Floren?

[Tomkat79]

Overdue with DD and still not decided on a name.
She's been Lolly since 20 weeks and that will be hard to shake.
We originally liked Florence, but seems be gaining in popularity pretty fast so wondered about Floren?

[DitzyDonkey]

Sounds a bit odd...how about Flora or Fleur?

[evelynj]

I have a Florence-I was annoyed at it growing in popularity too but there's so many variations-one of which is Floren & you can still call her lolly!

Congrats btw :)

[Sundaedelight]

How about Florentina as a nod to Florence but still different?

[Lannypanny123]

I love lolly so different
I like Florence too but too popular for me think its almost made top 50
How about florrie?
I had that on my list if girls names but we settled with Dolly

[kelda]

Isn't it a boy's name?

[ShevelKnievel]

Isn't it a currency?

[mynameisnotmichaelcaine]

How about Dolores for Lolly?

[Bunbaker]

What about Florian?

[meditrina]

Floren, Florin and Florian are all traditionally boys names (especially on mainland Europe). Are you OK with that?

[SquirrelledAway]

How about Floella?

It's supposed to mean flourishing or blossoming.

[Poofus]

Lola for Lolly? Or Lolotte?

[mathanxiety]

Lorena
Laura
Lauren
Lara
Laila
Leilani
Louise or Louisa
Maybe even Olivia? I know one whose nn is Ollie...

[fruitpastille]

Laurel?

[tammytoby]

Florentina is beautiful!

[kalidasa]

Florina is pretty and unusual, but still sounds like obviously a girl's name. The Florina I know is Romanian, so it might be more common in Eastern Europe.

[Catflap1]

I work with a Florrin (male) and a Florentina both lovely names I think!

[Tomkat79]

lanny I love your choice of Dolly! How has that gone down with people? Not that it bloody matters, I just wondered. Think MIL will disown me if I register her Lolly as apparently she needs a 'proper' name!
I think Floren is suitable for either a boy or girl, more so girls these days.
Oh I don't know, can't really decide until we see her. She's being very fashionably late now!
Anyone know any suitable variations of the name little minx?!

[PestoSunnyissimos]

Name her Loretta, Lolly for short

[HannahLaRouge]

I have a friend called Laura,everyone calls her Lolly

[PestoSunnyissimos]

I think if you call her Floren, people will be forever mis~hearing it and thinking her name is Lauren.

[devoncreamtea]

Just go for Florence, it's not that popular is it? Gorgeous name. Floren is fine but i just think 'ss' after it. If I were you I'd go for either the name you love best regardless of popularity etc or something completely other that you love nearly as much.

[burgatroyd]

Florianne? Or Lorelei, lolly nn?

[Jemimapuddleduk]

Loelia (pronounced Lo- lia) with Lollygor short.

[Jemimapuddleduk]

Oops with Lolly for short

[PsammeadPaintedTheLion]

I'd think it was a boys' name.
