I really like the name phoebe, but it's a tad too popular. Would like something with less of a chance of there being several she knows... Any suggestions for similar ish names?

I know these aren't much like Phoebe but its quite a 'flowy' name in my mind (I know what I mean, its not a bad thing honest :o) and these just fit in with it in my little world haha

I'm not sure (except for Bea!) quite why these are similar to Phoebe, but to my mind they are.

Agree that Daphne would be great - such a lovely name and Greek origins like Phoebe

Other Greek/Roman sounding names are
Zoe
Chloe (as above)
Eleri
Althea
Lyra

[FiveExclamations]

Prudence, Philomena, Prunella, Ava, Genivieve (sp?), Constance, Fenella, Ursula, Dora all fall into the same compartment of my brain.

Cordelia?

[LittlePeasMummy1]

I've got a Phoebe...is it really that popular? Anyway, it means 'light' in Greek, as does Lucinda (Latin) which is another fave of mine.

[ovumahead]

LittlePeas have you encountered many other phoebes?

[PattyPenguin]

Just to say that Eleri (one suggestion above) is Welsh.

Eleni is a Greek girl's name, though.
