Baby names

Girls name to go with George and Peter

50 replies

ProfessorPickles · 17/03/2016 10:38

I've always struggled with girls names and can never seem to find one I love, where George and Peter came to me easily and I never changed my mind again.

Girls names I like are:
-Anna
-Rosie
-Matilda
-Emily

Emily is the winner so far, it used to feel like a plain name when I was younger but now it feels pretty for some reason.
Anna is a very close second.

Any other suggestions? Boys names seem to come so easily to me where I never have a doubt but girls names are a nightmare for me!

Emily is pretty but I prefer all of the other three. Matilda is my favourite by far. All nice names though and all go well with George and Peter. I don't think you can lose with any of them.

But if you want other ideas, then I also think George and Peter go well with:

Amy, Abigail, Alexandra, Bethany, Bryony, Claire, Chloe, Danielle, Daisy, Emma, Eleanor, Erin, Frances, Florence, Grace, Hannah, Harriet, Holly, Isabel, Imogen, Jessica, Joanna, Jennifer, Juliet, Katie, Katherine, Lily, Lydia, Lucy, Madeleine, Melissa, Miriam, Molly, Naomi, Natasha, Natalie, Olivia, Phoebe, Philippa, Rebecca, Rhiannon, Sophie, Sarah, Stephanie, Susannah, Tabitha, Victoria, Vanessa, Zoe

I like Louisa, and Ellen/Helen.

Really good suggestions thank you!

None are jumping out at me as the right one still but hopefully one will eventually Grin

Middle name would be Anne, unless I decide on Anna of course!

I quite like the sound of:
Emily Anne Dawson
Mary Anne Dawson

Not our surname but similar ish.

Emily Anne is just lovely (biased, as one is my niece and the other is me Grin)

Anna is a great name too. How about Marianne?

Elizabeth seems the obvious choice but Emily and Anna both go well as do the other names you like.

Meredith
Eloise
Carla

Also Julianna, Catherine or Stephanie

I love Mary Anne. Mary is so underused nowadays.

Go with Mary! She'll definitely be the only one in her class, it's easy to spell and goes beautifully with your boys names!

Lucy, Lucille, Sylvia, Jennifer, Sophia, Beatrice, Bethany, Sara, Holly, Sadie, Rosa, Rosalie, Helen, Ellen, Elena, Laura, Lauren, Laurel, Elizabeth, Catherine, Kate, Ruth, Michaela, Fiona could all work.

I like your list - nothing really standing out to me but nothing awful at all either.

Although I do think Mary is great! Or Maria/Marie possibly?

I feel the same Rua, I like them all and think they're nice but none are really standing out either!
