NO Girls Name 2 weeks to go...

38 replies

sparklingsky · 05/04/2011 10:06

Two weeks to go and still no girls name. Have an Isabella. Don't want anything in the top 50 (made that mistake before). Would like something a bit unusual. Have a common traditional surname. Dh is wary of anything too 'hippy' or 'ethinic' but I am more open. I really like Priya/Pria. And yes I do like pretty pretty names.

Aargh!! Why is it sooo hard? Everyone here seems so good at listing lots of names. DH has a list of three and I'm not keen on any of them...

Please help!

Like Amalie, not sure on sylvie, reminds me of an old lady i know. You could elaborate on the names he likes and make your own unique name, like Helena=Heleena or Yelana. Thats what i did my dh liked kira shortend to kiki i sugested Kiahna shortened to kiki as its a bit more unusual.

I really like like Sylvie.

Agree with you Sparkingsky - not that keen on your dh's list.

Really hope you find a name you both like.
