Need a girls name to go with Archie...

Lainyneal30 · 05/07/2013 15:56

So after months of thinking and thinking the only girls name me & my DH agree on is Lola.I have loved this name a long time however it is becoming more and more popular I now know of 6 Lola's born in the last year! Trying to think of something else similar that still goes with Archie! At the moment I quite like Luna & India. I did like Eva/Evie but again think there are too many around now! Our surname is Williams and middle name is going to be Grace! Opinions?!?

Thea? Random but think it is a similar theme to names above.
I love Archie by the way.
I'm not keen on Lola but nothing wrong with it.
Lydia?
Freya?
I quite like Lyla and really like Orla.
Ottilie?
Callie?
Camilla -> milla
Skye?

Yeah I did think the same about Charlie and Lola another reason I wanted something slightly different. My OH isnt keen on Orla but he likes Lola, Luna & Lyla id quite like something different and not really heard of but not weird!

Tigglettchic · 05/07/2013 20:37

How about Annabelle?? I love those two together?

rockybalboa · 05/07/2013 20:35

I don't know of a single baby Lola. It is v pretty and I'd just stick with it tbh.

waterlego6064 · 05/07/2013 20:34

Also meant to say, I do like Lola, but 'Archie and Lola' is maybe a tiny bit too like 'Charlie and Lola', if I was being very picky.

waterlego6064 · 05/07/2013 20:32

Anything I know Archie and Eliza siblings too- but there is another sister named Matilda.

OP, what about Lois?

cowmop · 05/07/2013 20:21

I know a Kirsty and Archie. To be honest I think most names go.

chesticles · 05/07/2013 20:19

When I saw the thread I thought Cora, which is quite similar to Lola

AuntieStella · 05/07/2013 19:54

Josie or Edie?

BlackMogul · 05/07/2013 19:53

My daughters are Leala and Samara. Not many around and easy to spell

AnythingNotEverything · 05/07/2013 19:35

I know siblings who are Archie and Eliza.

Thanks for your comments I do LOVE Lola just find it so common now although I thought this about Archie at the time im yet to meet another one i know! I saw Luna written somewhere and thought it looked pretty but does .. " Archie & Luna" go?! I like a lot of the above names trying to avoid another A name incase I go on to have more I will then feel like they all need to be A's haha
