Something like Imogen?

We really like this name, but it's the name of our son's good friend who we see often, so we've ruled it out. What else has a similar feel?

I agree with Hannah, Alice and Verity having the same sort of feel, although Imogen is in it's own "category" in my mind.

I love it though, it was on our list for DS and the only reason it wasn't for DD is that in the intervening period it was used by very close friends.

Other names we have considered - not exactly like Imogen, but in case you have similar taste are:
Louisa
Helena
Anna
Catherine
Grace

Sorry for any repeats

Beatrice
Miranda
Briony
Patience (I love the idea of calling a girl Patience but my DH would never go for it)
Ianthe if you're looking for another name starting with I? Or Isadora?

Verity, felicity...

I have an Imogen and think Jemima and Tabitha have a similar vibe. I also have a Meredith and Hermione which I love.

Jemima or Tabitha

RhiannonElward · 14/02/2015 17:39

Um, Imogen is quite unique. How about Jennifer, Eliza or Bethany?

amy83firsttimer · 14/02/2015 17:34

Jemima

Was going to call DD Alice until close friend used it for her DD. Will now go for Imogen instead as I think it has similar 'feel'.

skolastica · 14/02/2015 17:21

Imogen has a quiet dignity to it hasn't it? Also soft and squashy. Hannah has a quiet dignity, but isn't soft and squashy. Annabel works. Actually, Annabel is lovely. Elodie too. Maybe Julia.
