Hi, struggling to settle on a name for DD, so on here looking for suggestions. I like Aria but bit worried is too Game of Thrones. I love Iris, Serena, Isla and Claudia but can't use them Sad Would love a really pretty name like these and not too popularSmile

The character in Game of Thrones is called Arya which should be pronounced Arr-yah whereas Aria is pronounced Arr-ee-aa like the pretty little liars character. I like the name Aurora which is similar and would have a nickname of Rory if it was my little girl. :)

it's more that i know a lot of people so i associate names with them so a less common name means im less likely to know someone with that nameSmile

I like Aria too, it reminds of one of the girls in Pretty Little Liars. Ida and Ada are both lovely too, but perhaps a little too popular for you? Ivy is also a good name.

Shame you cant use Iris it's gorgeous.

I really dislike Aria. I know a few all have been named after GoT so that's the association I have despite not liking GoT and having a clue who Aria is

A few suggestions...

Ivy
Ida
Ianthe
