DP and I are seriously struggling naming new DD, other DCs have fairly uncommon names but not totally out there, and we are just completely stuck naming this baby! What would your suggestions of uncommon and fairly unique names be?

Agree about asking the siblings - give them a shortlist. Would make it special.

I agree with pp, you have 8 weeks to name iirc.
Don’t know why other posters are getting snippy Confused
Poor baby?
Get real!

Hi,
Congratulations! Don't feel pressured, the baby doesn't know or care. It's important to take the time to make sure the name you are giving her is just right.
Good luck!

Give us an idea what the other kids are called.

Themummy76 · 04/11/2017 22:29

Just pick the first name you thought of you liked and the one that comes to mind most often. Easy. Done. You don’t need to wait a month.

Give us a clue - are any of the names above in vaguely the right area?

Are there names you've considered?

Do you like any of those names suggested, OP?

junebirthdaygirl · 04/11/2017 20:19

I agree with Wheeler. I hate to hear of a baby without a name for 4 weeks. You dont need the perfect name. You just need a name. Name that child tonight!!
My suggestions are
Constance
Martha
Get your other children to name her. Do something!

Firstly congratulations.
Elena. Monet. Mabel. Felicity. Adele. Astrid. Aimee. Vivienne. Bronte. Keira. Cara. Rosa. Cora. Coralie. Rosalie. Linnet. Lydia. Marcie. Nadine. Bryony. Kaitlyn. As far as I'm aware none of those are in the top 100.
Although without knowing what your other kids names are. I could be repeating names you already have
