I’m looking for 3 letter girls names to go with my DS 3 letter name.

Only name that is vetoed is Ava

Any ideas??

Some really lovely names there - i esp. like Mia, Ivy and Eva. Thanks for your suggestions!

Reason I’m goung for a short name is I’ve got a loooong surname so needed something short - obviously I could go for 4/5 letter names but I quite liked the symmetry of 2 lots of 3 letters, if they doesn’t make me sound too odd!!

I am surprised nobody has suggested Ann, which is classically lovely.

Not to my taste but also Nan? Kay?

I agree that it is terribly limiting. I also wouldn't like my name as a younger sibling to be dependent on that of an elder sibling. Maybe choose a name you love without restriction and then shorten a nickname or use initials if you want a three-letter bit.

From a TV programme the other night:

Dot

But only if your child is likely to be small and slight - I don't think Dot would work on a large person!
