I like short, sweet, solid names for girls. What others would you suggest? Feel free to go as “out there” (or “in there”) as you like!

Nice to see Jetta being suggested upthread. DH and I have agreed on Tess but had we not I would be advocating very hard for Jetta, I think it's a beautiful name.

Lark is great! Thanks, so many lovely suggestions again. Funnily enough I just asked about Clover on another thread... it was pretty much a resounding no, but I still quite like it. Fern is lovely too, really growing on me lately.

Thank you, I like lots of these! Gwen is a lovely feisty sounding one I hadn’t considered. Funnily enough both DC1 and 2’s names have been mentioned!

Keep ‘em coming please, I’d love to hear more I hadn’t thought (or maybe even heard) of.
