I love blossom. Have always adored cherry but not brave enough to use. My kids have mainstream names and wish I’d been bolder x

I was going to say Monroe Belle before I saw you had said Monroe Bella! That's really lovely.
River Beau is definitely a boys name. I love Atlanta but wouldn't have been brave enough to use it.

Dolly makes me think of Dolly Parton, who is obviously amazing.

Monroe is very harsh sounding; Blossom is better and also more girly if that's what you are after.

Great colour - painted the play room in it

Get a kitten. Call it one of those names. Then give your baby a real name

Exactly. People need real names. Save the other stuff for pets and teddy bears

I know of a few girls called Bluebell and Scarlett.

What about Liberty, Verity?

Japanesejazz · 06/01/2019 23:50

My pony is called Dolly, she’s a proper nut job, I had some lovely ponies when I was a child called nimrod and mintoe

manicinsomniac · 06/01/2019 23:40

I teach/have taught both an Atlanta and a Tallulah (and that's in a VERY traditional/'posh' school).

Names I've come across that I'd say are unusual and may be the kind of thing you're looking for:
Vega-Vivienne
Karizma
Indianna
Tigerlilly
Nerilly-Jade
Summertime
Blue
Eriskay
Summer-Daisy
Amberley
Fantasy
Persephone
Delphi
Rosina
Averil

A little bit less unusual but certainly not everywhere:
Rhiannon
Juliana
Fenella
Angelica
Calista
Karenza
Octavia
Rosabelle

MeMumsMedicine · 06/01/2019 23:07

Don't forget you're just not naming a baby. You're giving a name to a child who will have to go through school with it and then use it as an adult.

Most of the names on this thread would be making me apply for a deed poll to change if it were mine. Why do you wan't to saddle your child with an 'unusual name'?

Reminds me of Kath & Kim - Chlamydia sounds nice, Myorcardial Infarction - sounds exotic.

sickmumma · 06/01/2019 23:01

Blossom Ivy was the name of my great aunt! I really like it!!

nocluenoidea · 06/01/2019 22:54

Your other daughter has quite a common name so why give your second child a weird one? Seems unfair

AuntieStella · 06/01/2019 22:38

Tallulah is a saint's name, and I think it's lovely

Hahaha hahaha. That made me really laugh. Hahaha.

greathat · 06/01/2019 22:26

Please don't call any child Tallulah, it's too cruel
