So good to see you are having very helpful replies Hmm Mumsnet at its finest!

Anyway, I have Ottilie Marie.
I love Monroe. As for middle name something feminine, rose, lilly etc.

We also had Savanna Raine.

I also love Sia 😊 I'm not much help I know.
One thing I've learnt is it's your baby, you call her whatever you like!

Florrie is Scottish Gaelic for Flora.

I loved it but DH didn’t.

Sooo pretty especially when said with a lilt.

I’m Scottish. DH half English so wanted “traditional” names.

Should I LTB for depriving me of a Florrie?

(Love my girls’ actual names though 😊)

Blossom is a cow's name imho. Some of your names are more masculine than feminine imo. For example River makes me think of River Phoenix (male) and Monroe makes me think of Marilyn and a not much to live up to if you're not a blonde bombshell.

I reckon you should google My Little Pony names. My suggestions based on your likes

Lilly, Carnation, Rose, Cinderella, Dorothy, Mary, Angeletta, Mariah, too name a few.

LucyFox · 04/01/2019 20:28

If DH likes Ayda, why not use that as middle name? Would he like Anya?

Anise or Amarise would be very unusual ...
Kalila means heap of love in Arabic & is very uncommon but not “out there”

What about a pretty but not “out there” name that’s less common? Tamara? Tamsin? Amelie? Tiffany? Angelica/Angelique? Marielle? Maybelle? Marianna? Cassia? Danica? Anneka? Tarina? Alyssa? Lisanne?

In fairness, in a school of 1200 students, one of the most unique names is Mary - only one in the whole school whereas there are lots of duplicates of more “unique” names!
