Six letter girls names

57 replies

movesyouveneverseen · 21/02/2019 16:14

We’ve somehow managed to give both our DC names with six letters, now DC3 is due and we want a name with six letters.

We are expecting a girl and so far our list consists of Sophia and Amelie. Although our DD1 is Everly which I am unsure works with Amelie; it sounds a bit of a mouthful!

Any suggestions?! I feel like I’m going in circles!

Hmm, not sure my Dcats would like another pet (DH definitely wouldn't) maybe I can rename one of the (male) cats. Grin

Maybe my DD will name her baby Astrid (in 15 or so years time).

What about Merida?

LaurenSarah22 · 21/02/2019 16:38

I'm going to say Lauren because it's my name or Millie because it's my LO name

Darcey would go nicely with Everly?

@banggoesthattheory I quite like Olivia but we have a very close relative called Oliver and so am put off using it. Thank you for your suggestions though.

Thank you ReliasBlu, it’s definitely not for me but I really appreciate the suggestion.

@tinty I don’t think the Everly and Elodie combo works for me. I’d end up getting confused in my soon to be tired state!!

@tinty could you get a pet and name it Astrid if you aren’t having any more?! Just a random suggestion but you’d get your Astrid Grin

Ok so Astrid is a No, I will keep bringing it up on these threads though.

How about Elodie? Pronounced L O D.

Run that by DH.

@skyejuly I’m not sold in Lilian but it’s made me think of Lillie? But again, Everly and Lillie, is it too much of a mouthful?!

@EduCated like @bablohoney I quite like Alicia. Thank you!

@erja are you having a baby soon? You could use it, if not could you get pregnant with a girl and use it? Grin

DP didn't like it, boo Sad So I couldn't use it. DD on the other hand loves it and says why didn't you call me Astrid instead of my dull boring name the lovely name DS8 choose for me.

@tinty I wasn’t sold but I just suggested it to DH and I got a firm no! I do like how unusual it is though. Thank you!

flowersaremyfave · 21/02/2019 16:26

Totally understand about you not wanting to use Hallie. I wouldn't either!

I don't think Sophia is popular though, I only know one. It's a beautiful name I'd use it

erja · 21/02/2019 16:26

@Tinty love it! And Ingrid.
