Hi all,

So my partner and I have these names as our top 5, but are struggling to pick one. In my heart I don’t think we can use Maggie because of Thatcher connotations but I do like it a lot. Does anyone have any thoughts or ideas of anything with a similar vibe?

Love Marnie

Id go Callie but spell it Calleigh, like the character in CSI Miami, and it looks less cat-name likez

I like Callie best.

Paddy1234 · 23/03/2019 07:42

Callie is my absolute favourite

Martha and Marnie are my favourite -

I know a lovely Calie but it seems less of a name in its oen right more or a shortening...
Hazel is ok but not as good as the others.....

I love Hazel and Martha.
How about Minna?

I love Hazel - it was a serious contender for my DD. From your list I also really like Marnie.

Love Marnie.
Marnie is classic, timeless and cool.
I don't like Maggie. Reminds me of 'The Simpsons' baby and Thatcher.

I like Marnie. How about Malorie?
