Name for a girl that meets this criteria

128 replies

Ampstamp · 24/04/2019 14:22

I'm trying to decide on a name for a girl but am struggling. All I've come up with is some criteria for it meet, and would appreciate any suggestions that meet these.

  • Not in the top 200
  • Does not start with B, C, D, O, P or U
  • Does not end in ‘ia’ (a alone is ok)
  • Works together with a colour surname (White) so that it doesn’t sound like a description.

Thanks!

@girlsname I was being cheeky.... Isla.... Isla White??

girlsname · 25/04/2019 00:15

Isla? I don't think that's outside the top 200 😂

Nor are several mentioned here above- Harriet, Eden, Annabelle, Lois, Lyra to mention a few.

OP it might help to refer to table 6 on this link so you can scan through the names outside the top 200 www.ons.gov.uk/file?uri=/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/livebirths/datasets/babynamesenglandandwalesbabynamesstatisticsgirls/2017/2017girlsnames.xls

Fair enough OP. I'd suggest using a name that people have heard of, but that's not widely used, as opposed to something that's a bit out there. Like an Audrey or Helena.

If you like Sasha, what about Natasha?

Xanthe

Although it does mean yellow so you might not want that with your surname!
