So I found out today at 20 week scan it’s a GIRL! First baby but I have 4 brothers and DH has 2 (boys seem to run in family), skull and nub theory suggested boy and the wedding ring thing swung in circles. So I just assumed it was a boy stupidly. Anyway I’m over the moon of course but I have no idea whatsoever of names. I found girl names really hard. We had the boy name picked out so now I’m stuck.

I really love the name Everly Blush but realise it’s not MN approved so really want to hear your favourite names.

TIA

@ProperVexed yes, you must! I had all of my classical girl names planned and ready. I had one girl and 3 boys 🙄 my girl is Tiggy, you'll know what that is short for! I managed to slip Paris in as a middle name for #3 but Husband would not be persuaded to have it as a first!
