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

I can't believe the number of times that Gwendoline has been mentioned. I think it's an absolutely awful name. It probably doesn't help that's it's the MIL's name though...!

One of my close friends loves the name Thumbelina for a girl.

I hope she has a boy.

Although I love lots of the names on this thread, especially the ones like Artemis and Calliope. I wouldn't be brave enough though. I even find DPS name choice beautiful but not one for a kid bought up in our part of the UK. It's great in Wales or France though, where people can actually say it properly.

Maria.

bevelino · 04/08/2019 19:21

Evelyn rather than Everly.

Sleepyhead11 · 04/08/2019 19:16

Harriet or Imogen.

Dp says Manon.
