Sister for Rory

34 replies

Expecting DD and have DS Rory. We have a Scottish surname.

Looking for a girls name that isn't too popular but isn't totally 'out there'.

Please send any suggestions as we are at a complete loss!

Thank you!

I know a Rory with a sister Molly.

@emmathedilemma are you in Scotland? Or Scottish?

Lots of Scottish people call their dd Sky/e. It’s not massively popular but not an out there name.

Op, I vote for Gigi.

My first thought was "Rose"
Rory and Rosie sounds cute but may not be everyone's cup of tea. Other names I like are:
Darcy
Alana
Poppy
Violet
Luna
Lucy
Ava
Charlotte
Hallie

Do you want something Scottish to go with your surname? I'm not sure anyone in Scotland actually calls their kids Skye!

Flora's nice, but Rory and Flora sound too similar. I like a PP's suggestion of Annie (perhaps Anna or Anne).

My first instinct was Megan. No idea why!

Morred · 04/06/2020 17:03

Margaret is one people don’t always think of as Scottish but was a Scottish queen. Meg is a good nickname if the full thing is too long.
