Hello,

This is my list of baby girl names. I am not British, so I know some of these names will look unusual for most people, but I would like to know if you like the sound and what a girl with this names remind you of! The girl will be of African descent.
I added my favourite names combinations too, but you can just comment on the name if you like.

Thank you so much! And thanks for those that made a comment on my previous list of names!

Amabette Belle

Akiko Alaska

Amaluna Lily

Akiko is lovely. Not sure on Alaska though.

If the combos are fixed, then Amaluna Lily. 👍

Akiko is also fine but another person who doesn't think Alaska is a good choice ( unless you have very strong links with the area perhaps)

'Akiko Lily or Akiko Belle is classy and really lovely'

I second this. Akiko is lovely and easy to pronounce and spell. Really not keen on Alaska. Would make her sound a bit like a dessert imo.

Akiko is gorgeous i like it with Alaska too

MikeUniformMike · 24/10/2020 11:53

Amabette Belle - the bette and Belle are too similar. Amabette sounds like 'am a bet'

Akiko Alaska - sounds like a pedigree dog's name.

Amaluna Lily - not if your surname starts with Tic

Amaluna Belle and Amabette Lily are both lovely Smile

kittykat35 · 24/10/2020 09:38

Amaluna Lily....beautiful 🙌

Merename · 24/10/2020 09:36

Akiko is my favourite, really nice, and agree not sure about the Alaska part.

Akiko Alaska Sounds like a porn star...
Akiko is a pretty name but not with Alaska after it

pilates · 24/10/2020 09:20

Amaluna Lily is the only one I like

MercyBodle · 24/10/2020 09:19

I really like Akiko. What about Akiko Luna?

Firebird83 · 24/10/2020 09:14

Amaluna

Whatthebloodyell · 24/10/2020 08:48

I don’t really like any of the combinations.

Is Amabette pronounced ‘amabet or amabetty’ ?

babynamelover · 24/10/2020 08:38

I'll go against the grain I love Alaska as a first name. Im a big John Green fan and loved the book "looking for Alaska."

Oneandabean · 24/10/2020 08:19

I like Akiko but i think it only works if the child is Japanese. Otherwise I only like belle

Lobsterquadrille2 · 24/10/2020 07:59

I really like the sound of Akiko, but not keen on Alaska. If I could switch them around, I'd go for Akiko Lily.

DoTheMaccaroni · 24/10/2020 07:58

I think Akiko reminds me of a cool, fun and confident child 🥰

DoTheMaccaroni · 24/10/2020 07:57

I ADORE Akiko Alaska! 😍😍😍

Milkshake7489 · 24/10/2020 07:44

I love all three, they are beautiful!

Amabette Belle is my favourite, but it's a close call Smile

thetangleteaser · 24/10/2020 07:37

Akiko Belle would be my preference, Kiki for short!

LizzieSiddal · 24/10/2020 07:16

I like all your first names, Akiko is my favourite.
Like others have said, Akiko Belle is lovely.

LolaSmiles · 24/10/2020 07:15

I love Akiko, Belle and Lily, but don't like Alaska

whatsbinhappnin · 24/10/2020 07:10

Akiko Belle is great!
