What would you call her?

Also, is the name your ‘if I was brave enough’ name? If not please tell me them both Grin

I’m hoping to find inspiration because we’ve come up with 3 names and none feel ‘right’.

Thank you Xmas Smile

On* not only

danascully96 · 31/12/2020 19:21

Ooh, Maria nn Mia is only my list too!! Anastasia is gorgeous as well, but I’m not Russian, so would seem odd on me Sad

danascully96 · 31/12/2020 19:20

Safe: Lily and Anna with nn Annie (love the musical, so no prob with people singing the songs). I’m also quite fond of Charlotte, Julia, and Laura, but the first two aren’t as classless as my top choices, while Laura is a tad dated.

Brave: Sabrina, Celine, Sylvia, Valerie (more dated, but pretty), and then Vivian (risks being snobby/mean sounding).

MRSG1986 · 31/12/2020 09:59

Our 3.5yrs old is called Ramona ☺️☺️

I just had a girl 8 weeks ago :)
Names we liked but didnt use were:
Anastasia nn Anya
Maria nn Mia
Raine
Camilla
Sabrina

I'm not afraid of using any name, it's just getting them past my Oh!! Hes quite open to a different name but not to my level ahaha. I really liked Marigold but I think that was a step to far for him Haha.

The name that got away for me was Luna! We loved it but our friends daughter has that name. Plus it's more common right now than we would like.
