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

I like a lot of very unmumsnetty names for girls but they come from the girls whose names i was jealous of when I was a little girl! (i was born in the mid 80s)

So

Kylie
Kayleigh
Stacey

Roxanne is a fantastic name @Chocoholicmumma! I love it.

I think people may call it "brave" because of the song maybe? But it definitely wouldn't put me off.. it's fab!

I wonder why Roxanne is a ‘brave’ name? 🤔 I have a Roxanne (Roxie) and she literally rocks her name 💜

Brave name would be Orielle.....

Clementine, I love this name and had my sons been girls I would have loved to have called them this x

TheQueensGambit · 14/12/2020 21:45

Catherine Eleanor Surname

DH vetoed Catherine, annoyingly, as tbf, it may have looked as if he was naming his dd after someone and he didn't want that.

My, "if I was brave enough" name, (also my "if DH had no say whatsoever" name), would be Star.
