Names as beautiful as Lucy

174 replies

Ever since I was a little girl I have loved the name Lucy. It's not too long, has a bright youthful feel and is a classic. I've known for a while that when I became pregnant I wouldn't be able to use it because DH has a DD named Lucy, so the name is out of the question.

Can you recommend me some girls names that are just as beautiful?

I'm not keen on Elizabeth, Anna or Katherine as have been suggested to me by my mum.

I love names that end in an -ee sound but are classic and traditional stand-alone names rather than traditonally used as nicknames/diminutives (nothing wrong with these, but they feel modern rather than classic to me).

A few more:

Carly
Heidi

Always liked Lucy when I was a little girl, and I still like it now. I had a lovely friend called Lesley when I was small and I put it in the same category. Perhaps not currently fashionable, but could be due for renewed attention.

How about Emma too? Classic pretty name, also 4 letters, 2 syllables.
