Second girl naming crisis!

Hi everyone,

Pregnant with DC2 and at this rate, if she’s a girl, she will be nameless 😫. DC1 is called Lilah, and literally the only other name we considered for her was Lyra. I still love Lyra but we can’t have two children called Lilah and Lyra can we?! It’s corny and I can imagine will evolve into a confusing nightmare.

We want a name that she won’t spend the rest of her life correcting, but also is relatively rare or unique.

We have a list of potentials but I still can’t see myself naming my own child any of these-

Frances (Frankie)
Caitlin (Cait)
Sappho (?)
Leonora (Leo)
Cassia (Cassie / Cass)

Anyone got any opinions on these / suggestions? If I’m honest I don’t love any of them! 😩

Thanks! Xx

I don't like Cassia with Lilah because they both end in 'ah'

I think Frankie is the best out of your list Smile

Definitely don't like Lyra with Lilah.
