Hi all, hoping for some inspiration! Surname starts with an M, and I really like alliterative names. First baby, so nothing to match with etc.

Ideally I’d like something that’s not too popular, which would give them a good chance of being the only one in the class….

Open to all suggestions! Thanks

Manon for a girl. Such a beautiful name.

Absolutely love the name Manon.
I also love my auntie's name Milada, but it's a very Czech name, so a bit niche.
I also like Milou, Minna, Mirabella, Malaika, Marion
