We need more girl names!

Myself and my partner, and in fact everyone around us thought we were having a boy and we have always had a 100% set in stone boys name. To everyone’s shock, we’re having a baby girl.

We have a few names that we both like: Eryn, Adelaide, Athena, Hallie and Everly. However, we’d like some more options.

We also have a list of names that we like for middle names: Guinevere, Margot, Sage, Amity, Monroe and Eleanora.

I’m gutted because I love Ottilie but he doesn’t like it at all. I find that I love lots of names, but he tends to veto the majority of them based on ‘he knows someone with that name’, ‘there’s a character called that in’ or just doesn’t like them.

We like quite unique/underused names as we both have unique first names and surnames and our boys name would also be quite unique.

I don’t think we will name her until she is born but time seems to be speeding ahead and we only have 11 weeks left. Please help!

Amity reminds me of horror films.
