Help me find another H!!!!!!

So we have a few DC already.... baby due VERY soon!!
All begin with a H (didn't actually plan this) but can't break the cycle now!

I had a name for a boy that I absolutely loved but we've ended up having another little girl and for the life of me I'm struggling to find a H name that I love??

Any H names would be appreciated everyone because currently she's just been called baby H!!! Xx

Listen- If Henry, Hetty and Harry can have a sibling called James, then I also think you can go off piste.

H names that can’t be shortened

hazel
hero
honor
hebe

Unfortunately:

Haze, Ro, He…you can shorten anything.

Has anyone suggested Hecate?

Luredbyapomegranate · 19/09/2022 10:14

I like Hattie but do think it has to be short for Harriet (or Henrietta) as it’s a bit of a little girl name.

You could spell it Harriette French style - or just introduce her as Harriet nn Hattie - it’s a very common name so your friend shouldn’t mind.

Hadley?

I also like Harriet and Hannah

bluechameleon · 19/09/2022 09:42

My favourite H name is Harriet, but I also like Hannah, Helena, Helen, Henrietta, Hester.

AliBaliBears · 19/09/2022 09:25

Heather, Hazel or Hannah would be my picks.

Or for something more out there - Honeysuckle! (there's an actress with that name)

But honestly, forget about the initial, just choose the name you like best for that individual child.

BruceAndNosh · 19/09/2022 09:04

Anything can be shortened.
I know a Hannah who gets called H

I like Hester. Uncommon but not unknown

Oooh love Hester

MaChienEstUnDick · 19/09/2022 09:21

Honor
Hero
Helena
Harriet nn Hattie

But I actually think Harlow is unisex!

MiseryWIthAStent · 19/09/2022 09:21

I have a Halia :) but it's certainly unique. I get lots of comments on how lovely her name is but I used to have an elderly neighbour who when she asked what her name was said 'I don't like that, it's awful' 😅😅😅 so it's very much a love or hate name.
