Harris and?

We already have an almost 4 year old DS called Harris. We’re Scottish.. I got lots of negative comments about his name on here before we chose it but it’s one of the top names in Scotland now and is the name of a Scottish island (in case anyone doesn’t know).

I’m 37 weeks with baby number 2. We don’t know what we’re having yet and have a few possible boy options (mainly because they were on our list last time) but really nothing for a girl! I’d like if it tied in with the Scottish theme, doesn’t have to, but not the obvious other island names ideally! Thanks for any suggestions 👏🏼

We have an Iona and I love her name. So pretty and timeless. Isla is pretty but v common now. Skye is lovely but I know a sheepdog called that and can't unsee it. Alba also really pretty but Charlotte off Geordie Shore has called her baby that so it might become really popular? I love the name Agnes too but think it's very love or hate!

I always loved Eilish or Kirsten for a girl but my OH vetoed both

I’ve suggested Eilish but he’s not keen, I really like it

Alyssa is also a nice name. Perfect for a child.

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 26/04/2023 18:18

Ailsa is one of my favourite girls names.

Marsali and Mairead were faves too - my inner teuchter is unleashed 😂

I have a daughter called Brodie. There's a Brodie castle up north somewhere.

Cameron is nice with Harris. I know lots of boys called Harris, never linked it to arse, weirdly enough.

I wonder if anyone has actually had a Senga in the last 60 years? I'd be gobsmacked to meet one.

There was a Senga on Pointless this evening.

I love the name Morag.
