Hi lovelies,
Baby girl arrived yesterday and she is still nameless!
We had the name Mimi picked out for her but when she arrived my husband and I decided she didn’t suit that name.
We already have two girls called Milah
(mee-la) and Meia (mae-a)
Any M names are welcomed, thanks in advance for all the help :))

I really like the name ‘Mariposa’. It’s a little unusual but so are your other DD’s names (in a nice way). It means butterfly in Spanish in case you didn’t know.

i swear there is a kids film where a main character has this name?

It’s a Barbie film! Mariposa Barbie was amazing! Very contemporary to use a Barbie name too what with the film coming out.

Since I’m posting again, I thought I’d add that I like the name Meadow too. I got it from an NPC in Sims 2 haha. I’m not meaning to make light by suggesting such frivolous names. I just do really like them.

Yep, I remember now: it’s one of the barbie movies. Beautiful name regardless 👍

I also like Miranda, Monica, Minerva and Margot.

Let us know what you decide anyway and congratulations on your beautiful new addition to the family!

I think it needs to be an 'oh' sound after the M. Moxi.
