Baby girl name for my 4th!

Hi, all! We are struggling with a name for my forth child, who will be a girl. Currently we have Avery (girl, age 7) and twins Rudy (boy) and Frankie (girl) age 4.

We are debating between:
Marlowe
Pippa
Mahli/Marley (not sure which spelling I prefer)
Clementine
Harper
Codie
Indie
Freja

Please let me know which ones you think sound the best with my other three!

Marley or Indie

VenusClapTrap · 06/09/2023 14:42

Pippa or Freja

youngestisapsycho · 06/09/2023 14:21

I like Pippa and Harper 🙂

FoodFann · 06/09/2023 14:20

India nn Indie

Comedycook · 06/09/2023 14:18

Pippa is my favourite but I think Harper goes best with your other dcs names

CruiseOver · 06/09/2023 14:16

Pippa

peaceinourtime · 06/09/2023 13:59

Freja is lovely and goes with your other children’s names.

Mumofgirls2017 · 04/09/2023 13:04

Indie and Marley best with your others but my favourite is Clementine.

MirandaBlu · 04/09/2023 03:57

I'd decide if you want another -ee ending or not.

If yes, I think Codie and Indie (any spellings of those) are too close to Rudy. I really like Marley (or Marlie or even Marli) - people keep saying the dog, but I never even remember that; it's a kids' film from decades ago and I've known enough human Marleys male and female that I'd think of long before the dog.

If no, then I like the balance of Clementine with Avery (since the twins are kind of a subset on their own). Plus she could be Clemmie if she ever feels left out and wants an -ee name.

xxalhxx · 04/09/2023 01:37

My BOY is called marley spelt "Marli" so team marley

continentallentil · 04/09/2023 01:15

Freya
Clementine
or Philippa nn Pippa (just because Pippa has some funny meanings in other languages so best not have it on the passport)

Clodie and Marlowe are low rent, Marley is mostly a boys name (how about Marnie?), Harper is a bit Hello Mag, Indie is Trying Too Hard to be Cool and Failing

putthehamsterbackinitscage · 03/09/2023 17:46

Indie or Marley to match the ending sound... either will be great with your existing DC

SleepingStandingUp · 03/09/2023 17:12

I think Harper fotd best with Avery and Rudy

LeDian · 03/09/2023 16:51

My DD is Kodie and I do not recommend, I love the name obviously but DR hates it, soooo many spelling variants (Codie,Cody,Codi,Codey, then all again with a K) and not are massively prominent or correct, DD jokes she's never had a Starbucks with her name spelt right (usually Cody/Kody) but it does annoy her. People also always miss hear it as Jodie/Kadie.

I think Indie is a gorgeous name.

cordelia16 · 03/09/2023 16:17

Marlowe
Pippa
Harper

neverenoughwine · 03/09/2023 15:41

I think Indie goes brilliantly with your other DC's , however, I really like Harper too with your list.

YesItsMeYesItsMe · 03/09/2023 14:21

Marlowe, Harper or Freja for me OP!

My 93(?) year old grandmother is called Avery, its the perfect name if you ask me! So cool.

Theoldwoman · 03/09/2023 14:19

Harper.

KirstenBlest · 03/09/2023 13:59

Marlowe - goes ok
Pippa - nice if short for Philippa
Mahli/Marley - Mahli will be misspelt a lot
Clementine - not a favourite, but not awful
Harper - goes OK
Codie - Cody would be better. Too close to Rudy?
Indie - Too close to Rudy?
Freja - will be misspelt a lot

uncomfortablydumb53 · 03/09/2023 13:54

Avery, Rudy, Frankie and Indie
Harper goes with your others too

Whatsthepoint1234 · 03/09/2023 13:53

Freja but spelt Freya unless you have heritage in a country that spells it with a j.

user1492757084 · 03/09/2023 13:03

Avery, Rudi, Frankie and ..
Pippa or Harper equal best
or Indie close second

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 03/09/2023 12:44

Avery, Rudy, Frankie and. Codie or Indie.

cherryassam · 03/09/2023 12:43

I think Indie goes best with your other DC’s names

Vintagecreamandcottagepie · 03/09/2023 12:42

Harper and Indie go best with the sibling ames, especially the girls' ones.
