Our baby girl is still nameless...

Hello! Had a surprise baby girl who is still nameless because we were convinced (haha) she was a boy.

Please can you send me lists of names? I really appreciate any help! I don't like typically traditional names, I want something unusual ideally.

Names I love that don't suit / fit:

Elkie
Oriana
Solene
Leni

Love but too popular (or vetoed by DH):

Luna
Nova
Noa

Thanks!

What about Saga or Sanna if you like scandi names. They won't be mispronounced in the West Country.

In my opinion, the hard K sound in Elkie that you like is typical German. Name like Ilka for a German girl. Your names also seem to have the letters e, l and n.

If you want the ene ending, then I suggest names such as Sereba, Salena, Selena, Zelina

Is Valentina too long?

If you like German names then Hanne is an option. Katja / Katya. Micaela. Claudia

I also like the name Minka which is Polish for little Mina. Or what about Lenka?
Kira
Erika
Petra
Ulrika
Helga
