I'm booked in for my c section in 15 days time and we still haven't got a name for baby girl!

We're quite liking names that start with an A, but nothing feels like the one.

Please just throw all of your favourite A names my way and I'll make a list to show OH 😅

Thanks in advance!

I also quite like the simplicity of Aimee though much prefer this spelling

You could also have Antonia.

Abigail is gorgeous too. Alexandre / Alessandra. I've seen Alyx used as a first name too

I clear like A names though though gave none of my children one

17caterpillars1mouse · 18/07/2024 15:06

I love Adeline

I've met quite a few Alba's which is a bit quirky and I really like Astrid too

Although quite common I'm quite fond of Annabel (this spelling only) and Amelie is quite pretty. Arabel is nice but maybe too associated with farming.

I also love Aleydis after reading it in tye girl with the pearl earrings but that may be a bit out there for some.

My daughter has two Alaia's in her year group which is unexpected

JemOfAWoman · 18/07/2024 15:06

We have an Agatha (Aggie), she is formidable ❤️

Agatha (Aggie) like the baby in Nanny McPhee, (who was played by Maggie Smith as an old lady in the second film).

Not Amelia, OP. Mealy is a vile sound and the medical definition means 'absence of limbs.'
