Hi

As the title suggests I'm 2 weeks away from my due date of my first child, a girl. Dad isn't involved and have a small network so I haven't really had many people to have normal discussions like names etc with.

I have a couple of suggestions but haven't got anything I can nail down yet and was wondering if people could help me with some please? I really like more modern, abit out there (though these are more common atm) names.

what is your surname?

  • Skylar
  • Autumn
  • Nova

Oh they’re lovely names!

I do like Nova, how about Aster or Stella?

I know someone who has a baby girl with the name Noa.

No name suggestions but reassuring words that it doesn’t matter.

I had a shortlist of three for each of mine and both of them ended up with new names a week later because the chosen ones didn’t seem right.

It’s good to try names out when they’re here and see how they feel.

LionessWithPride · 28/07/2024 18:15

Sorry should of mentioned. My top 3 at the moment are...

  • Autumn
  • Skylar
  • Nova

Very open to people's preferences on these 3 and also suggestions. Thanks to anyone in advance :)
