Our entire family, ourselves included, were convinced baby no 1 would be a boy so we didn’t have any girls names picked out. We’ve since had our gender scan to be told we’ve got a little girl on the way🩷
We can’t agree on any girl names, I love Delilah and my husband loves Gwendolyn but we both feel a bit meh about the others suggestions. Delaney, Demelza and Audrey are contenders as well, thought neither of us LOVE them. Her middle name will be Rose.
Please give me all your suggestions so we can find a name we both love!🩷🩷

I was watching Who do You Think You are? the other day and the person had two generations of women called Thirza. It’s a biblical name and was quite popular in 19th century rural England. I had never heard it before and rather liked it.

My other favourite is Zelda. I like a z name.

Lovely unusual names here. Love Audrey. But Audrey Rose is a horror film although not really watched a lot.

Celeste, Dorothy or Dorothea, Theodora. Aurelia, Audra , annaliese

@ChocoChocoLatte , OP could use it if she likes. It's only like calling a girl Adrian or Justin or something. Pointing out that it's a boy's name is hardly being the name police.

Edited for typo.

@Emanwenym my grandmother was Wynifred. So with Wyn not Win also.

ChocoChocoLatte · 13/01/2025 19:53

Apologies Op - the name police are in the building, please do take note of @Emanwenym 's expertise if considering my suggestion.

I doubt it, @ChocoChocoLatte . The -wyn ending is masculine, -wen feminine. The two names aren't related.

ChocoChocoLatte · 13/01/2025 19:31

@Emanwenym used for both male and female I believe. Both Arwen and Arwyn.

Emanwenym · 13/01/2025 19:06

@ChocoChocoLatte , Arwyn.

Ooh, Gwendolyn is a lovely one - a little Gwen / Gwennie would be gorgeous! Delaney is also very nice and she can be Della / Laney if she likes.
