We just can’t find a name we agree on 🤦‍♀️
our original name list:
Cass/Cassie
Juno
Nova
Maya
Remi
Kaia
Kali/Callie
Tess
Wren (ruled out as too popular)

We struggled with the name game while I was pregnant but were sort of half decided on thinking she’d be a Cass or a Kali but neither of them are settling well on her. OH LOVES Shea but only wants to spell it Che which is a hard no from me so back to the drawing board. I love Juno but he’s vetoing. We’ve been round and round in circles for what feels like forever.

Dear Lord, why provide OP with a laundry list of different names? Surely, that will just further muddy the water?

@LotsOfSmallThings has a list of lovely names. Why not combine them?
ie Cassandra Remi?
You can shorten to Cass as a nn.
Cassandra is classic and the shorter names on the list go nicely as 2nd names, or even two middle names:
Cassandra Juno Wren?

Good luck. 🩷

Cadi? (Pronounced caddy)

As in tea

LittleChicken11 · 25/11/2025 22:44

Nola, Connie, Cova, Romy, Sadie or Suzie would maybe fit your list.
Or Stella, Seren, Serafina to match your Prefs.

Congrats, she is beautiful and the right name will come. She does look like a Noa which some posters have mentioned too.

teaandtoastwouldbenice · 25/11/2025 22:30

Alternative could be Ada, Everly or Sadie.

shes a cutie congrats

teaandtoastwouldbenice · 25/11/2025 22:28

Tess or Cassie are great choices

Lara, there you go you can have my no 1 girls name pick because I didn't get to use it. It would be amazing to think there was a wee lassie out there with it.

@WarrenTofficier
I have a beautiful one year old Lara, it was the only name we loved.

Moonlightdust · 25/11/2025 22:14

Lottie is so cute and goes well with Orla (sibling)

I have a Darcy. I love Nova and Luna

wandawaves · 25/11/2025 22:00

Oh she's so beautiful!

I think she looks like a Maya. But I see you've now ruled it out. Eden and Ivy i think suit her too.

I think you need more than one syllable though with your surname.

Good luck.
