Help needed to narrow down girls names

40 replies

Septesun · 15/02/2026 09:01

hello,
First Baby due in September. Have the boys name sorted but have the longest list of girls names 🫠 and can’t narrow it down. I’m sure it’ll change lots before due date. However wanted to get a feel for your favourite.

ps this is the narrowed down version

thank you x

@timoteigirl ,You could say that about any middle name.

It depends on whether or not the first name is used frequently or not.
If the surname is a common one, it might be used often. The other Siennas will probably be Sienna Rose/May/Grace.

I voted for Sienna, but don't really like any of them. I particularly dislike Harper. They're all a bit trendy.

Genuine question so why comment? Just to have some sort of vitriol? I don’t see the thought process….i ask which is you fav to choose from…your response I don’t like any of them. I’m sure I would dislike your taste because I’m guessing you go for dull run of the mill names but I wouldn’t comment because I realise our tastes are so different

Sienna Autumn is an air freshener or paint colour.

but how often do you need to say both names? Should not be an issue. Unless surname relates to this theme...

Some of these are very trendy such as Darcie. Does it matter? Does baby's birthday link with the season name?

Well yes, because the baby is due in September, as you’ll know if you read the OP.

Love Darcie (but prefer Darcey)
Love Harper
Love Autumn

Autumn is a beautiful name.

I voted for Autumn, but I also love Summer.

NamingNoNames · 15/02/2026 10:00

I don't like any of them.
Harper - too Beckham
Sienna - popular now but will be dated. Also a bit long
Summer - nice idea but too seasonal. Sums?
Darcie - dated already + multiple spellings
Autumn- what would it get shortened to. Aut? Tum?
Aria - nothingy. Air.

Autumn or Sienna are my favourites from your list.
