Im expecting at the moment and just wanted some thoughts on my girls name shortlist:

Leah
Thea
Scarlett
Alma
Grace
Ava

Are the last too a bit too popular?
Middle name would be Christina.

I like Leah and Ava, but the rest aren't my style. I really love Christina though.

Leah Christina sounds lovely. I don't like Alma, always reminds me of Alma Pudden in the Enid Blyton books!

Personally I’d avoid two names ending in an “ah” sound, so if you’re set on Christina I wouldn’t have Leah or Alma for example. But that’s just a personal preference, it’s rare to use both names together so it wouldn’t be a big deal.

Love Christina
Not overly keen on the first names. Leah Christina sounds nice though

Thea and Ava. Also love Christina and it becoming Chrissy.

Thanks all! Christina is my mums name hence picking it for a middle name.

Not keen on any of the first names, Grace and Scarlett are ok but don't like the others. I like Christina.

I really like all of them. We have a Thea and a Scarlett in the family, both aged two, so I would go for one of those. Thea is supposed to be very popular but she's the only one I know.

notactuallylolling · 13/06/2021 19:40

For those who didn’t like the names, I’m looking for something 2 syllables, simple but not very popular ….any suggestions

From your choices- Ava and Grace are very popular, and I think Thea becoming more so

Leah I personally don't like. Scarlett is ok

Alma Christina my favourite from your list

See above for my suggestions Smile

I love Ava and Grace.

MintyJulip · 13/06/2021 20:24

Scarlet Christina

YouLookSoCool · 13/06/2021 20:30

I like all of them except Alma (reminds me of Alma Baldwin) and Grace
