And that's not Pauline btw!

After a chat with DH last night we've created a very short shortlist:

Juno
Asha
Indi

Middle name will be Raven.
Surname starts with H, one syllable.

We're looking for something interesting with at least 2 syllables...

Any other ideas people? Smile

My fav there is Indi, if I was having a girl I wanted to call her India - or Indi for short think it's really pretty. I do think India Raven flows better than Indi Raven though x

justhayley · 07/12/2011 14:18

Oh & my friend just called her baby Harlow Luna your welcome to steal that lol

LaTristesse · 08/12/2011 11:23

Thanks so much everyone! Luna was on our longlist but we discounted it for the Luna-tic/cy angle! And I did like Bibi but DH didn't.
Many of the above suggestions seem quite ordinary to me, anyone got anything weirder?!

Morticia?

SirCliffRichardSucksEggsInHell · 08/12/2011 11:29

Now Morticia Raven has a lovely ring to it! Gwan, you know you want to! Grin

FoxyRevenger · 08/12/2011 12:05

Just go with Quirk Grin

tummytickler · 08/12/2011 12:06

I think Juno is quite ordinary and 'of the moment'
Juniper is a nice alternative, I think a bit quirkier, and you could have Juno as a nn.
I like Asha, not keen on Indi though

How about

Isis/Iris
Zuleika
Morag
Alma
Thisbe
Thistle/Nettle
Isadora
Sandra Grin

I reckon Sandra is pretty quirky nowadays!

GhosteditorOfChristmasPast · 08/12/2011 12:11

I love India with nn Indy! Also on my longlist is Adithi which is Hindi for 'boundless one' - has a few nn potential too. DH is sadly not convinced. I used to work with an Adithi and she was awesome Grin

Imps7 · 08/12/2011 13:15

I like Clover, but don't think it goes so well with Raven (plus it may not be weird enough Xmas Grin

Zillah?
Astrid?
Ingrid?

Like Juniper too, with Juno as a nickname.

Snapespeare · 08/12/2011 13:38

Idris Raven
Verity Raven
Clementine Raven
Violet Raven
Amelia Raven
Storm Raven
Helena Raven (not that out there, but Helena Bonham Carter is bat-shit insane in a great way!)
Persephone Raven
Cordelia Raven

scarlettlips · 08/12/2011 14:25

Ohhh your so brave!

I wanted Indy but DH said no, he wanted Bibi..i said no, haha! Love Indi but i'd have India on bc.

DELHI · 08/12/2011 14:46

justhayley Harlow Luna sounds like hallelujah Grin.
Love Fenchurch!! Grin The rest of these names are a bit meh for me - too contrived and trying-to-be-different
