The coolest little girls names you've heard

[AprilS]

Going on from the boy thread. I'm 14 weeks so don't know what I'm having yet but I have the feeling its a girl. Only problem is we have a boys list a mile long but only some ok girls names.

I love Teddy, Tyger, Wolf, Fox, Dexter etc for boys but can't seem to find any names like this for girls. Any ideas?

Blake
Mackenzie
Mallory
Tansy
Dulcie
Nancy
Trinity
Liberty

I wasn't allowed ANY of these. DP is sooooooooo mean.

Wow, I don't know, there are so many girl's names I love. I don't think all the ones I love could be termed 'cool' though. Hmmm, 'cool' names:

'classy faux original middle class cool':
Astrid, Arwen, Arya, Bronte, Camilla, Dora, Etta, Giselle, Hebe, Iris, Ingrid, Inga, Juliette, Jessamy, Jerica, Lyra, Livia, Mila, Nia, Nyah, Octavia, Rivkah, Saskia, Sadie, Vashti, Verity, Xanthe.

'modern, American style cool':
Avery, Addison, Aubrey, Amberley, Brynn, Briley, Casey, Cassidy, Camryn, Dakota, Emery, Eden, Fallon, Genesis, Harper, Hadley, Kennedy, Madison, Mackenzie, McKinley, Piper, Sutton, Tarryn, Zillah

'alternative cool':
Cherry, Enya, Elfie, Gypsy, Jupiter, Kiki, Keltie, Misty, Mika, Ocean, Phoenix, Raine, Romy, Storm, Star, Zia

'other culture cool'
Alejandra, Celyn, Caoimhe, Efa, Fernanda, Giovanna, Lana, Nesta, Petrova, Rhiannyd, Sorcha, Zuzanna.

Ooh nice to see some names we are considering for dd2 on here. Olive / Liv being top of the list!

Will keep an eye on thos thread for more inspiration.

Darcy
Dylan (yes for a girl)
Sloane
Harper

I loved Dylan for a girl.

I know an Azalea, a Tiger, an Ocean and an Autumn, all of which I think ar pretty cool. I knew a few girls with names usually used for boys or gender neutral names (a Ryan, a Kynnedy and a Quinn) but don't think they're cool and don't like them. I also know a Sapphire, which I think is cool.

Lark
Alix
Romy
Xenia
Bryher
Aviva
Oona
Fleur
Xara
Steren
Nola
Gia
Hera
Io
Mattea
Opal
Sunny
Vivia
Xanthe
Zoia

Ooh, my DD is Kitty. Well made up that it's cool :)

I knew a girl called Flo and one called Reggie (short for Regina). They were pretty cool.

Please no one call their kid Viper. Doesn't that mean snake??

I love the name Harper, shame now it just makes everyone think of the Beckhams

manicinsomniac - I love your list, esp the 'classy faux original middle class cool' (not that i'd categorise myself or my family as being anywhere remotely like this description!)

one of the coolest little girls I've come across with a name to match was called Roxanne.

I also think Maud or Connie could be pretty cool (in a
'classy faux original middle class cool' kind of way)

Pixie
Scout
Lottie
Sherbet
Daphne
Cleo
Clemmie
Buttercup

Not saying I'd use all of these of course, just suggesting

"Classy faux original middle class cool" wtf

Scout is brilliant

Teddy could be short for Theodora.

it's good to see that Alix is cool - my dd (13) has just decided that she wants to be called this - her first name is Alexandra, but she's been known by her middle name so far.

I really like Polly, Nancy, Iris, Hebe and Hero. But actually what we think is cool, the children themselves don't - my dds all think that Izzy is a really cool name.

Thats the thing its what we're used to isn't it. I want to make sure its a name we love not just something because we're trying to be cool or different. Its just those are the names we prefer if it was a boy so it makes sense we'd like those types of names with a girl.

So many good ones. Thanks folks. Will have to see what the OH thinks when he gets home. I love the name Hero too. I met a surfer from Korea when I lived in Newquay and always thought it was a fascinating name.

Apparently my name is 'classy faux original middle class cool'

I wanted to call dd Birdie but DP was having none of it. He wanted to call her Hunter.

I also like Cherry, Astride and Luna.

Astrid not astride!!

I used to know an Ophelia. We used to call her Ophelia Bott

Ember.

But I love Wren and Starling too.

Ooh I know an Ember. Its a very cool name

Darla

I love the name Noa for a girl- just so pretty. Wasn't allowed to use it though.

I met a little girl called Judith recently, shortened to Jude. She was very cool.

But glad to see my actual DD's name is thought of as cool, ha!

I know a very elderly lady called Diamond which I think is a fab name if you have the balls to pull it off. She does
