Sibling name for baby sister to Fiona and James

[missingmargarita]

We have a little girl on the way and we are struggling to come up with names! Looking for something that's not too popular, but very pretty, and preferably scottish, although not too worried about that! Help!!

Mairi
Morven
Kirsty
Flora

Iona and Isla are lovely, but might be a bit too popular at the moment for you.

i also like Morag.

And Helen/a.

Or Eilidh (if you are actually in Scotland, or don't mind a challenging spelling if you're not!)

Rosie

Eleanor?

Ailsa
Skye
Mirren
Eilidh

Catriona
Anna
Morag
Flora
Isla
Shona and Iona are both lovely names but a bit too rhyme-y with Fiona for my tastes.

I know siblings Fiona and James with a sister who is Claire.

Heather

Jean / Jeannie.

My favourite at the moment - Lorna.

Others:

Nairne
Tierney
Fallon
Greer
Rowan
Fern

Elspeth
Lilias/Lilian
Carys
Kirsten

Ailis/Ailish
Alannah
Catriona
Marsaili
Rhona
Fenella
Gilda
Isobel
Malvina
Rowena

Sorry - didn't mean to repeat Catriona, which had already been posted. But it's a nice name! Katrina is an alternative spelling.

Mairead
Jessie
Morna
Cara
Kirsty

Oh forgot

Ishbel

I trying to think about the Scottish equivalent of 'granny chic'. Perhaps other Mumsnetters can help? Many older women I've met here have very traditional names such as Janet, Margaret/Maggie, Elizabeth, Marion, Helen/Helena/Ellen, Johan, Alison, Aileen, Agnes (=Annis), Christina/Chrissie, also Mary/Mairi, Anne, Mary-Anne, Mary-Jane....

You get loads of versions of Elizabeth - for example, there will be Liz, Lizzy, Libby, Beth , Bethy, Betty, Eliza, Liza, Bunty aome people being known by more than one by different groups of friends. You also get a lot of Ina's short for all manner of names from Christina to Willemina to Philomena - in fact loads of male names converted to female such as Duncanina, Donaldina etc.

I have Aunts and older relatives who are:

Hetty
Alison
Evelyn
Ena (not sure what it's short for)
Rita (Margaret)
Bunty (Elizabeth)
Norma
A fair few Margarets
Mary
Lilian
Meggie
Patricia
Pamela
Renee (not sure what short for)
Rhona
Hazel

Greta
Morag
Noreen
Clara

Innes
Ailsa
Erin
Shona

I was going to say Grannies are Margaret and Ina in my experience!

Back in my family tree Christian / Christina comes up regularly.

Soon, Renee (pr. REE-nee not the French way) is short for Irene.

Bike, I've only ever heard Innes as a boy's name in Scotland. Have you heard it used for a girl?

Thegirl Ach so it is! Mental block!!

Think maybe Bike means Inez or Ineez which I have heard of for a girl.
