Any suggestions for short, strong, punchy girls' names? I want something that is timeless, strong and short. I probably don't want an "ee" sound at the end as that sounds very girly to my ears. I would like it to be four letters long.

My current list is:
Anya
Tessa (5 letters! I really want four)
Nina
Rose

I like the following but probably would not use them as I don't feel they are timeless:
Lola
Iris
Juno

What do people think of my list and do you have other suggestions?

TIA

Would have to say that Anna is timeless for me but not Anya, which has been a popular variant in recent years. Agree too that anything other than standard spelling is not classic. Joan would be a classic strong name. Lots of other good suggestions too - I like Ruth, all the Cara /Tara names.

Thanks all

I think we are down to Nina, Ruth or Tess.

I love all three, I'm not much help Smile, I think Nina actually gets my vote. Nina and Tess both floated around when we were naming dd3. We went for something else, but I've always really liked Nina.
