Callie?

[wintertwilight]

What do people think for a girl? I love it but unsure if people will mistake it for Kelly, which I don't like.

Other possibles are Winter, River, Anna or Ottilie. Middle name to be Rose.

Thanks :)

It's a very pretty name. As long as you're not bothered by the Disney Jr. cartoon character of the same name.

I love it but short for something.

I never even thought of Caroline! I'm putting that on my list for DC3! :)

I really like Callie. I like it more than your other choices

I like the name Callie. However the only callie I ever met was a bitch so that puts me off unfortunately.

Love it as a nn for Calliope. As long as you can pronounce it I suppose! My friend Calliope gets all manner of strange attempts in new situations.

Aw callie is lovely . I also love River

Originally loved Callie although after talking to a work colleague with a dd Callie she said that she is for ever correcting people from saying Kayleigh. Always spelt wrong. That really put me off. After years of my own name being spelt wrong and my brothers name being mispronounced I now like clear sounding names and simple spelling.

I would go with winter, pretty but different

Traditionally carrie is short for Catherine

Anna Rose.

Definitely.

Don't like it, it seems unfinished. Winter and River are hideous, especially silly with Rose as a middle name.

I loved the name Cally ever since I read the Follyfoot books back in the 70s. It was short for Cathleen.

I have two boys, I may have used it for my cat ...

Callie is OK, but not very substantial on its own. I prefer Calla or Calliope as a full version.

Anna and Ottilie are lovely. Personally wouldn't use River or Winter as first names, but both would be lovely mn options. Have to say, though, that they sound a bit OTT with Rose - like a sci-fi/fantasy character a la Dr Who's River Song.

I really like Callie but agree it sounds like it is short for something.

From the rest of your list I have no strong preference except I dislike Anna.

Not sure about River Rose as a combo though. It sounds like the name of a barge.

I know a 14 month old Callie, I don't think it's short for anything. It's a lovely name.

I really like Callista, Anna, Ottilie and River. Not keen on Winter at all, something about the 'wint' sound, probably totally irrational!
