Help needed with pretty but unusual girl's name

[strawberrychewits]

Hello, 7 weeks to go and starting to panic that she will remain unnamed. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Our criteria
Really pretty
Can nickname (mine can't be and would've loved to be nicknamed)
Our surname can be pronounced 2 different ways and it is annoying to correct so need a name easy to pronounce so Dd won't have to correct both names
Short surname so longer would balance it nicely
Surname begins with a D
Middle name will be Marie
Really uncommon would be great
English names preferred but I am half Danish so might be nice to include

We currently like...
Everly - worried it is too uncommon and have had lemon face reactions
Esme - worried about pronunciation me or may
Betsy - already a nickname
Coralie - worried it is too French and we have no connection to France
Clementine - dh loves but I don't like the nickname Clemmy
Elsie - family don't like it
Elodie - dh says it's just melody without the m

Would love to have something with a cute nickname like...
Emmie
Izzy
Addie
Ezzy

Really want to avoid the nickname Ellie

I hope you can help and thanks in advance

Etta
Genevieve/Genny
Camilla/ Cami
Penelope/Penny

Virginia - Ginny

Danneka, nn Danny

Emmy?

Thanks for all of your hard work everyone. Lots of new ones to think about. May definitely be a case of seeing what suits her when she is born!

Our top list after all this has changed alot. Everly is out I think as are Elodie, Elsie due to the Ellie nickname.
Also dh not a fan of the Adelaide/lynns etc

Our list is now
Betsy on it's own
Bethany (Betsy)
Scarlet (Etty)
Etta

Totally different to my first list. Who knew this would be so hard! Not certain that I have found the one yet though

Oh also my Dad suggested Avril.
Not certain about a cute nickname for it though

Dorothy - Dotty
Abigail - Abby

Ok not your criteria but girls names I love, also pronounceable in Scandinavian languages:

Maud
Julia
Henrietta -Hetty
Olivia - Ollie
Doris

Lisbeth or Lillibet?

Delphine -Delphi

Primrose with nn Posy

Hum watching with interest as also having trouble finding the right girls name! Now that Abby has been mentioned can I jump in and ask in case anyone can think of any nickname for Abigail that isnt Abby or Gail? id like to go for Abigail but dont want it to get shortened to these? Any ideas anyone?

Bee, Bebe, Iggy? No idea if those are better

ooo thankyou. Bee is cute!

Matila, nickname Minty. I know one and she is awesome

Or Alicia, nickname 'Icy'... I saw this in a book once (can't remember which one, however )

Emmeline, nickname Emmy/ Emmie/ Millie

That is what we have chosen to call our daughter, also due in 7 weeks time!!

Adelaide, Emmeline, Camelia, Primrose, Rosalie, Rosalyn, Francesca, Frances, Annabelle?

Addison or Adrienne to get Addie (but personally love Adeline)? Betsina for Betsy (only known one and she was German) otherwise I can only think Elizabeth but if she'll be known by nn then hopefully not a problem with the friend

Loving this thread really helping us.

We have an isabelle nn izzy/belles
eliza who my parents call lizzylou

we like Matilda nn tilly
phoebe nn phoebs
betty/betsy
nancy
grace nn gracie
Charlotte nn lottie

love the elsa, elsie, elspeth but too similar to our eliza.

Gabrielle/a
Francesca

You have lots of lovely names and suggestions on this thread so I'm going to add a couple for you.

I know a Jennifer Temperance. It's a great name. Temperance as a first name would, I think go nicely with Marie. You could nickname as Tempy.

Jennifer as well is a pretty name, nicknames Jen, Jenny, Wren.

Many people don't know the name but the few I do associate it with Bones (Temperance Brennan). Weirdly the family are fans of the show and it was the inspiration for using Temperance. But they also didn't click until after Jennifer Temperance arrived, that they also have a daughter called Emily. As in the actress who plays TB.

Isabella- izzy or bella?

Sorry just seen your post saying you have an Isabel xx

Beatrice - Bea?

Bea is such a pretty nickname.
