Any suggestions? Think Dylan, James, Aaron, etc for a little girl.

The most obvious are Charlie and Jamie but I'm not so keen on those.

I love American "surname for first names" especially unisex ones, already used Parker and Carter.

I quite like Jesse tbh. I don't see it as a girl's name at all.

BendydickCuminsnatch · 05/09/2016 18:49

Think Max for a girl is pretty great too.

YourNewspaperIsShit · 05/09/2016 18:53

Thanks Monkey neither do I, in the US it's quite common as well and pretty masculine but everytime I introduce him people say "oh she's lovely" Blush

I was at college with a Bob! (Short for Robin). Androgynous/masculine names are great on girls, more power to you!

OP it's my DDs middle name, I loved Alex for a girl but didn't think Alex Adrian wouldn't have sounded quite right. And because I'm not very girly I thought people would probably be expecting me to give her a boys name, she actually has a very girly name!

I loved Morgan as its my DH middle name and I wanted to call my DD. Got such a bad reception that it really put me off.

Someone was debating Noah or Noa (female spelling) the other day and I've absolutely fallen in love with it......so much so that I think if I were to ever have another girl it would be Noa. Grin

We know a girl called Evan. Never asked but it might be short for Evangeline or something.

I love Max for a girl ever since seeing something on tv with a girl called Max. I am intrigued what your sons name is now! Is it something like Shelley/Sandy/Kelly?

Soubriquet · 05/09/2016 19:54

Could it be Dark Angel?

Jessica Alba played a transgenic called Max

Or you got 2 broke girls with Kat Dennings playing a girl called Max

Love masculine names for girls.

We also loved Stevie as well as many mentioned above. Also Spencer.
