I don't like ANY girls names...

Seriously! :(

We are expecting a girl.

There's about 20 boys names that I would use though!

I quite like Ivy and Scarlett but don't go with our surname so any names similar?

I like Billie or Stevie for girls

So you've never met a woman whose name you like?

You hate all women's names?

Really?

It's a bit different when it comes to actually naming a living though. When I was pregnant with DS I couldn't think of any girls names I'd be happy naming my child. There were plenty of names that I liked (and I'd liked them a couple of years previously with DD) but not enough to commit to naming them that.

I agree that knowing what boys names you like will help with narrowing down options for girls names

I can't think of anyone I know whose name I would use for my own child :-s they're all a bit Sarah/Jane/Rachel-esque. Weird question!

DerelictMyBalls · 26/10/2016 18:45

Bijoux???

HairyHands - OP didn't say she hated anything.

OP, I feel the same: I could give you a hundred brilliant boys' names but really struggle with girls'. Tell us your boys' list and we will try and find you a feminine version.
