She's little, always so happy. Has dark hair, but will probably get lighter. We nickname her Bean (when we didn't know her sex, but still sticks) and Lily (it was my mum's favourite flower and it kind of just stuck) so she often gets Lily Bean Grin but my husband really doesn't want Lily as her first name, so I completely respect that, so that won't be her name. She looks like a little fairy really! Any ideas on names that suit that description, lol!? I really want her to have a name, as people don't know what to call her!

I have always loved Wren. I wanted it for my DD but she was on the 98th percentile at birth there was nothing Wren-like about her.

Delphine is lovely.

I'm also thinking of names inspired by myths and legends because of you saying she's like a little fairy. So

Juno
Daphne (although I think Delphine prettier)
Penelope
Phoebe

Elvie, Faye, Lynette are all fairy names.

BretonStripe · 06/11/2016 19:13

Ah, congrats OP, she's a very cute baby! My 5yo ds just leaned over my shoulder and asked who it was. I explained and asked him what name he thinks suits her. He said she looks like an Isabella Smile

FlopIsMyHero · 06/11/2016 19:16

The name 'Susanna' means lily - how about that?
Beautiful baby OP! Flowers

Elvie?
Erin?
Cariad?
Karenza?
Melody?

TroysMammy · 06/11/2016 19:21

Elfine, I imagine pronounced El feen. A character from Cold Comfort Farm who is IIRC is sweet, girly and romantic.

CharlyWooplus2 · 06/11/2016 19:25

Elouisa - shortened to Lulu - or you could even sneak in Lily-Lou!

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 06/11/2016 19:35

Awwwwwwwwww. Couldn't you just eat her. Her little tongue is just ridiculously cute.
Some name suggestions.
Megan Lily
Jessica Lily
Amber Lily

Another thought would be Arwen, daughter of the king of the elves in Lord of The Rings. The Cottingley fairie hoaxers were called Elsie and Frances.

Someone else said Ophelia and I like that.

Tansy, Linnet, Flora, Meriel,

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 06/11/2016 20:19

Sabine Lily (Bean/y). 😄

Fairybella · 06/11/2016 20:21

Lucked · 06/11/2016 20:30

She looks like a Freya to me.

BratFarrarsPony · 06/11/2016 20:32

Roisin

giraffe13 · 06/11/2016 20:37

If you like it and it suits why not Lilly-Bean? I wanted to call my first born Tinkerbell but I didn't and I regretted it, now she said she will change it by deed poll to Tinkerbell when she's old enough! The flower names and fairy names are beautiful. Go with what melts your heart like your beautiful daughter x

Scrumptiousbears · 06/11/2016 20:39

She looks a little like my daughter. We called her Robyn.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 06/11/2016 20:45
