I am looking for a name that isn't super popular but isn't too unique either, but nothing is jumping out at me, and I want a name that I love.

Any help appreciated.

What do you like: old fashioned, nature related, American-ish???

I have a thread at the moment of Theodora and Dorathea which aren't too popular but aren't unknown. But they may not fit your criteria.

Amelie

(Just popped into my head, I think it's beautiful)

Good luck with impending arrival!

Sorry Dorothea/Theodora are not my style at all, I have discounted a lot of names as friends already have used them such as Amelie, Eva, LIly, Faye, (very nice but can't use), am looking for something cute but suitable for when older too, do like timeless names but want something quite trendy/cool but not too popular.

Trendy/cool but not popular is dofficult. The names you list are all super popular. Orhinf wrong with that though.

Based of the names you list what about: Mila, Lola, Ivy, Iris, Zara, Lottie, Ruby or Eliza?

PosyBoo · 24/07/2017 21:42

I always think Iris is a cute, timeless but trendy name (maybe I just think it's trendy though as I loved the goo goo dolls song!!)

Am drawn to names ending in a, I know they are popular these days, one is unusual....Viva, what do you think?

I dont love Viva. Reminds me of vivisection which is experimenting on animals.

Nina?

WhatKatyDidnt · 24/07/2017 21:48

Viva makes me think Las Vegas or scary degree interview.

Livia?

mummag · 24/07/2017 21:48

How would you pronounce Viva? Vee va? What about Nova? Not my cup of team

mummag · 24/07/2017 21:49
