Another girls name.

Am struggling to find something that isn't too long, I like the 2 syllable snappiness of our current names. Buy I'd like it to be obviously related.

Any ideas?

Disclaimer this is not for a baby but a pet rat but i didn't know where to put it!

Grin. Awwwwwww. That rats sooooooo cute.

These are my 2 original girls and we picked up Nova and the unnamed this morning.

No photos of those 2 yet as they are settling in.

Some great suggestions here. Gonna sit down with a cuppa later and have a proper read through. Thanks!

I was a bit worried until you revealed it was for a rat!

What about Titania, for Titan?

Stella is the most obvious.

Sterre is a Dutch name meaning star(s)

MissTakesOurMaid · 02/08/2017 20:58

Stella is gorgeous!
Estelle
Seren (Welsh for star)
Astrid - sounds spacey to me! Blush
Jupiter
Pandora (Pan for short - moon of Saturn!)
Alula (name of first twin star discovered)
Lyra
Twinkle

Galaxia4 · 02/08/2017 21:25

I would have gone for Stellar but I have negative associations with the name Stella.

I really like Seren.

OP posts:
Serenrose · 02/08/2017 21:31

Seren also means star (Welsh) but I didn't think about that when posting before, despite it being my user name! Haha.

Also, interesting fact - when I type Seren my phone autocorrects to Derek. So, how about Derek? Grin

Bella (Bellatrix)?
