Girls names - help!

[justtheonethen]

Looking for some inspiration of any names we might have missed.
Due in March and can't seem to agree on "the one".

Here is the list we have so far-

Iris - my total favourite, DH not keen
Isobel- we both like but don't love (Scottish spelling is the one we like as DH part scot). Also Isabelle spelling/Isabella v popular.
Fearne- both like
Violet- both like
Agnes- both really like but we both have A initials so feels a bit wrong/we don't want an A name. And maybe too old lady.
Lily- really like but far too popular.

So any others that leap out at you? Thank you!

I've got a childhood friend called Fern and she's always loved that she's never met another - I like both spellings.

How about Heather or Eleanor or Jasmine or Martha?

I like Isabelle as the spelling for Isobel. I quite like Harriet but I know this isn't on your list.

(In order of preference)

Violet- Strong contender for my daughters name (due May) DP has his heart set on it. Odd how you added this just after I made a thread asking if it was popular! haha great minds think alike ;)
Iris - Love! Would possibly be on our list but haven't pitched it to DP.
Isobel- I like this spelling
Fearne- I really like it, my DP isn't so keen
Agnes- Not a mega fan but these names are making a comeback. Also a very good Glass Animals song.
Lily- Nice but popular. I know so many Lily's from 0-17. Also aren't lilies what you traditionally have at funerals?

You've got a good list there so I don't want to add any more names until you whittle it down a little. Good luck! :)

Mancunicorn great minds! Would love to know the rest of your list as we have such similar taste!

Thank you to everyone, so many great names to consider

I have an Ishbel in my family - it's a pretty name

Or how about Heather?

I was going to suggest Eilidh (Ay-lay) as Scottish, but as it has already been suggested here are more Scottish/ Gaelic girl baby names.

I love Lily and Violet from your list.

Some suggestions:

• Ailsa (for something Scottish)
• Dahlia (less popular flower name)
• Agatha (might be slightly less "old lady")
• Emilia
• Daphne (another less popular floral name)
• Aster (again, a less popular floral name)
• Estelle
• Eleanor / Elinor
• Flora
• Hera (Greek Queen of the Gods)
• Freya (Norse Goddess)
• Juliet
• Phoebe
• Josephine (could shorten to Posy)
• Tabitha

Also adore Violet, know an utterly adorable 2 year old Violet and its so gorgeous on a young girl/graceful on older woman.

I love Agnes, Violet and Fern!

Ishbel
Ismay
Xanthe
Greta
Frida
Pearl

I love Iris and Agnes. Then Isobel. Fearne is a surname to me. Not keen on Violet.

Violet and as someone else said.. Iona is nice if Your DH is Scottish!

Love Agnes (dh foiled me for dd1, and her name is too similar for us to use it!).

Isobel is nice, but ishbel is a lot nicer.

Really dislike violet as name, I would always feel that my dd would be one pushing incident of being called violent for the rest of her school days....

Violet- beautiful, graceful but still has a fun energy about it. I think of the lovely flower- so far removed from the term "violent"- millions of names could sound like another term if you removed/added a letter, my word dont let that stop you.

Really like your list Op.

My faves are Iris, Agnes, Lily and Violet.
I quite like Isobel, but hate Isabella.

Other names that come to mind:
Martha
Esther
Sarah

Thank you all . You're all marvellous.

Have added quite a few to the list. Lots to mull over/try and win DH over with! I do think I really like Violet now. I'm certainly not put off by what it could sound like!
