Wyatt ....

I'm set on Wyatt for a girl. I know it's not to everyone's taste but I'm in love. However, I'm stuck for a feminine middle name that works. Our surname is like Wilson if that helps?

So far I only have Wyatt Lydia Wilson but I can't think of alternatives. Can anyone suggest feminine middle names that work?

You've got to think she'll be stuck with a boy's name for the rest of her life. She might not thank you for it.

It's not unisex. It's very, very masculine, brings to mind an ageing cowboy (is this Wyatt Earp?) I know that Hollywood couple used it, but they were idiots (and unkind to their baby girl) to do so.

Please don't do that to your poor daughter.

OP hasn't asked for opinions on her chosen name, just ideas for a middle name.

Wyatt Rose is cute

Would you hyphenate, or is it strictly middle name?

How about:

Wyatt Summer
Wyatt Ellie
Wyatt Emma
Wyatt Felicity
Wyatt Ruby
Wyatt Grace
Wyatt Eve
Wyatt Sophia
Wyatt Joy
Wyatt Jasmine

It's terrible. For a boy or a girl, especially a girl. Such a horrible sound to it.

PlateOfBiscuits · 25/03/2018 08:25

Are you trying to feminise it with a middle name?

Just bear in mind that her middle name will never get used in her day to day life.

PlateOfBiscuits · 25/03/2018 08:26

That said, if that’s the name you want then go for it. It would fit in where I live. Just make sure that you know most people will imagine a man before they meet her.

Viviennemary · 25/03/2018 19:27

It's absolutely dire. Poor child.

AnyaMoondial · 25/03/2018 20:42

I like it. I think Lucinda works as a middle.

Oysterbabe · 25/03/2018 20:47

So you wanted it for a boy, didn't have one so have decided to use it regardless. Don't you think that's a bit selfish? If you must, I'd use it as a middlename and give your daughter a girl's first name.

buttercup54321 · 25/03/2018 20:48

awful. especially with your surname. Wyatt Wilson. it looks like a firm of solicitors or estate agent. At best it just looks very masculine. Suppose you could stick with the Ws and have Wendy or Wilma as a middle name. But there are so many more attractive girls names.

TheJoyOfSox · 25/03/2018 20:55

I have to agree with @buttercup54321. Dreadful combination of names for a girl.
I really can’t help you.

villainousbroodmare · 25/03/2018 21:00

It's woeful. No middle name will help. Sorry.

wellalrighty · 25/03/2018 21:03

Wyatt Rose feels an odd combination of styles - they are very different and seem to jar against each other.

HoratioNightboy · 25/03/2018 21:40

Wyatt Marie
Wyatt Amelia
Wyatt Belinda
Wyatt Amanda

NameyMcChangeRae · 26/03/2018 20:33

Its dire, and I would assume you’d blatantly copied Ashton Kitcher and Mila Kunis.

What about Mila?!
Or, if you have to copy a celebrity, what about George clooneys twin names?

Wyattsalt · 29/08/2018 14:36

I'm interested too know what you ended up calling your daughter?
Wyatt is my last name I gave to my son as middle name and debating weather to give it to my daughter due this year as a middle name too Smile

Flamingosnbears · 29/08/2018 17:03

Not for a girl.

halcyondays · 29/08/2018 17:05

It's a boy's name, Wyatt Earp. i'd not be happy about being called this as a girl.

Sambsam · 30/09/2018 13:57

Sorry, I know this is a bit old, but I just stumbled across it and was taken aback. I had a little girl one month before this post went up... Wyatt Lydia Wilson! Just wondering if you went with it in the end ?

Cookit · 30/09/2018 14:05

Would you have heard of it as a girls name if not for Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher?

MikeUniformMike · 30/09/2018 14:09

Use it as a middle name. It's a boy's name.

Sambsam · 30/09/2018 14:10

Maybe not directed at me, but as I named my girl Wyatt too, I’ve got to say I didn’t know Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis had a girl called Wyatt until I started googling the name at around 8 months pregnant. And by then I really loved it. And it seems just as silly to NOT use a name because a celebrity did, as it would be to only use the name because they did. That’s what worked for me.

Kithulu · 30/09/2018 14:14

Why not try Wynonna ....or Waverly instead Grin for a more feminine version of Wyatt (Earp)

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 30/09/2018 17:14

It's just terrible. An boring surname. Why would you do that to your daughter? And everyone will say you've copied Ashton Kutcher.
