We are expecting our first baby girl in December and struggling with names at the moment! We like a few but they're all really popular at the moment I think.
Does anyone have any suggestions similar to the following that would go with the surname grey? cuts out any colour related names :(!

Sophia
Mia
Hollie
Keira

Anything that doesn't start with g or end with 'ay' sound would probably go fine, its a nice surname.

laramara · 02/08/2018 15:50

Probably a 3 syllable name :

Harriet
Annika
Rosalind
Antonia

PerfectlyPosed · 02/08/2018 15:52

Mia Grey is lovely imo.
Most two+ syllable girl's names would probably work:) it's a nice surname.

Matilda, Alice, Beatrix/ce, Marianne, Marina, Claudia, Emily, Philippa, Clara, Iona, Cora, Juno, Carla, Antonia, Allegra, Felicity, Miranda, Alexandra, Anna, Annabel, Ginny, Victoria, Genevieve, Georgina (I personally rather like alliterations...)

If you're concerned about popularity, I'd suggest using names.darkgreener.com (well, if you're in England or Wales).

Matilda

kenandbarbie · 02/08/2018 18:22

You're lucky with that surname. It allows for more fancy sounding first names than most do.

Harken53rig · 02/08/2018 18:22

Genevieve

MrsSnootyPants2018 · 02/08/2018 18:24

Charlotte Gray
Amelia Gray
Elizabeth Gray
Annabelle Gray
Victoria Gray
Catalina Gray

I think it flows better with a longer name.

TatianaLarina · 02/08/2018 18:26

Agnes Gray

Reading the list, names ending in a go very well with Gray.
