Hi

Desperately looking for name suggestions for dd2. We used the only girls name we loved for dd1 who is called Ayla.

We like unusual and ideally Scottish or Nordic but doesn't have to be. Not really into the greek style names which usually crop up on unusual name websites.

Any suggestions gratefully received! Thanks

As a Highlander Ayala and Skye wouldn’t go so well as siblings think ‘isle a skye’ Grin

My absolute fave Scottish girls name is Sorcha, it’s just so beautiful.
