Hi,

Does anyone have any suggestions for any sweet old fashioned name for a little girl?

We are trying to get some ideas for names for our baby girl due late November.

Thanks! 🤩❤️

Lots that I thought of but haven’t seen an Elspeth/ Elsbeth. I also like Pearl & Betty.

Another vote for Melissa. It's not old-fashioned though.

What about minnie or whinnie?

I really like the name Melissa. She was a nymph in Greek mythology, and the name means honey bee.

I also like Francesca and Margot.
