Girls’ names with ‘O’ sounds

[Cottonia]

I posted the Fiona thread a few days ago - dh and I were looking for names that we could get the nickname Fifi from. We’ve since decided to drop Fifi, as it’s unlikely it would stick past the age of 5/6, so seems silly to base our choice solely on that.

We’ve realised that we like quite vowelly names, and I especially like names with a long ‘O’ sound in them (as in ‘bone’).

Our current shortlist is:
Fiona
Naomi
Ramona
Rowan
Rowena
Ophelia (more dh’s idea than mine)

Middle name likely to be Elizabeth for family reasons.

Any thoughts on these ‘O’ names? Are there any other vowelly names that we’ve missed?

How do you feel about Paloma? It’s one of my favourites.

I also love Naomi and Ophelia, from your list (both are on mine too)

Robina
Olga
Ola
Olwen

Olwen was on my list :)

Romy
Leonie

How do you feel about Paloma? It’s one of my favourites.

Love it!
