Nova, Ezri, Mika?

[propse]

For a girl. Which one do you prefer?

Nova. Don't like the others, but I do like Nova. However when I was considering it DH vetoed it because of the car.

I really like Nova. I know a 2 year old with this name.
The car hasn’t been made for years!

Ezri/e

Mika is the pop singer who hat a hit with "Grace Kelly". Most definitely male.

Ezri looks like you were trying for Ezra, and spelled it wrong. Ezra is a boy's name.

Nova - champagne Supernova, the Vauxhall car, or "no va" in Spanish.

Those are 3 of my favorite name! My daughters name is a mix of a few of those lol.

I love Mika the most (pronounced mee-ka) but my friend who lives in France (she's not French though) is named that and was due at the same time as me so we were in touch a lot.. Therefore I didn't feel like I could use it. But like I said my daughters name is similar anyway.

Ezri was the name of the baby girl next to us in the postnatal ward. I've also met a baby Nova!!!

I know someone with baby Nova.

For a girl? None of these.... Nova at a push

Nova is the best of the three. It's not great though IMO.

Are they actually names? I don’t know any kids named any of them.

Of course if they fall outside of your own narrow range of experience then they basically don’t exist

These names all seem fairly inoffensive to me but I think they’re falling victim to the usual Mumsnet knee jerk ‘EWW I NEVER HEARD OF IT IS IT FORRIN’ reaction.

Nova is quite pretty but very much associated with the car. Mika is a really nice name imo. Ezri is very similar to Ezra and I think I’ve seen it before on a Turkish girl, spelled Esri. I like it.

I'm not a fan of Nova.

I love Mika, I think it's cute and spunky, and a little different. I also like Misha.

Ezri made me think of Ezra at first, it's not something I've heard before, but I actually think it sounds beautiful and would work for a little girl and a grown woman.
