Do you like short or long names? How about shortish names that are quite classic, like Emma, Anna or Kate? Or a Royal family type name like Elizabeth, Alice, Mary, Victoria, Charlotte, Anne, Catherine.
Do you prefer something more unusual?
Do you have any nice names in the family that you could use?
Are there any boys' names that you would have used if you were having a boy?
Do you have an unusual surname? Does your surname start with a vowel?

I'm in the same boat as you OP, not long left but have no clue on a name. I've got options I've noted down but I can't decide, it's a big decision Shock
These are the ones I've noted down:
Olivia
Eliza
Cassidy
Zelda
Rhiannon
Bonnie
Sansa
Rochelle

Do like other options but they don't go with my last name which is annoying. My last name begins with A and I really like the first name Ava but to me, that just seems weird.
Atm my favourites are Olivia and Rhiannon but Olivia is very very common and Rhiannon is one of those names that you love or hate. Sansa and Zelda are the more unusual names but I like them quite a lot. So I'm stuck right now lol
