If you had a daughter tomorrow, what would you name her?

So I found out today at 20 week scan it’s a GIRL! First baby but I have 4 brothers and DH has 2 (boys seem to run in family), skull and nub theory suggested boy and the wedding ring thing swung in circles. So I just assumed it was a boy stupidly. Anyway I’m over the moon of course but I have no idea whatsoever of names. I found girl names really hard. We had the boy name picked out so now I’m stuck.

I really love the name Everly Blush but realise it’s not MN approved so really want to hear your favourite names.

TIA

Maria, Mariela, Meriel, probably an "M" name, I just like "M" names at the moment :)

Everley sounds like a boys’ name to me but I may be influenced by the Everley brothers that I grew up listening to. Also a surname obviously.

Benjispruce · 01/08/2019 20:40

Mariela is lovely chik

ThighsRelief · 01/08/2019 20:41

Mairi
Jane
Kate

Love Everly!

I'd probably choose Tallulah or Juno. Neither would be liked by DH but as this baby is imaginary, I don't need him to like the name.

Greta ( not approved by DH sadly)
Elsa
Lisette

I also think Everly is a lovely name, and yes you should go for it if you love it. Everyone has different tastes, so whatever name you choose, you will not have everyone on board. (It's all about personal preference).

Avery
