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

What is it with the love for Margo? It's AWFUL! It's so ugly sounding and a name for a 70 year old rather than a lovely little girl!

Whoseagooddoggiethen · 04/08/2019 17:53

Millie.

Harriet or Imogen.

Dp says Manon.

bevelino · 04/08/2019 19:21

Evelyn rather than Everly.

Clawdy · 04/08/2019 19:26

Maria.

Sleepyhead11 · 04/08/2019 19:26

Although I love lots of the names on this thread, especially the ones like Artemis and Calliope. I wouldn't be brave enough though. I even find DPS name choice beautiful but not one for a kid bought up in our part of the UK. It's great in Wales or France though, where people can actually say it properly.

One of my close friends loves the name Thumbelina for a girl.

I hope she has a boy.
