DC2 was born early this morning and it’s a girl, but we only had a boys name picked out. DD1 name came to us so quickly and easily and was chosen at 10 weeks but we have no names. DD 1 is called Callie. Here are some girls names on our list but none of them are jumping out at us:
Gemma
Tia
Briar
Hazel
Tara
Nina

We live in a small village so don’t want her to have the same name as anyone close in age to her. Please rate the names above and suggest more names.

Comgratulations! I really like Briar!

Nutkin123 · 20/12/2019 20:20

I think Hazel is a beautiful name!

MrsNoMopp · 20/12/2019 21:12

Leah Felicity.

I love Anastasia but it doesn't flow with most of your first names.

Crunchymum · 20/12/2019 21:28

Robyn Felicity for me.

Oops sorry I forgot to rate-

I like briar best out of your choice for a name.

All the very best op xx

I love Tara and Briar. Tia was on our list until we went to a restaurant when I was heavily pregnant and the Spanish waiter who we got chatting to about names told us it means Aunt in Spanish, we now have a dog called Tia, DD got a totally different name 😂

Riv12345 I love raine but DH hates it, he said I could use it as a middle name but dd1 has a long middle name so I thought it would be odd if I then used a really short middle name

I love Raine and I really don't think it matters how long it is compared to your other child's middle name. No one is ever going to compare the lengths of their middle names!!

FizzyGreenWater · 21/12/2019 12:14

Oh goodness Raine is horrid, sorry.

HalfBloodPrincess · 21/12/2019 14:12

I like Tara best. Also Zara

FizzyGreenWater · 21/12/2019 15:07

Oh Zara is lovely - goes with Callie too?

TatianaLarina · 21/12/2019 15:20

Love Briar - much more interesting than Tara.

Twisique · 21/12/2019 17:56

Riv12345 · 21/12/2019 19:36

Let us know what you decide on

MerryMarigold · 21/12/2019 21:35

How about Merida? If she had red, curly hair. I do like Briar though.

Currently the name we have chosen is Briar. The only name I didn’t include on my list is Logan because dh just doesn’t like it for a girl, hopefully if we have another daughter in the future I might be able to convince him.

Yay! Great choice OP.

Rumbelow · 22/12/2019 01:13

Briar is lovely, congratulations!

OddshoesOddsocks · 22/12/2019 02:24

Briar is very pretty, I love Hazel too. Congratulations!

Im due our 3rd girl in April and she will probably be Connie. We also have Margot, Astrid and Claudia on the list but I think Connie is the winner Smile

Riv12345 · 22/12/2019 06:26

That is lovely op wishing you all the best.
