I need a girls name to match the Surname 'Wait'. I quite like unusual names... any suggestions welcome 😀

Definitely not Nancy, would be terrible surname first on the school register.

I actually think you’ve got a huge amount of choice with that surname. I think three syllables sound particularly nice with it.

Probably not your taste but these all sound great to me:
Tabitha Wait
Natasha Wait
Meredith Wait
Annabel Wait

Put me out of my misery, I've said it over and over and don't get it!

MikeUniformMike · 26/02/2020 20:43

Middle name doesn't have to be Catherine - Constance, Cicely, Charlotte, Caroline, ... would be fine.

MikeUniformMike · 26/02/2020 21:02

@Notso, There's a missing full stop Grin

School registers are usually Surname, Firstname

Meredith

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 26/02/2020 21:38

What's wrong with Nancy. I don't like it personally, but Its not a troublesome name, is it. Confused

@Notso
Wait Nancy : wait and see.
I assume this is the issue ?

@Wintersun13
Thank you!

PenguinBarnotBird · 27/02/2020 07:34

I think your surname goes really well with more classic/old-fashioned first names -
Eliza Wait
Susanna Wait

MikeUniformMike · 27/02/2020 08:17

Teresa nn. Teri

MikeUniformMike · 27/02/2020 09:06

Another 2 for the register:
Tia
Rose

SoupDragon · 27/02/2020 09:21

Why do you feel the need to post stupid names on these threads?

MikeUniformMike · 27/02/2020 09:30

Because it might make the OP think twice before giving a child a silly name.
Rose isn't a stupid name, neither is Tia but Wait, Rose and Wait, Tia are silly.

In the 1960s, Mr and Mrs King thought nothing of naming their son Ian. At school, Ian had the I changed to W relentlessly.
