Haven’t heard a single girls name I like, please help!

[HotMessMama]

I’m 27wks pregnant with baby number 2, we were unable to find out the sex at our 20wk scan and were toying with the idea of booking a private one to find out. Of course now due to lockdown that is not possible so it looks like we will be having a surprise

We have a name for a boy but cannot find a single girls name, I don’t like anything too popular, such as Lily or Isla, and prefer one or two syllable names. To give you an idea of our taste 3yr old DS is called Rex and if he has a brother his name will be Rudy*

Please inundate me with suggestions x

*baby’s name does not have to begin with R that was purely coincidence

Cora
June
Dinah
Iris
Tara

Rudy is my favourite boys name so hopefully we have some similar taste. Here are the girls names I like:

Greta
Marley (boys name maybe)
Willa
Sadie
Edith / Edie
Margaret /Maggie
Clementine/ Clemmie
Roxanne/Roxanna/Rosanne
Pearl
Delilah
Ottilie /Ottie
Cora
Eliza
River
Winter
Jemima
Holly
Cleo
Mabel
Peggy
Martha
Margot
Wren

We had names ready for DD1, but couldn’t agree on anything for DD2. We waited until we met her and tried out a few ideas, then something totally unexpected came to us when she was 4 days old and we’d got to know her a bit. Thirteen and a half years later, it’s turned out to be perfect for her.

Juno or Maeve?

I quite like Fanny.

Some short Girls names I like are

Lyra
Luna
Willow
Meadow

Oooo my name has been suggested! My name is never mentioned! Can't get a cup, a badge, a pen with my name on. Much disappointment was had as a child in gift shops.

😂

I think Nancy goes well with Rex. Or Nina. Or hundreds of others I suppose.

Is Fancy a name? I like Fancy.

Fern, Hazel, Tamsin, Cassia, Hebe, Sasha.

The only Rex I know has a sister named Erica, which has pretty much the same meaning!

Rex and Rosa/Rosie
Rex and Amber

No, Fancy is not a name.

I would strongly advise against calling a child Fanny. Yeah yeah I know the bullies will find anything you shouldn't bow to bullying peer pressure but still.

Berenice
Cheryl
Gwendolyn

Fancy is a name. And there’s a great song about Fancy. I’m trying to persuade one of my daughters to use the name.

Jessie? Olive?

Do you prefer something a little less unused?

What made you decide the boys names you have?

Have any of these been any good @HotMessMama
