Don't love girls names...

[FaithHopeandGlory]

So, we have whittled our list for boys down to: Rupert, Felix, Jasper, Jago, Edward, Austen and I've snuck Quentin in there.

We are having so much trouble even liking girl names along a similar vein. We'd like them to be recognisable names but ideally not popular as like most, we'd like them to be the only one in their class. No names feel right to us at the moment and I already feel like I've read a million and one names sites, forums and lists but can't find the one.

I'm hoping you lovely lot can help?!

And a few gaelic ones, all Scottish:
Morven
Ishbel
Eilidh
Elspeth

Mostly not gaelic, mostly simply local versions of international names:

Morven - yes this one is gaelic. It means 'big mountain'
Ishbel - Scots (not gaelic) version of a pan-European name, Isabel
Eilidh - essentially Ellie/Helen with a west-coast accent
Elspeth- Scots (not gaelic) version of international name Elizabeth.

They are all perfectly nice names , please don't get me wrong.

I think Juno, Etta and Penelope have a similar feel to your boys names.

Forgot Phillipa/Pippa too.

Seriously if you want them to be the only one in the class with the name then don,t schoose, Amelia, Isabelle, Mathilda, or Violet or sophie. These are pretty names but also quite a few of them at present.

I like Elizabeth as you have so many options to shorten if you want.

Orla, Sophie, Laurel, Elaine, Isolde, Ellen, Jaida, Michelle, Katie, Willa, Penrose, Lucia, Wendy, Sylvia, Zorina, Bethany, Dove, Freya, Betsy, Yara, Harper, Scarlett, Nancy, Lumi, Aubrey, Leilani, Bridget, Anthea, Arlene, Enid, Sasha, Zana, Mabel, Heloise, Rubina, Allison, Leticia, Ida, Lavinia, Sara, Emme, Mirena.

Thank you all so much! I adore Josephine, Penelope and Philippa but DH has shot those down too. Yes definitely the type of names we are after!

Does anyone else find girls names this hard?!?! Yikes!

Oh I also love Claudia! Will swing that by him too!
