Hi, we have started thinking about names for baby number 3 and have pretty much settled on a boys name but struggling for girls name. We like short names and would prefer it to start with an A. So far we have:
Anya
Adette
Analia - I know this isn’t short but we love it and she would possible go by Ana (my sisters name though) or Lia

We like names that aren’t too common but not unheard of either

TIA

Like Anya but think Anouk or Annika would be great. I also like Anisa but my OH vetoed it because he thought the Anis sound was too much like Anus!

I taught a girl called Ara, which was pretty.

@eatsleepbreastfeedrepeat I defs wouldn’t use Analia as it starts with the word Anal as others have said. Aavie, Aphra?
