What would you call your daughter

[Lumie123]

What did you call your daughter or what would you call your daughter?
After some ideas for my own list.

[SE13Mummy]

Names on the shortlist that we didn't use:
Bethany
Elinor
Felicity
Keziah

The names we chose were in the top 100 for England at the time, one has risen in popularity more than the other.

[WildCherryBlossom]

Definitely no more children for me and to name my actual children could be outing but I think the girls' name that got away is probably Melissa. I love it's soft sounds and the honey bee associations in Greek mythology. Middle name would be Shakespearean.

[Fifthtimelucky]

My favourite names are all classics: some currently very popular, others less so. Too 20 are probably these (which include the names I picked for my daughters)

Caroline
Victoria
Elizabeth
Charlotte
Catherine
Sarah
Emily
Helen(a)
Rebecca
Olivia

[Pipandmum]

On our list was:
Sienna
Scarlett
Zoe
Helena
Ava
Didn't go with any of these but I like them all, specially the last two.

[MamaDane]

Emilia
Solveig
Thora
Iben
Ember
Fenja

[IckleBear]

Maren
Violet
Tess
Eliza

[Russiandolleyes]

Eloise
Hazel

I like Willow for another. No more DC for me, so I might get a cat.

[Teacher1995]

Always liked P names for a girl. My list is

Piper
Penny
Paisley

I also love Indigo, Delilah and Mabel too

[Doordine]

Matilda

[Fanciedachange1]

When I was younger (around 13-14) i came up with a name that I loved and decided it would definitely be used in the future. I had never heard it before and didn’t even know how to spell it, until one day I was off school sick and watching This Morning (as you do!) there was a girl on there who was doing gymnastics and she had the name I invented.

Liarna was how it was spelt on TV but I’m not keen on how it looks. It was pronounced Lee-are-ner

I have still never met anyone irl with that name.

Other names I like are Laurel (current fav) and Thea

I also like Lydia, although I still see that as more of a middle aged name.

[MojoJojo71]

Genevieve
Madeleine
Emmeline
Felicity
Verity
Clementine
Clemency
Hermione
Antigone
Constance

[17caterpillars1mouse]

I have two dds but won't list them as they are quiet uncommon names (there were 10 born the same year as Dd1 with her name)

However if I were to have a third daughter my shortlist would definitely be:

Jocelyn
Madeline /Madeleine
Olive
Bryony

[Fifthtimelucky]

Whoops, meant to say 'top 10' in my last post, but as I said 20, here are some more of my favourites:

Isobel
Eleanor
Alice
Lucy
Rosamund/Rose
Julia
Sylvia
Diana
Stephanie
Irene (but only when pronounced with 3 syllables)

[KittCat]

Hattie
Tabitha
Arietty

[Proudpeacock]

DS would have been Rosa if he had been a girl.

[Purplephonecover]

Violet

[Devlesko]

Rose

My only regret in life, not choosing this.

[MaidenMotherCrone]

Phillipa
Felicity
Hebe

[CaffiSaliMali]

Esyllt is my favourite girls name, but it won't work in England due to the letter Ll. So - Alys, Eira, Mari, Morwenna or Tesni.

Or

Lyra, Rosa or Juliet.

I also really like Louisa but have a 'no feminine version of a male name' rule so can't use it.

[nevergoingoutagain]

Frances (Frankie)
Esther
Josephine (Josie)
Also on my lists were
Charlotte (lottie)
Constance (Connie)
Helena
