N names

I've realised quite like the idea of names either beginning with N, or with a strong N sound (like Anna, Andrew, etc - though not necessarily those exact names!) as I think these would flow well with our surname. (Begins McN....)

I typically like classic but slightly quirky names - (Rory, Lucia,) but would try and steer clear of anything super popular.

Any suggestions for us to consider, for both boys and girls?

My favourite N names that are not too common would be
Nova for a girl
Nolan for a boy

Leonore is a beautiful name if you like French names. Anneline too.

RickOShay · 16/07/2020 17:18

Natalia is beautiful and underused I think.

RickOShay · 16/07/2020 17:19

Also love Conrad.

Off tangent, but I know a couple of Mark McSomethings and I like the alliteration.

I know a Ngaire, the English spelling is Nyree. Not popular at all, but easily spelt and pronounced with that spelling.

I came across the name Nulifer in a show I've been watching so thought I'd throw it out there.
