I have a daughter called Savannah we are expecting another little girl later this year and we are struggling with a name that my husband and I can agree on 😩

We like Ari but not convinced any suggestions would be great thanks 😊

Some of the names suggested are a bit popular and others a bit not-yer-average-lawyer-name. Is Romany politically correct? Destiny? Hmm.

Sorrel is a weed.

Lol, and Savannah is a lawyer name, xd?

Elizabeth, Rebecca, Rachel, Sarah, Victoria are safe bets.

A lot of 'unusual' names become fashionable and everyone has the same name.

I'd either for for a classic like Elizabeth. There will likely be another 1, maybe 2 in her year but not loads of them. It also has tons of shorten forms so even if there are 6 they can all have a different nickname.

Failing that, according to the ONS data only 65 girls were registered with my daughter's name in 2019. As we live in England I doubt there will be another Cerys in her class.

Savannah isn't necessarily a lawyer name and what are the chances of DD1 and DD2 becoming lawyers :).

Have you ever considered Deserta or Dessertie

It was just an example the lawyer thing, they can be whatever they want to be ... I personally think Savannah is a VERY good lawyer name though 😜 thank you all for your suggestions!

We are also looking for a 'non popular' girls name. This is a great list, i've written some down to show DP later. Good luck on picking one OP Smile
