Wilder/Wylder/Clover/Mavis/Saylor - baby girl name help please!!

[WorkingMomofFour]

We are expecting baby girl #3 - which will be baby #4 and are super stuck on names! Other kids names: Brighton Amalee, Turner Brandon, Rixley Elizabeth.

I have the name Wilder/Wylder really stuck in my head for her but want to hear feedback on thoughts for using that name for a little girl.

Also really like Clover - my bday is st. Patricks day and she would be lucky #4. But, not sure the name works yet or not?!

Mavis and Saylor are our safer options, but I keep coming back to Wilder/Wylder.

Appreciate any and all feedback!!! We would probably do Marie for middle name or something simple and more feminine. Thanks everyone!!!

Clover is a cow's name

Saylor is awful and cheesy.

Mavis is an old sour faced woman.

Wylder ( not Wilder) is ok,I quite like it but not quite to my taste (but looking at your other kids names I doubt we have the same taste! )

It would be boring if we all liked the same things though!

Mavis is the only one that is an actual name.

Well you’ve gone pretty out there with the others so you can hardly call her Clare or Emma or something I suppose.

Turner Brandon? I’m wondering if you live in Utah or somewhere where those kinds of names are more usual.

But I don’t like any of those suggestions at all. Saylor is awful. Clover is fine but a rabbit name.

I love Clover. It was on my list for dd but doesn’t go with our surname.

Congrats on baby number 4! I really love Clover, I think it works great on a little girl and an adult.

You can't have Brighton, Turner, Rixley and Mavis! Mavis is an old granny name and the others very modern/American/surname style. Wilder and Sailor the only ones that really go with the others (these spellings, hate the other spellings). I love Clover but again, not sure it goes.

I like Clover, and Mavis (which means song thrush). Mavis would naturally follow on from some of the other 'granny' names which have made a comeback, such as Elsie, Agnes and Millie.

I don't like Saylor, but then I don't really like names that sound like an occupation. Wilder is OK, or how about Willow?

Mavis Willow
Clover Marie
Wilder Seren

Clover or Wilder would go best.
Mavis is an ugly name although once a lovely baby is born named Mavis it could grow on me.
Definitely not that spelling of Saylor.

Willow is a good suggestion

We are miles apart in our taste in names, but the only one of the current options I like is Clover.

Wilder or Clover are cool, and go with your other kids names.

To me Mavis is very much a grandma name so I dont think it fits with your other kids names, and Saylor is too out there for me but I think a couple of celebs have used it for their daughters so it's certainly a known name.

Saylor will get tons of "oi oi saylor" jokes

What shall we do with the drunken saylor etc etc.

I really like Clover. It reminds me of the classic books "What Katy did" - she's Katy's sister, a pretty, clever, fun, and happy character. A great namesake.

I really like Wilder.
Mavis is too old lady.
Clover lives in a field with her fellow cow friend Daisy.
Saylor is ok.

What’s a “Saylor”?

Not one i’d use myself but I like Wilder and think it’s goes well with your other names. Much prefer it to Sailor. Clover is quite nice too and I like the meaning behind it.

Truly awful names...they're for life you know.

Mavis is the only one that is an actual name.

the others sound ridiculous. clover is the name of a cow. and mavis is not particularly appealing. can't you pick something pleasant. if you want to give them a surname, why not higginbottom or shufflewick.

Sorry Op they all seem a bit trying too hard for me.

And I know an adorable dog called Clover but don't think a very nice name for a child.

Wilder/Wylder - sorry but even with the alternate spelling this sounds like a comparative adjective and I think it would be too difficult to live with.

Clover - ought to be nice, but widely seen as bovine

Mavis - OK

Saylor - 'hello sailor' jokes will wear thin. I would swerve this one (more so even than Wilder)

Love all your names apart from Mavis.
Such an old women's name,it's not nice in any shape or form.

what about Wilde? that is a girls name and pretty close to yours. Or Sawyer?

That's a nasty ageist comment about Mavis. Old doesn't necessarily mean sour-faced.

I'm afraid I don't much take to any of those names, OP, but Clover is probably the best one. I like your reasons for thinking of it.

I love Clover and Saylor. I think Wilder could work on a girl. I prefer that spelling though, Wylder looks made up.

I’m guessing the OP’s American, which could explain why some of the names sound a bit different to British ears?
