Help to find a scandi girls name

[Arcticlife]

Hoping for some inspiration for slightly more unusual girl names. DD2 due in autumn, currently living in Norway (DH is norwegian) but family in UK, so names need to kind of work in both norwegian and english.

I love longer more feminine sounding names, DD1 is Pernille (pronounced 'per-nil-leh').

Currently toying with:
Frida
Dahlia
Arianna
Linnea

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

I lived in Finland and looked after a little girl called Mitra with the middle name of Sinikka.

I've always loved the sound of Linnea - wish I had Scandi heritage! But Dahlia and Frida are pretty too (bear in mind Dahlia is usually "Day -lia" in the UK, not sure about in Norway?) . Elin or Kristen maybe?

I've never heard anyone say Day-lia

Thora

Tekla
Adelia
Sigrun
Brigitta

All names from the Swedish Finn side of my family.

Martha (like the Princess)

Thanks everyone, I feel a bit more confident about using Linnea now. But also some lovely alternatives to consider as well.

Super helpful!!

Etta? No idea if it's actually scandi but it feels scandi 😂

I've never heard anyone say Day-lia

Day-lia is the common British pronunciation of the flower of the same name, so most Brits will also pronounce the name this way too imo - but it is a relatively uncommon name here so I'm sure people would accept "Dah -lia" instead once corrected.

Lumi :)

@torchh, the flower dahlia is pronounced daylia, as pp. The flower camellia is said as cam-eel-ya, and fuchsia as fewsha. That's English for you.

Saga of course

Maren
Astrid
Inga
Ingrid

Vibeke
Silke
Hanna
Vendela
Annika
Stina
Merete
Lisbet

I’m another one mentioning Annika , have a lovely Norwegian friend with that name .
Also know a Liv, a Birgit and Heidi ( the latter also Norwegian)

Sigrid
Anitra
Benedikte

Frida - frumpy yet manly, ungainly, utterly hideous.
Dahlia - not a fan of flower names.
Arianna - areola
Linnea - pronunciation issues.

Bjorli
Besta
Eneryda
Baahlons
Klippan
Kallax

Lena

Marte
Ingrid
Freya

Helle
Sofie
Tine
Trine
Elsebet / Elsie nn ?!

Linea is an own brand for House of Fraser, they pedal it as a brand, so maybe not that well known? Something to consider.

Really interesting, on pronunciation differences, I went to school with a Signe and said it was said Seen a .. that's as far as I remember, maybe we never nailed the correct way to say it ?

Bryndis
Tove
Sigrid
Ana

I absolutely love the Finnish name Suvi - I had all boys so didn't get to use it.

So many beautiful names on here
