I'm seriously struggling with girls names!
Anything I like, OH doesn't. There's a few he likes, but I'm not keen on. Neither of us have a "special" name, or a name we absoloutely love. Help!!!

Our sons name is George, and last name begins with K, so I don't want any "matching" names, so no G or K names preferably.

I like Belle as a middle name, but not a first name.

Our list of definite no's, as these are either recent family baby names, or both, or one of us just doesn't like at all:
Delilah
Ren
Quinn
Everly
Harper
Willow
Mila
Myah

Our POSSIBLE names:
Daisy (I like)
Edie (both like)
Nora (OH likes)
Bonnie(both like) (would be "matching" with middle name, but that's OK, just don't want a KK or another GK)
Iyra (I like)
Indy (I like)

any other suggestions?? Help a mama out please!

I love Lyra! Lyra Belle sounds beautiful together. Only name I don't like on your list is Nora.

Eden, Lila, Rosie, Scarlet, Ivory, Audrey

@tenthousandspoons yeah I'm not overly fond on the Bonnie Belle, I think if we did decide to choose Bonnie I'd definitely look at another middle name!

@BinnynClued I'm the same. The girl names I had picked for George felt like his names sort of thing, so we had a new girls names (Jennifer and Ava if george was a girl if that's any help)

George is a lovely name. I’d probably be looking for something that had a bit of cultural history to go with it - if I was called something just made up like Indy and my brother was George I would feel shortchanged

Of your list Edith nn Edie is great, goes well with George. Bonnie great too and goes w George - but only as a nn for Isabelle, Annabel etc (would that work - if you like Belle?). Lyra is lovely - but a lot of Lyra/Lena/Lara/Leila/Lila/Lolas about abf they do all blur into one. Daisy is sweet but a bit twee. Nora I just don’t personally like.

Clara, Stella, Esther, Isla, Xanthe, Zoe, Phoebe, Emma, Adela, Florence, might be alternatives

Edie Belle yes (I love Edie), Bonnie Belle, nope, sorry!
