Help us choose a name for our first daughter

[BeKindBeYou]

Gosh, we are finding it very tough to choose a name for our first daughter! We would like to hear your ideas on our thoughts:

Tilly
Callie
Indie
Poppy
Dottie
Lillia
Lottie

Didn’t Lillia used to be a brand of sanitary towels in the 1970s?

Tilly- ok
Callie- love
Indie- love
Poppy- Poppy Pants
Dottie- dog name
Lillia- too many Ls
Lottie- ok, bit cutesy

I'd register her as Elizabeth or Elspeth and always call her and refer to her as Lillia if that's your preference.

Dorothy NN Dot is great

Poppy or Indie are my favourites from your list. Personally I wouldn't use a name like Lottie or Tilly as full first names but rather Charlotte and Matilda so there are options as they get older.

Yes, it did. Lilia Whites they were called.

I'm sorry, OP, all your names are too cutesy for me. I don't mind Tilly, Dottie and Lottie as diminutives for Matilda, Dorothy and Charlotte, but not as standalone names.

The rest are a hard no. Especially Poppy, which sounds like a noise, not a name.

Not keen on any of the names, they seem to all be nick names

Dorothy , Matilda or Charlotte .

I know a Caroline nn Callie .

Tilly - Don’t like this, don’t think it ages we’ll unless you full name Matilda
Callie - Love this but I’m biased as I have one, her full name is Calliope though
Indie - absolutely love this
Poppy - lovely name
Dottie - same as Tillie, would he tempted to use Dorothy
Lillia - Love this
Lottie - Love this, and contrary to Poppy and Tillie find it works good for adults and children.

Callie and Poppy are lovely.

I wouldn't worry about names being too cutesy or be concerned about job interviews. Every other baby is called Albie/Teddy/Lily/Evie at the moment, cute names will be the norm when these little ones are having job interviews! Quite a dated view I think.

Don’t like any I’m afraid, most sound like nicknames.

Lillia or Callie
