Please can I have your suggestions for girls names.
Would like something not very popular. Not really into granny chic names. Last name is Fitzpatrick but we are not Irish 🤣.

You haven't said what types of names you like, bit these names were only used three times for girls in 2019 so all are nit popular. Picked from a wide selection of backgrounds so one of them might be what you're looking for.

Not sure by what you mean by not that popular OP, but a lot of the names suggested are what I would consider very popular. If you combine the three main spellings of Darcy, it's 32 in the charts. Thea is 46th. Grace is 8th. From your own list Phoebe is 22nd. All of these would be far too popular for me.

This website is a great resource if popularity is a concern. It not only gives you the most recent ONS data, but plots on a graph how the name's popularity has changed over the last 25ish years. Personally, I'd check any name suggested here that you are considering, because often a poster's definition of 'not too popular' doesn't match mine.

@toastofthetown that's a great website and yes I'm looking at some of these suggestions and thinking they are quite popular at the moment!

Alba Fitzpatrick is lovely, fresh and rarely used. Go with that. Maybe Alba Romilly Fitzpatrick. Phoebe is very pretty but there are lots and lots of them so doesn't tick your unusual box. I like the idea of Bronte (I knew one years ago) but it sounds a bit clunky and conjures up Brontosauras in my mind.
